Sinners Anonymous
She's seeking redemption. He's determined to ruin her.
My name is Rory Carter, and I do bad things.
I might smile like an angel, but underneath, my soul is far from clean.
Not even my weekly calls to the Sinners Anonymous hotline can change that.
Marrying the seventy-year-old head of the Cosa Nostra to save my father was the closest I've come to doing good.
And I was surviving - one lie, one smile, one silk dress at a time - until his nephew showed up uninvited.
Angelo "Vicious" Visconti. A beautiful monster with a sharper tongue than conscience. They say he went straight years ago, but I don't believe it.
Because Angelo is danger wrapped in desire - and when he looks at me, I can't tell if he wants to ruin me or save me.
Sinners Condemned
No good ever comes from a redhead in a stolen dress with her whole life packed at her feet.
I should've known Penny Price was trouble the moment smoke and sin followed her into my bar and she challenged me to a game.
I thought the only thing she stole was my watch. Little did I know, she also started a war.
Because the second her muddy boots stomped down the stairs of the club, my empire began to crack.
My cashmere charm is fraying. My gentleman's mask is slipping. My enemies can smell the weakness. Penny Price thinks she's dragging me to hell.
But she doesn't realise - hell's exactly where I belong.
After all, it's wonderfully warm among the flames…
A Whole Life
Andreas Egger knows every path and peak of his mountain valley, the source of his sustenance, his livelihood - his home.
Set in the mid-twentieth century and told with beauty and tenderness, Robert Seethaler's A Whole Life is a story of man's relationship with an ancient landscape, of the value of solitude, of the arrival of the modern world, and above all, of the moments, great and small, that make us who we are.

Jenže jak poznat, kdo ještě nepadl do spárů království Orient, jehož vliv se šíří rychleji než nákaza? Zatímco Vanda žádá o pomoc své kontakty napříč kontinentem, Tristan musí zesílit a naučit se plně ovládat své schopnosti dřív, než bude pozdě. Alechandra a Akir mezitím hledají nové útočiště, protože Ferdinand a jeho lidé jim jsou neustále v patách a touží po Alechandřině hlavě. Království Cidentalis je vlivem rostoucí moci Marcusovy rodiny donuceno k riskantním krokům. Aby odhalily skutečné záměry východního království, musejí Kristeen s Olivií proniknout do myslí nepřátelských čarodějů. Pravda, kterou objeví, ovlivní osud celého kontinentu.

The Charmed Library
With her signature blend of magical and heartfelt storytelling, USA TODAY bestselling author Jennifer Moorman returns with The Charmed Library, a love letter to libraries, favorite childhood stories, and readers who have fallen for fictional heroes. Like many other public libraries, the one in Blue Sky Valley, North Carolina, is a haven for readers. But it's also unlike any other. In this library, fictional characters step off the page into real life. Assistant librarian Stella Parker has no idea. Still reeling from her father's death and--more recently--a breakup, she hasn't noticed. All she knows is she's stuck in a job she's overqualified for and stumped about what to do with her life. Everything changes when she burns her beloved journal. Words matter to Stella. For as long as she can remember, she's seen them. Words appear--in varying colors and fonts--rising from surfaces, bouncing over objects, and even wiggling out of people. Words give her insight into emotions and untold stories. But the words change for Stella after she burns her journal. Suddenly they're demanding, urgent--and painful. Then Stella stumbles upon strange characters in the library after hours. One is an oddly familiar World War II soldier who introduces himself as Jack--Jack Mathis, the main character from her favorite book. A fictional hero and Stella's first crush. Standing in front of her in the flesh. Jack tells Stella about the magic hidden in the library. Skeptical, Stella rashly invites a villain to visit, and chaos ensues. As she discovers the importance of protecting the library's secret and gets to know the real Jack, words continue to appear. What are they trying to tell he? uch too quickly, Stella is faced with the reality that all stories must end, and magic comes at a price. The characters who visit the library can only stay for fourteen days. And Jack's time is almost up. A cozy, Hallmark-esque rom-com, The Charmed Library invites readers to escape to a world where words come alive and book boyfriends leap off the page.

Sarah Perry'Pulsing with life and lyricism.' Spectator'Fiercely exuberant.' Observer'Delightfully playful.' Andrew Miller'A truly astonishing thing.' George MonbiotA wondrous, elemental novel from 'a writer of show-stopping genius'. GuardianSHORTLISTED FOR THE GOLDSMITHS PRIZE, THE GORDON BURN PRIZE AND THE WINSTON GRAHAM PRIZELONGLISTED FOR THE CLIMATE FICTION PRIZE AND THE WALTER SCOTT PRIZE Helm is a ferocious, mischievous wind - a subject of folklore and wonder - who has blasted the sublime landscape of the Eden Valley since the very dawn of time. This is Helm's life story, formed from the chronicles of those the wind enchanted: the Neolithic tribe who tried to placate it, the Dark Age wizard priest who wanted to banish it, the Victorian steam engineer who attempted to capture it - and the farmer's daughter who fell in love. But now Dr Selima Sutar, surrounded by measuring instruments, alone in her observation hut, fears the end is nigh.
