Vicious: Sladká nenávisť


Pre mňa nie je len spomienkou. Je jazvou na duši. Nočnou morou, ktorá má jeho hlas. Jeho dotyk. Jeho meno. Vicious je brilantný právnik. Dedič impéria. Muž, pred ktorým sa všetci uklonia. A zároveň netvor, ktorý ničí všetko, čo nemôže vlastniť. Spoznali sme sa ako tínedžeri v prepychovom sídle Spencerovcov v Todos Santos, kde moji rodičia pracovali. Už vtedy ma priťahoval ako oheň – oslnivý, hypnotický... a smrteľne nebezpečný. Potom som začula temný rozhovor, o ktorom sa nik nemal dozvedieť. A zaplatila som zaň vyhnanstvom. Preňho som bola vždy tabu. Chudobné dievča s veľkými snami. Bývalá priateľka jeho kamaráta. Slabosť, ktorú si nemohol dovoliť. Lenže desať rokov zmenilo pravidlá hry. Keď sa znovu stretneme v New Yorku, už nie je tým chlapcom, ktorého som poznala. Je mocnejší. Bezohľadnejší. A odhodlaný získať ma späť. Mala by som ho nenávidieť. Lenže medzi nenávisťou a vášňou je hranica tenšia než vzdialenosť medzi našimi roztúženými perami. A tentoraz Vicious nikam neodchádza. Musím sa rozhodnúť: utekám pred ním... alebo rovno do jeho náručia?

Pretvárka za bránami Cloverton Hall


Podarí sa Olivii Brannonovej uspieť v nevšednom odvetví, ktoré bolo dosiaľ doménou mužov? Olivia Brannonová pracuje po otcovej smrti v starožitníctve svojho strýka. Keď dostane nečakanú ponuku od pani Miltonovej, vdovy po otcovom najvplyvnejšom klientovi, neváha a v nádeji na lepšiu budúcnosť prijme aj zvláštnu podmienku starej šľachtičnej: má sa zúčastniť na spoločenskom podujatí na panstve Cloverton Hall a predstierať, že je jej rodinná priateľka, zatiaľ čo nenápadne ocení jej zbierku. Lucas Avery zdedil po otcovi starožitníctvo, ktoré sa zo všetkých síl pokúša udržať nad vodou. Preto uvíta ponuku pána Wainbridgea, nového majiteľa Cloverton Hallu a synovca pani Miltonovej, aby v tajnosti ocenil rozsiahlu umeleckú zbierku zosnulého majiteľa panstva. Keď Olivia s Lucasom zistia, čo je za bránami Cloverton Hallu ich skutočnou úlohou, ich prekvapenie je obrovské. Ešte viac ich však prekvapí zistenie, že niektoré umelecké diela nie sú také, aké sa na pohľad zdajú. Zabudnú mladí starožitníci na svár medzi ich rodinami? A podarí sa im vylúštiť záhadu clovertonskej zbierky napriek nástrahám, ktoré im pripravia nielen intrigy na panstve, ale aj ich vlastné srdcia? Z anglického originálu The Cloverton Charade (Thomas Nelson, a registered trademark of HarperCollins Christian Publishing, Inc., Nashville, Tennessee 2024) preložila Marta Gergelyová.

Deep Cuts


It was the love story of the decade… Or it should have been. The first time Joe plays Percy one of his songs in his college room in 2000, she instantly realises three things: One, she is watching a star in the making. Two, she can shape his music into something extraordinary. Three, she will always be on the sidelines. She swallows her jealousy and throws herself into collaboration, transforming Joe’s songs into indie hits with her blistering critiques. But there’s an undercurrent to the music they’re making – something undeniably electric, hurtling towards love. And then, almost inevitably, towards heartbreak.

George Falls Through Time


GEORGE FALLS THROUGH TIME IS. . . "Incredibly entertaining and intelligent." —GARRARD CONLEY"Big-hearted and inspired." —STEVEN ROWLEY"Funny, surprising, profound." —GRANT GINDER"Unputdownable." —LUNA MCNAMARALess meets the year 1300 in this exhilarating and thoughtfully genre-defying literary novel about a man transported through time in a moment of extreme stress, whose modern anxieties are replaced by medieval brutalitiesNewly laid off George’s internet bill is in his ex-boyfriend’s name. He’s got a spider-infested apartment, and two of the six dogs he’s walking in London have just escaped. It’s pure undiluted stress that sends him into a spiral, all the way to the year 1300. When he comes to, George recognizes the same rolling hills of Greenwich Park. But the luxuries and phone service of modernity are nowhere. In their place are locals with a bizarre, slanted speech in awe of his foreign clothes, who swiftly toss him in a dungeon. Despite the barbarity of a medieval world, a servant named Simon helps George acclimate to a simpler, easier existence—until a summons from the King threatens to send his life up in flames. George Falls Through Time is as much an inward journey as an outward one: an immersive exploration of identity and dislocation that pits present-day sensibilities against a raw and alien backdrop, a strangely perfect canvas for the absurd anxieties of our modern lives. It's a profound meditation on the nature of desire perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and The Ministry of Time.
