Desať spôsobov ako si uloviť lorda a zostať zbožňovaná
Výučba sa začína
Nicholas St. John sa stal stredobodom záujmu všetkých mladých dám, odkedy ho populárny ženský časopis označil za jedného z najžiadanejších slobodných lordov. Keď sa mu teda naskytne príležitosť uniknúť z módnej londýnskej spoločnosti, s radosťou ju využije. Počas cesty na sever však narazí na ženu, ktorá je iná ako všetky ostatné – tajomná, nezávislá a zároveň zmyselná.
Lady Isabel Townsendová, dcéra titulovaného márnotratníka, má priveľa tajomstiev a primálo peňazí. Hoci bola odjakživa zvyknutá spoliehať sa len na seba, odkedy zomrel jej otec, cíti sa stratená a naliehavo potrebuje pomoc, aby ochránila dedičské právo svojho mladšieho brata. Možno práve lord Nicholas by mohol byť spásou, ktorú hľadá. Stačí, ak sa bude riadiť desiatimi lekciami, vďaka ktorým získa tohto žiaduceho muža. No dáma musí byť opatrná a nesmie urobiť žiadne unáhlené rozhodnutie – ako napríklad vášnivo sa zamilovať.
Preklad z anglického originálu Ten Ways to Be Adored When Landing a Lord (Avon an Imprint of HarperCollins Publisher, New York 2010) Zuzana Smolinská.

Nem kívánt házasság - Windsor testvérek 3.
A családot vaskézzel irányító Windsor nagyi szava törvény. Ezúttal Dionon a sor, hogy megházasodjon.
A kiszemelt feleség, Faye tudta, hogy ez előbb-utóbb bekövetkezik. Most kénytelen szakítani szerelmével, a szelíd Erickel, mert a családok közötti egyezséget nem rúghatja fel.
Faye-nek nem volt felhőtlen gyerekkora bántalmazó apja mellett; a félénk, törékeny kislányt úgy nevelték, hogy tökéletes feleség legyen. A zene volt az egyetlen menedéke, és most, sikeres zongoraművészként is csak ezen a nyelven tudja kifejezni az érzéseit.
Dion is nehéz terhet cipel, bár ez nem látszik a határozott, kemény üzletemberen. Jóval idősebb Faye-nél, és nem fűz sok reményt a kényszerű házassághoz. Ám mindkettőjük meglepetésére olyan rejtett tulajdonságokat fedeznek fel a másikban, amelyek átsegítik őket a nehézségeken, és talán végre ők is megtalálják a megérdemelt boldogságot.
„Azt hittem, végre fellélegezhetünk, és minden jóra fordul. Nem is tévedhettem volna nagyobbat. Mindig fogoly leszek, és nincs menekvés.”
Üvöltő szelek
„Abban a pillanatban, hogy lehunytam a szemem, ő ott volt; vagy az ablakon kívül, vagy széttolta a fatáblákat, vagy belépett a szobába, vagy éppenséggel ott nyugtatta drága fejét ugyanazon a párnán, amelyen gyermekkorában; s nekem fel kellett nyitnom a szememet, hogy meglássam. Éjjelente százszor is kinyitottam és behunytam a szemem, és csalódás ért századszorra is! A kínok kínját kellett kiállnom.”
Murder Bimbo
I'm a 32-year-old sex worker who just killed a politician. Please, please, please turn me into a feminist anti-hero . . .
A 32-year-old sex worker has just killed extremist political hopeful Meat Neck. Holed up in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods, she now has only two days, her wits and a high-speed internet connection to save her own life.
Her best bet is to reach out to the wildly popular feminist investigative podcast Justice for Bimbos. In a hastily-typed series of emails, the newly-minted "Murder Bimbo" explains how she was recruited and then trained by a cabal of code-named US agents to take out Meat Neck.
But, when she starts a new set of emails, this time addressed to her ex-girlfriend, we begin to realize that Murder Bimbo might not be the unsuspecting cog she claims to be.
In a time where 'truth' is more flexible than ever before - who really is Murder Bimbo? And what will she do next?
Miss Emily Beardsworth - Vágta a csillagokig
"A csönd vékony lepelként borította be őket. William meleg testéhez bújni olyan érzés volt Emily számára, mint amikor az ember először tapasztalja meg egy hosszú utazás végén a hazatérést."
Az epsomi rém - csak így suttognak a fátyol mögött rejtőző Emily Beardsworthről, akinek gondos kezei alól gyönyörű, díjnyertes versenylovak kerülnek ki. Birtokuk magányában a fiatal hölgy minden idejét az állatoknak szenteli, és kerüli a kíváncsi tekinteteket, rejtegeti torz arcát.
Egy nap azonban a szomszédos Ewell-házba beköltöznek a Maxwell fivérek. Lovel jóképű, megnyerő - és sajnos örökölte apjuk szerencsejáték-szenvedélyét. Az ő bohémságával szöges ellentétben áll bátyja, William, aki egy csöndes és magának való csillagász.
Vajon milyen jövőt tartogat számukra a sors?
Andrea O'Lacy XIX. századi Angliában játszódó regénye egy élő, pulzáló és érzelemdús történet, egy hiteles korrajz keretében. Izgalmas sorsok, ármány, barátság és egy óvatosan bontakozó szerelem elevenedik meg a lapokon.
Múzsa a díványon
Bécs, 1911. Gustav Klimt, a világhírű festő, a bécsi felső tízezer kedvence észrevesz egy meztelen nőt, aki holtan hever a Duna-parton. Tudja, hogy hívnia kéne a rendőrséget, de nem bírja megállni, hogy előbb ne rajzolja le. Ám miközben rajzol, a nő felköhög. Életben van!
A műtermében Klimt és az egyik modellje/múzsája, Wally gondoskodnak a vízbe fúlt lányról, aki nem emlékszik, kicsoda, vagy hogyan került a vízbe. Klimt a Judith nevet adja neki az egyik leghíresebb képe után, és elhatározza, hogy segít neki emlékezni.
Sigmund Freud és Carl Gustav Jung segítségével Judithnak eszébe jut, hogy száz éve az északi sarkvidéken volt egy ládába zárva, köszönhetően egy Victor Frankenstein nevű embernek, és hogy többször is járt az Alvilágban.
De akkor hogyan kerül ide, Bécsbe? És miért üldözik annyian, köztük Geoff, a croissant-zabáló északi ördögkutya?
Legújabb regényében Christopher Moore a századelő európai művészvilágát tárja elénk a tőle megszokott különc karakterekkel, szellemes leírásokkal és persze sajátos humorral.

This isn’t just a prison break – it’s all-out war. ‘Totally compelling and realistic, Adam Captures the brutality and dark humour of the British army at their best.’– Matthew Hellyer ex 22 SAS

Divoká lovkyně
Vítěz lovu může být jen jeden.
Každý pátý rok, když se podzim láme v zimu, pořádají dva králové lov. Odehrává se v prastarém lese plném magie a tomu, kdo zvítězí, splní přání sám Jinokrál. Ne nadarmo se však tomuto lovu říká Divoký — kolují o něm strašlivé zvěsti a leckterý lovec se z něj nevrátil. Pozvánku navíc nezíská jen tak někdo.
To ovšem neodradí Gwydiona, opomíjeného potomka mocné královské rodiny, který chce za každou cenu zabránit krutému bratrovi v nástupnictví. Na pomoc si přizve mladou lovkyni Branwen, která díky čarovnému oku vidí i to, co ostatním zůstává skryto, přesto však nedokáže pomoci své chřadnoucí matce. A pak je tu ještě Pryderi, znovunalezený královský syn, který coby nemluvně padl do spárů netvora a bojí se, že v něm už navždy zůstalo cosi nestvůrného. Když tito tři spojí své síly (a udrží na uzdě Branwenina lidožravého kocoura), možná se jim podaří zvítězit. Jenže nic není jisté, protože v lásce i na lovu je dovoleno vše.
