Chasing Shelter - Sparrow Falls 5


I came here seeking sanctuary, I never meant to fall for the broody single dad next door. I've spent my life hiding in plain sight, burying my past beneath layers of carefully constructed lies. Moving to Sparrow Falls was supposed to be a fresh start. A place to lay low. But when I end up living next door to the single dad who just happens to be one of my brother’s best friends, everything changes. Trace Colson sees too much, asks too many questions, and his protectiveness is as infuriating as it is alluring. And when danger comes calling, it’s Trace who stands between me and the darkness. But being close to him is its own kind of risk. Because with every heated glance and every stolen touch, Trace tempts me to open my heart, to dream of a life I’d long since given up on. The only problem? Trace has his own demons, and when they collide with mine, the fallout could destroy us both.

Édes rémálom - Éldekorált kiadás


A legtöbb iskola büszkélkedik a diákjaival. A Calder Akadémia azonban inkább rejtegeti és bezárja őket. Ide járnak ugyanis a paranormális világ fenegyerekei. A szabályszegők, a katasztrófát okozók, a lelkileg sérültek. Tündérek, vámpírok, vérfarkasok, akiknek az ereje le van fojtva, hogy ne pusztíthassanak többé maguk körül. De akinek a vérében van, az megtalálja a módját a balhézásnak varázserő nélkül is. Én különösen kedvelt célpont vagyok: az igazgató lánya. Na, nem mintha anyám megvédene. Inkább ő maga is azon igyekszik, hogy minél többször megbüntethessen. A legjobb taktikám az, hogy próbálok lehajtott fejjel közlekedni a folyosón, mindenkit elkerülve. Különösen Jude Abernathy-Leet, aki tudja, hol fáj a legjobban. De most minden más. Katasztrófahelyzet van. Hurrikán közeledik, az áram hol elmegy, hol visszajön, a paranormálisok elfojtott ereje időről időre elszabadul, és hirtelen mintha legborzasztóbb rémálmaink válnának valóra. Muszáj szövetségeseket találnom, ha túl akarom élni ezt a pár napot. De Jude-ról szó sem lehet. Nem törheti össze a szívemet még egyszer. Térj vissza a Sóvárgás világába, és találkozz újra kedvenc szereplőiddel, Remyvel és Izzyvel! A Calder Akadémia-trilógia első része után biztos, hogy csak lámpafénynél mersz elaludni!

Krajčírka z Akádie


Dokáže láska v krajine rozorvanej konfliktom spojiť roztrieštené kúsky? Rok 1754 sa blíži ku koncu a napätie medzi Francúzmi a Britmi na kanadskom akádijskom pobreží vrcholí. Krajčírka Sylvie Galantová a jej rodina – francúzsky hovoriaci Akádijčania, ktorí chcú zostať neutrálni – sa ocitnú uprostred konfliktu, pretože ich pozemok leží medzi pevnosťami, na ktorých sa trepocú vlajky súperiacich národov. V čase, keď sa všetci pripravujú na oslavu Vianoc, sa šíria chýry o nepokojoch, blížiacej sa vojne a o Williamovi Blackburnovi, príslušníkovi britskej armády, ktorý na severoamerickom pohraničí spôsobuje rozruch. Keď sa v roku 1755 prihlási o slovo leto a na obzore sa objavia britské lode, Sylvie sa stretáva s Blackburnom, ktorý ju varuje pred blížiacou sa inváziou. Namiesto toho, aby sa podieľal na násilnom vysťahovaní Akádijčanov z ich krajiny, svojho poverenia sa vzdá. To však Sylvie a jej príbuzných nezachráni. Sylvie sa na ošarpanej lodi preplaví do Virgínie, kde sa snaží pozliepať zvyšky svojho života. Keď sa jej a Williamove cesty opäť skrížia, musia sa prebojovať cez zložitú spleť spoločnej zničenej minulosti, aby dokázali preklenúť prítomnosť a nájsť trvalú budúcnosť.

Maggie


A Chinese American woman spins tragedy into comedy when her life falls apart in a taut, wry debut novel that grapples with grief, motherhood, and myths-perfect for fans of Joan Is Okay and Crying in H Mart. A man and a woman walk into a restaurant. The woman expects a lovely night filled with endless plates of samosas. Instead, she finds out her husband is having an affair with a woman named Maggie. A short while after, her chest starts to ache. She walks into an examination room, where she finds out the pain in her breast isn't just heartbreak-it's cancer. She decides to call the tumor Maggie. Unfolding in fragments over the course of the ensuing months, Maggie; Or, a Man and a Woman Walk Into a Bar follows the narrator as she embarks on a journey of grief, healing, and reclamation. She starts talking to Maggie (the tumor), getting acquainted with her body's new inhabitant. She overgenerously creates a "Guide to My Husband: A User's Manual" for Maggie (the other woman), hoping to ease the process of discovering her ex-husband's whims and quirks. She turns her children's bedtime stories into retellings of Chinese folklore passed down by her own mother, in an attempt to make them fall in love with their shared culture-and to maybe save herself in the process. In the style of Jenny Offill and the tradition of Nora Ephron's hilarious and devastating writing on heartbreak and womanhood, Maggie is a master class in transforming personal tragedy into a form of defiant comedy.

Wuthering Heights is given a high-heat magical twist in this spicy retelling of Emily Brontë’s classic. *** He was the other half of my soul – the mirror to my every dark desire. My destruction, my redemption, my salvation: my Heathcliff. Cathy Earnshaw’s got the devil inside her – or at least that’s what the small, cultish community she’s spent her whole life trapped inside would say. She can sense death coming, and every loss sends her spiralling into a violent, uncontrollable episode of grief, wailing like a banshee across the swampy forests of the Lowcountry. With a secret as dark as hers, there’s no hope of relief, or escape, or finding someone with a chance of understanding. Until she meets him. Heathcliff’s got his own trauma, and a secret just as dangerous as Cathy’s. Stolen as a child, raised by necromancers, he’s the most forbidden sin she could ever imagine…and the most desperately tempting. Violent in his passions, tender in his affection, he feels like the other half of her soul, but even as they claw desperately to be together, the world seems just as determined to keep them apart. Because it turns out their little Southern community was built long ago on a graveyard of lies…and every cult needs its sacrificial lamb. The third book in the GILDED MONSTERS series, featuring fantasy romance retellings of classic tales, is a new adult romance to be devoured by fans of steamy romance, classic literature and gothic fiction. Tropes Spicy Romance Forbidden Love Supernatural & Paranormal Bad Boy Romance Modern Retelling The Gilded Monsters Series: Beautiful Villain (The Great Gatsby) Charming Devil (The Picture of Dorian Gray) Ruthless Devotion (Wuthering Heights)
