Oskar Ed: Môj najväčší sen
Usaďte sa spolu s Oskarom Edom na zadnom sedadle ošarpaného auta jeho rodičov, nasajte dym z cigariet jeho otca a parfum jeho matky a staňte sa tichým spolujazdcom na ich spoločnej ceste mesačnou krajinou. Zostrené zmysly a silná predstavivosť rozkladajú beztak dosť krehkú realitu do obrazov pripomínajúcich surreálny sen. Počítajte zvodidlá, odpočívadlá a motoresty, raz, dva, tri… Sedí sa vám dobre?
Oskar Ed sa vydáva na nekonečný výlet s množstvom zákutí vedúcich do jeho vlastných vesmírov. Zakaždým ho však dobehne tieň neutešenej prítomnosti. Kam sa ten jeho otec tak tvrdošijne ženie? Akoby celý osud tejto výstrednej rodiny závisel od cieľa, ktorý zostáva až do konca záhadou.

Haunting the Hunter
Hanna Harp's incendiary debut paranormal dark romance, perfect for fans of Sadie Kincaid's Forged in Blood and Keri Lake's Anathema, follows Cade, a devoted hunter fighting to shield his sister Callisto from a haunting generational curse, but when a mysterious spirit begins to break down his defenses, both his passion and his will ignite into a scorching, fourth-wall breaking read that places you at the heart of the story.Warning: This is not just a book. It's an invitation. A contract sealed the moment you turn the page. If you choose to read, you choose to be seen. If you choose to follow him, he will hunt you. This story does not end when you close the book... Cade Halloway is a hunter, raised by the Order of the Covenant—a cult built on blood, sacrifice, and power. He tracks and eliminates the powerful and corrupt. A predator disguised as a savior, but he's not here to save the innocent. He's here to rip apart the monsters who hide in plain sight. For years, he has been their weapon. Until he discovered the truth...his sister Callisto is slated to be their next offering. Callisto Halloway was supposed to die for the Order, but her brother has other plans. While in hiding, unable to help or fight, she spends her time trying to control the power she was born with, the power that the Order will kill for. But independence comes at a price, and her uncontrolled power summons a demon far more dangerous than the Order. One that wants more than her body or her soul. Now, on the run from the Order, Cade's only purpose is to save his sister. But Callisto's power has consequences. There's now an unseen force—a spectral presence—following Cade he can't explain and can't escape. A presence that breaks down all of his defenses, and tears down walls even he didn't know he had built, as he finds himself drawn to it in mind, spirit, and body. And it may be the only thing that can save him and Callisto. You. Are you sure you want to be haunted?
A Rivalry of Hearts - Fae Flings and Corset String 1
A Rivalry of Hearts is a spicy standalone fantasy romcom in the Fae Flings and Corset Strings series. Every book in this interconnected series is a complete story and ends with a HEA. If you like academic rivals, enemies to lovers, and quirky heroines, then you'll love this sizzling tale.
Two rival writers.
One prestigious publishing contract.
A bargain of hearts and desire.
They say never bargain with the fae. They also say don't get drunk on fae wine. Yet romance author Edwina Danforth has managed a blunder with both on her first visit to the infamous faelands. Now she's trapped in a magic-fuelled bet she barely remembers with a man she'd be happier to forget. The terms? Whoever can bed the most lovers during their month-long duelling book tour wins a coveted publishing contract.
The win should be easy for Edwina. She's known for penning scintillating tales of whirlwind romance. There's just one problem: her imagination vastly exceeds her bedroom experience. But when failure means plummeting her career back into obscurity, losing isn't an option.
Her handsome fae rival, William Haywood, poses an even greater challenge. Not only are his looks as aggravatingly perfect as his track record behind closed doors, but he has his own reasons for playing to win, and he won't go down without a fight. Unless, of course, it's a different kind of going down. In that case, he's fair game.
Edwina and William clash in a rivalry of romance. But what happens when their objects of desire...turn out to be each other?
The Fae Flings and Corset Strings series is set in the same world as The Fair Isle Trilogy and Entangled with Fae. Journey back to this beloved fae world or fall in love for the first time.
