Před námi a po nás
Je začátek dlouhého horkého léta a nejlepší kamarádky Elk a Mab odcházejí na večírek, aniž by jen vzdáleně tušily, že tohle nevinné rozhodnutí změní jejich životy navždy. Nečekaná tragédie zasáhne všechny, kdo se ocitli v jejím epicentru. Nic už není jako dřív, existuje jen Předtím a Potom a hluboká touha vrátit se v čase do chvíle před katastrofou. Obě kamarádky mají před sebou nelehký úkol – vyrovnat se s náhlou smrtí a celoživotními důsledky jediného tragického činu, kterému nemohly zabránit...
Ve spárech temnoty
Před několika týdny se život Zoey Kingové naráz změnil. Zjistila nejen to, že na rozdíl od své věhlasné matky v sobě nosí smrtící magii a je smrtivíla, ale dospěla také k trpkému poznání, že její nejlepší přítelkyně Violet není člověkem, o kterém se domnívala, že ho celý svůj dosavadní život zná.
Od té doby se Zoey ze všech sil pokouší zapomenout, co se stalo, a ohlušit bolest na co nejvíce večírcích. To by se jí ovšem dařilo mnohem lépe, kdyby se jí stále nepletl do cesty Dylan Dae Park. Přitom je už dost na pováženou to, že tento smrtonoš ji musí nadále doučovat a trénovat v bojových sportech – a navíc předstírá, že polibek, k němuž mezi nimi kdysi došlo, se nikdy nestal.
A jako by to nestačilo, Zoeyiny známky po přechodu na kolej Stříbrný havran taky nejsou žádná sláva. Ale aspoň tohle vypadá, že bude mít řešení, protože na akademii Everfall se blíží závěrečný turnaj a ve třech zkouškách, které ověří bojové umění, ale i inteligenci, odvahu a statečnost, může Zoey nasbírat dodatečné body na vysvědčení. Avšak už při prvním úkolu se ukáže, že to bude mnohem nebezpečnější, než si Zoey vůbec dokáže představit.
A zanedlouho je jasné, že v sázce není pouze její vlastní život, ale i život lidí, kteří pro ni znamenají všechno…

Maxton Hall 2: Zachráň sa
Možno bola ich láska odsúdená na zánik. A možno sú pre seba stvorení.
Ruby Bellová je na dne. Nečakala, že sa raz zamiluje do Jamesa, bohatého a zdanlivo nedostupného dediča odevného impéria. A nikdy by jej nenapadlo, že ju podlo zradí. Túži sa vrátiť k starému životu, keď v Maxton Hall College nikoho nepoznala. S elitárskym a skazeným svetom svojich spolužiakov vtedy nemala nič spoločné. Aj James prežíva ťažké obdobie. Jeho blízki trpia pri pohľade na to, ako sa systematicky ničí. Ruby sa mu snaží byť oporou, hoci jej zlomil srdce. Zaprisahá sa však, že mu už nikdy nepodľahne. Lenže ako má dostať Jamesa z hlavy, keď je ochotný spraviť aj nemožné, aby ju získal späť?

The Deal - Off-Campus 1
This limited Collector's Edition printing will include a new hardcase design, printed edges, designed endpapers, and colored character art throughout of your fave OG hockey couple, Hannah and Garrett!
?She's about to make a deal with the college bad boy...
Hannah Wells has finally found someone who turns her on. But while she might be confident in every other area of her life, she's carting around a full set of baggage when it comes to sex and seduction. If she wants to get her crush's attention, she'll have to step out of her comfort zone and make him take notice...even if it means tutoring the annoying, childish, cocky captain of the hockey team in exchange for a pretend date.
...and it's going to be oh so good.
All Garrett Graham has ever wanted is to play professional hockey after graduation, but his plummeting GPA is threatening everything he's worked so hard for. If helping a sarcastic brunette make another guy jealous will help him secure his position on the team, he's all for it. But when one unexpected kiss leads to the wildest sex of both their lives, it doesn't take long for Garrett to realize that pretend isn't going to cut it. Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.
Bingsu pro dva
Seznamte se: River Langston-Lee. Za posledních 24 hodin opustil svou přítelkyni, nedokončil testy SAT a dal výpověď v podniku svých rodičů. Naštěstí mu kamarád dohodí práci v kavárně Bingsu pro dva, kde mu radost kazí jen šíleně nesnesitelná kolegyně. Když se však video jejich pracovních eskapád stane virálním, internet si žádá jediné: lásku. Mezi Riverem a Sarang to ale spíš vře, než jiskří – a předstírat romanci kvůli fanouškům a zákazníkům? To je recept na katastrofu… nebo možná na něco úplně jiného.

Raventhorne Árvaház - Találj rám!
Ivy Thornfield világa egyetlen pillanat alatt darabokra hullik, amikor elveszíti a szüleit, és tizenhét évesen, az otthonától messze, egy zárt rendszerű árvaházba kerül.
Az első éjszakáján vérfagyasztó sikoltást hall, ami egy rejtélyes találkozáshoz vezet egy titokzatos ismeretlennel, Damiennel. Másnap egy lány nyomtalanul eltűnik, és mindenki úgy tesz, mintha soha nem is létezett volna. Kivéve Ivyt és Damient, akik hallották a lány sikolyát azon a bizonyos éjszakán.
Ők ketten nem képesek hátat fordítani annak, amit hallottak, és nyomozásba kezdenek, ami során nemcsak a rájuk leselkedő veszélyekkel kell megküzdeniük, hanem az egymás iránti érzéseikkel is, egy olyan helyen, ahol az érzelem a gyengeség jele.
Egyetlen kérdés maradt csak: Vajon túléli-e az, aki túl közel merészkedik az igazsághoz?
Egy YA romantikus krimi a gyászról, fájdalomról, titkokról és arról, milyen veszélyes a szerelem ott, ahol az érzelem fegyver, a bosszú pedig édes, mint a méz.
De ne feledd: Raventhorne nem tűri a gyengeséget.
Égmágus
Milyen lehet egy olyan világban élni, ahol csak a nőkből válhat mágus, a férfiak feladata pedig a ház körüli munka és a gyerekek nevelése?
Ebben a különös, matriarchális társadalomban kezdetét veszi a hagyományos beavatási időszak a tizennyolc éves fiataloknak, akik az utazófákon keresztül érkeznek a falutáborokba, a lánytáborban pedig pár hónap alatt eldől, hogy kiből lehet mágus. Az egyik utazófa odvában azonban szokatlan módon két gyerek bukkan fel, egy lány és egy fiú, akik semmire nem emlékeznek a múltjukból... Mwazi és Kobe (aki bár fiú, a lányok táborába kerül) lassan újratanulja a mágiával átitatott világot, miközben ráébrednek a férfiak és nők, gazdagok és szegények közti egyenlőtlenségekre. Miután sorozatos támadások érik őket, kirajzolódik, hogy a táboron belül és kívül kire számíthatnak igazán, és fokról fokra felszínre törnek az emlékeik is, melyek létfontosságúak ahhoz, hogy felvállalják az istenek által nekik szánt sorsot.
Denník citrónového dievčaťa
Pre fanúšičky mysterióznych príbehov a zamotaných prvých lások
Sedemnásťročná Sára sa práve s mamou presťahovala do nového mesta a vôbec z toho nie je nadšená. Keď sa jej však v novej škole prihovorí tajomné dievča s jasnomodrými očami, mrazivé tajomstvo prevráti Sárin svet naruby.
Ema je totiž duch, čo blúdi školskými chodbami, odkedy pred rokom zomrela za podozrivých okolností. A všetky stopy smerujú k Alexovi, charizmatickému outsiderovi, ktorého prítomnosť je pre Sáru rovnako nebezpečná ako neodolateľná. A pritom chcela nájsť len jedinú chuť, ktorú nedokáže pustiť z hlavy – bájne citrónové pery.
Denník citrónového dievčaťa sa začína ako tínedžerský príbeh plný sarkazmu, školských drám a prvých lások, no postupne sa mení na odvážny plán, v ktorom Sára pripravuje pascu, aby prinútila vinníkov ukázať svoju pravú tvár.

The Forgotten Teachers
Interweaving science and storytelling, spirituality and art, a neuroscientist and an artist guide us toward a deeper understanding of how radically interconnected all of life is. Starting from science, while reaching for spiritual truth, The Forgotten Teachers charts the evolution of life on Earth under the mentorship of six teachers: Ocean, Air, Theia (through collision with this planet, Earth was set on its tilt), Sun, Plants, and Symbionts. Ideas from the field of evolutionary biology, accompanied by watercolor illustrations, guide this factual yet mytho-poetic exploration of life. Motivated by their shared concern over the severance of science from the sacred, and humans from their place within nature, Isett and Biçen set out to write a scientific wonder story for our times—to enchant readers with the strangeness and beauty of evolutionary biology, while reintegrating us into the natural world. As Rachel Carson did in her time and as Wendell Berry has done as a poet and essayist across the years, Isett writes with precision and urgency to remind us that we participate in a story that is far larger than ourselves, and that to see ourselves more truly would be to see the many ways in which we belong to the molecules and mysteries of the living world.

A magical romance blossoms in the follow-up to WINGS, the bestselling novel described by Stephenie Meyer as "a remarkable debut". "I can't just storm in and proclaim my intentions. I can't 'steal' you away. I just have to wait, and hope that someday you'll ask," Tamani said. "And if I don't?" Laurel asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "Then I guess I'll be waiting forever." It's been almost a year since Laurel discovered that she is a faerie, placed with human parents as an infant to help protect the gateway to the faerie realm of Avalon. Although she's come to accept her true identity, Laurel refuses to turn her back on her human life-and especially her boyfriend, David-to return to the faerie world. But when she is summoned to Avalon to relearn her long-forgotten faerie magic, Laurel must depend on the charismatic faerie sentry Tamani. Her feelings for him are undeniable, and she is forced to make a choice-a choice that could break her heart. When a deadly enemy resurfaces and puts both Laurel's life and Avalon in danger, Laurel must draw on all her human strength as well as her faerie skills to save both of her worlds and all of those she holds dear.

And even more disturbing is another foreign exchange student named Yuki whom Laurel quickly realises is a faerie, though the new girl doesn’t seem to have any idea who or what she really is. Laurel is determined to figure out how Yuki fits into the picture, and what connection she may have to the ever-increasing threats to her family and Avalon. Meanwhile, Laurel struggles to maintain a balance between her human boyfriend David and Tamani, with whom she shares a passionate past. But balancing two worlds is becoming more and more complicated. When the threat to Avalon grows ever stronger, Laurel’s illusion of control of the situation shatters and she must confront a danger even greater than the trolls.
