La Dolce Veto
A bold and emotionally resonant romance that flips the script on scandal, and shows the power of self-discovery, redemption, and a summer of love in a small Italian town. Rising star US Congresswoman Isabella Rhodes was supposed to be making history—not headlines. But when a devastating betrayal shatters her career overnight, she flees to La Musa, a sleepy village in the heart of Umbria where the days are slow, the pasta is handmade, and no one knows her name. At Villa Farentino, Izzy hopes to start fresh, far from the relentless eyes of the world. But her plans unravel when she learns she’ll be sharing the villa with Benito Farentino, the brooding, newly elected mayor who is just as determined to save his crumbling hometown as he is unwilling to trust outsiders. As tensions grow over a controversial hotel development, Izzy is pulled into the fight for La Musa’s future… and further into Benito’s world. And soon, what began as a quiet escape becomes a chance to rebuild, to believe again, and maybe even to fall in love. Izzy now has a choice. Will she risk her second chance at happiness for the life she left behind, or stay and fight for the one she’s only just begun to imagine?

The Ending Writes Itself
''Secrets don''t stay secret for long in publishing''Six authors. One private island. Seventy-two hours to write the ending that will change their lives.‘This is a house of novelists, not murderers. You dream up crimes. You don’t commit them.’ ‘But a writer has. And so, who better than a writer to catch them?’World famous author Arthur Fletch is dead. His final novel, the most anticipated book in history, remains unfinished. But the ending won’t write itself.Fletch’s publisher, Merriweather Press, has invited six authors to Fletch’s private island in Scotland. Authors whose books have never had the big marketing budgets or publicity opportunities. In other words, midlist. And they’re about to be presented with the opportunity of a lifetime.Whoever writes a worthy ending will receive one million dollars, and a further one million dollars for a new three-book contract.They have just seventy-two hours, with no access to the outside world, just a typewriter and a blank page. All they have to do is write…Starting is often the hardest part. But getting to the end could be murder. *‘Agatha Christie''s And Then There Were None meets Yellowface… Great fun!’ Kate Mosse‘A great locked-room thriller and a brilliant satire on the publishing industry’ Karin Slaughter‘Fiendishly clever and compulsively readable… An absolute must read’ Ellery Lloyd‘Funny, razor sharp and scarily relatable’ Sarah Crossan

Like a Cat Loves a Bird
'This is a deeply stylish, astute and illuminating biography of a fascinating writer'FRANCESCA WADE, author of Square Haunting'Utterly charming. A book as elegant, sharp-witted and mischievous as its subject'CLARE POLLARD, author of Delphi'She was, if you believe what you read in the papers: a genius, a survivor, a bad mother, a fickle friend, a closeted lesbian, a tyrant, a loner, an eccentric, a recluse, a gossip, and an arch-manipulator. She would politely encourage you not to believe what you read in the papers.'Muriel Spark was one of literature's great shapeshifters. That mercurial quality is found in her strange, brilliant, cruel novels - with their plots featuring pensioners receiving telephone calls from Death, the devil going clubbing in Peckham and a fascist schoolmistress leading her coterie of girls astray - but it is also true of her as a person. As sly, nimble and elegant as Spark's own work, Like a Cat Loves a Bird is a thrilling new perspective on a remarkable life and career that spanned much of the twentieth century. From her childhood in Edinburgh to her final years in Tuscany - via South Africa, London, New York and Rome - it traces a light-footed journey around the world and through her strange and magnificent bibliography. It tells an irresistible story of transformation, wit and fierce determination and makes a passionate case for this vital modern artist. 'You don't have to be a Muriel Spark fan to enjoy the sharp wit of Like a Cat Loves a Bird, a fascinating and nuanced exploration of the sacrifices some make to focus on their art'LUKE TURNER, author of Out of the Woods'Vital, fun and immediate . . . full of engaging and astute literary analysis of Spark's work as well as scintillating, vivid biography'FRANCESCA REECE, author of Glass Houses'A readable and fascinating book, about an under-appreciated literary giantLUCINDA HAWKSLEY, author of The Mystery of Princess Louise

The Party to End All Parties
***** Readers LOVE TO HATE the Morlands! ***** “I now feel like I need a bath and a long lie down…” “If ever there was a warning not to do drugs, this novel is it” "What in the Saltburn did I just read?" “A master class in family dysfunction” “Oh my God what in the what?” "Gloriously deranged. And yes, the goat absolutely steals the show" The disgustingly rich and grossly dysfunctional Morland siblings are throwing one of their infamous parties, before it's decided which one of them will take over their ancestral family home. Despite their rivalry, Kassie, Caitlin, Paul and Steven are determined it's going to be a night to remember. But by the morning, one of their guests isn't just hungover: they're dead. The Morlands each have a motive, and they all have dubious morals. But which of them is actually a murderer? While all of them suspect the others, the siblings face a choice: call the police (but risk investigation into their other illegal dealings) or work together to hide the body in the wine cellar. They choose badly. Unfortunately, teamwork doesn't come naturally to this family. With Grandma on her way and the inheritance decision looming, old traumas re-surface and new threats start to claw their way out of the shadows… Who will survive until the afterparty? ***** More reader reactions! ***** “Family drama so toxic it should come with a biohazard label. […] Characters you love to hate: petty, venomous, and so self-absorbed they’d probably step over your body on the way to brunch”

Brimstone (Tündék és Alkímia 2.)
Kötelesség. Vér. Becsület. Hatalom.
Saeris Fane nem vágyott hatalomra.
Semmi örömét nem leli abban, hogy az egész udvar az ő nevét suttogja.
Sőt, most, hogy a Vér-udvar királynőjévé koronázták, rádöbben:
egy királynőnek nem lehet saját élete. Súlyos teher nehezedik a vállára.
Nevelője és öccse visszavárja őt a szülőföldjén… csakhogy azok a
változások, amelyek erősebbé tették Saerist, bizonyos szempontból
meg is gyengítették: most biztosan meghalna a két perzselő nap alatt.
Ez pedig azt jelenti, hogy ismét mást kell küldenie maga helyett…
Kingfisher hadseregeket győzött le és hátborzongató szörnyűségeket élt
túl, de a Zilvarenbe vezető út Carrion Swift oldalán talán kifog rajta.
Az a fickó egyszerűen képtelen csendben maradni. Miközben teljesíteniük
kell a küldetést, Ezüstváros szűk sikátoraiban rejtett veszélyek várnak
rájuk, és Fishernek meg kell fékeznie a csempészt is, ha újra látni akarja a párját.
Sötétség borult Yveliára. Saeris és Fisher tűzön, vízen
és kénkövön keresztül küzd, hogy megmentsék a világot.

A lány és a herceg 2: A nevelőnő leckéje
Egy férfi, aki habzsolja az életet és a nőket. És egy nevelőnő, aki feladja neki a leckét.
Alexandra Mountbatten egy pillanat alatt elveszített mindent, és kénytelen elvállalni egy lehetetlennek tűnő állást: két vadóc lánykából kell illedelmes, finom hölgyet formálnia.
Hamar rájön, hogy a lányoknak nem vasszigorra, hanem szerető otthonra van szükségük. De hogyan győzhetné meg erről a gyámjukat, Chase Reynaud-t, akit a londoni közéletben a hercegi cím várományosaként ismernek, a magánéletben pedig egymás után omlanak a karjába a nők?
Noha már sokan megpróbálták elérni, hogy megállapodjon, sorra kudarcot vallottak. Alexandrának viszont muszáj valahogy megtalálnia az utat a férfi szívéhez, ám anélkül, hogy közben veszélybe sodorná a sajátját.
Chase egyetlen szabály mentén éli az életét: elköteleződésről szó sem lehet.
Amikor azonban a makacs nevelőnő megpróbálja ,,jó útra téríteni", elhatározza, hogy bebizonyítja neki: őt képtelenség megzabolázni. Leckét pedig ő is tud adni abból, amihez a legjobban ért - a gyönyörből.
Alexandra azonban okos, talpraesett és szenvedélyes. Felülmúlja a férfi várakozásait. Vajon képes lesz őt megváltoztatni, ha egyszer a férfi maga sem hiszi, hogy ez lehetséges?
Don't Laugh at Other People's Sex Lives
Art student Isogai first models for one of his tutors, the much older Yuri, then begins a passionate affair with her.

Beautiful Distance
An unnamed narrator sits in a cafe overlooking a train station, sipping a green juice and people-watching. A small white butterfly flutters through the air; a calico cat jumps onto a wall; cherry blossom petals fall, softly, to the ground. Life stands still for one moment. He is preparing to visit his terminally ill wife in hospital.
So begins this moving novel exploring the distance between people, places and memories in simple and elegant prose, as Yamazaki raises questions around what family means, how we think about death, and how we express love; particularly in a society where work is often prioritised.
