From USA Today bestselling author Kathryn Moon comes the Sweetverse: a scorching, emotional, why-choose omegaverse for fans of Katee Robert and Harley Laroux.
Baby's heat is coming…
After years of assuming she was a beta, discovering her omega designation in a biker bar surrounded by alphas isn't exactly fulfilling any fantasies for Baby. She only wanted to have a fun night, not get knotted, bitten, and bonded. Now Baby's entire life is about to turn upside down. With her heat on its way, she needs to find a pack, a nest, and alphas she can trust.
The Late Night Howlers have given up hope…
After years of waiting for an omega to choose them, this motorcycle club of alphas is ready to move on with their lives. Until one sweet woman takes a chance on them. A rundown bar and apartment building is no place to spoil a new omega but the Howlers are determined to do right by Baby when she needs them. All they have to do is keep her satisfied while resisting the mouthwatering temptation to bite and bond her, permanently.
When a rival MC comes sniffing after Baby, her safety is put at risk and the Howlers may be torn apart forever.
Always Red - Chasing Red 2
THE RIVETING CONCLUSION TO RED AND CALEB'S EPIC STORY
Veronica Strafford has spent years running-from her past, her fears, and the boy who once meant everything.
From Caleb Lockhart.
Caleb was her first real love. The one who broke through her walls. The one she pushed away when trusting felt like too much. Now that he's back, Veronica is forced to face the truth: losing him may be the biggest mistake she ever made.
Caleb hasn't forgotten the heartbreak she left behind. He doesn't know if he can trust her again-but one look is all it takes for their connection to reignite, hot and impossible to ignore.
As jealousy, secrets, and dangerous lies close in, Veronica is determined to prove she's no longer the girl who ran. But when a shocking act of violence threatens their fragile second chance, Veronica and Caleb must decide if love is worth the risk.
Because second chances don't come without consequences-and some hearts only survive if you fight for them.
Spitfire in Love - Chasing Red 3
She's never at a loss for words. He's determined to have the last one.
Kara Hawthorne doesn't have time for romance. Between college classes, multiple jobs, and her family's failing auto shop, survival comes first.
Then she meets Cameron Saint Laurent.
Cameron is quiet, intense, and impossible to read. His presence is steady. His gaze lingers. And no matter how hard Kara fights it, the chemistry between them burns hot and relentless. She's drawn to his control, his darkness-and the way he makes her feel seen in a life that never slows down.
Cameron sees Kara's fire and refuses to look away. But the past he's buried and the family he ran from threaten to pull him under before he can claim what he wants.
As pressure mounts and a dangerous presence begins stalking Kara's neighborhood, Cameron disappears without explanation. When he returns, he asks for the one thing Kara has never been taught to give.
Trust.
Because some love is worth the risk-and some second chances burn even hotter than the first.

The Scourge of War
A definitive biography that sheds light on the life and times of one of the Civil War's most important generals. William Tecumseh Sherman, a West Point graduate and veteran of the Seminole War, became one of the best-known generals in the Civil War. His March to the Sea, which resulted in a devastated swath of the South from Atlanta to Savannah, cemented his place in history as the pioneer of total war. In The Scourge of War, preeminent military historian Brian Holden Reid offers a deeply researched life and times account of Sherman. By examining his childhood and education, his business ventures in California, his antebellum leadership of a military college in Louisiana, and numerous career false starts, Holden Reid shows how unlikely his exceptional Civil War career would seem. He also demonstrates how crucial his family was to his professional path, particularly his wife's intervention during the war. He analyzes Sherman's development as a battlefield commander and especially his crucial friendships with Henry W. Halleck and Ulysses S. Grant. In doing so, he details how Sherman overcame both his weaknesses as a leader and severe depression to mature as a military strategist. Central chapters narrate closely Sherman's battlefield career and the gradual lifting of his pessimism that the Union would be defeated. After the war, Sherman became a popular figure in the North and the founder of the school for officers at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, known as the "intellectual center of the army." Holden Reid argues that Sherman was not hostile to the South throughout his life and only in later years gained a reputation as a villain who practiced barbaric destruction, particularly as the neo-Confederate Lost Cause grew and he published one of the first personal accounts of the war.
Always Connected
A transformative guide that blends personal experience, spiritual wisdom, and channeled teachings to help readers connect directly with higher consciousness and navigate life with clarity, peace, and purpose. Always Connected is for open-hearted seekers, those grieving a loss, spiritual explorers, and anyone ready to move beyond old belief systems.

Combining memoir, evidence-based spirit communication, channeled guidance from higher consciousness, and engaging dialogue with Suzanne’s nonphysical teachers, the book is structured in two parts: Part I shares personal stories and foundational teachings to help readers trust and access inner guidance. Part II offers spiritual insights on universal challenges such as grief, anger, forgiveness, regret, and self-worth, paired with practical invitations for readers to connect directly with spirit themselves. Suzanne’s rare combination of military credibility, evidential mediumship, and ability to communicate deeply with source consciousness—makes mystical experiences both accessible and grounded. Always Connected provides a 21st-century approach to spirituality that integrates science and the sacred, offering an empowering alternative to shift from the external noise of everyday stress to the quiet wisdom within.

Beating Heart of the World
The fascinating true story of how Taos Pueblo’s Indigenous people recruited members of the famous Taos art colony to help spark a movement for Native justice that reshaped the nation. When the first white artists arrived in Taos by horse-drawn wagons, centuries of military conquest and brutal government policies had pushed Indigenous people to the brink of collapse. New Mexico’s pueblos had become some of America’s last holdouts of traditional culture, resolutely preserving their sacred lands in the face of mounting pressure. Many of the free-spirited newcomers in Taos came to admire the pueblos’ peaceful, communal societies and holy regard for the natural world. To these outsiders, pueblo civilization offered a marked contrast to America’s record of endless war, hyperindividualism, and environmental destruction. Among those attracted to Taos was the “Queen of Bohemia,” a wealthy New York heiress who dabbled in peyote and personified radical chic. Mabel Dodge Luhan fell in love with Taos Pueblo leader Tony Lujan and hoped to inspire an American spiritual renaissance based on pueblo values. She brought world-famous luminaries to Taos, including D. H. Lawrence, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Carl Jung, along with the fiery social reformer John Collier. As the art colony gained international fame, the US government targeted the pueblos for extinction, moving to seize their lands and destroy their cultures. This same grim scenario had played out countless times before in US history. It seemed that nothing could stop the brutal crush of conquest. But the puebloans, who had once unleashed a fierce revolt against Spain in 1680, found a new way to fight back in the modern era. As master diplomats, they began recruiting the prominent creatives converging on Taos, shrewdly enlisting them as political allies. And these artists and writers, at a crucial moment in history, rose to join the pueblos and challenged their own culture’s prevailing genocidal policies. Beating Heart of the World is the fascinating, fast-paced chronicle of a long-shot resistance movement that grew into a powerful national campaign for Indigenous justice. While a work of history, Beating Heart of the World speaks urgently to our own era as new resistance movements percolate—and as new generations increasingly look to ancient Indigenous wisdom to help guide sustainable pathways forward.
The Enchanted April
When four very different English women abandon their grey, constricted lives for a month in a rented Italian castle, none of them expects to be changed. Yet beneath the warm April sun, amid the scent of wisteria and the glittering Mediterranean, old grievances soften and guarded hearts begin to open. Reserved Mrs Wilkins and earnest Mrs Arbuthnot seek escape from loneliness; glamorous Lady Caroline Dester yearns for peace; and formidable Mrs Fisher clings fiercely to the past. What follows is a gently comic and deeply human story of friendship, self-discovery, and the quiet power of beauty to heal. Witty, uplifting, and infused with luminous charm, The Enchanted April is a timeless celebration of spring, renewal, and second chances.

Darvasi László könyve nem kevesebbre vállalkozik, mint hogy megírja a novella világtörténetét.

Lore Olympus: Volume Ten
Hades and Persephone get a modern, romantic reimagining in Lore Olympus, a gorgeously illustrated, Eisner Award-winning comic—now including a never-before-seen bonus short story!SOON TO BE AN ANIMATED SERIES ON AMAZON PRIME-----------------------------------“The Mortal Realm—it’s dying.”After years of yearning, the big day has finally arrived: Hades and Persephone are getting married! It’s the ceremony of the century, and practically all the gods are invited to celebrate the happy couple. The wedding, full of love and joy, provides a much-needed respite for the pantheon . . . but the newlyweds have no time for a honeymoon. The king and queen of the Underworld begin unprecedented dives into the dream world to find the god that Kronos took hostage—and, hopefully, to get answers on defeating the furious titan once and for all. During their explorations, they begin to suspect that Persephone’s powers over spring may have been altered. Their theory is proven correct with deadly consequences: When Persephone returns to the Mortal Realm, she ushers in not the regular change of seasons, but a never-ending winter. And while the gods worry about the total annihilation of the Mortal Realm, Apollo uses the chaos as cover for an attempt to kill Zeus. He claims his dying father’s throne and decrees that the only way to save the Mortal Realm is if Persephone—and her power—belong to him. The others reject his outrageous demand, proposing instead that whoever can fix the failing seasons will be named interim ruler of Olympus. Hope now rests with the struggling goddess to find a way to stop the treacherous Apollo and save humankind—or else be separated from Hades forever. This edition of Smythe’s original Eisner Award–winning webcomic Lore Olympus features a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe and brings the Greek pantheon into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel. This volume collects episodes 234–260 of the #1 WEBTOON comic Lore Olympus. -----------------------------------PRAISE FOR LORE OLYMPUS:‘It's easy to see why the internet has fallen in love with Lore Olympus. This dazzling interpretation of the classic Greek myths is as charming as it is provocative, and as witty as it is startlingly romantic. Prepare to be swept away!’ – Marissa Meyer, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Lunar Chronicles‘This is a refreshingly modern and surprisingly poignant take on the Hades and Persephone myth. Not only does Rachel Smythe's talent as an illustrator shine in Lore Olympus but also her skill with weaving a steamy, often laugh-out-loud funny, and emotional retelling.’ – Jennifer L. Armentrout, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash‘With vivid, irresistible art and storytelling that would make even the Muses swoon, this modern myth deftly tackles the darkness of the ancient stories while never losing its brilliant light.

Historická detektivka 3
Dějiny nejsou jen sledem velkých okamžiků – politických dohod a dynastických svazků, stěhování celých národů, vítězných bitev i zdrcujících porážek. Tvoří je také mnohem drobnější příběhy: zločiny, spory a skandály, jež se občas propíšou do „velkých“ dějin, jindy však zůstanou ukryty v zaprášených stránkách místních kronik nebo soudních registrů, zapomenuty všemi kromě těch, kterých se bezprostředně dotkly.
Na oba tyto světy jsme se zaměřili ve třetím díle naší „kriminální” série. Potkáte zde vzbouřené sedláky i zrádné rychtáře, nešťastné šlechtičny i bezohlednou vrchnost, zlodějíčky i falzifikátory. Nahlédnete do zákulisí státního bankrotu, který ochudil tisíce lidí, i do záhadného zmizení podnikatele v předvečer druhé světové války. Každý z příběhů je jiný – a přesto je všechny spojuje jedna věc: jsou skutečné.
Nehledejte na těchto stránkách falešnou senzaci ani lacinou dramatizaci. To, co zde najdete, je syrová realita českých dějin – taková, jaká byla, bez příkras i bez zbytečného moralizování. Za každým článkem stojí odborní autoři našich historických magazínů Tajemství české minulosti a Živá historie.
Vydejte se s námi na cestu, která je stejnou měrou zábavná i poučná, napínavá i překvapivá. Cestu za poznáním událostí, jež – ať velké nebo zdánlivě malé – spoluvytvářely to, čemu říkáme české dějiny.

Túrapara
Are Kalvo képeslapra illő hegyek között nőtt fel Nyugat-Norvégiában, mégsem lett a természet szerelmese. Beköltözött a fővárosba, és vissza se nézett. Nem is volt ezzel semmi probléma egészen addig, amíg a barátai el nem kezdtek felszívódni… Ugyanis elragadta őket a természet! Jó embereket. Okos embereket. Vicces embereket, akik korábban bármikor szívesen mentek Aréval kocsmázni. Erre most minden hétvégén túrázni meg síelni járnak. Korán kelnek, lefotózzák magukat, amint egy hegy tetején állva az ég felé nyújtják a karjukat, a képet kiteszik a Facebookra vagy az Instára, és ilyeneket írnak mellé (egy csöppnyi irónia nélkül): „A hegyen a csend semmi másra nem hasonlít.”
Kalvo – mivel mindig számol azzal, hogy esetleg ő tévedhet – elhatározza, hogy megfejti, mi olyan nagy pláne a túrázásban. Tényleg érdemes minden más szórakozást feladni és a város meghitt fényeit egy világvégi, nyirkos hüttére cserélni, aminek Szúnyogszállás a neve? Fogja hát magát, vásárol egy rakás nevetségesen drága túracuccot, és elindul a vadonba.
Vajon megadja magát a természet vonzerejének? Vagy inkább megkeresi odakint a régi barátait, hazarángatja őket, aztán együtt elmennek valahová, ahol meleg van, és sört is csapolnak?
A Legyek Ura
Golding a második világháborúban szerzett tapasztalatait felhasználva a tudata, a lelke, a zsigerei mélyén megbújó ősi, vad ösztönökre ráébredő és az atomháború árnyékában élő ember félelmeit jeleníti meg példázatában vagy mítoszregényében: egy hátborzongatóan izgalmas és kegyetlen történetben, melynek hősei tíz-tizenkét éves angol fiúk.
A világban háború dúl, s a fiúk repülőgép-szerencsétlenség következtében egy lakatlan szigetre kerülnek, távol a civilizációtól - amely talán éppen elpusztul -, s megpróbálnak értelmes rendet, társadalmat kialakítani. És őrzik a tüzet, mert ez az egyetlen útja a menekülésnek.
Sokáig kellemes, szinte idilli játéknak tetszik az egész: a jól nevelt angol fiúk ragyogóan megbirkóznak a nehézségekkel, s követik Ralphot, a született vezetőt, aki tüzet gyújt, és expedíciót vezet a sziget felderítésére. Ám az idillben - eleinte szinte észrevétlenül - sokasodnak a bajok: a vezérszerepre pályázó Jack nem hajlandó engedelmeskedni Ralphnak, és a fiúk közül egyre többen állnak mellé, s imádják vele együtt a Legyek Urát.
