Řekni ano tomu pravému - Wedding Dreams 3
Romantika je pro začátečníky. To je Willowino motto. Pracuje sice jako fotografka ve svatební agentuře, ale to neznamená, že musí věřit ve velkou osudovou lásku. Proto má pro svůj románek s atraktivním Sethem jen jedno pravidlo: Sex ano, líbání zakázáno. Prostě striktní přátelství s výhodami! A navíc je to přece sen všech mužů, nebo ne?! Zábava bez závazků a povinností… Ale Seth není jako ostatní muži. Je upřímný, věrný a zároveň pekelně sexy. Chce Willow buď celou... nebo vůbec.

The Story of Birds
Billions of birds share the planet with us. With their flamboyant plumage and joyous dawn serenades, many of them are impossible to miss. But how did they get here, how did they break the bounds of Earth and begin to fly, and how does their legacy shape our world?
In delightfully energetic prose, expert palaeontologist Steve Brusatte takes us through their 150-million-year history, from their origins among small carnivorous dinosaurs to the 10,000-plus species that thrive today. Along the way, we meet fantastic birds from all around the world, some known only through fossils. There are elephant birds that stand as high as a basketball hoop and lay eggs as big as watermelons; demon ducks that weigh more than cows; aeroplane-sized seabirds that soar the world’s thermals; and predatory penguins the size of gorillas.
Lively, majestic and full of wonder, The Story of Birds will ensure you never see birds the same way again.
Amid Clouds and Bones
A princess is determined to survive an arranged marriage to a heartless fae prince in this stand-alone enemies-to-lovers romantasy perfect for fans of Devney Perry and LJ Andrews.
Mildred may be a princess, but she’s also half fae in a kingdom of humans. She’s spent her years tucked out of sight…until the Seelie Court seeks an alliance. The key? Mildred’s hand in marriage to none other than Prince Atakan the Heartless.
The Seelie prince loathes everyone—but nobody more than his betrothed. In the lead-up to their nuptials, each encounter grows more terrifying than the last as Atakan proves to be as heartless as he is beautiful.
Fear would only doom Mildred faster. So she learns to hide it behind deadly games she soon finds herself happy to play. Mildred isn’t supposed to crave a monster—or sink to his level. But just when she thinks she may be capable of taming the untamable, fate intervenes…and delivers her straight to Atakan’s enemy.

From Life Itself
Pulitzer finalist Suzy Hansen chronicles the age of authoritarianism in Turkey - through an intimate portrait of its people
In the midst of a world in upheaval, Erdogan has remade Turkey in his own image. Once a shining portal that straddled East and West, Istanbul's streets now teem with nationalistic fervour, political repression and rampant corruption. And it's here, in the old Ottoman neighbourhood of Karagumruk, that Suzy Hansen goes looking for the truth about modern Turkey.
Through the lives of its inhabitants, Hansen shows how local conflicts are spiralling into regional crises, deepening the fault lines now fracturing Europe and the Middle East. A dazzling account of a nation on the frontlines of history, From Life Itself chronicles the rise of an autocrat, the resurrection of an empire - and the human stories unfolding in its shadow.
The Power and the Glory
The football World Cup is the most watched sporting event on the planet. It has become a global obsession: 211 nations initially entered the 2022 edition. It has been running for almost a century. Yet there has never been a comprehensive history of the World Cup that has considered not only the matches and goals, the players and coaches, the tales of scandal and genius, the haggling and skulduggery of the bidding process, but has also placed the tournaments within a socio-political framework. The story of the World Cup is also the story of the world; this book tells its definitive history.
