From the New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six, Girl Dinner is a darkly-fun novel about power, lust, and eating your fill, as wealthy moms and sorority girls practice a sinister new wellness trend . . .
Good girls deserve a treat.
Every member of The House, the most exclusive sorority on campus, and all its alumni, are beautiful, high-achieving, and universally respected.
After a freshman year she would rather forget, sophomore Nina Kaur knows being one of the chosen few accepted into The House is the first step in her path to the brightest possible future.
Once she’s taken into their fold, the House will surely ease her fears of failure and protect her from those who see a young woman on her own as easy prey.
Meanwhile, adjunct professor Dr. Sloane Hartley is struggling to return to work after accepting a demotion to support her partner’s new position at the cutthroat University.
After 18 months at home with her newborn daughter, Sloane’s clothes don’t fit right, her girl-dad husband isn’t as present as he thinks he is, and even the few hours a day she’s apart from her child fill her psyche with paralyzing ennui. When invited to be The House’s academic liaison, Sloane enviously drinks in the way the alumnae seem to have it all, achieving a level of collective perfection that Sloane so desperately craves.
As Nina and Sloane each get drawn deeper into the arcane rituals of the sisterhood, they learn that living well comes with bloody costs. And when they are finally invited to the table, they will have to decide just how much they can stomach in the name of solidarity and power.

Ze is de bestverkopende misdaadauteur ter wereld. Nu is ze zelf een moordverdachte.
NYPD-rechercheur Declan Shaw krijgt om 21.42 uur een telefoontje van zijn luitenant: Hoe snel kan je bij 211 Central Park West zijn? Het Beresfordgebouw.
Voor appartement 18a wordt Shaw gebriefd door zijn partner. De vrouw belde het alarmnummer om een inbraak te melden – en de moord op haar man. Ze vuurde een kogel af op hulpverleners en deed vervolgens een verbijsterende eis: niemand komt binnen, behalve rechercheur Declan Shaw.
De vrouw doet open, haar lichaam bedekt met bloed. Ze lijkt in shock. Er ligt een lichaam op de vloer van de luxe woonkamer. Elk boek in de plafondhoge boekenkasten is van dezelfde auteur: Denise Morrow, truecrimebestsellerauteur.
‘Ben jij dit?’ vraagt Shaw. ‘Ben je een schrijver?’
De echte vraag is: is ze ook een moordenaar?
Orla Kennedy is al zolang ze zich kan herinneren verliefd op haar beste vriend Shay Lucas, maar ze weet zeker dat deze liefde niet wederzijds is. Sinds hun eerste ontmoeting op veertienjarige leeftijd in Apple Hill Bay voelt ze zich met hem verbonden, en onder de sterren van Cranberry Cove groeide haar stille liefde. Behalve één magische kerst, waarin ze even hoopte dat hij misschien hetzelfde voelde, heeft ze haar gevoelens verborgen gehouden – liever zijn vriendschap dan helemaal niets. Maar wat als Shay meer voelt dan hij laat blijken en zijn hart met een reden gesloten houdt? Deze kerst zou het lot hun levens wel eens op z’n kop kunnen zetten, en hen dwingen de liefde onder ogen te zien die ze al die jaren verborgen hielden. ‘De kerstmagie van Cranberry Cove’ is deel drie in de Apple Hill Bay-serie van Holly Martin, ideaal voor liefhebbers van feelgood!

“Exquisite and devastating. It won’t fail to move you.” –Shelley Parker-Chan, #1 bestselling author of She Who Became the Sun
Inspired by the legend of Xishi, one of the famous Four Beauties of Ancient China, A Song to Drown Rivers is an epic novel steeped in myth about womanhood, war, sacrifice, and love against all odds as the fate of two kingdoms hangs in a delicate balance.
Her beauty hides a deadly purpose.
Xishi’s beauty is seen as a blessing to the villagers of Yue–convinced that the best fate for a girl is to marry well and support her family. When Xishi draws the attention of the famous young military advisor, Fanli, he presents her with a rare opportunity: to use her beauty as a weapon. One that could topple the rival neighboring kingdom of Wu, improve the lives of her people, and avenge her sister’s murder. All she has to do is infiltrate the enemy palace as a spy, seduce their immoral king, and weaken them from within.
Trained by Fanli in everything from classical instruments to concealing emotion, Xishi hones her beauty into the perfect blade. But she knows Fanli can see through every deception she masters, the attraction between them burning away any falsehoods.
Once inside the enemy palace, Xishi finds herself under the hungry gaze of the king’s advisors while the king himself shows her great affection. Despite his gentleness, a brutality lurks and Xishi knows she can never let her guard down. But the higher Xishi climbs in the Wu court, the farther she and Fanli have to fall–and if she is unmasked as a traitor, she will bring both kingdoms down.

A secret song. A hidden fortress. A world on the brink of war.
After the long, despotic reign under the evil sorceress, Sawyn, life in the Golden Court is finally rebuilding. New leadership means new beginnings, and Sadie Rauxtide–now a royal guard–has been grappling with how she’ll fit into her new home. But when a rival Wolf king, Nero, kidnaps the Queen’s friend and mentor Ora, any hopes for peace are lost.
The Golden Court springs into action, and Sadie is tasked with an important mission: travel with Navin and Maez to try to win new allies and uncover Nero’s hidden secrets. Yet Navin has secrets of his own, and Sadie is tasked with uncovering them while battling her growing attraction to the man who betrayed her. She has a mission, but the heart wants what it wants. And fate? Fate has its own magic, and it’s one more thing out of her control.
Meanwhile, Queen Calla is forced to seek help from the Ice Wolf pack in order to stop Nero’s prejudicial rule. However, the Queen of Taigos makes Calla’s objectives impossible with their capricious relationship standing in the way–completely unwilling to commit in helping Calla rescue Ora and repeatedly dismissing Calla’s new gender identity.

Tensions rise on both fronts as Sadie and Calla struggle to gain support for the brewing war and realize that the world of Aotreas is more than it seems.

From USA Today and Wall St. Journal bestselling author Emma Scott comes an all-new emotional, angsty coming-of-age love story perfect for fans of Jennifer Hartmann and Laura Nowlin.
At ten years old, they promised each other forever.
But his letters never came. And her heart never healed.
Seven years later, Xander Ford returns to Castle Hill Academy, broken by grief and hiding behind logic, rowing, and the weight of caring for his sick father. He never stopped thinking of Emery Wallace, the kind girl who once saw him when no one else did.

When fate pulls them back together, the connection they shared as kids flares into something undeniable and impossible to ignore. Emery shows Xander that people, like light, can be both shattered and whole. And Xander gives Emery a reason to believe in herself again.
But their love faces obstacles they can’t control–family expectations, broken promises, and the cruel truth that not everyone wants them together.
Some loves are once-in-a-lifetime. The question is: can theirs keep them in the light?

But when my dark past comes back to haunt me, I’m in a race against time to save the only woman I’ve ever loved. Only, it may be the demons that have been chasing her that destroy what we built…

A sparkling debut fantasy with Celtic tones set on the magical isle of Cadence where two childhood enemies must team up to discover why girls are going missing from their clan. Enchantments run deep on the magical Isle of Cadence.
The capricious spirits that live there find mirth in the lives of the humans who call the land home, but that mischief turns to malevolence as girls begin to go missing.

But there’s only one bard capable of drawing the spirits forth by song: her childhood enemy, Jack Tamerlaine.
He hasn’t stepped foot on Cadence in ten long years, content to study music at the Mainland university. But as Jack and Adaira reluctantly work together it becomes apparent the trouble with the spirits is far more sinister than first thought and an older, darker secret lurks beneath the surface, threatening to undo them all. ‘An alluring and rich tale, at once a fast-paced mystery and a love story as warm as a hearth’ Ava Reid, bestselling author of The Wolf and the Woodsman
Ready to fall for the ultimate player? Check out the latest sports romance by New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy, now with exclusive bonus material.
Ace Townsend is the biggest player on campus. The sexy new quarterback on the football team. I should probably mention he’s also a complete flirt. The life of the party wherever he goes. Someone I should avoid at all costs. It’s difficult though, when I’m on the social media crew for the football team and we’re out on the field during practice almost every day, filming them. On the sidelines at games. Hanging out with them at bars. The more I spend time with Ace, the more I’m drawn to him. The attraction is there, but it’s more than that. I actually like him. We have a connection, and he definitely feels it too. The problem? I signed a contract when I started on the social media team with a ‘no dating athletes’ clause. They’re strictly off limits. If we get caught together? It’s cause for my immediate termination. I love my new job and don’t want to risk it, but I’m falling for Ace. Hard. We’re all for sneaking around and keeping our growing relationship secret, but it’s starting to wear on us. Ace is determined to win me at all costs, though he doesn’t want to be the reason I lose my job, but… Maybe the two of us being together is worth the risk.
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Vi Keeland comes a sexy enemies-to-lovers standalone for fans of Lauren Asher and Ana Huang.

Now, fate has trapped Sophia and Weston together in the one place neither of them can escape: the world’s most luxurious hotel, left jointly to their grandfathers by the woman at the center of the scandal.
Weston is arrogant, cocky, infuriating, and annoyingly gorgeous. Sophia wants to hate him. Needs to hate him. But every heated argument ends with them in the same place: tangled in sheets instead of strategy.
What begins as family rivalry turns into stolen kisses, fiery encounters, and a passion too strong to ignore. But when pride, legacy, and love are on the line, will they keep fighting the war their families started, or surrender to the one thing they can’t resist?

Magic awakens. Darkness swells. A hero rises–and she’s ready to fight… New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan is back with an all-new epic romantasy set in the high-stakes world of A Fire in the Sky.
It’s been a year since Tamsyn transformed. From royal whipping girl in the palace of Penterra to the bride of Fell, the Beast of the Borderlands. From the enemy in the Beast’s bed to the wife he sacrificed himself to save. From an ordinary girl…to a dragon. And not just any dragon–a powerful fire-breather…and the best hope to keep magic from flickering out forever.
With Fell gone, torn from her side in the dangerous swirling mists of the Crags, Tamsyn is heartbroken and alone among the dragon pride. An unwelcome outsider still learning to survive in this fiery skin of hers within a new cutthroat society, she trains in the arena until her muscles burn and her blood spills. Slowly, Tamsyn forges herself into a warrior in the shadow of Fell’s enigmatic brother, Vetr, whose silver eyes track her with distrust…and maybe something more.
But is Fell truly beyond her reach? Their bond pulls at her, as fiercely as the drive to protect both humans and dragonkind from the growing threat posed by Stig, once her closest friend, now a relentless enemy determined to hunt her down and destroy her–and with her, all things magic.
Magic stirs in the darkness, strengthening all who believe in it. But will it be enough to save Tamsyn, the pride, the kingdom…and a fiery love fated to endure for centuries, as deep as a scar in the bone?

Freddie Gellar didn’t mean to get half the rival high school arrested. She’d simply heard shrieks coming from the woods, so she’d called the cops like any good human would do.
How was she supposed to know it was just kids partying?Except the next day, a body is found. And while the local sheriff might call it suicide, Freddie’s instincts tell her otherwise. So, like the aspiring sleuth (and true X-Files aficionado) she is, Freddie sets out to prove there’s a murderer at large.
But her investigation is quickly disrupted by the rivalry between her school and the school of the partying teens she got arrested. For over twenty years now, the two student bodies have had an ongoing prank war, and Freddie’s failed attempt at Good Samaritanism has upped the ante. Big time.
Worse, the clever-and gorgeous-leader of the rival prank squad has set his sights on Freddie. As more pranks unfurl, more bodies also start piling up in the forest. But it’s the supernatural warning signs around town-each plucked straight from an old forgotten poem called “The Executioners Three”-that worry Freddie the most.
She knows the poem and its blood curse can’t be real, but she’s quickly running out of time to prove it. Because the murderer-or executioners?-knows she’s onto them now, and their next target might just be Freddie.

But a string of peculiar incidents prompts Daphne to suspect that she and her friends are being sent messages – or threats – related to the disappearance of a classmate twenty years ago. It was a mystery which clouded their final year at the school – and one which Daphne, as a budding eighteen-year-old sleuth, solved.
When, the morning after the reunion, one of Daphne’s old school friends is found dead, Daphne finds herself in the role of investigator once more. Are the two cases linked? And has Daphne learned from the mistakes of her past?
Elly haat kerst. Na een traumatische gebeurtenis drie jaar geleden doet ze er alles aan om de kerstperiode zo snel mogelijk door te komen en weer te vergeten. Dat gaat alleen lastig door haar werk bij GreatGardens, het tuincentrum met de grootste kerstshow van Nederland. Door een paar stomme keuzes werkt ze hier fulltime en dus draait Elly’s leven maandenlang om niets anders dan kerstbomen, kersthuisjes en kerstversiering. Nicks toekomst ligt al vast: na het afronden van zijn studie moet hij werken in het bedrijf van zijn vader en zich voorbereiden op de overname hiervan. Een probleem: Nick heeft niets met computers, software en data. Om zichzelf wat meer tijd te geven, besluit hij bij GreatGardens aan de slag te gaan. Hij komt terecht op de afdeling van Elly, die echt niet zit te wachten op een onervaren, jonge kracht om de kerstafdeling mee op te bouwen. Maar ja, met een groot personeelstekort heeft ze weinig keus, toch? Tegenpolen Nick en Elly hebben elkaar keihard nodig om alles op tijd af te hebben voor de grote opening. Ondertussen zorgen een spontaan tripje naar Duitsland, een onverwacht bezoek aan de Spoedeisende Hulp en een vechtpartij op de werkvloer ervoor dat Elly en Nick steeds verder naar elkaar toe groeien en dat de kersthaat misschien wel verandert in… liefde?
ALL WILL BURN . . .
Mare is a prisoner, powerless without her lightning, tormented by her mistakes. She lives at the mercy of a boy she once loved, a boy made of lies and betrayal. Maven is a king, continuing to weave his web in an attempt to maintain control over his country – and his prisoner.
But while Mare remains trapped in the palace, the remnants of the rebellion are organising and expanding. As they prepare for war, no longer able to linger in the shadows, Cal – the exiled prince with his own claim on Mare’s heart – will stop at nothing to bring her back.
Broken Throne features three brand-new novellas, alongside two previously published novellas – Steel Scars and Queen Song – as well as never-before-seen maps, flags, bonus scenes, journal entries, and much more.
VICTORY COMES AT A PRICE . . .
Mare learned this all too well when Cal’s betrayal nearly destroyed her. Now determined to protect her heart – and secure her freedom – she resolves to overthrow the kingdom of Norta once and for all . . . starting with the crown on Maven’s head. But no battle is won alone, and before the Reds may rise as one, Mare must side with the boy who broke her heart in order to defeat the boy who almost broke her.
Cal’s powerful Silver allies, alongside Mare and the Scarlet Guard, prove a formidable force. But Maven is driven by an obsession so deep he will stop at nothing to have Mare as his own again, even if it means demolishing everything – and everyone – in his path.
I WAS BORN TO KILL A KING, TO END A REIGN OF TERROR BEFORE IT CAN EVER TRULY BEGIN . . .
If there’s one thing Mare Barrow knows, it’s that she’s different. Mare’s blood is Red – the colour of common folk – but her Silverblood ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court is desperate to control over all else. Pursued by the vengeful Silver king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other defectors to join the rebellion.
But she is soon led down a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying so hard to defeat.
