Vina is a knight of the Queen’s court. When the two women begin to fall for each other, how can they surrender to their desires, when to give in is to destroy each other?As they seek a way to break the cycle, a mysterious assassin begins targeting tales like theirs. To survive, the two will need to write a story stronger than the one that fate has given to them.

In this sizzling sapphic romance, sparks fly between a sports journalist and her latest source—the first woman to be named head coach of a D1 men’s basketball team—but are they willing to risk their careers for a shot at love?
When Jordan D’Amato becomes the first woman named head coach of a top-level men’s college basketball team, journalist Caroline Beck is determined to get the story. After years of scraping her way into the world of sports reporting, Beck knows that snagging the first one-on-one interview with the elusive head coach could be her big break. But Jordan is wary of the media and the attention her historic new appointment attracts, especially as her boss makes it clear that it’s a temporary assignment—and if she doesn’t lead the team to victory, it won’t become permanent.
Beck’s persistence, however, charms Jordan and she agrees to sit down for an interview. The two women have undeniable chemistry—but journalists definitely can’t fall for sources, and Jordan certainly can’t fully trust the ambitious reporter who has every reason to use her team secrets for the next big scoop. Though they both know it would ruin their reputations and likely also cost them their jobs if anyone found out they were romantically involved, they can’t seem to stay away from each other.
With the national tournament in sight and both of their careers on the line, they must decide whether to take the shot on their budding love story—or walk away from the risky game they’ve been playing for good.

Het baanbrekende vampierenverhaal van New York Times-bestsellerauteur George R.R. Martin, bekend van Game of Thrones.
Winter 1857. Abner Marsh heeft grote moeite werk te vinden als kapitein van een rivierstomer op de Mississippi. Als een rijke aristocraat hem onverwacht een lucratief aanbod doet, is Abner meteen op zijn hoede. De reden? De spookachtig bleke Joshua York met zijn kille blik gaat er volledig aan voorbij dat Abners vloot op één boot na compleet is vergaan tijdens een ongewoon strenge winter. Het laat hem bovendien onverschillig dat hij zijn investering de komende tien jaar niet zal terugverdienen. Wat wel zijn redenen zijn om de gevaarlijke Mississippi op te gaan, vertelt hij niet – en de enige voorwaarde die hij stelt, is dat Marsh zijn afwijkende gedrag zonder vragen te stellen accepteert, hoe bizar, willekeurig of bevreemdend dat gedrag ook mag zijn. Abner gaat aarzelend akkoord, misschien tegen beter weten in.
Pas tijdens de eerste reis met de Fevre Dream dringt het langzaam maar zeker tot hem door dat hij een overeenkomst is aangegaan waarvan de afloop heel onzeker is.

After seven long years, Joan Greenwood has been called home. As the only one in her elite family of witches who cannot manipulate magic, her return to New York City is lukewarm at best. But it’s upended by the disastrous news that someone has created a spell that can turn an unmagical human into a powerful witch.

But as the different factions of the magic world hunt Joan across the city, she gathers a new family of allies to help her.
Soon, her race to the truth draws her deeper into the heart of the city’s magic, through uncertain alliances with a (very attractive) family rival, and far beyond the limits of everything she thought her own magic was capable of.

Certainty Bulrush wants to be useful—to the Guild of Mages that took her in as a novice, to the little brother who depends on her, and to anyone else she can help. Unfortunately, her tepid magic hasn’t proven much use to anyone. When Certainty has the chance to earn her magehood via a seemingly straightforward assignment, she takes it.

The two must transport minorly magical artifacts somewhere safe: Shpelling, the dullest, least magical village around. There, they must fix up an old warehouse, separate the gossipy teapots from the kind-of-flaming swords, corral an unruly little catdragon who has tagged along, and above all: avoid complications. The Guild’s uneasy relationship with citizens is at a tipping point, and the last thing needed is a magical incident.
Still, as mage and novice come to know Shpelling’s residents—and each other—they realize the Guild’s hoarded magic might do more good being shared. Friendships blossom while Certainty and Aurelia work to make Shpelling the haven it could be. But magic is fickle—add attraction and it might spell trouble.

One fake dating plan.
One cowboy Casanova.
One very real case of falling way too hard.
Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup–a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin’ hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice.
He’s exactly what she’s looking for. If only he wasn’t also her best friend…
Sally Powell is back in her hometown of Harstville, Texas, waiting for her dream job to start thousands of miles away. While she’s here, she hopes to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.
Wyatt has been her best friend since second grade, and she’s been in love with him for almost as long. But he’s as wild and untamed as a colt that can’t be broken–not to mention, totally out of her league with his good looks and heartbreaker reputation.
Then Sally gets to thinking: since Wyatt is such an expert, why doesn’t he teach her the ropes of how to find a hookup? He begrudgingly agrees, and a little fake flirting leads to fake dating, which leads to real kissing, which leads to real…well, everything else.
And let her just say, the rumors are absolutely true.
Sally wants so badly to be Wyatt’s last rodeo. But she’s leaving town soon, and even if she wasn’t, she’s not sure Wyatt would ever change his playboy ways.
Cowboys can’t be tamed. And apparently, neither can hearts.
Wyatt is an interconnected standalone novel in the Lucky River Ranch series, perfect for fans of Elsie Silver and Lyla Sage.

Will he rope the moon for her? Or is her heart destined to be trampled all over again?
As a recently divorced single mom, Ava Bartlett has zero interest in flirting with guys on a weekend away with her sisters. She just wants to have fun and listen to live music at a honky tonk.
But when she literally stumbles into the most gorgeous guy ever on the dance floor, those plans go up in smoke. Growing up on the barrel racing circuit, Ava’s seen her fair share of sexy cowboys. But this particular one is hot as hell: Sawyer’s got a mustache, tattoos, and a very filthy mouth.
Needless to say, they end up naked in his swanky hotel room. And the way Sawyer treats her like a queen? A girl could get used to that kind of adoration.
Good thing he’ll only be a one-night stand Ava can look back on with a smile. She’s rebuilding her life from scratch, and she needs to focus on her three-year-old daughter and the dream job she just landed.
Imagine her surprise, then, when she moves to Hartsville and runs into a familiar tattooed cowboy with an adorable daughter of his own.
Sawyer wants more than the occasional playdates between their girls, and the closer they become, the more determined this sexy single dad is to keep her forever. And as much as Ava’s falling for Sawyer, she’s been down this road before with her ex, and she wonders if she can truly trust a cowboy like him.
