He’s got all the right moves.
And makes…all the wrong plays.
Will Aster excels at two things: soccer and self-sabotage. Following a viral incident involving him and the club owner’s wife, his only option to continue playing is overseas on FC Kluvberg–a team known for not tolerating scandal. A last chance and a harsh wake-up call.
Sophia Beck has spent her life avoiding football. Growing up in the shadow of her family’s stratospheric success in the sport left scars. About to begin her final year of university, she’s eager to pursue a career in photography, not receive an internship assignment involving her brother’s team. The last thing she expects is to meet a guy–a player–who makes her want to watch a game.
He loves soccer.
She resents it.
Those contrary viewpoints collide when Will and Sophia discover something stronger than their conflicting emotions toward the sport–their feelings for each other.
But…one wrong play can cost the game.
And wrong plays are Will’s specialty.

DELUXE EDITION–a beautiful hardcover edition featuring dark teal sprayed edges, a foil stamp on the casing, and full-page illustrations!
From Alix E. Harrow, the New York Times bestselling author of Starling House, comes a moving and genre-defying quest about the lady-knight whose legend built a nation, and the cowardly historian sent back through time to make sure she plays her part-even if it breaks his heart.
Sir Una Everlasting was Dominion’s greatest hero: the orphaned girl who became a knight, who died for queen and country. Her legend lives on in songs and stories, in children’s books and recruiting posters–but her life as it truly happened has been forgotten.
Centuries later, Owen Mallory–failed soldier, struggling scholar–falls in love with the tale of Una Everlasting. Her story takes him to war, to the archives–and then into the past itself. Una and Owen are tangled together in time, bound to retell the same story over and over again, no matter what it costs.
But that story always ends the same way. If they want to rewrite Una’s legend–if they want to tell a different story–they’ll have to rewrite history itself.
“Alix E. Harrow is an exceptional, undeniable talent.” –Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six
An utter masterpiece…I loved every single page. –Rachel Gillig, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of One Dark Window

Enter the isle of Cadence in this Scottish-inspired fantasy brimming with enemies-to-lovers romance, magic and spirits, and a captivating mystery.
It starts with a letter and an ominous journey across dark waters. Ten years after being sent away to the mainland to become a bard, Jack Tamerlaine is summoned home to Cadence. Girls are going missing from the island, and Adaira, his childhood nemesis and the future leader of the clan, believes Jack is the only one who can find them.
The elemental spirits that dwell in every breath of air, splash of water, blade of grass, and flicker of fire find mirth in the lives of the humans, and a bard’s music is the only way to summon them and ask that the girls be returned. Yet as Jack and Adaira get closer to solving the mystery, it becomes apparent that an older, darker secret about Cadence lurks beneath the surface, and no harp song may be strong enough to stop it.
With unforgettable characters, a thrilling plot, and a lush folklore-infused world, A River Enchanted is a stirring story of duty, love, and creating harmony between opposing forces. This first book in the Elements of Cadence duology marks Rebecca Ross’s brilliant entry on the adult fantasy stage.

Niemand kent die naam, maar de echo ervan zaait achterdocht in de zalen en mijnen van het IJzerrijk. Aan de grenzen nemen de schermutselingen met de elfen toe, terwijl angst en verdeeldheid onder de dwergen groeien. Thalon Saffierhamer, raadgever van de koning, krijgt de opdracht om Vyrillia te stoppen.

Samen met een onwaarschijnlijk gezelschap van dwergen, een elf, een halfling en een aeran begint hij aan een gevaarlijke queeste. Terwijl Vyrillia’s dreiging steeds groter wordt en storm en bliksem boven de stadspoorten samenpakken, dreigt alles waarvoor Thalon gevochten heeft in één klap verloren te gaan. Een verhaal over moed, opoffering en de kracht van een onverwacht gezelschap. Stormhart is een oorspronkelijk Nederlandstalige epische high fantasy standalone vol draken, dwergen, profetieën en vriendschap. Voor lezers van The Hobbit, Eragon en Forgotten Realms.

A little beast maybe, but not a monster.’ Nizzara has always been able to perceive spirits better than the average caster.
When she enters a deadly tournament to end her betrothal, she’s determined to win without succumbing to the addictive spirit magic she channels or taking a life in the duel ring. Finding herself outmatched, Nizzara must face her fear of power and team up with Dagen – an enemy who is half-ghost and all charm – to survive the tournament. Dagen, the last King of Zarr, was killed by Nizzara’s father ten years ago.
Now a half-ghost – able to phase between his human and spirit form – he is stuck in another realm, hunting wretched souls. When his keeper offers him a chance to reclaim his freedom in exchange for Nizzara’s soul, Dagen takes the deal. There’s only one catch: she must freely give it to him by the tournament’s end or his own soul is forfeit.
Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and The Serpent and the Wings of Night, Vesselless is a spellbinding fantasy of magic and intrigue – and a tantalizing slow burn that will have you hooked until the very last page.
