She ran to save her life. Now the man she once betrayed is her only hope.

Home to both the Resting Warrior Ranch and Pawsitive Connections, Garnet Bend, Montana is a small town full of big heroes. Anyone would want to live there.

Anybody but Piper Matthews.

She swore she'd never come back after what her father did to the town and what she did to Sheriff Lachlan Calloway. But desperation has a way of rewriting promises. With a baby in her arms and nowhere left to run, Piper returns to the only place that ever felt like home.

Lachlan never expected to see Piper again-especially not with a child that has his eyes. The woman who once disappeared without a word is now sleeping under his roof, guarding more secrets than she's willing to share.

She says she's done running. But Piper's past is closing in fast-and it's darker, more dangerous, and more tangled up in Lachlan's world than he could ever imagine.

In a town built on quiet loyalty and buried lies, the truth is about to break everything wide open.

A New York Times bestselling poetry collection from Clint Smith, author of #1 bestseller and National Book Critics Circle Award winner How the Word Is Passed.

"A joyful embrace and legacy of bright language and poignant questions." --Aimee Nezhukumatathil, author of World of Wonders

Clint Smith's vibrant and compelling new collection traverses the vast emotional terrain of fatherhood, and explores how becoming a parent has recalibrated his sense of the world. There are poems that interrogate the ways our lives are shaped by both personal lineages and historical institutions. There are poems that revel in the wonder of discovering the world anew through the eyes of your children, as they discover it for the first time. There are poems that meditate on what it means to raise a family in a world filled with constant social and political tumult. Above Ground wrestles with how we hold wonder and despair in the same hands, how we carry intimate moments of joy and a collective sense of mourning in the same body. Smith's lyrical, narrative poems bring the reader on a journey not only through the early years of his children's lives, but through the changing world in which they are growing up--through the changing world of which we are all a part.

Above Ground is a breathtaking collection that follows Smith's first award-winning book of poetry, Counting Descent.

A Best Book of the Year 2023: TIME - NPR's Best Books - New York Public Library - Electric Lit - The Root - NBC Today - Mother Jones

Thanks to Tamao's supernatural powers, Seimei and the gang find themselves transported over a hundred years back in time! There, Hatanaka is faced with the vast gap between his and his future wife Ibara's lifespans, prompting him to declare that he's giving up on her for good. Can this rift be repaired before everyone returns to their proper time...?

A lyric reckoning with the radical possibility of joy.

Jonathan Bailey maps the process of transformation, weaving themes of longing, belonging, and self-discovery. Set against the beauty of the West where the buzz of cicadas and the song of the hermit thrush echo across the desert, the collection draws power from the land's ability to hold both desolation and renewal. Bailey's poems embrace contradiction as essential to healing, refusing to separate pain from beauty or vulnerability from strength. Rather than offering closure, the collection reveals how wholeness is forged through emotional risk and the clarity gained by facing oneself fully.

Discover the epic series that helped break new ground in adult graphic novels with Total THB Volume 2. This is the second in a three-volume collection of Paul Pope's visionary cult classic.

HR Watson is free. With the help of her loyal but enigmatic bodyguard, THB, she has fled her home, escaped the government agents on her tail, crossed the red deserts of Mars, and found shelter with a rag-tag band of bohemian musicians. But can HR evade her wealthy father's enemies long enough to carve out a life for herself in a thrilling, unpredictable new city?

Over thirty years since its debut, the sci-fi world of THB--with its unique blend of elements from American comics, European graphic novels, and Japanese manga--continues to inspire loyal readership and critical acclaim. Now for the first time, New York Times-bestselling author and Eisner Award-winner Paul Pope's sprawling vision is gathered in three definitive editions, featuring exclusive new material.

A narrative sequence of lyric poems reimagining Joan of Arc as a framework for queer identity, transformation, and poetic voice.

Collapsing biography and autobiography, the poetry of Jake Rose's debut explores queer identity, grief, and desire through the historical framework of Joan of Arc's life. Moving through rural landscapes of the speaker's youth, contradictions of faith, consequences of desire, and fragmentations of trauma, JOAN is structured as an excavation of the speaker's most intimate moments, combining poetry with historical quotations, visual collage, and a sequence of film stills. Through vivid lyric moments, the poems construct a speaker and world both intimate and charged­--"I have to touch my farthest feeling," "the sapphire dusk draping its lace arias"--with clarity and vibrant intensity. Refusing resolution, these poems dwell in rupture, reinvention, and fluid forms of gender that come to life outside of inherited boundaries. This collection speaks from the margins, searching for a body the self might inhabit and asking what it means to transform through language, gender, and desire.

JOAN is the winner of the Phoenix Emerging Poet Book Prize.

The poems in Chelsey Minnis's Opera Fever read like a dangerous bodice-ripper, glamorous and haunted. From the covid claustrophobia in which they were written, these poems sharply maneuver from steamy observations to gravitas (and then some groaning under the fur coats../Let's be very hard on veils.. / Like a dark summer with too many funerals...). In movements that feel delightfully restless and darkly romantic, we readers are lucky to be caught in their quake.

Some grudges run so deep they can kill.
