King Sorrow
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Joe Hill, a chilling tale of modern-world dangers, dark academia, and the unexpected consequences of revenge as six friends dabble in the occult and are tragically, horrifyingly successful... calling forth an evil entity that demands regular human sacrifice.
"A brilliantly Faustian fable with a heart as huge as a dragon's, and a stinging twist in its tail. I devoured it." --Ruth Ware, New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in Suite 11
Arthur Oakes is a reader, a dreamer, and a student at Rackham College, Maine, renowned for its frosty winters, exceptional library, and beautiful buildings. But his idyll--and burgeoning romance with Gwen Underfoot--is shattered when a local drug dealer and her partner corner him into one of the worst crimes he can imagine: stealing rare books from the college library.
Trapped and desperate, Arthur turns to his closest friends for comfort and help. Together they dream up a wild, fantastical scheme to free Arthur from the cruel trap in which he finds himself. Wealthy, irrepressible Colin Wren suggests using the unnerving Crane journal (bound in the skin of its author) to summon a dragon to do their bidding. The others--brave, beautiful Alison Shiner; the battling twins Donna and Donovan McBride; and brainy, bold Gwen--don't hesitate to join Colin in an effort to smash reality and bring a creature of the impossible into our world.
But there's nothing simple about dealing with dragons, and their pact to save Arthur becomes a terrifying bargain in which the six must choose a new sacrifice for King Sorrow every year--or become his next meal.

Lie of Having It All
From a young age, child star-turned pop star Willa Stone knew "having it all" was a myth. The truth is, at some point, you have to choose what you really want in life: a career or a love life, fame or friends, success or peace. Knowing her true purpose in life is to create music and perform, she's long accepted that her life would always be on display, and every moment would revolve around building the brand. Even her relationships are manufactured, a lifetime of fake PR relationships in order to build interest in her next album.
When she's instructed to hide from the limelight for a while, she isn't sure what to do with herself. That is, until she stumbles into Holly Ridge. There, she starts daydreaming about finding balance and, for the first time in her life, having it all.
After a health scare made him realize he was living for nothing but his job, Leo Sinclaire is out to find balance in his life. This starts with buying a rundown house, connecting with the roots he's ignored since becoming a cutthroat publicist to some of the world's biggest stars, and, most importantly, being alone.
Unfortunately, he quickly finds that if he wants to be alone, Holly Ridge is the wrong choice. That peaceful existence completely evaporates when he discovers his biggest client-and biggest headache-has the same small town as her place to hide away. He spends time trying to keep her in line, both for his job and his sanity, but after a while, old feelings start to surface, and even though dating a client is strictly forbidden, he can't seem to stop thinking about her.
What happens when those thoughts turn into trying to figure out if they can have it all, together?

Thorns We Inherit
This lush dark gothic fantasy debut by Lindsey Hart weaves haunting worldbuilding, goddess-blessed magic, and an aching slow-burn romance into a story of legacy, devotion, and survival. Perfect for fans of V.E. Schwab, Rachel Gillig, and Hannah Whitten-and for readers who crave gothic fantasy steeped in tension, magic, and emotional depth.
Aurelia Moirae never asked for power-or for the gods who carved her bloodline to come calling.
When her world collapses, Aurelia is dragged into Nyxarra, a mist-shrouded city ruled by blood bargains, ancient grudges, and magic long thought buried. What begins as a desperate attempt to save her brother quickly unravels into something far more dangerous.
With a haunted warrior at her side and a beautiful monster at her throat, Aurelia must face the stories etched into her blood-and the cost of daring to rewrite them.
Power is a curse. Love is a risk. And survival may cost her everything she has left.
"The thorns we inherit do not ask permission. They prick, they scar, they remind us that beauty was never meant to be harmless. And neither were we."

Not So Neutral Zone
One perfect day in Barcelona. One kiss that changed everything. One goodbye that broke my heart.
I've always been the overlooked sister, the forgotten friend, the girl in the background of everyone else's love story. But when a handsome stranger rescued my purse-and then my entire day-I dared to believe my story might finally be starting.
Then he vanished. No explanation. No phone number. Not even a last name.
Classic.
Fast forward to six months later, when I discover my mystery man is Brody "Candy" Kane-NHL golden boy, my sister's fiancé's teammate-and he needs a favor. As in, a girlfriend to keep his reputation in good shape while he skates into a new contract. And frankly? I wouldn't mind a date to my sister's over-the-top wedding.
The deal: Fake date through wedding season. Break up at the end. No harm, no foul.
The rules: Fake smiles for the cameras. Fake hand-holding for the fans. Absolutely, positively, no falling for each other for real.
The problem: The chemistry that sparked in Barcelona? Never actually went away. And pretending to be in love with someone you're already halfway in love with?
Terrible idea. 0/10. Would not recommend.
A swoony Christian romance about second chances, hidden identities, and discovering that the one man you shouldn't want might be exactly who you need. Fans of Emma St. Clair, Jenny Proctor, and Courtney Walsh will love this sweet and clean, fake dating rom-com with all the banter and none of the spice.

Stay With Me
When the spotlight turns deadly, survival becomes the performance of her life.
A single gunshot rings out, shattering Laurel Hayward's debut as a professional dancer-and witnessing an assassination is only the beginning of her nightmare. The ruthless killer will stop at nothing to find her-determined to possess her or silence her forever.
Enter Deputy U.S. Marshal Jason Dunn: handsome, confident, and far too good at getting under Laurel's skin. Keeping her alive is his job, but keeping his distance? Impossible. Alone in the secluded safe house, the line between duty and desire blurs into something too powerful to resist.
Laurel needs Jason to survive. Jason needs her to finally capture the ghost who's haunted his career for years. But as their attraction ignites, the obsessed killer returns with a deadly final act . . .
And it could cost them everything.
* Stay With Me was previously published in 2014 as Stay by Karyn Lawrence (Nikki's alter ego). This completely rewritten version features new content, more spice, and a point-of-view switch.

Under Assault: A Crime Reporter's True Story Of Overcoming Sexual Trauma and Exposing Injustice
In this powerful memoir, Anna says what too many women never get to say: this happened, it mattered, and it cannot be ignored.
A crime reporter covering the nation's most powerful institutions, Anna Giaritelli had moved to Washington, D.C. with the dream of making it. There she had built her career investigating federal law enforcement, border security, and the machinery of government that most Americans never see up close. Through the years, the city became her home. Then, on an ordinary Saturday morning in April 2020, everything changed.
Walking to the post office a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol, Anna was attacked in broad daylight, physically and sexually assaulted on a public sidewalk while strangers looked on. She survived. Her attacker fled the scene before anyone could stop him.
What followed would test her in ways she never imagined: a years-long legal ordeal, a system that kept releasing her assailant back onto the streets, and the stunning discovery that D.C. police had simply erased her assault from their public crime statistics, as if it had never happened.
Under Assault is Anna's unflinching account of what it means to be victimized twice: first by her attacker, then by the city she loved. It is also something more-a story of hard-won healing, of a reporter who turned her most personal trauma into her most important story, and of the courage it takes to speak when powerful institutions want you silent.
Anna Giaritelli is an award-winning journalist. She joined the Washington Examiner in 2015 and covers homeland security. She has reported from the border on more than 60 trips and was a finalist for the 2024 Dao Prize for Excellence in Investigative Journalism for her coverage of the border crisis. Giaritelli has appeared on Fox News, BBC, Newsmax, The Times, C-SPAN, Sky News, Live Now from FOX, and syndicated Sirius XM and iHeartRadio programs. She earned a bachelor's degree in journalism from Asbury University in 2011. She is based in Georgia.
