When Hanna "Ziggy" Bergstrom moves to New York City for graduate
school, Will Sumner thinks his responsibilities to his best
friend's nerdy little sister will be limited to the occasional
dinner and check-in. Little does he know that Ziggy is ready to
break out of her bookworm academic shell and move more into
bombshell territory. Of course she figures the gorgeous womanizing
venture capitalist Will is the best person to help mentor her in
this new field of study: dating. Will takes on the challenge with
more than a healthy dose of scepticism and humour, but soon finds
that Ziggy just needed a tiny push, not a world of change, to
reveal a woman every man seems to notice. Soon "Ziggy" is gone and
the unfiltered, innocently seductive Hanna Bergstrom is hijacking
his dreams, his moods, and even his orderly no-strings-attached
dating life-beginning the night his mentoring activities move
between the sheets.
Brooke Alexander is in love with one of Washington, D.C.'s most
prominent attorneys, or so she believes. Patrick is everything that
dreams are made of, or so she believes. Brooke is a waitress in a
diner and has self-esteem issues regarding her lackluster existence
and her fluctuating weight. One day, Patrick can be loving and
supportive. The next, demeaning and seemingly angry at the world.
Damon Johnson has been married to his wife, Carleigh, for four
years. He is one of "the last good men." He is compassionate,
honest, and worships the ground that she walks on. But Carleigh
treats Damon like a trophy husband, allowing her friends to
salivate over him and disrespect their happy home. Damon has dreams
outside of his six-figure corporate job and Carleigh treats his
life aspirations like a joke. Her selfish nature makes Damon wonder
if he made the right decision when he asked for her hand in
marriage. A tragic event forces Brooke and Damon to become a part
of each other's lives. Through the darkest of times, they find the
courage, strength and perseverance to rid themselves of the toxic
elements corrupting their emotional well-being. They discover the
true meaning of unconditional love when, together, they experience
a total eclipse of the heart.
'This sizzling hot read will take you to places you've never been
before' The Sun on Beautiful Liar In a family of cold-hearted black
sheep, I, Axel Rutherford, am the blackest. My father has hated me
since the day I was born. The feeling was mutual. In the shady
underworld that was my legacy, Cleo McCarthy became my light. She
was beautiful, passionate, and my whole world. So naturally my
father had to destroy us. First he sent me away. Next he claimed
Cleo as his own. But now I've returned, and nothing will stop me
from taking back everything that is rightfully mine. He was the
love of my life - when my life was still my own. We were young
enough to believe we would last forever, Axel and I. But neither of
us realized how cruel life - and our families - could be. Now I'm
trapped in a gilded cage: desired by Axel, who must never know the
full truth, and controlled by his father, who would sooner see me
dead than free. And I wouldn't even care, except that it's no
longer only my life at stake. Praise for Beautiful Liar: 'An
exotically filthy, devastatingly beautiful story, that will
captivate and tease you long after the book is finished' Audrey
Carlan, No.1 New York Times bestselling author 'Zara Cox is known
for scorching reads and she delivers again with Beautiful Liar. Add
in a twisty plot and the pages fly by on this read!' Jana Aston,
New York Times bestselling author 'Wow! This book is so well
written, it blows me away! Do whatever you have to do before you
start reading, because you won't be able to put the book down once
you start it, and prepare yourself for a fabulous, smoking hot read
which will wring out your emotions and leave you totally
satisfied!' Tabitha A Lane, bestselling author of Trade 'This is
Fifty Shades and then some. I recommend it to anyone that loved Mr
Grey. As well as raunchy sex scenes, the emotional power is immense
and will stay with you long after you finish the book' Rachael
Stewart
I met him at the candy store. He turned around and smiled at me and
I was surprised enough to smile back. This was not a children's
candy store, mind you--this was the kind of place you went to buy
expensive imported chocolate truffles for your boss's wife because
you felt guilty for having sex with him when you were both at a
conference in Milwaukee. Hypothetically speaking, of course.
I've been hit on plenty of times, mostly by men with little finesse
who thought what was between their legs made up for what they
lacked between their ears. Sometimes I went home with them anyway,
just because it felt good to want and be wanted, even if it was
mostly fake.
The problem with wanting is that it's like pouring water into a
vase full of stones. It fills you up before you know it, leaving no
room for anything else. I don't apologize for who I am or what I've
done in--or out--of bed. I have my job, my house and my life, and
for a long time I haven't wanted anything else.
Until Dan. Until now.
Oh, what is it about two beautiful women locked in a forbidden
embrace that just makes guys go a little crazy? Maybe it's that
silly idea they'd invite us into their little lovefest. One can
always dream... or look into the pages of this new art collection
by the team of Mazzotti and Silvestroni. An erotic series of
stories, each accompanied by a steamy full color painting, this
first volume of lesbian friction is sure to raise more than
eyebrows!
Jax:
Pills. Alcohol. Adrenaline. I’m addicted to destructive decisions that numb my pain. Until one night when I make a catastrophic mistake. To repair my broken reputation, my team hires Elena— An overpaid babysitter set on ruining my plans. She's my damnation disguised as my salvation. And my newest addiction.
Elena:
I begged the universe to save me from my financial disaster. It answered my call with a Formula 1 team desperate for a PR miracle. One season. One job. One broody British racer. Except that Jax turns our hotel room into a battleground. To beat the enemy, I need to find his weaknesses. What I learn threatens to ruin everything. Him. Me. Us. Love is a warzone, and neither one of us plans to surrender.
"MERCY," Part Two The tale of kink and metal continues as Ally and
Alan ride their rollercoaster of sexual exploration. Meanwhile Anne
and Laura enjoy their little slice of heaven relationship. Good
times all around. Sure would be a shame if addictive behavior and
trust issues ruined all that fun. I mean, that would be terrible.
A dark and sexy thriller perfect for fans of L. S. Hilton's Maestra
and Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl Deanna Madden, aka Jessica Reilly,
hasn't touched another person in three years. She hasn't left her
apartment. She makes money from performing to webcams on a sex
site, where her clients pay $6.99 a minute for her time. She's
doing alright. The dollars are piling up in the bank. She's the
number 3 model on cams.com. And she hasn't killed anyone for years.
But when Deanna sees on the news that a little girl called Annie
has gone missing, the story rattles her carefully ordered world.
It's uncomfortably similar to the dark fantasy of one of her most
disturbing online clients. She's convinced he's responsible for the
girl's abduction - but no one will listen to her. So, after three
years, Deanna finally leaves the apartment. And this is what
happens...
In the peaceful town of Grace Valley, neighbors are like
family--and just as meddlesome, too. June Hudson is the town's
doctor, a caring, capable woman who now has a bit of explaining to
do. People are beginning to notice the bloom in her cheeks--and the
swell of her belly. Happily, DEA agent Jim Post is back in June's
arms for good, newly retired from undercover work and ready for new
beginnings here in Grace Valley. Expecting the unexpected is a way
of life in Grace Valley, and the community is overflowing with
gossip right now. Who is the secret paramour June's aunt Myrna is
hiding? Does the town's poker-playing pastor have too many aces up
his sleeve? But when dangers, from man and nature, rise up with a
vengeance to threaten June and the town, this community pulls
together and shows what it's made of. And Jim discovers the true
meaning of happiness here in Grace Valley: there really is no place
like home.
You never know what secrets people are hiding. Isabel: Beautiful.
Talented. Bored. Mathew: Mysterious. Handsome. Dangerous. For
Isabel Archer, dating is a way to pass the time in her otherwise
comfortable life. She casts herself as the Perfect Girlfriend for
every man she matches with, playing a different girl with a
different back-story every night for months. It's innocent - one
goodnight kiss before swiftly deleting each profile - until she
goes too far. Mathew likes playing games too. Only the games he
wants to play are the kind you don't always walk away from.
Dangerous Liaisons meets Maestra in the most shocking thriller
you'll read this year.

THRILLER OF THE YEAR in GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH AND DAILY EXPRESS
'Totally addictive. Like Fight Club, only darker' S.J. Watson 'I
loved this book. Dark and at times almost comical, a great blend of
crime thriller and the darkest imaginable domestic noir' Sarah
Pinborough Dark, deviant and disturbing domestic noir ... one of
the most entrancing, sophisticated and page-turning psychological
thrillers of the year... _________________ One crossed wire, three
dead bodies and six bottles of bleach... Seth Beauman can't sleep.
He stays up late, calling strangers from his phonebook, hoping to
make a connection, while his wife, Maeve, sleeps upstairs. A
crossed wire finds a suicidal Hadley Serf on the phone to Seth,
thinking she is talking to The Samaritans. But a seemingly
harmless, late-night hobby turns into something more for Seth and
for Hadley, and soon their late-night talks are turning into
day-time meet-ups. And then this dysfunctional love story turns
into something altogether darker, when Seth brings Hadley home...
And someone is watching... Dark, sexy, dangerous and wildly
readable, Good Samaritans marks the scorching return of one of
crime fiction's most exceptional voices. _________________ 'So
dark, so cool' Lisa Howells, Heat Magazine 'Will Carver's
invigoratingly nasty novel ... is a bleak vision of life: not the
whole truth of it, thank god, but true enough to impart to the
reader the thrill of genuine discomfort, presented with the chilly
conviction of Simenon's most unflinching romans dues and just as
horribly addictive' Jake Kerridge, The Telegraph 'Carver weaves
these strands together for an unsettling but compelling mixture of
the banal, the horrific and, at times, the near-comic,
wrong-footing the reader at every turn' Laura Wilson, Guardian
'Must Read!' Daily Express 'Beautiful, gripping and disturbing in
equal measure, a postcard from the razor's edge of the connected
world we live in' Kevin Wignall 'Possibly the most interesting and
original writer in the crime-fiction genre, and I've loved his
books for years. Good Samaritans is his best to date - dark, slick,
gripping, and impossible to put down. You'll be sucked in from the
first page' Luca Veste 'Oh My God, Good Samaritans is amazing. I'm
a little in love with your writing Will Carver' Helen FitzGerald,
Author of The Cry
"Close to Spider Man" marks the debut of an exciting new
literary talent: a collection of connected stories whose female
narrators seek out lives for themselves amidst the lonely,
breathtaking landscape of the Yukon. The young women in Ivan
Coyote's deeply personal stories are looking to make a break from
their circumstances, but the North is in their bones: so is their
connections to family, friends, and other women. Like the
protagonist in the title story, a waitress whose attempts to help a
young co-worker saddled with a lunatic father finds her running
across rooftops and climbing ladders; by getting close to Spider
Man, she gets closer to freedom.
Startling in their intimacy, the stories in "Close to Spider
Man" make up a moving scrapbook of what it's like to be a young
queer woman in the North, journeys imbued with the colours of a
prescient sexuality and an honest heart.
