Red, White & Royal Blue meets the theater world of London’s
dazzling West End in this nuanced, queer debut romance in which a fake
dating publicity stunt between rival co-stars results in romantic
sparks neither of them expected.
After winning his first Olivier Award for his performance in the West
End’s top musical, The Wooden Horse, fabulously talented Jonah Penrose
is the new shining star of London’s theatre scene. But Jonah’s success
can’t erase the pain of a recent breakup, fix his self-doubt, or remedy
his father’s ailing mind.
Enter stage right, Dexter Ellis: the West End’s golden boy, the newest
cast member of The Wooden Horse, and someone Jonah finds to be
intolerable and arrogant.
Everything about Dexter is infuriatingly perfect, from his dashing
looks and casual but cutting notes on Jonah’s performances to his
obnoxious sweaters that cost more than Jonah’s rent. Worse yet, while
Dexter was supposed to play Jonah’s enemy in the show, his role
switches to his love interest after a bout of illness temporarily
sidelines half of the cast.
Jonah’s plan to stay as far away from Dexter as possible is thwarted
when fans mistake their on-stage tension for romantic chemistry and
tickets start selling like hotcakes. With fans desperate to catch a
glimpse of the West End’s ‘hottest couple,’ the show’s producer pushes
the co-stars to put on a show of their own and convince the world that
they are in love.
While pretending to be head over heels for his co-star is the last
thing Jonah wants, he reluctantly agrees. Yet as he gets to know Dexter
better, he learns there’s more to him than meets the eye. As the lines
between fiction and reality begin to blur and Jonah’s feelings become
less of an act, he must decide if he’s willing to entrust his heart to
someone again.
At turns both passionate and poignant, heartfelt and intimate, The
Dramatic Life of Jonah Penrose is a love letter to the theater, to life
in your thirties, and to what happens when you throw out the script and
improvise the life you want.

'I love her beautiful settings and brooding heroes!' Sarah Bennett
Who can resist the romance of Venice... When Norah arrives in
Venice for a ten-week internship she is surprised to discover that
her guide for her work trips around the lagoon is the undeniably
gorgeous and kind Gianluca. She can't help thinking he might be too
good to be true, with his endless fascinating local stories, and
his infectious laugh. Norah is still bitter after an accident left
her with a serious injury and also meant the end of her long-term
relationship. And besides, she's serious about her career and that
means leaving Venice at the end of the summer. Gianluca has had a
summer fling before that led to heartache for him and he won't do
it again. He enjoys the long hours out on the lagoon with Norah,
but after a storm strands them on a picture-perfect island for a
night, they agree they should just be good friends for the summer.
But life doesn't always go to plan, and when it's time for Norah to
go, they have to decide whether what they have between them is
really just a friendship, and not something more... Leonie Mack is
back with another fabulously romantic escape, perfect for all fans
of Mandy Baggot, Jo Thomas and Carole Matthews. What readers are
saying about Leonie Mack: 'I read a lot of romance books and I have
to say this book is one of the best in terms of chemistry. Readers
- we're talking red hot!' 'A hot and sizzling read!' 'An uplifting,
intelligent novel with a lot of substance and of course, plenty of
romance' 'I can't stop thinking about this book!' 'Beautifully
written, this is a great take on the opposites attract theme.' 'A
delight to read with lots of fun, romance and funny bits along the
way.'
Enter a lush world inspired by the history and mythology of South
America, where twisted family politics deceive, dark magics thrive,
and fantastical creatures roam. Reina is desperate. Stuck on the
edges of society, Reina’s only hope lies in an invitation from a
grandmother she’s never met. But the journey to her is dangerous,
and prayer can’t always avert disaster. Attacked by creatures
that stalk the mountains, Reina is on the verge of death until her
grandmother, a dark sorceress, intervenes. Now dependent on the
Doña’s magic for her life, Reina will do anything to earn—and
keep—her favor. Even the bidding of an ancient god who whispers
to her at night. Eva Kesaré is unwanted. Illegitimate and of mixed
heritage, Eva is her family’s shame. She tries to be the perfect
daughter, but Eva is hiding a secret: magic calls to her. Eva knows
she should fight the temptation. Magic is the sign of the dark god,
and using it is punishable by death. Yet it’s hard to ignore
power when it has always been denied you. Eva is walking a
dangerous path, one that gets stranger every day. And in the end,
she’ll become something she never imagined.
