The next installment in the Hades and Persephone story from
bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair. Discover the world of New
Athens and the Greek gods in a series that readers are calling
"hopelessly addictive." "I am not sure who you think I am," she
said. "But let me be clear-I am Persephone, future Queen of the
Underworld, Lady of Your Fate-may you come to dread my presence."
Persephone and Hades are engaged. In retaliation, Demeter summons a
snowstorm that cripples New Greece, and refuses to lift the
blizzard unless her daughter calls off her engagement. When the
Olympians intervene, Persephone finds her future in the hands of
ancient gods, and they are divided. Do they allow Persephone to
marry Hades and go to war with Demeter, or prohibit their union and
take up arms against the God of the Dead? Nothing is certain but
the promise of war.
From disco balls to Christmas baubles ... Ex-dancer Emily Williams

Dancing with Celebs to help those in need. Now the only dancing she

a time for miracles, but Blake seems to be a lost cause. But
Emily's reasons for abandoning her dancing passion means she
understands the Hollywood wild child more than she'd like to admit.
Could their time together, coupled with a dash of Christmas spirit,
lead to a miracle change of heart for them both?

supposed to be a breeze, but nothing about Jamie Streicher is easy.

has a massive ego. Keeping things professional will be no problem, even
when he demands I move in with him.
Beneath his surliness, though, Jamie's surprisingly sweet and
protective.
When Jamie learns how bad my ex was in bed, his competitive nature
flares, and he encourages and spoils me in every way. The creative
spark I used to feel about songwriting? It's back, and I'm writing
music again. Between wearing his jersey at games, rowdy parties with
the team, and being brave on stage again, I'm falling for him.
He could break my heart, but it might be worth it.

An electrifying debut novel about grief, power and desire―and the tangles in between that make up a life.
When a creative writing academic becomes infatuated with his colleague―the poet―his fascination soon begins to threaten his relationship with his partner, Michael. Michael is beautiful. Michael is safe. But the poet is everything he isn't; she has everything he wants. While he writes about steel and sex, she dreams about the movements of swallows. While he tends to his budding career, she writes from her big, white house in the woods.
Meanwhile, his homophobic and spiteful mother―who cast a shadow over his childhood―is continuing to make his life difficult. As he is pulled back and forth between these two different worlds, his fixation on the poet, his Kingfisher, grows into something more powerful. She becomes his sole focus. He is hypnotized.
But when simultaneous illnesses threaten to destroy the precarious reality he clings to, he's forced to question what he can and cannot take from someone.
