Forever the dutiful friend, she agrees to help set Mae up with the hottest boy in class: Kasun. The only problem? He's Amalia's secret crush. Adopting the role of wingwoman, Amalia does her best to navigate an unfamiliar world of parties and romantic drama. Meanwhile, she grows closer to Kasun's best mates, Jake and Laeli, who frustrate and intrigue her in equal measure. When misunderstandings (and secret kisses) threaten to derail relationships, Amalia is left more confused than ever. Who does she really want to be with?

Ukraine’s remarkable aptitude for resilience and grassroots
activism, as witnessed since February 2022, is closely connected to
a process that began with the Euromaidan Revolution in 2013-14,
when over two million Ukrainians took to the streets in defense of
democracy and human rights. In the months directly following the
Revolution, Russia illegally occupied Ukraine’s Crimean
Peninsula, and began funneling both arms and troops into the
eastern region of Donbas to fuel a conflict between the Ukrainian
army and a small group of radical separatists. Since that time,
Ukrainians have been working diligently to build the society in
which they have wanted to live, all while fighting Russia and its
proxies in Europe’s forgotten war. Ukrainian New Drama After the
Euromaidan Revolution brings together key works from the
country’s impressively generative post-Revolutionary period, many
of them published here in English for the first time. As well as
established voices from the European theatre repertoire such as
Natalka Vorozhbyt and Maksym Kurochkin, this collection also
features iconic plays from Ukraine’s post-Maidan generation of
playwrights Natalka Blok, Andrii Bondarenko, Anastsiia Kosodii,
Lena Lagushonkova, Olha Matsiupa, and Kateryna Penkova. Considered
together, these plays reflect the diversity of voices in Ukraine as
a country seeking to comprehend both the personal and political
consequences of the Revolution, the war, and all that has come
since. A key element to the remarkable culture of defiance and
resistance that Ukrainians created in these years has been new
approaches to arts activism, particularly in the performing arts.
In the eight years between Euromaidan and the full-scale invasion,
Ukraine witnessed an incredible boom in socially engaged
performance practice. Playwriting in particular has become an
essential genre through which artists have sought to bear witness
to the repercussions of the war and to create spaces for the
reclaiming of historical and cultural narratives; Ukrainian New
Drama After the Euromaidan Revolution captures this spirit and
published this necessary and vital work in English for the very
first time.

Every citizen of England is granted one bargain from their immortal fae queen. High society girls are expected to bargain for qualities that will win them suitors: a rare talent for piano in exchange for one’s happiest childhood memory. A perfect smile for one’s ability to taste.
But Ivy Benton’s debut season arrives with a shocking twist: a competition to secure the heart of the Queen’s fae son, Prince Bram. A prize that could save Ivy’s family from ruin… and free her sister from the bargain that destroyed her.
Yet every glittering fae deal has a rotting heart, and at the centre of this contest is a dark plot that could destroy everything.
Sweepingly romantic and deceptively enchanting, this alternate history romantasy will enthrall readers of Lauren Roberts, Stephanie Garber, and Sarah J Maas.
