Tempted by love. Saved by my dad's best friend.

Charly.
A few days ago, I was just Charly. A small-town girl, bartending at a club near my tiny apartment, living paycheck to paycheck. Then I got a letter from a lawyer telling me my father died. Now, I'm an orphan with no clue what to do with the estate and the club my father named after me. I should sell it and enjoy the billionaire lifestyle away from city life, but the secrets my dad left behind bind me here. Or rather, my dad's best friend tempts me to stay.

Rocky.
No matter how much I try to pull away, I'm drawn to everything about her. I keep telling myself she's off-limits, but the urge to protect her courses through my veins. Someone's out for the club and her, just like they were out for her father. The closer we get to figuring out what really happened to my best friend, the more danger she's in. It's up to me to save Charly.

Within New York City's most elite families, there lurks a secret society of celebrated Americans. They are the powerful and the wealthy--and, they are not human. They are the Blue Bloods.

Schuyler Van Alen has never fit in at Duchesne, her prestigious New York City private school. She prefers baggy, vintage clothes instead of the Prada and pearls worn by her classmates, and she lives with her reclusive grandmother in a dilapidated mansion. Schuyler is a loner--and happy that way.

But when she turns fifteen, something starts happening to Schuyler. Her veins are starting to turn blue, and she's craving raw meat. The death of a popular girl from Duchesne is surrounded by a mystery that haunts her. And strangest off all, Jack Force, the most popular boy in school, is showing a sudden interest in her. Soon, her world is thrust into an intricate maze of secret societies and bitter intrigue. Schuyler wants to find out the secrets the Blue Bloods are keeping. But is she herself in danger?

Steeped in vampire lore and set against the glittery backdrop of New York City, Blue Bloods will be devoured by fans of Melissa de la Cruz.

#1 New York Times bestselling author of The Selection series Kiera Cass is back with her most epic novel yet--a sweeping enemies-to-lovers standalone romance.

"Love has a sound. It sounds like a thousand heartbeats happening at the same time."

Princess Annika has lived a life of comfort--but no amount of luxuries can change the fact that her life isn't her own to control. The king, once her loving father, has gone cold, and Annika will soon be forced into a loveless marriage for political gain.

Miles away, small comforts are few and far between for Lennox. He has devoted his life to the Dahrainian army, hoping to one day help them reclaim the throne that was stolen from them. For Lennox, the idea of love is merely a distraction--nothing will stand in the way of fighting for his people.

But when love, against all odds, finds them both, they are bound by its call. They can't possibly be together--but the irresistible thrum of a thousand heartbeats won't let them stay apart. 

Kiera Cass brings her signature sparkling romance to this beautiful story of star-crossed lovers and long-held secrets.

It's a steamy June afternoon in Louisiana, circa 1956, and Sissy LeBlanc is sitting on her front porch, wondering -- half seriously -- if she could kill herself with aspirins and Coca-Cola. She's been living in stifling old Gentry since the day she was born and trapped in a sham of a marriage to PeeWee LeBlanc since she was only seventeen. In short, she's fed up, restless, and ready for an adventure. Sissy just never imagined temptation would come into her life that breathless summer day as she sat smoking on her porch swing. For although she may have been fixated on the taut muscles of the lineman shimmying down the telephone pole across the street, she hadn't allowed herself to imagine that he'd be none other than her high school sweetheart, Parker Davidson, who left town fourteen years before without so much as a wave good-bye. But suddenly, here he is, leaning in for a kiss that will stir up more excitement than Sissy could ever have imagined...

Penelope Ward

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone, second-chance story of forbidden love... It's natural to want the one you can't have. And for as long as I could remember, I'd secretly wanted my brother's best friend, Jace. He was six years older and always treated me like the sister he never had. Fast forward a decade. We were all in our twenties now. Jace had moved in with my brother, Nathan, and me to help us make ends meet after our parents died. It was just the three of us-an odd family dynamic. Living under our roof, Jace was as bossy and protective as ever. But he certainly didn't look at me like a sister anymore. That was what made things so complicated. I was pretty much hot and bothered twenty-four-seven. And he was torn. The signs were subtle, at first. Like on movie night, I'd casually rest my leg against his, and he wouldn't exactly shift away. Still, I assumed he would never...go there. Nathan would kill us. The knowledge of that wasn't enough to stop the inevitable, though. Eventually our slow burn exploded. But more than the physical attraction, we'd developed a strong connection. We just couldn't get caught, right? That sounded simple. Until it wasn't. This is a story of forbidden love, broken trust, and an unexpected second chance.

The year is 1969. In the state of Kerala, on the southernmost tip of India, a skyblue Plymouth with chrome tailfins is stranded on the highway amid a Marxist workers' demonstration. Inside the car sit two-egg twins Rahel and Esthappen, and so begins their tale.... Armed only with the invincible innocence of children, they fashion a childhood for themselves in the shade of the wreck that is their family - their lonely, lovely mother, Ammu (who loves by night the man her children love by day), their blind grandmother, Mammachi (who plays Handel on her violin), their beloved uncle Chacko (Rhodes scholar, pickle baron, radical Marxist, bottom-pincher), their enemy, Baby Kochamma (ex-nun and incumbent grandaunt), and the ghost of an imperial entomologist's moth (with unusually dense dorsal tufts). When their English cousin, Sophie Mol, and her mother, Margaret Kochamma, arrive on a Christmas visit, Esthappen and Rahel learn that Things Can Change in a Day. That lives can twist into new, ugly shapes, even cease forever, beside their river "graygreen. With fish in it. With the sky and trees in it. And at night, the broken yellow moon in it."

Father Gregory Lind was thirty-two years old when he met Pamela Gibson. He was a dedicated and conservative priest, if judged by the standards of Vatican II. He was not in favor of celebrating the Mass in English. nor did he like the idea of folk Masses... and he believed strongly and seriously in the priestly vows of chastity. As assistant editor of The Catholic Star and as supervisor of a training center for the underprivileged Spanish-Americans of his town, he took a genuine, compassionate interest in people and their problems. Father Lind had seen Pamela a few times at the training center. She was the daughter of a wealthy banker, had been briefly married and divorced, and now she was devoting three evenings a week to teaching at the center. Father Lind found her pleasant and stimulating to talk to, a welcome moment of relaxation after a long day. Father Lind had hardly considered his meetings with Pamela a romance... until the day he suddenly realized how much he looked forward to seeing her... how utterly empty he felt when she was not around. And it wasn't long before Gregory Lind was forced to confront the most awesome dilemma of his life...
