"A woman and her ghost roommate investigate their most personal case yet in Olivia Blacke’s The Key to a Killer, the next book in the Anthony Award–winning Ruby and Cordelia Mysteries.
When Ruby Young discovered that her Boston apartment was haunted, she did what any reasonable person would do: befriend the ghost. Their relationship overcame a shaky start—Cordelia Graves never wanted a roommate in life; she certainly didn’t want one in death. After working together to solve a few murders, the two are close friends, but there’s a lingering question neither of them have been able to answer: what led to Cordelia’s death?
Lately, things have been adding up that suggest foul play. And when Cordelia’s memories of that day start to come back, the roommates can’t ignore it anymore: Cordelia was murdered. Ruby and Cordelia are going to have to piece together what Cordelia’s final days looked like—otherwise a killer could go free."
"She swore off men. He'd given up on finding 'the one.' Then a blizzard changed everything.
Lucy Darlington has had it with dating. After one too many disasters—including a first date that ends with a margarita to someone's face—she's done. Her man ban is ironclad. No exceptions. What she doesn't expect is to get stranded in the middle of a freak snowstorm with Spencer Cassidy, the quiet, hometown guy she's secretly admired since high school.
Spencer has always noticed Lucy. He just never found the right moment to say so. Stuck together in a cozy cabin as the snow piles higher and the world outside goes quiet, he finally has all the time he never knew he needed—and a growing certainty that she might be everything he'd stopped believing in.
Snowbound and reluctant, Lucy and Spencer discover that being stranded together is a lot less terrible than either of them expected. But when the roads clear and real life rushes back in, will what they found in the quiet of the storm be strong enough to survive the rest?
Next to You is a cozy, warm small-town romance about the unexpected magic of being stuck in exactly the right place, with exactly the right person."
"WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS DOESN'T ALWAYS STAY IN VEGAS.
A girls weekend in Vegas to celebrate me finally passing my nursing boards what could go wrong?
A lot. Like accidentally marrying the star of bull riding. Maverick Ryder.
I'm sure you're wondering how someone gets accidentally married. Answer: a mechanical bull and way too many margaritas.
I've spent the last ten years of my life in survival mode, and just when things are supposed to get easier. I'm uprooting my life on judges orders and moving to Windy Peaks, Wyoming, until they grant us a divorce.
Windy Peaks is nothing like I thought it would be, and neither is Maverick.
Underneath his go lucky demeanor is a man with scars on his heart that look a whole lot like the ones on mine. Like calls to like and before I know it, I'm so wrapped up in him that I forgot why I shouldn't do this. When the fears of losing yet another person I love become way too real, will the man I love choose me? Or will he become just another thing for me to lose?"
"For over three hundred years, Arden's very existence has been hidden. Until one night, when the latest assassination attempt fails and the third Killian blade makes its appearance.
A powerful witch with little knowledge of her heritage, Arden's first step on the path of destiny is The Abbey. A place of sanctuary and power, it's a haven in a sea of unknowns and where she hopes to find an ally.
An Elven prince, a Fae lord, the First Vampire, a warlock, and the King of Dragons make up the Imperium Cadre, one of the most powerful cadres in existence. Owning and managing The Abbey for over a thousand years, they're not known for taking in strays. But Lord Theron's life debt paves Arden's entry into the formidable sphere of their protection.
As the sweeping winds of change blow, Arden and the cadre will navigate the path of destiny together. Secrets are revealed, heritage found, and alliances forged and lost.
Contains mature themes."
"Two weeks before the most dangerous mission of my life I met the woman of my dreams. Then my life—and the Humvee I was in—got blown to hell.
Up until then, I'd been married to the Marines with no regrets. Being unattached meant I could do my job without distractions. I didn't have to worry if a girl was stepping out when I was on a year-long tour overseas, nor consider making a wife a widow every time I went on a dangerous mission.
What a cruel twist of fate that the moment I no longer wanted to be single, I found myself disfigured and missing a limb.
Yeah, Ashley and I had professed our feelings for each other before I got on that plane, but she fell in love with a man who was whole. That man's gone.
I ended things so she didn't have to. So when I'm finally cleared to return to San Diego to start therapy, she's the last person I wanted to see.
But there she was, looking more beautiful than ever, holding a baby girl with blue eyes. Blue eyes that looked an awful lot like mine.
Contains mature themes."
"Navigating the stacks of a sentient library, as well as their simmering attraction to each other, a librarian witch and a monster hunter team up to save a mystical world from destruction.
As the newest hire at the Endless Library, Bells Mortevue finally has access to magic again and a chance to prove that the daughter of criminal necromancers can be trusted with power-even if it's solely used to seek and sort books upon infinite shelves.
Except a certain monster hunter refuses to let Bells do her job.
Rhett Waltham doesn't want help. Not when revealing the truth of his research would be a death sentence for his ailing human father. Preparing to risk his own life in a dangerous competition to save his dad, Rhett does not have time for a curious, tantalizing librarian witch who asks too many questions.
It's clear the Library disagrees, as the sentient space itself forces the two together. Bells warms to the grumpy hunter as she slowly earns his trust, though she starts to suspect a sickness is stirring within the walls of the mystical dimension. And when a deadly magic threatens to consume the entire Library-and the monster hunter's librarian-Rhett won't let either of them go without a fight."
"Chemistry, shemistry.
She was not dating Ryan Kennedy. Period. End of story. It didn't matter that the sexy firefighter was so drop-dead gorgeous that women's eggs dropped at the sight of him. But not hers. Nope.
Grace had things to do—finishing med school and keeping her nose clean for her upcoming residency match, to name a few—and she wasn't going to let anything or anyone derail her this time.
He could try all he wanted, it was not happening. No matter how broad his shoulders were. Or how perfectly styled his messy hair was. Or what his sexy grin did to her insides. It. Was. Not. Happening. It couldn't.
Getting involved with Ryan Kennedy almost guaranteed her face would be plastered all over Page Six. She couldn't afford to be in the gossip section again. Not now. There was too much at stake.
But the sexy firefighter seemed determined to burn her resolve to the ground. And staying away was starting to feel like an impossibility . . .
Contains mature themes."
"From Katharyn Blair, author of The Beckoning Shadow and Unchosen, comes a standalone twist-filled teen romance set in a dystopian world, perfect for fans of The Hunger Games films.
Ripley Hart didn't plan to break the law.
But on her eighteenth birthday, the Administration bans all books. Which means that the story Ripley wrote years ago, about her first love, is contraband.
It's also gone viral. Suddenly, everyone is reading her story-and trying to write her next chapter:
Lyceum, a group of vigilante librarians, wants her to fight with them; the Machs, a ruthless faction of the rebellion, want her to kill for them; and President Graves wants her to be his Propaganda Princess.
Forced into a fake engagement with the president's son and striking a tenuous truce with the annoyingly attractive leader of the Machs, Ripley takes control of the narrative.
She doesn't know if a love story can save the world, but no matter what-she's going to write her own ending."
"If you can't take the heat, get out of his kitchen.
Kelsey Rankin has worked for years to earn her reputation as one of the best writers at California's top food-and-wine journal. She's left her rural roots in wine country and moved to the city to pursue her dreams.
Then a work trip back home to cover the wine harvest puts her right in the path of Chef Oskar Olson, an internationally recognized chef and the newest resident of her hometown.
Oskar knew he wanted a break from big-city life when he moved to a small town. He wants to make his restaurant one that people talk about, and a review from Kelsey's magazine might push his restaurant into the spotlight.
One explosive night could change everything for these two culinary hotshots and make them question everything they think they want.
Turning Up the Heat is a steamy, stand-alone romance for lovers of sizzling chemistry, mouthwatering food, and sweet happily-ever-afters."
"She broke his heart, but he wants a second chance.
LAYLA BENSON only cares about two things: her two-year-old daughter, Maya, and her growing florist business. Determined to be the best mom to Maya and provide her with everything she needs, she swore off relationships. Romance isn't in the cards for her anyway—Layla believes her bad luck in love is her punishment for breaking CLAY RODGERS's heart three years ago.
Clay is the new goalie for the California Thunders, the team he's been longing to join so he can play alongside his best friends. Everything is falling into place for him—the Stanley Cup is within reach for the first time in his career. But making Layla his again is his ultimate goal. Not even his broken heart or her broken promises make him waver. Layla is the only girl he's ever loved, and he's done letting her walk away from him.
Will Clay be able to convince Layla to give their relationship a second chance, or will she push him away again, breaking his heart to the point of no return?
Contains mature themes."
"As the song says, you can't always get what you want. Maybe that's why, instead of fulfilling her youthful dream of being a rock star, Layla Fortune is living in a trailer park while playing third-rate gigs. Given everything else she's been through, she's not complaining (much) about satin ruffles and go-go boots. She has a squad of supportive BFFs, and she's reclaimed a relationship with her famous rocker dad. His recent diagnosis has brought them even closer—sharing the trailer park's lake house, which he's had remodeled.
Layla's dad loves his new community and the feeling seems mutual. So, why is one of them blackmailing him? It's a mystery almost as baffling as the assignment Layla receives from her former Commissioner: look into the brutal murder of a mild-mannered school teacher. Archie Wilkins was bludgeoned with a candelabra, shot up with drugs, and stuffed into a church confessional. Not the kind of outcome expected for a guy reputed to be the world's nicest.
Perhaps Archie had secrets. Perhaps everyone does, including Layla's one-time cop colleagues. She's been blaming herself for a deadly ambush that destroyed her career and her peace of mind, but as her new friends help Layla regain her memories, a different picture emerges, and it's one that forces her to question so much that she's taken as truth . . ."
"Note to self: Next time I need a big story, maybe don't pick a fight with a hot hockey player dressed as Santa. Especially if he's hiding something . . .
Holly: My assignment to cover the Chicago Blizzard's Christmas charity events turns unexpectedly into a viral feud with star defenseman Harrison Clarke—in a Santa suit.

But with my daughter, Macy, my career aspirations, and Harrison's mysterious past in play, this holiday romance might be over before it begins.
Harrison: Playing Santa was supposed to help grease the decision-making wheels and land me the captain's 'C.' Instead, it reunites me with Holly Coleman—my high school crush turned single mom and journalist.
Our argument makes us America's favorite feuding duo, but real feelings begin to complicate the game. Holly sees beyond the hockey player, but my hidden past threatens everything.
This Christmas, I'm attempting the ultimate hat trick: clearing my name, proving I'm captain material, and winning the girl of my dreams."
