Book Description
From USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR Jennifer Bernard comes a friends-to-lovers standalone romance in the Lost Harbor, Alaska series. Graduate degree in hand, Ruthie Malone has returned to her Alaska hometown to prove she’s not the same awkward girl everyone remembers. And she’s definitely made an impression—stirring a hornet’s nest of old secrets with her research into Lost Harbor’s forgotten past. Seems the only person in her corner is her new coworker, a Scottish chef who’s as surly as he is sexy—and a close friend. Which means hands off. Alastair Dougal first visited Lost Harbor seeking answers to his sister’s tragic death, but the charming town keeps calling him back, again and again. Now he’s taken temporary work and has become unlikely friends with a nerdy redhead who’s equal parts quirky and exasperating. But when a nasty part of his past comes calling, it’s Ruthie who has his back—and his attention, after she reveals a side that’s less shy historian, more sensual hottie. Busy trying to uncover old secrets, Ruthie and Alastair don’t want to ruin their friendship...until one wild beach bonfire puts them on course for a slow burn by starlight.

If the jungle wants you, it will have you... Catalina Quiroga is a Condesa without a country. She’s lost the Inkasisa throne, the loyalty of her people, and her best friend. Banished to the perilous Yanu Jungle, Catalina knows her chances of survival are slim, but that won’t stop her from trying to escape. Her duty is to rule. While running for her life, Catalina is rescued by Manuel, the son of her former general who has spent years searching for allies. With his help, Catalina could find the city of gold that’s home to the fierce Illari people and strike a deal with them for an army to retake her throne. But the elusive Illari are fighting a battle of their own—a mysterious blight is corrupting the jungle, laying waste to everything they hold dear. As a seer, Catalina should be able to help, but her ability to read the future in the stars is as feeble as her survival instincts. While searching for the Illari, Catalina must reckon with her duty and her heart to find her true calling, which is key to stopping the corruption before it destroys the jungle completely.

Book Description
The first book in the New York Times bestselling epic fantasy trilogy by award-winning author Laini Taylor Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky. In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low. And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherworldly war. Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages--not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out. When one of the strangers--beautiful, haunted Akiva--fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?

Book Description
“Nerve-racking anticipation and dread ... An assemblage of horror tales and somber verses that frighten and fascinate.” —Kirkus Reviews “Will appeal to horror fans seeking something fresh.” —Publishers Weekly "Mythical, chilling, and visceral . . . Truly a slow burn readers will crave to simmer in." —Ai Jiang, Hugo Award-nominated author of Linghun and I Am AI "Slow Burn is a multifaceted, multifarious feast for the horror-hungry." —Matthew M. Bartlett, author of Gateways to Abomination and Where Night Cowers "By turns gorgeous, horrifying, gruesome, furious, darkly erotic, wickedly funny, and frequently all of those things at once, this extraordinary collection never shies away from pushing the reader's boundaries. Allen masterfully succeeds in being transgressive in all the best and most beautiful ways. I adore this book." —Sunny Moraine, author of Your Shadow Half Remains The search for a missing grandson unearths a pit of unholy hunger. A war between flesh-stealing supernatural entities will subject an entire city to devastating mayhem. In a harrowing future world, a slave is charged by his terrifying master with building a creature in its likeness. The voyage of a plague ship won't end at mere death. Parasites are partners and lovers, and the immortal soul is but a single stage in the complex life cycle of a symbiote. Slow Burn gathers fourteen stories of horror and thirteen macabre poems by two-time World Fantasy Award finalist Mike Allen, author of the Shirley Jackson Award-nominated collections Unseaming and Aftermath of an Industrial Accident. Allen's works are "exquisite and vivid, his worlds rich with brilliant detail," says three-time Bram Stoker Award® winner Christina Sng in her introduction. "The images he paints with words are terrifying and mesmerizing, keeping you enthralled, unable to look away." These tales and verses, set in worlds of fantasy and sorcery, in twisted, surreal futures, and in hard-boiled modern milieus . . . all find ways to explore the abyssal darkness of the human heart. Cover art and design by Lasse Paldanius; interior illustrations by Paula Arwen Owen PRAISE FOR SLOW BURN "An astonishing range of ideas and themes that never quail from their subjects. They'll remain with you long after reading, like ash residue from a long-burning fire." —Preston Grassmann, co-editor of The Mad Butterfly's Ball "Don't let the title fool you, Slow Burn is an artistic flame that blazes like an inferno from start to finish!" —Vaughn A. Jackson, author of Touched by Shadows "Diabolically inventive and varied . . . You'll laugh, shudder, cry, and throw up a little in your mouth. Mike Allen's range can outstretch any fleshy hell-tendril, darting from experimental poetry to cheeky Clive Barker satire to whip-sharp supernatural thrillers . . . achingly human characters and heaping, writhing helpings of body horror." —Rich Larson, author of Ymir and Tomorrow Factory "Unsettling, perceptive, always surprising, always absorbing—Slow Burn is a collection of gems." —Premee Mohamed, Nebula Award-winning author of Beneath the Rising "Consuming horror that is not for the squeamish!" —Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories "At turns dripping with Cronenberg body horror, infused with Barker misanthropy, and crawling with the darkest fantasy, the stories and poems in Slow Burn are beautifully crafted to lure you in, but their beauty won't let you go easily. There are too many strange limbs for that." —Michael Wehunt, author of The Inconsolables "Like one of the extra-dimensional creatures lurking within Slow Burn's collected stories and novella, author Mike Allen must also have a thousand eyes, a hundred mouths, and far too many fingers. How else could he find so many strange and hidden worlds—not to mention the strangeness hidden in our own world—and translate it all so beautifully? A mind-bending delight from a horrifically unique imagination, Slow Burn will twist, turn, and transform readers." —Gordon B. White, finalist for the Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker Awards PRAISE FOR MIKE ALLEN "These stories are fun. Not 'good' fun, and certainly not 'good clean' fun. They are too unnerving for those modifiers, too serious, like laughter in the dark—unnerving, serious laughter that leads you through Mr. Allen's funhouse." —Thomas Ligotti "Mike Allen habitually upends Lovecraftian tropes with his own brand of cosmic horror." —Laird Barron "Mike Allen is a master of horror and dark fantasy." —Cemetery Dance
