QUARANTINED WITH THE CELEBRITY WHO BOUGHT ME (4 BOOK SERIES) I was eighteen years old when my parents sold me to the star of the biggest boyband in the UK. Quarantined with the maniacal superstar with a body like a God and a craving for brown sugar should have been a dream come true. But Master Henry is not like any guy I’ve ever met. He’s obsessed with me and he wants me to return the favor and worship every inch of his chiseled body. I can’t allow myself to fall for him like every other girl… He may have bought my body, but he can’t buy my love. JEALOUS EX-BOYFRIEND A tipsy one night stand with my ex-boyfriend’s best friend. Perfect. Now Ian won’t leave me alone and if my ex finds out… I’m toast. My ex’s best mate is the last person on Earth I expected to sleep with. When I last saw him, he was a science geek and a total failure with women. Now, the 6’4” geek is so much more. He has a body carved by the gods, PhD smarts, and a tongue that could unlock the chamber of secrets. The mega-dong between his legs is only the icing on the cake. If I’m not careful, I’ll fall for him. Hard. POSSESSIVE BEST FRIEND A tipsy one night stand with my ex-boyfriend’s best friend. Perfect… Not. Ian plans to ensnare me forever.

He’s supposed to be protecting me, not thinking about bending me over. I’m supposed to be avoiding human contact, not teasing him. I have to say no to this sexy beast no matter how incredibly bored I am. When my teasing goes too far, I don’t know what Tex will do to me… I hope it’s hot. PLOWED BY THE HUNG REDNECK “I’m a red-blooded American man. I know what I want and it’s you.” I’m here to claim his farm, he’s here to claim me… I’m Tee, with the IRS, and here to foreclose the Grambling farm. The enormous redneck sitting across from me man-spreads and then I see it… The BIGGEST hunk of man meat I’ve ever seen. He has another idea of how to settle his debts that include me… Bent over… Begging for him… Becoming his. BLIND LOVE I am marrying a man who I have never met. The first time we see each other will be after I say “YES!” Will the connection we built behind these walls translate to the real world?

Book excerpt: An Instant New York Times Bestseller! Winner of the Coretta Scott King - John Steptoe for New Talent Author Award Filled with mystery and an intriguingly rich magic system, Tracy Deonn’s YA contemporary fantasy reinvents the King Arthur legend and “braids together Southern folk traditions and Black Girl Magic into a searing modern tale of grief, power, and self-discovery” (Dhonielle Clayton, New York Times bestselling author of The Belles). After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants nothing to do with her family memories or childhood home. A residential program for bright high schoolers at UNC–Chapel Hill seems like the perfect escape—until Bree witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus. A flying demon feeding on human energies. A secret society of so called “Legendborn” students that hunt the creatures down. And a mysterious teenage mage who calls himself a “Merlin” and who attempts—and fails—to wipe Bree’s memory of everything she saw. The mage’s failure unlocks Bree’s own unique magic and a buried memory with a hidden connection: the night her mother died, another Merlin was at the hospital. Now that Bree knows there’s more to her mother’s death than what’s on the police report, she’ll do whatever it takes to find out the truth, even if that means infiltrating the Legendborn as one of their initiates. She recruits Nick, a self-exiled Legendborn with his own grudge against the group, and their reluctant partnership pulls them deeper into the society’s secrets—and closer to each other. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur’s knights and explain that a magical war is coming, Bree has to decide how far she’ll go for the truth and whether she should use her magic to take the society down—or join the fight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated, encyclopedic deep dive into the history of roleplaying games. When Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson released Dungeons & Dragons in 1974, they created the first roleplaying game of all time. Little did they know that their humble box set of three small digest-sized booklets would spawn an entire industry practically overnight. In Monsters, Aliens, and Holes in the Ground, Stu Horvath explores how the hobby of roleplaying games, commonly known as RPGs, blossomed out of an unlikely pop culture phenomenon and became a dominant gaming form by the 2010s. Going far beyond D&D, this heavily illustrated tome covers more than three hundred different RPGs that have been published in the last five decades. Monsters, Aliens, and Holes in the Ground features (among other things) bunnies, ghostbusters, soap operas, criminal bears, space monsters, political intrigue, vampires, romance, and, of course, some dungeons and dragons. In a decade-by-decade breakdown, Horvath chronicles how RPGs have evolved in the time between their inception and the present day, offering a deep and gratifying glimpse into a hobby that has changed the way we think about games and play. The deluxe edition will include a foil-stamped cover and slipcase with a cloth binding, a ribbon, gilded edges, and an 8.5x11-inch card stock poster of the regular edition.
