Book excerpt: From author Rosie Cranie-Higgs comes a masterpiece of psychological horror and suspense set against the snowy and stark Swiss Alps. Deftly mixing Scandinavian folklore and dark fairy tales, Rosie’s creepy and atmospheric Whiteland series “takes readers down a terror-filled rabbit hole…” (Publishers Weekly) to a realm that is impossible to leave. It’s been one year since sisters Kira and Romy escaped the twisted realm of Whiteland. Desperate and lonely, Kira has no one to talk to, or to convince her that she’s not crazy, and that everything in Whiteland really did happen. Worse, Romy remembers nothing and Kira just can’t bring herself to make her sister remember. On New Year’s Eve, Kira agrees to go with her friends to a nightclub, where she hopes to finally forget everything and start fresh. Instead, she runs headlong into her past. Callum is there. He’s alive and his memories of Whiteland are intact. But Callum isn’t the only thing that left Whiteland. A huldra has escaped, too, and it only has three things on its mind: punishment, revenge, and hunting down the trio that escaped. Now the three friends are on the run in the real world. Little do they know that the farther they go, the closer they are heading into madness. The only thing worse than going into Whiteland is when it comes out after you.

Book excerpt: An unputdownable queer coming-of-age rom-com about life and love in Hollywood. • "Both an irresistible love story and a riveting exploration of Hollywood dynamics.” —Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times bestselling author of The Ex Talk For aspiring cinematographer Luna Roth, coming out as bisexual at twenty-four is proving more difficult than she anticipated. Sure, her best friend and fellow queer Romy is thrilled for her—but she has no interest in coming out to her backwards parents, she wouldn't know how to flirt with a girl if one fell at her feet, and she has no sexual history to build off. Not to mention she really needs to focus her energy on escaping her emotionally-abusive-but-that’s-Hollywood talent manager boss and actually get working under a real director of photography anyway. When she meets twenty-eight-year-old A-list actress Valeria Sullivan around the office, Luna thinks she’s found her solution. She'll use Valeria's interest in her cinematography to get a PA job on the set of Valeria's directorial debut—and if Valeria is as gay as Luna suspects, and she happens to be Luna's route to losing her virginity, too . . . well, that's just an added bonus. Enlisting Romy’s help, Luna starts the juggling act of her life—impress Valeria’s DP to get another job after this one, get as close to Valeria as possible, and help Romy with her own career moves. But when Valeria begins to reciprocate romantic interest in Luna, the act begins to crumble—straining her relationship with Romy and leaving her job prospects precarious. Now Luna has to figure out if she can she fulfill her dreams as a filmmaker, keep her best friend, and get the girl. . . or if she’s destined to end up on the cutting room floor.

Book excerpt: Getting lucky…means getting more than she bargained for… I’ve been talking myself out of falling for Matt Carter for a long time. Easier said than done. He’s tall and fit, with sexily mussed red hair and a mischievous glint in his eye that never goes away. He’s been my rock for a decade—there when I needed him for support or just a good laugh. In college, he used to promise that everything would work out all right…and I always believed him. So, when I called him up two weeks ago about my latest fertility issues, first he told a joke, then he promised to get me through it. Which is why I accepted his offer to be my sperm donor. When I meet him to discuss IVF at his San Francisco mansion—the perks of selling groundbreaking software in his mid-twenties—it’s hard to remind myself I’m strictly in the friend zone. And when he asks me what I want from him, I’m not sure why I tell the truth. “What I want is you.” What was supposed to be a no-strings agreement gets complicated when we end up in bed…again and again. Matt never wanted to be a father, so I don’t expect him to stick around. A relationship is strictly off the table, because Matt moves on when love comes into the picture. But when we’re together, it’s electric. It’s hotter than friendship, better than sex. What it probably should be is over…but that’s one word I can’t bring myself to say. “Dare is Harlequin’s hottest line yet. Every book should come with a free fan. I dare you to try them!” —Tiffany Reiz, international bestselling author Sexy. Passionate. Bold. Discover Harlequin DARE, a new line of fun, edgy and sexually explicit romances for the fearless female.

Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Sun at Midnight comes a saga of family, love, and betrayal set against the backdrop of two world wars. Cousins Clio Hirsh and Grace Stretton were born within hours of each other and raised as sisters in the innocent days before the Great War. But as they grow up, Grace is the one who enchants all those who meet her, leaving shy and quiet Clio to fade into the background. Even as time, ambition, and the winds of war take their lives in different directions—Grace into the arms of a dependable stockbroker and Clio into the literary world of Paris and Berlin—jealousy and bitterness simmer beneath their friendship. Decades later, Clio recounts the story of her family to her biographer. She tells of her brother Jake’s wartime experiences and medical career; Clio and Grace’s early years in bohemian London; younger brother Julius’s career as a concert violinist. But for herself, Clio remembers a different story―one of tragedy, heartbreak, and secrets. And above all, the surprising truth about her mesmerizing cousin Grace. “A master storyteller.” —Cosmopolitan
