The forecast calls for Grey Skyes... with a chance of trouble...

When her client's diamonds go missing, Bernice Lucia must leave her corporate office in Chicago and travel to the tropical paradise of Isla Peligrosa to investigate a casino that is not afraid to load the dice. She's in treacherous water with smuggling rings, liars, and deceit, but the roguish Grey Skyes may be just the diamond thief she's been looking for.

Fans of ROMANCING THE STONE and OCEAN'S ELEVEN will love SKYE'S THE LIMIT, book one in the frothy rom-sus series GREY SKYES ADVENTURES.

My life is my job. It’s all I need.

Or so I thought.

Everyone around me assumes I’m arrogant and cold-hearted, but it’s a persona.

One that keeps me safe in LA.

I might be at the top, but looking around, it’s lonely as hell.

Not that I’d ever utter those words out loud. Not a chance.

And women come and go like the wind.

None of them are looking for real love.

Until her. A new PR agent that I wasn’t expecting to like at all.

But she shakes me to the core of my being, wakes me up, and forces me to feel things I thought were long gone.

I only have one rule–never get involved with anyone in the business.

Now I just need to convince her of that.

She tried to be a hero... will she die a traitor?

Star Captain Dani Devereaux dreamt of following in her father's footsteps... but she'd never guess where they'd lead her.

For now: it's her mission to keep the universe safe from an enemy packing more than just a grudge.

Dani and her crew always save the day, until they didn't.

Things instantly spiral out of control.

Will this mean the end of Dani's career? Her life? Or is this just the beginning?

Heads will roll in this first installment of the Ardent Redux Saga -- an episodic space opera serial.

You'll love this space opera, because the excitement never ends.

Get it now.

A string of patricides rocks 1916 Dublin and a washed-up Scottish doctor receives a mysterious manuscript from a fellow Scotsman recounting his dark experiences in the pioneer city of Seattle in 1889. As the doctor reads the manuscript, he’s made aware the murders in Seattle are connected to those in Dublin and he and the author crossed paths many years before, and under tragic circumstances. In Seattle, a tale of corruption and conspiracy unravels at the feet of a crazed serial killer hell-bent on halting historical progress. It’s just a matter of time before the city will burn. The doctor must decide if the author is an ally, or the killer himself, amidst an atmosphere of political instability and impending revolt. Throw Away Faces is a raw look into the abuse of power, the well of madness, and the inevitability of tragedy versus the power of redemption.

World War II comes to Farleigh Place, the ancestral home of Lord Westerham and his five daughters, when a soldier with a failed parachute falls to his death on the estate. After his uniform and possessions raise suspicions, MI5 operative and family friend Ben Cresswell is covertly tasked with determining if the man is a German spy. The assignment also offers Ben the chance to be near Lord Westerham’s middle daughter, Pamela, whom he furtively loves. But Pamela has her own secret: she has taken a job at Bletchley Park, the British code-breaking facility.

As Ben follows a trail of spies and traitors, which may include another member of Pamela’s family, he discovers that some within the realm have an appalling, history-altering agenda. Can he, with Pamela’s help, stop them before England falls?

Inspired by the events and people of World War II, writer Rhys Bowen crafts a sweeping and riveting saga of class, family, love, and betrayal.

Fall in love with this hot and hilarious romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Jasmine Guillory, and Christina Lauren!
 

Wartime Holland. Who can you trust?

Deep in the Veluwe woods lies a secret that frustrates the Germans. Convinced that Jews are hiding close by they can find no proof.

The secret is Berkenhout, a purpose-built village of huts sheltering dozens of persecuted people.
Young tearaway Jan roams the woods looking for adventure and fallen pilots. His dream comes true when he stumbles across an American airman, Donald C. McDonald. But keeping him hidden sets off a disastrous chain of events.

Sofie, a Jewish Dutch girl, struggles to adapt to living in Berkenhout, away from her family and friends. As weeks turn to months, she’s worried they’ll abandon her altogether.

Henk Hauer, head woodman, is in charge of building the underground huts and ensuring the Berkenhout inhabitants stay safe.
But many grow suspicious of his liaisons with the Germans. Is he passing on secret information that could endanger lives?

All it takes is one small fatal slip to change the course of all their lives for ever.

Review, May 2018:
"It's a cracking book, gripping, sensitive heartfelt and excruciating all at the same time. I've already recommended it to loads of people. It's a wonderful story as well and the characters are so human. You do a wonderful job of not making them 'war caricatures' that so often happens in literature set in that time, but they all come across as believable humans, with flawed personalities caught in personal as well as political turmoil. Although it's a book set in war-time, it's more a book about people and their relationships struggling in a given situation; the war is the backdrop. Which is as it should be. Human stories first. I'll be sad to finish it!" - Liam Gerrard, BAFTA-nominated actor.

• Pride and Prejudice was only half the story •
 
If Elizabeth Bennet had the washing of her own petticoats, Sarah often thought, she’d most likely be a sight more careful with them.
 
In this irresistibly imagined belowstairs answer to Pride and Prejudice, the servants take center stage. Sarah, the orphaned housemaid, spends her days scrubbing the laundry, polishing the floors, and emptying the chamber pots for the Bennet household. But there is just as much romance, heartbreak, and intrigue downstairs at Longbourn as there is upstairs. When a mysterious new footman arrives, the orderly realm of the servants’ hall threatens to be completely, perhaps irrevocably, upended.

Jo Baker dares to take us beyond the drawing rooms of Jane Austen’s classic—into the often overlooked domain of the stern housekeeper and the starry-eyed kitchen maid, into the gritty daily particulars faced by the lower classes in Regency England during the Napoleonic Wars—and, in doing so, creates a vivid, fascinating, fully realized world that is wholly her own. 

This ebook edition includes a Reading Group Guide. 

Ava fudged a little on her résumé to land her dream job. She’s been working her curvy booty overtime to get her boss’s new lingerie line off the ground. But when her boss’s brother comes in and says Ava should be the face—and body—of the campaign, she’s having second thoughts.

Lucas knows what he wants, and the second he sees every lush inch of Ava all bets are off. She’s not only the one for the job but the one for him, and he’ll do whatever it takes to make her see it.

Warning: This obsessed hero doesn’t hold back, and we were more than happy to let him take the reins. Find out what happens when the thick girl gets the alpha and things really heat up!

Join Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Virgin River and Thunder Point series, as she explores the healing powers of rural Colorado in a brand-new story of fresh starts, budding relationships and one woman's journey to finding the happiness she's long been missing 

Between the urban bustle of Denver and the high-stress environment of a career in neurosurgery, Maggie Sullivan has hit a wall. When an emergency high-risk procedure results in the death of a teenager, Maggie finds herself in the middle of a lawsuit—and experiencing levels of anxiety she's never faced before. She knows she needs to slow down before she burns out completely, and the best place she can think to do that is Sullivan's Crossing. 

Named for Maggie's great-grandfather, the land and charming general store at the crossroads of the Colorado and the Continental Divide Trails have been passed down through the generations and now belong to Maggie's eccentric father, Sully. When she shows up unannounced, he welcomes her with open arms, and she relishes the opportunity to indulge in his simple way of life. 

But shortly after arriving, Maggie's world is rocked once again and she must take on more responsibility than she'd planned. Though she's relieved a quiet and serious-looking hiker, Cal Jones, is willing to lend a hand, Maggie is suspicious of this mysterious man's eagerness to help—until she finds out the true reason for his deliberate isolation. 

Though Cal and Maggie each struggle with loss and loneliness, the time they spend together gives Maggie hope for something brighter just on the horizon...if only they can learn to find peace and healing—and perhaps love—with each other.

You can take the girl out of the force, but you can’t keep her away from the action...

Maggie Doyle moves to Ireland to escape her cheating ex and crumbling career in the San Francisco PD. When the most hated woman on Whisper Island is poisoned at her aunt’s Movie Theater Cafe, Maggie and her rock-hard muffins are hurled into the murder investigation.

A Keto Diet Instant Pot Cookbook for Beginners and Advanced users:
1000 Days of Instant Pot Keto Diet Recipe Cookbook 

You may be wondering how to take a keto diet, or maybe you feel a bit lost with so much information out there, and cookbooks with incomplete instructions, recipes that do not cover your needs, and most annoyingly, never ending blurb that never gets to the point.

 This is over because in the 1000 Day Keto Diet for Beginners you have covered:

• A guide on how to get your Keto diet Calories and Macros calculated bespoke to your needs.

• 1000 Days’ worth of ketogenic diet schedules for a variety of needs that will cover your requirements.

• FULL COLOUR professionally taken pictures. All recipes include beautifully shot images.

• Recipes including two cooking versions: You will not stop cooking because a recipe does not fit to your needs.

• Nutritional values for all recipes and snacks included and summarized in detailed tables.

• Beautiful layout: Easy to follow recipes with all the info you need, including replacement for certain ingredients

• Macros and calories detailed, so you never have any doubts about what to eat.

• The added eating schedules include a wide range of calorie requirements and nutritional needs.

Why is this book better but most importantly different to the rest?

If you do a quick search online or in libraries, most Keto recipe cookbooks fall in two categories:

• Cheaply made cookbooks: with NO PICTURES and no explanation as to how to approach the diet. Oftentimes just include a long list of recipes with high fat content with little or no focus on how to get recipes matching your needs.

• The Usual Best Sellers: These ones are made to draw your attention and will have pictures, although most of the times not for every single recipe. They give loads of broad advice and usually end up with 21-day challenges Not fitting to your needs.

Readers deserve to learn, so in this cookbook:

1) You will be told about how to calculate your keto macros and calorie requirements within the first pages of the book.
2) Once you have your objectives set, you will be able to go straight to carefully designed schedules, choose one and get started.
3) A list of the required number of recipes is summarized for every combination of 2 week blocks of schedules, so you can buy your ingredients ahead, start cooking, storing and stop thinking.
4) The recipes included have full colour pictures, in-depth instructions on how to cook them and most of them display two different versions of the same recipe.
5) You can create your own schedules because recipes have different versions, allowing for flexibility when choosing recipes that add up to your required needs, should you choose building a schedule on your own.

The Lamb Will Slaughter the Lion by Margaret Killjoy pits utopian anarchists against rogue demon deer in this dropkick-in-the-mouth punk fantasy that Alan Moore calls "scary and energetic."

Searching for clues about her best friend’s mysterious suicide, Danielle ventures to the squatter, utopian town of Freedom, Iowa, and witnesses a protector spirit — in the form of a blood-red, three-antlered deer — begin to turn on its summoners. She and her new friends have to act fast if they’re going to save the town — or get out alive.
