On the run from a botched robbery, Stu plans one last heist. There's a flood of illegal money flowing through the harbor offices of Gosport, New Jersey. Stu gets a job on the docks, waiting and watching. But the unexpected rears its head. He falls in love with Katie, the young owner of a ramshackle Victorian mansion. As he helps Katie renovate the huge old Painted Lady, he realizes both Katie and the mansion are filled with secrets. Despite himself, Stu finds himself settling in. He gets involved in the lives of his neighbors. As he becomes accepted by his fellow dockworkers, Stu begins to wonder if he can't make a go of civilian life. But Stu's past soon catches up to him and he's forced to go through with the heist. What he doesn't know is that Katie's past is also catching up, and is even more dangerous. She isn't what she appears, nor is the mansion, and as their pasts collide, Stu and Katie must try to survive together what neither could survive alone.

A wealthy woman suspects something is off about the luxurious complex she lives in . . . and she is right, in this riveting domestic-suspense novel from international bestselling author Alexandra Burt. Donna Pryor lives in the lap of luxury. She spends her days in a beautifully appointed condo. Her every whim is catered to by a dedicated staff, and she does not want for anything. Except for news of her adult daughter. Or an ex-husband who takes her calls. Donna knows something is wrong, but she can't quite put her finger on it. As her life of privilege starts to feel more and more like a prison, the facade she has depended on begins to crumble. Somewhere in the ruins is the truth, and the closer Donna Pryor gets to it, the more likely it is to destroy her.
From debut author Daniel Abraham comes A Shadow in Summer, the first book in the Long Price Quartet fantasy series. The powerful city-state of Saraykeht is a bastion of peace and culture, a major center of commerce and trade. Its economy depends on the power of the captive spirit, Seedless, an andat bound to the poet-sorcerer Heshai for life. Enter the Galts, a juggernaut of an empire committed to laying waste to all lands with their ferocious army. Saraykeht, though, has always been too strong for the Galts to attack, but now they see an opportunity. If they can dispose of Heshai, Seedless's bonded poet-sorcerer, Seedless will perish and the entire city will fall. With secret forces inside the city, the Galts prepare to enact their terrible plan. In the middle is Otah, a simple laborer with a complex past. Recruited to act as a bodyguard for his girlfriend's boss at a secret meeting, he inadvertently learns of the Galtish plot. Otah finds himself as the sole hope of Saraykeht, either he stops the Galts, or the whole city and everyone in it perishes forever.
