On a rain-soaked night in modern-day Paris, Larkspur Lee and her academic rivals find themselves at the center of an impossible crime—the murder of their university’s headmistress, the immortal Petronelle Flamel.
In the aftermath of Flamel’s death, the school devolves into chaos. The mysterious investigator assigned to the case, Violaine, believes a cult known as the Promethean Genesis is responsible for Flamel’s murder. But Lark, who knows all too well what kind of horrors that the Prometheans commit, will do anything to stay out of the cult’s reach. Matters are complicated when the mentor she crossed an ocean and a continent to escape re-enters her life, enticing her to his side once again while secretly wielding an agenda of his own.
As the Prometheans’ plans come to fruition and the university’s dark history comes to light, Lark has no choice but to decide whether the power she desires is truly worth the price.

The deck has always been stacked against her.
Kestrel has trained her whole life to compete in the Tarot Trials. Her mother won once, earning a place among the five ruling Cinque—then paid for it with her life, executed for alleged treason against the Minor Court.
But fortune favors the bold.
Now it falls to Kestrel to take up her mother’s mantle as Champion of the Moon, enter the Trials, and face her fate. If she can master her new powers of shadow and illusion, navigate the poisonous game of alliances and lies, and corner the fellow Champion who dealt the killing blow to her mother years ago, she may uncover the truth she’s seeking without losing her head . . . or her heart. But in the Trials, betrayal is a question of when, not if. And winning the game isn’t about what she must do to win, but who she needs to survive.

Supay lives under a curse of eternal death. For the greed of their god, the people are damned to live as human . . . and then again as muki.
For Solana, survival means staying sharp and staying alone. Armed with only a blood-forged dagger, she’s carved out a life as Supay’s fiercest slayer, freeing souls even as she’s trapped by duty.
But when a twist of fate offers her the title of Royal Demon Hunter, Solana finally finds a path to the freedom she’s always craved . . . but it draws her closer to the darkness threatening Supay—darkness that calls to her soul alone.
Torn between turning her back on a fight she never asked for and the pull of loyalties old and new—including an irresistible connection to a man who should be her enemy—Solana must decide…
Choose fate and freedom?
Or death, destruction . . . and revolution.

Archivist Celia Kiel has spent her life on the remote campus of Basin College in the southern Ozarks. Once a jewel of women’s higher education in the South, the school now molders on its mountaintop, its endowment thinly supported by the bequeathed estate of 19th century writer Beatrice Donahue. Celia guards the legacy of this venerated yet scandalous author who has been the object of her illicit desire since childhood.
When the administration announces the college’s imminent closure, Celia discovers a manuscript pickled in formaldehyde, and with it, a chance to save the only home she’s ever known. She will forge Beatrice’s infamous lost work, a spellbinding horror written toward her life’s tumultuous end. To do it, she is forced to recruit her professional rival, literature postdoc Joan Harriot, who has both an astounding talent for mimicry and a dark secret of her own. As their world closes in and the ghosts of the Victorian past encroach, their creative collaboration spirals into an obsession more twisted than even their beloved Beatrice could have penned.

Tyr survives the end of the world the way he’s survived everything else—by taking what he wants and never looking back.
Then a resupply raid turns up something unexpected: a fierce, beautiful prisoner who looks at Tyr like she’d rather slit his throat than submit. Tyr’s alpha instincts give way to something much darker—a strong, unquenchable craving that cannot be ignored . . . or denied. He wants her—too much.
And that’s the most dangerous weakness of all.
Everyone knows these steel-eyed, hardware-wielding, tattooed Viking raiders are monsters. But Helena isn’t scared of monsters, and she has a mission of her own. After two years on the run, she knows she just has to bide her time and escape when the moment is right.
But the man who claims her is nothing like she imagined.
As desire scorches into obsession and enemies close in, Helena has to decide how far she’s willing to go—and what she’s willing to lose.

World-renowned chef Patrick O’Connell has been recognized as a pioneer of American cuisine; his internationally acclaimed restaurant in the Virginia countryside, the Inn at Little Washington, is Michelin-starred and a Relais & Châteaux hotel. Named for the three historic streets in the little town where O’Connell’s life and career have taken root, MAIN, MIDDLE & GAY chronicles O’Connell’s winding journey through the rough-and-tumble restaurant world.
Growing up gay in the 1950s and working as a paperboy and a cook at a hamburger joint, O’Connell found his place with other misfits in the addictive restaurant scene, where he learned to be nimble and grew up fast while working long hours and late nights with colorful characters. He lived free-spirited on farms with friends and traveled Europe, teaching himself to cook along the way. When he opened his restaurant in an old abandoned garage, he had no idea it would grow to the heights it has achieved today.
In his first-ever memoir, O’Connell shows us the colorful evolution that has led the Inn at Little Washington to become a global destination for foodies and travelers alike.
