Antique Hunter's Series

The third novel in the “delightful, page-turning” (Tom Ryan, USA TODAY bestselling author) Antique Hunter Series finds Freya, Aunt Carole, and friends searching for a missing colleague in picturesque Scotland. Hot on the heels of an art forger, a member of the Lockwood Antique Hunter’s Agency disappears while investigating an isolated castle deep in Scottish countryside. Freya and Aunt Carole race to her last known location and arrive in the wintry, snow-covered Scottish Borders. At the castle, they discover that a murdered laird in the vegetable garden and his priceless collection of silverware has been stolen. Local police believe Freya’s missing team member was involved with the robbery and murder...but where is she now? As a snowstorm descends on the castle, Freya and Carole call in back-up to help uncover what happened that fateful night. As each question is met with more mystery, the clock is ticking to find their friend and the murderer before they are cut off from the outside world. Another delightfully gripping and endearing mystery, the Antique Hunter’s Series provides “great characters, great story, and you’re always eager for the next one” (Ian Moore, author of Death and Croissants).

Vancouver Storm Series

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • In this steamy hockey romance, a single dad and hockey coach must mentor his biggest temptation—from the viral TikTok author of the Vancouver Storm series. Former star player Tate Ward has become easily the best coach in professional hockey, leading the Vancouver Storm team to victory. Everyone is in love with the handsome, authoritative single dad—except Jordan Hathaway, the newest staff member on the Vancouver Storm team.

When her father threatens to sell the team, though, she’s forced to put her grievances aside and work with the man who likes everyone but her—: Coach Tate Ward. But beneath his controlled exterior, Tate is funny, encouraging, and protective. He moves her Jordan into his guest house, trusts her with his daughter, and fires the person who made her cry.

Write Your Own Fan Fiction

Dreamers and Dukes

"I have a duty to warn you: do not expect anything from Benjamin Scarsdale. And above all, do not lose your heart to him."

Lady Charlotte Aston was never taught how to fire a pistol. She was certainly never taught how to partake in a duel. And so, she never considered the possibility that she might find herself standing in a misty field at the crack of dawn, pistol in hand, opposite the king of London's underworld.

Mr. Benjamin Scarsdale is too familiar with death to be daunted by the prospect of standing twenty paces downfield from a flying bullet. But his challenger's capricious way of life has Benjamin itching to teach him a lesson-how quickly one can find themselves out of charity with fate.

However, when Benjamin's bullet lodges itself in the shoulder of Charlotte Aston and not her good-for-nothing brother, Benjamin finds he cannot walk away. After a rather unexpected proposition, Benjamin soon realises that Lady Charlotte Aston might just be the thing that unravels his entire empire.

With their worlds so far apart, will they be able to overcome the chasm that divides them and give their love a shot?

The first book in an unapologetically feminist Regency romance series, perfect for anyone whose favourite character in Bridgerton is Miss Penelope Featherington.

To Shoot a Sinner

Bloomsbury Spectres, Hauntings and Horrors

Exploring current debates in creative writing about the borders between fiction and creative nonfiction, this collection of essays draws on concepts of the uncanny and hauntology to challenge, subvert and transgress the boundary between forms. Hauntology, as originally defined by Derrida, challenges the certainties of ontology, in a similar way to debates about truth in creative nonfiction; by bringing together authors that undermine the fiction/nonfiction binary, Haunted Writing considers the ways in which real events and experiences haunt writers as they craft their work. Offering insight into how the past - both personal and historical - is experienced and understood in the present, this book includes writing from a diverse group of established and emerging authors who situate their work on genre boundaries and discuss their own creative practice to show how their writing 'haunts' real events. With essays covering a range of ideas from subjectivity, intersectionality and challenging dominant versions of history, to braiding personal and researched stories, playfulness, experimentation and creating stories from archival documents, this beautifully written collection intervenes in contemporary discussions in creative writing and culture surrounding ownership, appropriation and ethics. Bringing a fresh voice and new perspectives to ever-present questions within creative writing, Haunted Writing uncovers how the past is a spectre that disrupts contemporary writing.

Haunted Writing

Girl, Interrupted meets The Handmaid’s Tale in 1940s North Carolina, as a young woman is accused of “promiscuity” and unjustly incarcerated at The State Industrial Farm Colony for Women… Based on the long-buried history of the American Plan, this powerful and shockingly timely story of resistance and resilience exposes the real government program designed to regulate women’s bodies and sexuality throughout the first half of the 20th century. A Publishers Marketplace BUZZ BOOKS Selection | Indie Next Pick | LibraryReads Selection | Goodreads Top 10 Readers' Favorite Historical Fiction Titles of the Year “Both a cautionary tale and a deeply compassionate rendering of women wrongly imprisoned in a system designed to break them, Everhart’s propulsive story is filled with injustice, intrigue, and the determination to fight back.” —LISA WINGATE, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shelterwood On a brisk February morning while walking to the diner where she works, 24 year-old Ruth Foster is stopped by the local sheriff. He insists she accompany him to a health clinic, threatening to arrest her if she doesn’t undergo testing in order to preserve decency and prevent the spread of sexual disease. Though Ruth has never shared more than a chaste kiss with a man, by day’s end she is one of dozens of women held at the State Industrial Farm Colony for Women. Some are there because they were reported for promiscuity by neighbors, husbands, strangers. Some were accused of prostitution. Others were just pretty and unmarried. Or poor and “suspicious.” One was eating dinner alone in a restaurant. Another spoke to a soldier.&nbsp; Josephine’s sin was running a business as a single woman.&nbsp;Maude’s was trying to drown her sorrows. Frances had lost her mind. Opal married a man with a mean streak. Some, like 15-year-old Stella, are brought in because they’re victims of assault. She’s too naive and broken to understand how unjust this imprisonment is. Superintendent Dorothy Baker, convinced that she’s transforming degenerate souls into upstanding members of society, oversees the women’s medical treatment and “training” until they’re deemed ready for parole. Sooner or later, everyone at the Colony learns to abide by Mrs. Baker’s rule book or face the consequences—solitary confinement, grueling work assignments, and worse. But some refuse to be cowed. Some find ways to fight back – at any cost… “A remarkable fusion of research and imagination [with] vivid scenes, compelling characters, perfect pacing—but most impressive of all is Everhart’s creation of Dorothy Baker. She is one of the most memorable characters I’ve read in recent fiction, and further proof of Donna Everhart’s immense talent.” —Ron Rash, award-winning author of Serena

Women of a Promiscuous Nature

Das (fast) perfekte Fräulein und sein Butler

Nach einem gewöhnlichen Tag kommt es zu einem großen Schock, als Hinako plötzlich vor Itsuki zusammenbricht. Der Grund wird schnell klar: Es war Erschöpfung, die sich langsam aber sicher ansammelte, während sie Tag für Tag ein "perfektes Ich" spielen musste. 
 

 Auf ihren schlanken und schwachen Schultern ruht immerhin das Schicksal ihrer Familie und der Konohana Gruppe. Itsuki wird schnell klar, dass er sie auf jeden Fall unterstützen muss. Nicht nur als Butler, sondern auch, weil er sich um sie sorgt. Und so beginnt sich ihre Beziehung im Geheimen langsam aber sicher zu verändern ...
 

 Jedoch ruft auch die gleiche Arbeit wie zuvor: Das frühe Wecken, das Helfen beim Anziehen ihrer Kleidung, das geheime Essen von Eis in ihrem gigantischen Bad ... Und dazu kommt eine Einladung von Mirei Tennouji und Narika Miyakojima zu einer Lerngruppe ... Das Leben geht weiter, und für die beiden wartet nichts als Spaß und Freude.
