Book Description
Blood and victory. There is no other way. The “fresh and fascinating magical world” (School Library Journal) of The Impostor Queen expands in this companion novel that answers the question: who is the real queen of the Kupari? Ansa has always been a fighter. As a child, she fought the invaders who murdered her parents and snatched her as a raid prize. She fought for her place next to Thyra, the daughter of the Krigere Chieftain. She fought for her status as a warrior in her tribe: blood and victory are her way of life. But the day the Krigere cross the great lake and threaten the witch queen of the Kupari, everything changes. Cursed by the queen with fire and ice, Ansa is forced to fight against an invisible enemy—the dark magic that has embedded itself deep in her bones. The more she tries to hide it, the more dangerous it becomes. And with the Krigere numbers decimated and the tribe under threat from the traitorous brother of the dead Chieftain, Ansa is torn between her loyalty to the Krigere, her love for Thyra, and her own survival instincts. With her world in chaos and each side wanting to claim her for their own, only one thing is certain: unless Ansa can control the terrible magic inside her, everything she’s fought for will be destroyed.

Book Description
From one of England's most celebrated writers, a funny and superbly observed novella about the Queen of England and the subversive power of reading When her corgis stray into a mobile library parked near Buckingham Palace, the Queen feels duty-bound to borrow a book. Discovering the joy of reading widely (from J. R. Ackerley, Jean Genet, and Ivy Compton-Burnett to the classics) and intelligently, she finds that her view of the world changes dramatically. Abetted in her newfound obsession by Norman, a young man from the royal kitchens, the Queen comes to question the prescribed order of the world and loses patience with the routines of her role as monarch. Her new passion for reading initially alarms the palace staff and soon leads to surprising and very funny consequences for the country at large. With the poignant and mischievous wit of The History Boys, England's best loved author Alan Bennett revels in the power of literature to change even the most uncommon reader's life.

Book Description
“I’m pretty sure I’m the only guy in my school who can replace a faulty kick-down switch and also create the perfect smoky eye.” The Weyward family has been haunted by a curse for generations—if a Weyward falls in love before their seventeenth birthday, the person they love dies. Sam doesn’t plan to fall for anyone in the weeks before his birthday. He’ll spend his time working at the Eezy-Freeze with his dad; cooking up some midsummer magic with his grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother (the Grands); and experimenting with drag with the help of the queens at the Shangri-La, the local gay club. But when a new guy comes to town, Sam finds himself in trouble when they strike up a friendship that might be way more than that. As Sam’s birthday approaches and he still hasn’t quite fallen in love, the curse seems to get more powerful and less specific about who it targets. A mysterious girl Sam talks to on the phone late at night and a woman he’s only seen in a dream might have the answers he’s been looking for—but time is running out to save the people he cares about.

Sun, surf, sass, sorcery and sexy, sexy pirates. Welcome to Caribbean... Captain's Log Date: Seven days since the mutiny Time: Super late Drinks: Not enough This time last week, I didn't believe in curses, but that was before I got mutinied on, marooned, and captured. Now I'm the captain of a cursed ship where if we let our guard down, some smug evil spirit invades our minds and tries to trap us in a horrific netherworld. And let's not forget that there's a bounty on me so huge, even I'm tempted to cash myself in. Why does someone want to pay that much money for me? I wish I knew. Right now there's three hot men in my cabin and I can't have sex with any of them: There's my ex, Captain Dauntless, ridiculously handsome with an ego to match the size of his...ship. There's the mysterious Sebastian, one of the hottest peddlers of pleasure in the caribbean, who wants to give me a good time but is definitely hiding something. And there's the Commodore Benedict St Stephens, my nemesis, my prisoner, who has a hard-on for killing me instead of a regular hard-on but I'm sure I could talk him 'round. What can I say, there's a lot of love-hate happening in this room, as well as a lot of hate-hate. I just want gold, drink and sex. Instead, I've got to deal with this curse and this bounty, before they get me killed. ****** Pirate Queen's Curse is the first in a series of slow-burn, high snark RH, featuring the kick-ass snark-filled Captain Magpie Flint, the crew of the Queen's Liberty, and four hot men, because why choose?There is a HEA at the end of the series.
