About the book
Floral shop owner Tessa swore off romance for good. After one heartbreak too many, she’s perfectly happy arranging bouquets, not relationships. But when her meddling best friends secretly sign her up for the Sweetpines matchmaking festival, she ends up “paired” with Beau Callahan, her bestie’s broody brother and the town’s quiet handyman. He’s gruff, guarded, and definitely not her type. Still, fake-dating for the festival can’t hurt... right? Between public appearances, small-town gossip, and one very cozy one-bed cabin, sparks fly faster than either expected. But Beau’s past isn’t staying buried, and Tessa’s heart isn’t following the plan. If he can’t open up, their sweet pretend romance may wilt before it ever blossoms.

He wants to save her. She wants to hide.
She's damaged. He's determined.
Fate brought them together. Love binds them.
Johnny Kavanagh is the definition of popular. He is an all-star rugby player with loads of friends, which means he should be enjoying the many perks of his life. But what people don't know is that he has been dealing with a painful injury that could halt the magnificent trajectory of his career. This means he has no time for distractions or mistakes. Especially not a girlfriend.
Shannon Lynch has been bullied all her life. She is shy and would rather hide herself away to make it through school. But when she arrives at Tommen College for a fresh start, she meets the notorious Johnny Kavanagh on her first day in a not-so-romantic way. What follows is a complicated friendship that turns into undeniable chemistry. It seems that Shannon won't be able to hold onto the anonymous status she once hoped for. But maybe that's alright?
Johnny won't give up on Shannon. No matter what it might cost them both.
Filled with angst and an attraction like no other, Binding 13 will suck you into the bingeworthy Boys of Tommen universe.

About the book
Elena Freire Valls just wanted a shower, a nap, and maybe a drink. What she got instead was a dead actor in her building and her ex-boyfriend showing up like a bad plot twist. David, the journalist who exposed Hollywood’s latest scandal, is now suspect number one.
For Elena, clearing his name could mean saving her career and possibly her sanity. But working with David means long nights, sharp banter, and a reminder of the chemistry that never really died. Between red carpets and crime scenes, they’re neck-deep in secrets, lies, and one dangerously unresolved romance.
As the clues pile up and the sparks fly, Elena must decide which story she’s really chasing, the truth about a murder or the one about her heart.

Leech
Horror · Dystopian · Sci-Fi · Speculative Fiction
Our take
Hiron Ennes’s Leech, winner of the RUSA Best Horror Novel of 2023, merges gothic dread with sci-fi brilliance. Praised by Gillian Flynn as “beautifully written” and “strangely humane,” this 4.4 out of 5 stars debut follows a parasitic doctor battling a rival infection in a frozen chateau. Equal parts The Thing and Wuthering Heights, it is horrifying, elegant, and unforgettable.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Deep in the frozen north, the baron’s doctor is dead. His replacement arrives to uncover how the body failed—and discovers a secret more unsettling than decay. The Institute has ruled medicine for centuries, its doctors more organism than individual, a collective mind that heals, controls, and consumes.
But now something new is spreading through the chateau. A parasite. A rival. A living contagion that threatens to devour the Institute itself. As the doctor hunts the infection, identity blurs and evolution becomes warfare.
Hiron Ennes’s Leech is a haunting blend of gothic horror and science fiction, a meditation on body, mind, and the cost of survival.
Humanity is no longer the dominant species. The question is whether it ever was.

About the book
Step into The October Country, where twilight lingers, midnights never end, and every shadow hides a story. In nineteen haunting tales, Ray Bradbury peels back the skin of the ordinary to reveal the strange, the sorrowful, and the supernatural beneath.
A drowned city whispers of the dead. A carnival hums with secret hungers. In forgotten towns and fog-drenched hills, the everyday tilts toward the uncanny, and human longing becomes its own ghost.
With poetic dread and piercing empathy, Bradbury captures the dark beauty of fear itself, transforming horror into art.
For readers of The Martian Chronicles and The Illustrated Man, this collection is both a love letter to the macabre and an invitation to linger where autumn never ends.
