About the book
“Ben Macintyre’s rollicking, spellbinding Agent Zigzag blends the spy-versus-spy machinations of John le Carré with the high farce of Evelyn Waugh.”—William Grimes, The New York Times (Editors’ Choice)
“Wildly improbable but entirely true . . . [a] compellingly cinematic spy thriller with verve.”—Entertainment Weekly
ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Entertainment Weekly
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post
Eddie Chapman was a charming criminal, a con man, and a philanderer. He was also one of the most remarkable double agents Britain has ever produced. In 1941, after training as German spy in occupied France, Chapman was parachuted into Britain with a revolver, a wireless, and a cyanide pill, with orders from the Abwehr to blow up an airplane factory. Instead, he contacted M15, the British Secret service, and for the next four years, Chapman worked as a double agent, a lone British spy at the heart of the German Secret Service. Inside the traitor was a man of loyalty; inside the villain was a hero. The problem for Chapman, his spymasters, and his lovers was to know where one persona ended and the other began. Based on recently declassified files, Agent Zigzag tells Chapman’s full story for the first time. It’s a gripping tale of loyalty, love, treachery, espionage, and the thin and shifting line between fidelity and betrayal.

About the book
A princess must win back her kingdom, save a prince, and restore peace in this fantasy by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Splintered series.
After Lyra—a princess incapable of speech or sound—is cast out of her kingdom of daylight by her wicked aunt, a witch saves her life, steals her memories, and raises her in an enchanted forest…disguised as a boy known only as Stain. Meanwhile, in Lyra's rival kingdom, the prince of thorns and night is dying, and the only way for him to break his curse is to wed the princess of daylight—for she is his true equal. As Lyra finds her way back to her identity, an imposter princess prepares to steal her betrothed prince and her crown. To win back her kingdom, save the prince, and make peace with the land of the night, Lyra must be loud enough to be heard without a voice, and strong enough to pass a series of tests—ultimately proving she's everything a traditional princess is not.
"A decadent fantasy anchored in childhood delights with vibrantly detailed writing and brilliantly theatrical subplots." —Kirkus Reviews
"[A] reimagining of "The Princess and the Pea" . . . An emotionally complex tale of fate, inner beauty, and found family that illustrates the strength of love born from friendship." —Publishers Weekly

About the book
She was Olympus's Queen. Its sacrifice. Its savior. Its destruction.
Long ago, Circe was Hermes' entire heart. The two women lived on the outskirts of Olympian society, content with a quiet life away from the spotlight. Then Circe caught the eye of Zeus…and was forced into a marriage that would take her freedom, her future, and in the end, her life. In the wake of the tragedy, gossip swirled about the woman Zeus married and (allegedly) murdered…but in time, everyone forgot about beautiful, tragic Circe.
Everyone but Hermes, who vowed on that day to bring Olympus to its knees.
Now, fifteen years later, a new Zeus rules the city, a new Hades protects his people, a new hope dawns…and Hermes has begun to think there may be things about Olympus worth saving. With Atalanta by her side—and slowly rebuilding her heart—Hermes may finally be ready to set aside her fury and seek the city's rebirth instead of its total annihilation. But there is a beautiful devil on Hermes' other shoulder: a devil who rose, blood-soaked, from where Zeus left her for dead years ago. A devil who has waited all this time to have her revenge.
And no matter their past, no matter the desperate love they once shared, no matter the complicated triad forming between the three women, Circe will not rest until all of Olympus lays shattered at her feet…and the gods help anyone who gets in her way.
A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Hermes and Atalanta and Circe.

Choose your retailer
About the book
From the New York Times–bestselling author: A glamorous French villa. A carefully curated guest list. A body in the pool.
The South of France is stunning, though not without its imperfections, from pickpockets to burglars to the occasional cold-blooded killer. But in his twenty-five years of service, Baxter—with a spotless reputation as a polished, well-mannered butler—has never run into any issues catering to the ultrawealthy. Until now.
Baxter’s latest assignment is at Villa Sérénité, where Alec Prescott is hosting a colorful cast of characters, including his ex-wife, his much younger lady friend, and some Hollywood hotshots, after the Cannes Film Festival. But it doesn’t take long for a week of sun, wine, and a family birthday celebration to devolve into bickering and backstabbing. And soon, secrets aren’t the only thing floating to the surface . . .
When one of the guests is found dead in the villa’s glittering pool, the unflappable Baxter must assist the gendarmes in determining who’s responsible. With some standing to gain and others motivated to take it away, fingers are pointed in all directions. A good butler is expected to see everything and say nothing—but what if he too becomes a target?
“Mackintosh shrewdly mixes soapy drama with quality sleuthing to deliver a diverting tale of murder and money.” —Publishers Weekly

About the book
I’ve been in love with Ryan Christianson since I was fourteen.
Eight years ago, he was my brother’s teammate, billeted in our home, and completely off-limits. Now, as I’m called up to the NHL for the first time, the moment I discover Ryan is my new linemate is also when I realize I’m still hopelessly gone for the man who calls me Baby Bouchard.
As rookies go, I’m doing well; hat-trick-in-my-third-game, heading-to-the-playoffs well. But I’ll always be just a kid to Ryan, who makes it clear there’s a line we’re not crossing. He says I’m too young, too new to the league, that getting involved would be a disaster. He’s probably right. But he’s also the one fixing my hair before media interviews, teaching me his signature backhand shot, and looking at me like he’s one second away from forgetting every reason we shouldn’t do this.
The smart thing? Finish the season, keep things professional, protect our careers.
But I didn’t make it to the NHL by playing it safe.
A sexy, forbidden love, MM hockey romance featuring rookie dreams, found family, and the courage to risk everything for love on and off the ice. Perfect for fans of Heated Rivalry, Tal Bauer, and Sarina Bowen.

About the book
Pine Valley is a school that’s rich in both history and legacy, and it’s once more opening its doors to another year of students.
Mackie Draper has wanted to be a race car driver since he first saw Noah Fletcher compete when he was a kid. He never expected to become a driver for Noah himself at the prestigious Starfire Racing, nor did he expect to fall in love with his boss, but here he is. Unfortunately, Noah doesn’t feel the same way, and Mackie’s broken heart might not be the only thing lost this season.
Noah Fletcher is a champion, with more wins under his belt than any other driver. Now, he’s the owner of Starfire Racing, and the only thing he wants is to lead his team to victory.

Having lost his partner when he was young, he promised he would never take life for granted again, but a chance encounter with an up-and-coming race team in Pine Valley reminds him of this vow.

What happens when love is realized too late?
With more than just winning on the line, it’s time to race toward their future.
Can Mackie, Noah, and Conan survive Pine Valley, or will sharing hearts be all that’s left?

About the book
For Sinner and Athena, captivity is forever.
After their fight against the ministry ended in capture, the two are forced to move to the barracks, where they’ll live and train with the other claimed mystic pairs.
The only problem?
They never completed the claiming.
As two of the most powerful mystics, Sinner and Athena try their best to convince everyone their bond is complete, even as the truth seems to slip further and further away.
Only the claimed survive here.
And even that might not be enough.
As the deadly war games approach, their forged connection strains.
But something else simmers beneath the surface… something that connects them beyond the strength of any claiming.
Sinner and Athena never imagined claiming with anyone, let alone each other.
But options are running out.
Bond or die.
Unless it’s already too late…
