  Time Enough at Last - One...

  Henry Bemis has always wanted one simple thing: uninterrupted time with a book. Not a stolen paragraph in a vault, not a newspaper headline skimmed in fear of interruption, but hours—days—alone with the printed word. When catastrophe wipes away the routines and voices that once crowded his life, Henry steps into a silence so complete it feels unreal. The city lies shattered. The air holds no sirens, no traffic, no raised voices calling him back to duty. For the first time, no one tells him to hurry. 
  What Henry discovers in that stillness feels like a miracle. The doors that once seemed closed to him now stand open. The shelves he only dared to admire from the sidewalk are within reach. He is surrounded by more books than he could read in a lifetime, and time stretches before him without limit. Yet as he settles in to begin at last, the fragile thread that holds his dream together trembles. In a world already broken, one small failure may matter more than everything that fell before it. 
  Lynn Venable crafted one of the most unforgettable cautionary tales ever published in science fiction magazines. First appearing in the early 1950s, this story struck readers with its sharp emotional turn and stark sense of irony. Venable wrote for magazines such as IF and Galaxy during a period when speculative fiction was wrestling openly with nuclear fear and private longing. Time Enough At Last remains her most enduring work, later adapted for television and etched permanently into genre history. Few short stories land so quietly and then refuse to let go.

  Three wonderful Regency Christmas tales to warm you up on a cold winter's day, read by Timothy Campbell. 
  A Scot For Christmas - A friends-to-lovers Christmas Romance! 
  Lady Emma Duckworth has despaired of ever receiving an offer of marriage. The daughter of an Earl, with a large dowry, should have no difficulty finding a husband. Nicknamed ‘Giraffeworth’, apparently towering over men is not conducive to matrimony. She’s therefore decided to embrace her life and future as a spinster but has one wish to fulfil before she locks herself away. She has to convince the man who owns her heart, a man who barely acknowledges she’s alive, to give her one night of passion. 
  Lord Of Pleasure (For Christmas) - An enemies to lovers Christmas Romance 
  A few days before Christmas, Lady Georgiana Marsh has snuck onto the Earl of Hascombe’s estate to take back Apollo, the colt her father had no right to sell. Unfortunately, the devastatingly handsome Daniel Kerrich, Baron de Winter, would rather spend time in the stables than in his brother-in-law’s drawing room and catches her in the act. Before Daniel can arrest the stunning beauty, she distracts him with a kiss under the mistletoe and… knocks him out cold. Now Daniel is determined to get his revenge. 
  The Duke's Christmas List - A Brother's Best Friend Christmas Romance 
  Lady Harriet Rondell has particular notions with regard to her future. She refuses to follow her brother’s decree and society’s conventions, by accepting Alexander Montague, the Duke of Bladestow’s offer of a marriage of convenience. Armed with a stolen copy of Blade’s secret—and disgustingly traditional—list of what he really wants in a wife, Harriet is determined to make Blade forget every point on his list and replace it with love.

  I wanted to keep Quintessa close to me because she’s special. She’s a girl from my past that grew up into an amazing, beautiful brilliant woman. I want to make her mine, but she doesn’t trust me fully because she doesn’t know who I am. 
  Therefore, the time has come to reveal my true identity before she finds out on her own, but things don’t always go as planned, does it? I know that firsthand. If life went by a plan, Quintessa would’ve been mine years ago. We would’ve been together. We would’ve been living our happily ever after. 
  But we’re not. We’re lagging behind. Playing catchup. Reminiscing… 
  I can’t risk losing her again after putting forth all this effort to ensure we found each other again. But who’s to say that won’t happen anyway, especially when I struggle with my own identity? When I fear that the person I’ve become is not a man she could love? 
  This is the conclusion to the DePaul & Company Series!

  A homeless man, who's struggling to survive a freezing, rainy night in the desert, recalls what his grandfather had struggled to survive during World War II. He relives how his connection to it upended his own life. 
  Hermann Weiss was the best police detective in Prague’s Jewish district of Josefov. But when the Nazis occupy the city and deport its Jews, he finds himself in Theresienstadt concentration camp, waiting his turn to die. 
  One night, he receives a visit from an SS captain named Klaus Stamm, who’d been his friend in college before their falling out over Hermann’s future wife Ana. Klaus offers Hermann his freedom if he can discover who murdered three SS officers found near synagogues in Josefov. He threatens to shoot him if he refuses. 
  Hermann wants to refuse the offer. Still reeling from the recent loss of Ana, he yearns for death. He only agrees to help because of a promise that he’d made to her. 
  But as he delves into the case, he senses that it’s leading him somewhere. He becomes driven to solve it. The two men, in spite of decades-old tensions threatening to boil over, uncover the pursuit of an object hidden beneath the ancient synagogues. Which hurls them toward both the killer and Hermann’s fate. 
  A thriller that blends memoir, historical fiction, mystery, and magic realism, Last Jew in Prague is about lifting yourself up when all you want to do is keep falling.
