  Knockabout Australian Keeley McGee is living her childhood dream of playing soccer at the World Cup. The only thing that could kill her focus is coming up against the cool and dispassionate US team's star striker. 
   
   
   
  Beautiful, brilliant Christine Delacourt was the college girlfriend who dumped Keeley out of the blue years before. 
   
   
   
  What will it be like reuniting under the stadium lights, especially since they know the other's game—and each other—so intimately? 
   
   
   
  Despite a strict "no distractions" rule from her coach, Keeley finds herself drawn to Christine in a way that feels almost dangerous. Will Keeley be able to rekindle what she once shared with her now on-field enemy with the eyes of the world on them? Dare she even try?

  I've pissed off both the goddess of magic and the king of hell himself. 
  Heaven help me. 
    
  Absolutely nothing about this adventure has gone to plan, and Hecate isn't at all what I expected her to be. Learning that our kind, benevolent goddess is neither kind nor benevolent feels like finding out Santa Claus isn't real, and I am so not here for this. 
    
  I'm literally not here for it, because the final member of the hunting party has whisked me away to Hecate knows where (I really hope she knows) and separated me from the demon I love. 
    
  My sisters will be summoning Discord to the earthly realm soon, and if I don't get back to him before they do, I won't just lose him forever. I'll become Hell's newest permanent resident. 
    
  Read the thrilling conclusion to the Fire Witches of Salem series now!

The Duke is determined to find out how she has been so cruelly misled. And along the way he finds the love that he has always dreamt of finding – but not before the spectre of death steps into his path.

  What's worse than an angry-middle-aged woman? 
  A whole club of them. 
  Everyone around 55-year-old Nell is absolutely infuriating. Her new boss is a sexist pr*ck, her clients can be selfish tw*ts, and the general public? They can p*ss right off! 
  But when Nell loses it at a children’s party entertainer (who definitely deserved it) her family send her to a rage room. Nell finds herself stood there with a baseball bat, being instructed to break as many things as possible by an annoyingly handsome man called Glen… 
  Still, as fun as it is to smash stuff, Nell finds it doesn’t quite hit the spot. Inspired, she starts a new space for herself and the women at work: Rent-A-Rant, a place just for them, to speak their minds, no holds-barred, and to finally be heard. Oh, and to eat loads of biscuits. 
  All these women have a lot to be mad about. But could it be that, instead of getting rid of their fury, they could channel it for good? With Rent-A-Rant’s help, Nell isn’t going to let everything fall apart — she’s going to smash it up. 
  This hilarious and relatable coming-of-middle-rage novel from Harper Ford fights back at bullies and bastards one menopausal rant at a time — the perfect read for fans of Alexandra Potter, Jane Fallon, and Riot Women. 
  For fans of Alexandra Potter (More Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up), Victoria Christopher Murray (Envy), Marie Benedict (The First Ladies), Jane Fallon (Getting Rid of Matthew), and Emily Henry (Beach Read).

  Amory Blaine grew up in a wealthy family and was given an Ivy League education. Without a need to learn a profession, he chiefly dabbled in literature and partying. His school chums were of similar background, and the ideas they reflected to each other grew in their minds to be of the greatest importance. Amory began to think of himself as somewhat of a character in a Rupert Brooke poem (from which the book's title is taken).World War I intervened in this happy fog and brought focus to some, doubt to others.In the rapidly changing technology of the war era, the financial underpinnings of the Blaine fortune began to fall apart. The deaths of Amory's parents left the finances without a rudder and as Amory's situation deteriorated he came to realize he had only his interest in literature to fall back upon.Meanwhile, a series of young women traipsed through his life, attracted to his handsome face and bright wit like moths to a candle. But Amory could never master the role of being a real person... and, one by one, they traipsed out.This Side of Paradise was F. Scott Fitzgerald's first novel and was one of the nation's most popular books in the year it was published. It has some definite parallels with Fitzgerald's own life, and is in some ways an autobiography. Summary by Mark F. Smith)
