  For listeners who gravitate towards the chilling foresight of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and the oppressive state control of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four—prepare for a gripping new voice in dystopian fiction. 
  In a near-future America where an iron-fisted theocracy weaponizes faith, Calvin has spent decades burying his true self, meticulously conforming to a system that demands absolute obedience. But when a profound, devastating encounter shatters his carefully constructed world, this disgraced former minister finds his authentic calling through an unexpected act of rebellion. 
  Cast out and facing ruthless persecution, Calvin witnesses an act of shocking state-sanctioned violence that shatters his apathy. As the propaganda screams louder and the lines between divine truth and tyranny blur, he must choose: remain a victim of a system he despises, or become an unlikely rebel against the very institution he once believed in. 
  Dive into Apostate, the gripping first installment in a dystopian series where a man's broken faith becomes the spark of a resistance, and the fight for true freedom begins with a courageous stand against an unholy empire.

  When my dad called to lecture me about how it’s time to settle down, quit partying, and get a job that will actually prepare me for life after college, I agreed. Mostly.After spring break, I’ll buckle down and be ready to work, but until then, I’m getting my fill of fun. Which is why when I spot an attractive man sitting alone at a bar, I approach him with the hopes of being able to tempt him into a night full of pleasure. After all, being with an older guy is just about the only thing I haven’t done.When I wake up in his bed with a note that makes it clear he doesn’t intend on seeing me again, I take it in stride. But when I show up to the job my dad set up for me, it turns out my new boss, Aleksander Drakos, is the guy who thought he’d be done with me after a one-night stand. On top of that, apparently he’s a friend of my dad’s. Trying to remain professional is pointless. Working with him day after day is just too tempting to not have another taste.

  Inheritance

  A Poetry Book Society Recommendation
  Inheritance is a profoundly moving exploration of what is passed down by our forebearers, what is left behind when we lose someone, and what we learn from being loved. Jasmine Cooray holds our most fiercely-guarded myths to the light, refracted through second-generation diaspora, family legend and life-changing loss. Her poems embrace both the quiet and the storms within. They sing of self-belief rising to the surface as drowning feels imminent, of desire and how it can cultivate hope. This is a timeless debut: wise, wild and empowering, a lodestar for survival.
  "A strident, playful language dance through life's more challenging parts, always towards something transcendent." Anthony Joseph, Sonnets for Albert, Winner of the 2022 T.S. Eliot Prize
  "Intimate, vulnerable, poignant and provocative. Inheritance is a stunning debut brimming with tenderness, authenticity and heart."  Salena Godden, Mrs Death Misses Death

  Toby thinks he's irritating. I think he's a breath of fresh air. 
   
   
   
  Toby's family has made sure he knows what a screw-up he is at every turn. Too fidgety, too touchy, just too much. He's given up hope of finding what he wants in search of the only kind of Daddy he thinks will be able to tolerate him, a patient one.

  Will he be able to convince the younger man how brave he is facing the world as his true self regardless of the negative voices in his head telling him he's broken? 
   
   
   
  Welcome back to The Tap Tavern where there's booty-shaking in the kitchen, cuddling on the couch, and sometimes a boy just needs a little help to get out of his head. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Peregrine Hind, known to all as the bloodiest highwayman ever to bedevil the road, seeks only one thing—revenge against the Dartham family. 
  And so when a robbery sends the second Dartham son and notorious rakehell Alexander Dartham tumbling to Peregrine’s feet, it seems like fate has given Peregrine his vengeance at last. Except then Alexander offers him a desperate bargain: to kidnap him instead, so Peregrine can harvest a generous ransom from Alexander’s family first. 
  Peregrine agrees, but he’s in no way prepared for a captive like Alexander, who insists only on the softest beds and the finest wines…and who enjoys being tied up a little too much…

  The first time Dimitri Castallanos experienced obsession, he committed a felony. He was five. Dimitri is a psychopath. And he’s still obsessed with just one person. 
  Arlo Miller was born a victim, raised as his father’s punching bag and his mother’s scapegoat. Dimitri was his only protection, and they took him away. 
  As children, they clung to each other. As adults, they pretend neither remembers, while both harbor secret crushes on the other. Dimitri hides his feelings behind a mask of indifference. Arlo hides his by falling for very bad men. 
  When one of those men confronts Dimitri, this time it's Arlo who commits a felony. Murder. But Dimitri won’t allow Arlo to take the fall. With the help of Dimitri’s mother and seven psychopaths, they now have twenty-four hours to fake an alibi, hide a body, and confess their true feelings for each other, once and for all. 
  Which is harder? Falling in love or getting away with murder?
