    Being abducted by aliens was the best thing to ever happen to Carla. 
    She was failing at being an adult: no job, no love life, and on the brink of eviction. But her luck changed the night the aliens snatched her. 
    Now she’s on an outlaw planet filled with the worst people the universe has to offer. Is it tough? Absolutely, but Carla isn’t merely surviving. She’s thriving. 
    She has a nice little con going. While she plays the weak and frightened human, her partner in crime robs the marks. Simple. Easy. Profitable. 
    Until that gargoyle got involved. 
    Ari fancies himself some type of do-gooder, swooping in to rescue her when she’s doing just fine, thanks. So what if he’s charming and good looking for a guy with skin that can turn to stone? Not to mention the pair of wings he’s sporting or the crown of horns that makes her wonder what it’d be like to grab, yank him down to look him right in the eyes and kiss him… 
    Nope. She’s not attracted to him. Be quiet. 
    One wrong roll of the dice and a job goes wrong. Now she’s stuck with the infuriatingly cocky gargoyle. If this rock-headed alien thinks she’ll make this easy, well, his luck just ran out. 
    Alien's Luck is a stand alone adventure in on an outlaw planet with an HEA and no cheating.

    Mia Thermopolis knows just what to do in a crisis: Rule. 
    During the Covid-19 pandemic, a section of the diary of Princess Mia Thermopolis of Genovia fell into the hands of Meg Cabot, the Princess’s royal biographer. 
    As reported in media outlets such as Entertainment Weekly, The Mary Sue, Refinery 29, Bustle, and more, from March until June of 2020, sixteen entries of the princess’s diary were leaked onto Ms. Cabot’s blog, to the delight of over a million fans. 
    In these entries, titled The Coronavirus Princess Diaries, the princess recorded her most heartfelt emotions while dealing with her husband’s quarantine after exposure to the virus; her personal (and political) battles while imposing health restrictions on her small European nation; life during lockdown (even in as idyllic a location as a palace on the Riviera); and of course, dealing with her demanding royal family, especially her grandmother. 
    Since then, readers have been clamoring for more chapters of Mia’s coronavirus diary . . . and here they are at last: The Quarantine Princess Diaries include not only the previously released entries (now edited and updated with new content), but two hundred more pages of entirely original, never-before-seen entries, including the princess’s worries over a possible royal affair; a showdown between Mia and Grandmère over the latter’s intended nuptials; the eventual development and distribution of a groundbreaking intranasal vaccine for every citizen in Genovia; and, as always, a royally happy ending. 
    After all we’ve been through, what could be more comforting for any lover of royal romance than snuggling up with a brand new installment of the diary of Mia Thermopolis, the princess who started it all?

    Crown Prince Ryu has been trained since childhood for the role of king, instilled with the responsibilities of ruling and the traditions of generations of his forefathers. Honour dictates that he must marry his soulmate – the one person in the world with a soul mark that is an exact match to his own – and it’s almost certain that his match will be a noble omega woman. There’s just one problem; Ryu is already in love with someone else. 
     
    Kentario Amagarda is Ryu’s bodyguard, the eldest son of a revered noble family, and an alpha, like himself. And as such, he is an entirely unsuitable match for the young prince. Not only that, but growing unrest as the civilian population pushes for democracy and a civil war threatening Galandeen’s southern border mean this is the worst possible time for Ryu to be breaking tradition to marry the man he loves. 
     
    But as a web of lies and deceit within the palace begins to unravel, Kentario is all that stands between Ryu and the multitude of threats closing in from all sides. And as the future of the entire nation is put at risk, Ryu faces an impossible choice; his country or his heart. 
     
    This book can be read as a standalone, however Ryu and Kentario's story continues in Book 2: Confusion.

    When schoolgirl Janey Macklin disappeared from the seedy side of London in 1988, her case went cold, with no body and no witnesses. Now, thirty years later, private detective Kate Marshall has been approached by a true crime podcast producer with an intriguing question they need her help answering: What if Janey was killed by Peter Conway, the notorious Nine Elms Cannibal? 
    The contract would be the most lucrative of Kate’s career, but it comes with a price of its own, dredging up a sordid, complicated past that she would sooner forget . . . one that the paparazzi are determined to keep in the headlines. 
    As Kate and her partner, Tristan, scour King’s Cross for clues, no two leads seem to point in the same direction. The last person to see Janey alive has already been tried, convicted, and then acquitted of her murder, Peter Conway is in poor health and fading fast, and the line between their clients and their suspects is blurring with each new revelation about the case. 
    With little to work from, can Tristan and Kate wade through clandestine phone calls, decades-old secrets, and deteriorating DNA evidence to solve Janey’s murder, or will she remain one of London’s countless missing persons, forever lost to time? 
    A brilliantly gripping thriller from the global multi-million-copy bestselling author, The Lost Victim will have you hooked from the first page and holding your breath all the way to the heart-stopping ending. 
    Can be enjoyed as a standalone listen. 
    ‘Gripping, suspenseful, and twisty. Proves yet again that you simply can't go wrong with a Robert Bryndza book! He is one author I never need to read the synopsis - I just grab it!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kelly Y, Netgalley Reviewer

    A stranger's desperate plea in a shadowed bar pulls me into the enigma of Axton Crescent, where relentless tales of ghostly chaos plague a collector's opulent estate. Despite our meticulous investigations yielding no trace of the supernatural, the staff's fervent claims and the allure of the master's exotic relics prompt me to call on Gwen Honeycutt's keen insight to unravel the truth. 
    The burden of truth cuts deeper still, as my own honesty about past indiscretions shatters my engagement, while my friend's growing despair casts a pall over our efforts. 
    This is the eleventh book of the Paranormology Series.
