  A mesmerizing historical novel of Renaissance Europe. 
  1459, Island of Rhodes, Greece. No one suspects Anica Foscolo is responsible for her Venetian father's exquisite portraits, least of all her wealthy fiancé. But her father's vision is failing, and with every passing day it's more difficult to conceal the truth. 
  When a powerful knight of the Order of St. John threatens to reveal all, Anica must act quickly to salvage her father's honor and her own future. Desperate, she enlists the help of a fierce Scottish privateer named Drummond Fordun. Together, they craft a daring plan to restore her father's sight. 
  There's only one problem: she never imagined falling in love with her accomplice. 
  Before their plan can unfold, a shocking scandal involving the knights puts Anica's entire family at risk. Her only hope is to turn to Drummond once again, defying her parents, her betrothed, even the Grand Master of the Knights himself. But can she survive the consequences? 
  With this captivating tale of passion, courage, and loyalty, Amy Maroney brings a lost, dazzling world to vivid life. 
  Sea of Shadows is part of an award-winning series of stand-alone historical novels packed with adventure and romance. 
  "Stunning. A compelling tale of love, honor, and conviction." —Reader's Favorite 5-Star Review 
  "Maroney does an excellent job of bringing 15th century Rhodes to life. Highly recommended."—Historical Novel Society

  The guy who broke my heart is back and teaching at my school. I'm really trying not to give an F. 
   
   
   
  A long time ago, in a suburban high school not so far away, a closeted nerd (me) and a closeted soccer star (Hutch) fell in love and planned to make their public debut at prom. Until Hutch bailed at the last minute, leaving me with a broken heart and unworn tuxedo. Tale as old as time, right? 
   
   
   
  I spent the past ten years working to forget Hutch, returning to our old high school to teach and make new memories that could erase ones of him. I thought Hutch was ancient history, off living his professional athlete life. But he's suddenly back in Sourwood, coaching soccer at South Rock High, and sexy as ever. Just when I'd gotten over him, we're now colleagues. 
   
   
   
  As Hutch leads the soccer team to victory once again, and we find ourselves trading stolen glances in the halls, it feels like a reboot of our high school bad romance. Especially after a late night encounter where I find myself climbing him like the rope in gym class. Oops. 
   
   
   
  Hutch wants to give us another try, but what if history is doomed to repeat itself? 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Her life wasn’t all bad until she woke up a vampire. 
  Sabrina raised a daughter, started her own coffee shop, and bought her dream house in her hometown of New Orleans. If she had to complain about anything, it would be the seventh level of Hell hot flashes that come with being 53 years old. That is, until she wakes up a vampire. 
  Her body has never been more perky and her hair is a dream. Problems? Several. A vampire shouldn’t have hot flashes, mood swings that rival a rollercoaster ride, and the urge to drop into a dead sleep at 9:00 pm. 
  There is a God and he goes by the name of Christoph, the king of the New Orleans coven and a vampire who is hotter than her night sweats. Ready to jump his ancient bones, she manages self control. Barely. When she learns he can cure more than her animalistic urges, she will promise anything. 
  Enter the misfits. A succubus kicked out of Hell, an old as dirt reaper, a purple dragon whose hiccups light eyebrows on fire, and a cute as can be pooch that’s really a Hellhound. All occupants of the B&B, Fangri-La and Sabrina’s job is to turn Christoph’s new acquisition into a thriving business. Holy hot flashes, she may have sunk her fangs into more than she can handle.

  Prolific New York Times bestselling author Lynn Cahoon pens a new episode in the Tuesday Night Survivors Club Mystery series set in a cozy bookstore café in Sedona, Arizona. 
   
   
   
  Rarity is grateful for many things and people in her new life, including her friend Shirley, who is helping to provide backpacks and supplies for kids going back to school. But Shirley needs a big favor. With her husband in a memory-care home, she wants to attend an art opening with a male friend but fears local gossip. She asks Rarity, her friend Sam, and their boyfriends to come along as cover. It would be fun if not for the fact that the two couples are barely speaking . . . 
   
   
    
  The evening proceeds without any social disasters. But the featured artist—who struck Rarity as more of a spoiled playboy—is later found dead with an arrow in his back. Any lingering tensions must be set aside so the amateur sleuths can find an archer who may have taken the idea of pointed criticism a bit too literally . . .
