Spot A Leopard

Beschreibung

Agreeing to become Kisten’s mate was only the first step for Raiven. Even though she’s excited to move forward in her future by the Alpha’s side, other worries plague the Immortal’s mind.
 
It seems that she and Kisten still cannot reconcile their differences, but she hopes that with the Oath gone, they may be able to work through their issues. Their plans are halted, however, when the Hunter Whistleblower comes to the Americas in search of LeAlexende. He claims to be Kisten’s long-lost father, and Raiven is forced to use her dormant necromancy to keep him from stealing her mate.
 
Doing so causes her to learn that her power is not what she thought it was, and that it could be more dangerous than the Hunter himself. As they race against the clock to destroy this new threat, will their differences bring them closer together, or push them apart?

Casey's Journey - The Legacy Series

C.J. Wilson

Set in a dystopian future where the Crumpt dynasty has transformed the U.S. presidency into a hereditary rule, this gripping sci-fi saga follows the struggle for truth, survival, and legacy in a world divided by power and deception. Under the authoritarian grip of Crumpt Jr., the elite Calberras have fortified their dominance, creating walled cities that separate the privileged from the struggling masses. 
At the heart of the story is Casey, a young scientist navigating a society shaped by scarcity, rigid policies, and concealed truths. Her family’s legacy in scientific innovation—especially in anti-aging and late-life pregnancy—becomes both a burden and a key to the future. Her great-grandmother, Martha, famously gave birth at 80 in 1913 after developing a groundbreaking anti-aging formula, a discovery that now holds dangerous implications. As Casey works within a government-controlled lab, she begins to uncover secrets that could reshape society—or bring about her downfall. 
Blending science fiction, family legacy, and societal commentary, the series delves into themes of loyalty, deception, and survival in a world teetering on the edge of transformation.

Lady Osbaldestone’s Christmas...

Stephanie Laurens

Three years after being widowed, Lady Therese Osbaldestone finally settles into her dower property of Hartington Manor in the village of Little Moseley in Hampshire. She is in two minds as to whether life in the small village will generate sufficient interest to keep her amused over the months when she is not in London or visiting friends around the country. But she will see.
It’s December, 1810, and Therese is looking forward to her usual Christmas with her family at Winslow Abbey, her youngest daughter, Celia’s home. But then a carriage rolls up and disgorges Celia’s three oldest children. Their father has contracted mumps, and their mother has sent the three—Jamie, George, and Lottie—to spend this Christmas with their grandmama in Little Moseley.
Therese has never had to manage small children, not even her own. She assumes the children will keep themselves amused, but quickly learns that what amuses three inquisitive, curious, and confident youngsters isn’t compatible with village peace. Just when it seems she will have to set her mind to inventing something, she and the children learn that with only twelve days to go before Christmas, the village flock of geese has vanished.
Every household in the village is now missing the centerpiece of their Christmas feast. But how could an entire flock go missing without the slightest trace? The children are as mystified and as curious as Therese—and she seizes on the mystery as the perfect distraction for the three children as well as herself.
But while searching for the geese, she and her three helpers stumble on two locals who, it is clear, are in dire need of assistance in sorting out their lives. Never one to shy from a little matchmaking, Therese undertakes to guide Miss Eugenia Fitzgibbon into the arms of the determinedly reclusive Lord Longfellow. To her considerable surprise, she discovers that her grandchildren have inherited skills and talents from both her late husband as well as herself. And with all the customary village events held in the lead up to Christmas, she and her three helpers have opportunities galore in which to subtly nudge and steer.
Yet while their matchmaking appears to be succeeding, neither they nor anyone else have found so much as a feather from the village’s geese. Larceny is ruled out; a flock of that size could not have been taken from the area without someone noticing. So where could the birds be? And with the days passing and Christmas inexorably approaching, will they find the blasted birds in time?
