  No groom? No Problem. 
   
   
   
  When her fiancé tries to turn their wedding into a publicity stunt, Jenna ditches the nuptials—and the groom she shouldn't have been with in the first place—and skips straight to the honeymoon. The getaway driver, her ex-fiancé's former business partner, Zach, is the perfect guy to help reshape her romantic newlywed itinerary into an anti-couple, anti-romance, anti-honeymoon adventure for two. 
   
   
   
  They trade couples yoga for kickboxing lessons. Five-star dining on the beach for pizza and beer at a dive bar. Forget couples massage—Jenna's getting that tattoo she's always wanted, and dares Zach to get one, too. And those naughty boudoir pics she took in place of romantic sunset snaps? Those aren't going in anyone's wedding album. Not that Zach will forget them anytime soon. 
   
   
   
  As each item on Jenna's anti-couples list is checked off, the anti-honeymoon with Zach feels more and more like the real thing, and she wishes the list was just a little bit longer . . . and even steamier. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Shanghai 1927. Pearl of the East or Whore of the Orient? Depends on who you ask. It's a cesspool of poverty, thronged with refugees, gripped by civil war. But for some it's still a fever dream: jazz clubs, film stars, and opium dens, celebrities and spies, easy money and easier women. 
   
   
   
  The son of a rural Irish cop, Michael Gallagher has joined the Shanghai Municipal Police to escape an Ireland crippled by its recent bitter independence fight and escape a personal tragedy. 
   
   
   
  Michael encounters Shanghai's biggest philanthropist, a man called Big Ears Lu—who is also its creepiest racketeer. He falls for the beautiful courtesan Miriam Tsai. 
   
   
   
  But does Michael's collusion with Lu keep Miriam trapped in the House of Multiple Joys? 
   
   
   
  Shanghai in 1927 is a city where after dark anything seems possible. A city where anyone can be crushed, and anyone corrupted. Even an innocent Irish cop. 
   
   
   
  From the wreckage of guerrilla war in Ireland to the dawn of world war in Asia, Gangsters of Shanghai seethes with twentieth century turbulence and temptation. 
   
   
   
  Can Mike Gallagher remain uncorrupted, and escape the imploding city with his life and his self-respect?

  A rosary in one hand. A dagger in the other. Sister Magdalena never heard of the Catherinite nuns until the day she faced her own death sentence. Rome, 1562. It’s the era of the Index of Banned Books and the Roman Inquisition. Kings still burn heretics. The worst threats come from within the Church itself. Only seventeen, Magdalena killed a priest who tried to rape her within the walls of her convent. His powerful family will see her executed, and then they’ll destroy her mother and young sister. Instead, the pope makes an offer. To save her life and protect her family, Magdalena can disappear into a secret religious order, one with a demanding physical regimen to go along with the prayers. She’ll pray the psalms and learn to climb walls. She’ll sharpen her mind and fine-tune her body. Perfected, she’ll infiltrate the Council of Trent. Magdalena’s order slips through cathedrals and palaces at the council, the Pope’s silent operatives. They act as bodyguards for the cardinals. They gather intelligence. If they find heresy, the penalty is death. But when one of the pope’s own men is named a heretic, Magdalena must decide how far she’ll go to protect her church.

  🎭 Jester Lyra hides a dangerous secret: her comedy masks her true identity as the last heir to a fallen magical house. Using laughter as her shield and wit as her weapon, she moves through the royal court gathering intelligence for the rebellion. Her main target is the Crown's ruthless spymaster, Kaelen, whose piercing eyes see through every deception—except her carefully crafted persona. When Lyra uncovers a plot to assassinate the king using forbidden magic, she must risk everything by revealing her truth to the very man sworn to destroy her kind. Forced into an uneasy alliance, they navigate a deadly dance of courtly intrigue where every joke holds a coded message and every laugh could be their last. As their pretend flirtation ignites into genuine passion, Lyra discovers Kaelen has secrets of his own—including a hidden loyalty that could save her people or destroy them both. In a court where truth is the most dangerous jest of all, two enemies must learn to trust before the final curtain falls on their kingdom.
