  A ghost and an exorcist make an unlikely pair. But from the moment Maggie Hathorn tumbled into Reverend Coronado, it was love at first possession…  
  In 1899 Manhattan, the impending turn of the century has put both the living and the dead on edge. As the spirit of a socialite who has haunted the city streets for longer than she walked them, Maggie now spends her afterlife helping to solve crimes for New York City’s Ghost Precinct. When Coronado gets roped into investigating a murder at a nearby church, Maggie jumps at the opportunity to flex her sleuthing skills and spend more time with the distressingly handsome reverend. But as familiar with death as Maggie is, she is not prepared for the gruesome sight of the crime scene. A beautiful bride lies in a pool of blood beside her beloved, in a scene that reminds Maggie of her own final moments. Maggie can’t even look at the bride’s ghost without being thrust into traumatic memories and losing her grip on the living world. The last thing Maggie wants is to lose this spectral second chance at life that she’s been given. But how can she help this dead bride without endangering her own spirit? Maggie will have to draw on her strongest bonds and connections to keep herself tethered while she confronts her own mortality. It’s a good thing Reverend Coronado is there by her side. No one else has ever made her feel so alive. 
  Spend more time with some familiar characters from Leanna Renee Hieber’s The Spectral City in this first book in fresh, new series.

  Pan and Noah's story continues... 
  For every problem Pan solves, he makes three more, but accidentally turning Noah–his only connection to magic and the man who has been helping him–into a selkie might be the worst. Now he needs to earn Noah’s trust, and Pan has no idea where to start. He’s a god; people are supposed to beg him for forgiveness and aid. 
  Then a group of drak start following him around, thinking that he’ll be able to help them recover their ability to breathe fire. The last thing anyone needs is shapeshifting fire-breathing cats. But when they offer their prayers, Pan can’t refuse. 
  Noah should have realized he couldn’t trust a word that fell off Pan’s tongue before kissing him. Now, he kind of needs him because there are no other living selkies, and he doesn’t know what to do. Not that he even wants to be a selkie, but the coat is now his, and only his. As much as he wants to run away from all of this, the mythos aren’t going anywhere, and helping Pan gives him something to do. 
  The trouble is, the more he is around the powerless god, the easier it becomes to forgive him because he really is trying to help his people, even if it is only so they will worship him again. At least this time, Noah understands Pan only cares about himself. 
  Or at least he thought he understood…

  You can't orchestrate true love…can you?  
  Spellmaster Geraldine Hartford has everything she could want — a successful spell shop and close friends and family — but she's still waiting on her own swoon-worthy romance. Her friends think their matchmaking efforts are helping, but it's the tall, handsome stranger in town who immediately catches Gerry's eye.  
  Basil Thorne's life has turned upside down. After his father's death, he's found himself uprooted from Bath to become the head of a family he barely knows. Overwhelmed by responsibilities, not to mention the clamor of Tutting-on-Cress locals wishing to befriend him — only the lovely spellmaster with a twinkling smile seems to soothe Basil's heart. 
  And he's not the only one who's noticed… 
  Soon it seems as though everyone in Gerry and Basil's lives is determined to match them up. But Gerry is waiting for the surefire spark of romance and Basil is waiting until his life settles down.  
  They may be perfect for each other, but it will take some meddling — and a bit of magic — to bring them together. 
  This book is the fifth installment in the series Meddle & Mend. It can be read after Dear Bartleby or as a standalone.

  Issa Rae’s Insecure with a magical realist spin: an exhilarating exploration of diasporic community and ancestral ties, and an homage to Jamaican storytelling by one of the most invigorating voices in today’s literature. 
   
  Alicia has been out of grad school for months. She has no career prospects and lives with her mom, who won’t stop texting her macabre news stories and reminders to pick up items from the grocery store. Then, one evening, the Jamaican water deity River Mumma appears to Alicia, telling her that she has twenty-four hours to scour the city for her missing comb. 
   
  Alicia doesn’t understand why River Mumma would choose her. She can’t remember all the legends her relatives told her, unlike her retail coworker Heaven, who can reel off Jamaican folklore by heart. She doesn’t know if her childhood visions have returned, or why she feels a strange connection to her other coworker Mars. But when the trio is chased down by malevolent spirits, they realize their tenuous bonds to each other may be their only lifelines. With the clock ticking, Alicia’s quest through the city broadens into a journey through time—to find herself and what the river carries. 
   
  “A love letter to culture, home, and coming of age—and will spark important, relevant book club conversations, too. What a ride! I loved every moment.”—Marissa Stapley, New York Times bestselling author of Lucky
