  In the bustling port town of Fowey, young Edgar Barbosa had everything he could ask for: a loving family, a stable life, and dreams of one day exploring the open seas. He longed for adventure, but he thought he had time—to prepare, to grow, to choose his path. When a pirate attack shatters his peaceful world, Edgar is thrust into a life he isn’t ready for. Raised aboard a merchant ship, he hones his skills as a sailor. But the darker sides of the Navy’s practices—its greed, cruelty, and chains—soon reveal themselves. Disillusioned, Edgar takes a stand to break those chains and reclaim freedom. Stranded and without a ship, Edgar and his closest friends find refuge among privateers fighting for liberation. It’s a path that forces him to grapple with the irony of his new identity: a pirate seeking justice, a rebel yearning for peace. In a world where loyalty is fragile and morality shifts like the tides, Edgar must decide how much of himself he’s willing to sacrifice to claim the life he deserves. Becoming Barbosa is a sweeping tale of resilience, rebellion, and the making of a legend. Perfect for readers who crave the grit of revolution, the allure of freedom, and the courage to challenge the tides of fate.

  Books, magic, and a cat with character! 
  Travel to Charing Cross Road in London and join sales assistant Jemma, bookshop owner Raphael and Folio the cat in three spellbinding cozy mysteries. 
   
  Every Trick In The Book 
  When Jemma James takes a job at Burns Books, the second-worst secondhand bookshop in London, she finds her ambition to turn it around thwarted at every step. Raphael, the owner, is more interested in his newspaper than sales. Folio the bookshop cat has it in for Jemma, and the shop itself appears to have a mind of its own. Or is it more than that? 
   
  Gradually Jemma starts to make a difference ... and then the anonymous letters start arriving. Who is behind them, and why? 
   
  Brought to Book 
  Business is booming at Burns Books — so much so that Jemma and Raphael hire a new assistant. And that’s when things start to go wrong. 
   
  Luke’s helpful, he’s knowledgeable, and the customers like him. So why is the shop up to its old tricks, and a few new ones? 
   
  Jemma and Carl take it upon themselves to investigate, and end up finding out a lot more than they bargained for. Will working at the bookshop ever be the same again? 
   
  Double Booked 
  Jemma’s dream of running her own bookshop is becoming a nightmare. She has plenty of ideas, but her assistant Maddy is resistant to change. Come to that, so are the customers. 
   
  To distract herself, Jemma gets involved in Raphael’s attempt to recruit a new member of staff — but that doesn’t go entirely to plan either, as his wider team turns against him. 
   
  Can Jemma and Raphael work out what’s going on and get their lives back to normal before they run out of time?

  An uplifting and heartwarming romantic read from RNA Award Winning Maxine Morrey.Lizzie Rose knows what she likes and likes what she knows. 
  Her role at the London Museum is more than a job, it’s her safe place and her passion. So when Lizzie is passed over for a chance in a lifetime opportunity in favour of her ex-boyfriend and fellow Egypt nerd Friedrich Klein, her heartbreak over their relationship pales into insignificance compared to her sadness at losing the project. 
  Best friend Colette thinks an evening of cocktails is just the medicine for a broken heart, and meeting dashing, charming, but very much ‘not her type’ Finn Bryson at the bar puts a smile on Lizzie’s face too. But Lizzie isn’t used to spending time outside of her comfortable world of academia and doesn’t believe in mixing business with pleasure. So when Finn’s job brings him to the museum, she’s determined to put an end to any notion of romance between them. 
  But what if Lizzie’s comfort zone isn’t that comfortable any more? Is it time for Lizzie to take the chance on love that fate keeps bringing her way - even if it means changing the habits of a lifetime?
