    Hannah Rowen has always wanted to visit Italy, so when she’s sent there by the Metropolitan Museum of Art to purchase a rare red diamond necklace, it’s a dream come true for the curator. 
However, after she becomes entwined in an ancient vampire legend surrounding the beautiful necklace—known as the Jewel of Isis—she soon wishes they had sent someone else.
Armand was cursed into the mountains more than four hundred years ago by the goddess Isis, but thanks to an avalanche, he’s now free to roam the earth once more. He sets out to hunt down and kill the new guardian of the necklace that entombed him, but he becomes captivated with her instead; however, so has Valentino Aleron, who is a descendant of Egyptian vampire hunters.
On her trip to Venice, Hannah learns not all legends are fiction, and dreams can bring seduction. In a fight to stay alive and avoid becoming Armand’s immortal bride, she must trust Val and his family.

    The K’Terrian Affair is an uplifting but emotional love story about the first-ever human/alien love affair.
 
Alex Tucker’s mother abandoned him when he was nine-years-old. Twenty years later, she’s a major with the U.S. Army overseeing a high security post on Dune Island, a remote community in the middle of Lake Michigan. So, Alex leaves a promising career at the FBI to become Chief of Police on Dune Island and, hopefully, get to know her.
 
Once there, he meets and is attracted to the mysterious Eleanor Engle. She and her father are scientists that do research for the army. But as their relationship develops, Alex discovers the Engles are really the last two surviving members of Earth’s first alien delegation from another planet. A delegation his mother is sworn to protect.
 
When it’s discovered an organization called the Consortium is out to kidnap the Engles for their advanced technology, things quickly escalate to a heart-pounding climax. The K’Terrian Affair is, like all Timothy Best novels, deep romance and high adventure rolled into one unforgettable story.

In the Hugo-award winning, epic New York Times Bestseller and basis for the BBC miniseries, two men change England's history when they bring magic back into the world.

Another practicing magician then emerges: the young and daring Jonathan Strange. He becomes Norrell's pupil, and the two join forces in the war against France.  
 
But Strange is increasingly drawn to the wild, most perilous forms of magic, and he soon risks sacrificing his partnership with Norrell and everything else he holds dear.  
 
Susanna Clarke's brilliant first novel is an utterly compelling epic tale of nineteenth-century England and the two magicians who, first as teacher and pupil and then as rivals, emerge to change its history.
