Iron Flame

Rebecca Yarros

Tutti si aspettavano che Violet Sorrengail morisse durante il suo primo anno all’accademia militare di Basgiath, compresa lei stessa. Ma la Trebbiatura è stata solo la prima, difficilissima prova per eliminare i candidati più insicuri, indegni e sfortunati. Ora inizia l’addestramento vero e proprio, e Violet già si chiede come farà a superarlo. Perché non sarà soltanto terribilmente estenuante, brutale e progettato per testare la capacità dei cavalieri di resistere al dolore oltre ogni limite. Il vero pericolo è il nuovo vicecomandante, che ha deciso di dimostrare a ogni costo quanto la ragazza sia inadatta al posto che si è guadagnata a fatica, a meno che non tradisca l’uomo che ama. Forse il corpo di Violet è più debole di quello degli altri, ma di certo non le mancano né l’ingegno, né una volontà di ferro. E soprattutto, il vicecomandante non tiene conto della lezione più importante di Basgiath: i cavalieri di draghi si fanno le regole da soli. Ma la determinazione a sopravvivere non sarà sufficiente quest’anno. Perché Violet conosce il vero segreto nascosto da secoli all’accademia militare di Basgiath e niente, nemmeno il fuoco dei draghi, potrebbe essere sufficiente a salvarli.

Bride

Ali Azelwood

Misery Lark, l’unica figlia del più potente Consigliere dei Vampiri del Sud-ovest, è ancora una volta un’emarginata. I suoi giorni nell’anonimato tra gli Umani sono finiti: è stata chiamata a sostenere una storica alleanza per mantenere la pace tra i Vampiri e i loro più acerrimi nemici, i Lupi, e non vede altra scelta che arrendersi allo scambio.
I Lupi sono spietati e imprevedibili e il loro capo, Lowe Moreland, non fa eccezione. Governa il suo branco con severa autorità, ma non senza giustizia. E, a differenza del Consiglio dei Vampiri, non senza sentimento. È chiaro, dal modo in cui segue ogni movimento di Misery, che non si fida di lei. Se solo sapesse quanto ha ragione…
Perché Misery ha i suoi motivi per accettare questo matrimonio di convenienza, motivi che non hanno nulla a che vedere con la politica o le alleanze, e tutto a che fare con l’unica cosa che le sia mai importata. Ed è disposta a qualsiasi cosa pur di riavere ciò che le appartiene, anche se questo significa una vita nel territorio nemico… da sola con il lupo.

Funny Story

Emily Henry

A shimmering, joyful new novel about a pair of opposites with the wrong thing in common, from #1 New York Timesbestselling author Emily Henry.

Daphne always loved the way her fiancé Peter told their story. How they met (on a blustery day), fell in love (over an errant hat), and moved back to his lakeside hometown to begin their life together. He really was good at telling it…right up until the moment he realized he was actually in love with his childhood best friend Petra.

Which is how Daphne begins her new story: Stranded in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, without friends or family but with a dream job as a children’s librarian (that barely pays the bills), and proposing to be roommates with the only person who could possibly understand her predicament: Petra’s ex, Miles Nowak.

Scruffy and chaotic—with a penchant for taking solace in the sounds of heart break love ballads —Miles is exactly the opposite of practical, buttoned up Daphne, whose coworkers know so little about her they have a running bet that she’s either FBI or in witness protection. The roommates mainly avoid one another, until one day, while drowning their sorrows, they form a tenuous friendship and a plan. If said plan also involves posting deliberately misleading photos of their summer adventures together, well, who could blame them?

But it’s all just for show, of course, because there’s no way Daphne would actually start her new chapter by falling in love with her ex-fiancé’s new fiancée’s ex…right?

Not in Love

Ali Hazelwood

A forbidden, secret affair proves that all’s fair in love and science—from New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood.

Rue Siebert might not have it all, but she has enough: a few friends she can always count on, the financial stability she yearned for as a kid, and a successful career as a biotech engineer at Kline, one of the most promising start-ups in the field of food science. Her world is stable, pleasant, and hard-fought. Until a hostile takeover and its offensively attractive front man threatens to bring it all crumbling down.

Eli Killgore and his business partners want Kline, period. Eli has his own reasons for pushing this deal through—and he’s a man who gets what he wants. With one burning exception: Rue. The woman he can’t stop thinking about. The woman who’s off-limits to him.

Torn between loyalty and an undeniable attraction, Rue and Eli throw caution out the lab and the boardroom windows. Their affair is secret, no-strings-attached, and has a built-in deadline: the day one of their companies will prevail. But the heart is risky business—one that plays for keeps.
