A ruthless king wants her future, but his mage already owns her past. When Enora Wynn travels to Grimmoria for a marriage alliance, the princess-turned-soldier expects the loss of her freedom in a loveless union. Instead, she’s abandoned at the border, branded a criminal, and told the king she was promised to is dead. Then she meets his heir. Maksym is ruthless and dangerous. He should have ended her the moment she crossed his border, but offers up a bargain instead: survive their deadly military trials, and he will claim Enora as his bride. In Grimmoria, though, her greatest threat isn’t the trials—it’s the high mage at Maksym’s side. Jasper was once the boy who vanished from Enora’s life and left her heart in pieces. Now he’s a man made of secrets and restraint, with his very presence threatening to surface everything she buried to survive. And the further Enora finds herself tangled between the king who claimed her future and the mage who destroyed her past, she must decide where her loyalty truly lies: with the kingdom she vowed to serve…or the enemies who feel dangerously like home.

Meet Celaena Sardothien. Beautiful. Deadly. Destined for greatness. In a land without magic, where the king rules with an iron hand, Celaena, an assassin, is summoned to the castle. She comes not to kill the king, but to win her freedom. If she defeats twenty-three killers, thieves, and warriors in a competition, she is released from prison to serve as the king’s champion. The Crown Prince will provoke her. The Captain of the Guard will protect her. But something evil dwells in the castle of glass—and it’s there to kill. When her competitors start dying one by one, Celaena’s fight for freedom becomes a fight for survival, and a desperate quest to root out the evil before it destroys her world.

A game. A husband-and-wife game. Gerald's Game. But this time Jessie didn't want to play. Lying there, spreadeagled and handcuffed to the bedstead while he'd loomed and drooled over her, she'd felt angry and humiliated. So she'd kicked out hard. Aimed to hit him where it hurt. And now he was dead - a coronary - on the floor. Leaving Jessie alone and helpless in a lakeside holiday cabin. Miles from nowhere. No-one to hear her screams. Alone. Except for the voices in her head that begun to chatter and argue and sneer...

Jeder Mensch sehnt sich danach, angenommen und geliebt zu werden. Im Idealfall entwickeln wir während unserer Kindheit das nötige Selbst- und Urvertrauen, das uns als Erwachsene durchs Leben trägt.

Erfolgsautorin Stefanie Stahl hat einen neuen, wirksamen Ansatz zur Arbeit mit dem »inneren Kind« entwickelt: Wenn wir Freundschaft mit ihm schließen, bieten sich erstaunliche Möglichkeiten, Konflikte zu lösen, Beziehungen glücklicher zu gestalten und auf (fast) jedes Problem eine Antwort zu finden.

Sie nimmt einen Job als Englischlehrerin an einer Grundschule in Seoul an, um ihr altes Leben hinter sich zu lassen und ab sofort nur noch ihre eigenen Träume zu verwirklichen.

Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she's struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Worse, she can't seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it. The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre's Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta's orbit. But her temper isn't the only thing Cassian ignites. The fire between them is undeniable, and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other. Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts. Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance-and healing-in each other's arms.
