The Princess Diaries meets The Bodyguard in this sparkling novel of royalty and romance, secrets and spies, from New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord. Rosie’s name is synonymous with loyalty and protection. Part of an elite security training program for teenage recruits, her instincts are great. Her impulse control? Not so much. After an assignment gone wrong, she’s shipped off to Europe on probation. If she messes up, she can’t come back. Her job? To go undercover as the bodyguard for the long-lost prince of Marilova. There’s just one problem: Rosie already knows him. Nick’s life has been a whirlwind ever since his identity was uncovered. Now he’s been thrust into the spotlight as heir of Marilova, and tensions have never been higher. The Queen will spare no expense to keep him safe―including hiring a bodyguard. Except, Nick doesn’t want Rosie’s protection. They worked together years ago. He even saved her life once. But he has his reasons for keeping his distance. As a plot against the royals unfolds, Rosie and Nick are thrust into an intricate web of secret alliances and courtly games as they unravel who wants Nick off the throne. But tensions have always existed between Nick and Rosie, and she wonders if she can protect the prince while also protecting her heart.

From New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis comes the first book in a breathtaking new romantic fantasy duology about a woman exiled by superstition who joins a dragon-hunting voyage only to be caught between a formidable longship captain, a prince destined for the throne, and an ancient power that could change her fate…or destroy a kingdom. Branded as bad luck and bound to her barren island home by the superstition of skalds and sailors alike, Emelya has no future…until she risks her life to save a storm-tossed longship and boldly challenges formidable—and dangerously compelling—Captain Ragnar to let her prove her worth. But what begins as a desperate gamble soon becomes the adventure of a lifetime, for the crew is hunting a legendary colossal dragon—a mythic beast said to bear the old gods' blessing. Only Prince Erik, the devastatingly handsome (and charming) son of an ailing king, believes the myths are true…just as he believes Emelya may be the key to helping him unlock their ancient power. As the longship sails farther north, storms rage, monsters rise from icy depths, and the line between legend and death grows perilously thin…and Emelya finds herself caught between an ancient power meant for kings and the love of two men that could bring ruin to them all. By the dragon's choosing, Queens will rise and Kingdoms will shatter.

This highly anticipated follow-up to The Will of the Many—one of 2023’s most lauded and bestselling fantasy novels—follows Vis as he grapples with a dangerous secret that could change the course of history across alternate dimensions. OMNE TRIUM PERFECTUM. The Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. Still hail me as Catenicus. They still, as one, believe they know who I am. But with all that has happened—with what I fear is coming—I am not sure it matters anymore. I am no longer one. I won the Iudicium, and lost everything—and now, impossibly, the ancient device beyond the Labyrinth has replicated me across three separate worlds. A different version of myself in each of Obiteum, Luceum, and Res. Three different bodies, three different lives. I have to hide; fight; play politics. I have to train; trust; lie. I have to kill; heal; prove myself again, and again, and again. I am loved, and hated, and entirely alone. Above all, though, I need to find answers before it’s too late. To understand the nature of what has happened to me, and why. I need to find a way to stop the coming Cataclysm, because if all I have learned is true, I may be the only one who can.

When the scientist Victor Frankenstein attempts to create life in his laboratory, he sets in motion tragic forces beyond his control and faces losing everything he loves. No reader in the grip of Mary Shelley’s novel, with its mythic-minded hero and its highly sympathetic monster who reads Goethe and longs to be at peace with himself, can fail to notice how much more excellent the original is than all the countless adaptations, imitations, and homages which have followed in its ample wake. In her first novel, written at the instigation of Lord Byron and published in 1818 (and revised in 1831), the teenaged Shelley managed to produce English Romanticism’s finest prose fiction. This edition reproduces her original 1818 text.

Rival ornithologists hunt through England for a rare magical bird in this historical-fantasy rom-com reminiscent of Indiana Jones but with manners, tea, and helicopter parasols. Beth Pickering is on the verge of finally capturing the rare deathwhistler bird when Professor Devon Lockley swoops in, capturing both her bird and her imagination like a villain. Albeit a handsome and charming villain, but that's beside the point. As someone highly educated in the ruthless discipline of ornithology, Beth knows trouble when she sees it, and she is determined to keep her distance from Devon.  For his part, Devon has never been more smitten than when he first set eyes on Professor Beth Pickering. She's so pretty, so polite, so capable of bringing down a fiery, deadly bird using only her wits. In other words, an angel. Devon understands he must not get close to her, however, since they're professional rivals.  When a competition to become Birder of the Year by capturing an endangered caladrius bird is announced, Beth and Devon are forced to team up to have any chance of winning. Now keeping their distance becomes a question of one bed or two. But they must take the risk, because fowl play is afoot, and they can't trust anyone else—for all may be fair in love and war, but this is ornithology.

And Murderbot would rather those questions went away. For good. Martha Wells' Rogue Protocol is the third in the Murderbot Diaries series, starring a human-like android who keeps getting sucked back into adventure after adventure, though it just wants to be left alone, away from humanity and small talk.
