The USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man is back with another hilarious rom-com about two strangers who get trapped in a lie and have to fake date their way out of it... Just weeks away from ditching DC for greener pastures, Solange Pereira is roped into helping her wedding planner cousin on a random couple’s big day. It’s an easy gig... until she stumbles upon a situation that convinces her the pair isn’t meant to be. What’s a true-blue romantic to do? Crash the wedding, of course. And ensure the unsuspecting groom doesn’t make the biggest mistake of his life. Dean Chapman had his future all mapped out. He was about to check off “start a family” and on track to “make partner” when his modern day marriage of convenience went up in smoke. Then he learns he might not land an assignment that could be his ticket to a promotion unless he has a significant other and, in a moment of panic, Dean claims to be in love with the woman who crashed his wedding. Oops. Now Dean has a whole new item on his to-do list: beg Solange to be his pretend girlfriend. Solange feels a tiny bit bad about ruining Dean’s wedding, so she agrees to play along. Yet as they fake-date their way around town, what started as a performance for Dean’s colleagues turns into a connection that neither he nor Solange can deny. Their entire romance is a sham... there’s no way these polar opposites could fall in love for real, right?

Numa voz intimista e com humor, a escritora Helena Magalhães analisa o impacto da cultura patriarcal em que as mulheres continuam a viver, enquanto partilha histórias pessoais que nos fazem pensar sobre o crescimento, a descoberta de quem somos e qual é o nosso propósito. Tudo isto enquanto lidamos com as amizades, mudanças de empregos, família, perda, traumas e, claro, o amor. Esta é uma história sobre os triunfos e as frustrações da vida adulta e os medos e incertezas que nos condicionam. Sobre aprendermos a deixar de ser como os outros nos veem para sermos aquilo que vemos em nós. E sobre os laços entre mulheres e a força transformadora das amizades femininas. Porque é nessa jornada, com tudo o que carregamos aos ombros, que nos tornamos ferozes.

O romance de estreia de Glória Brito foi aclamado pela crítica e adorado pelos leitores. O sucesso, porém, não se repetiu. A escritora está agora perto dos quarenta anos e começa a questionar o seu talento e o seu lugar no mundo. O medo instala-se. Viver era mais simples no bairro onde cresceu, um tempo em que se sentia livre e a sua família ainda estava completa. Já não é assim. Glória abandonou o bairro, embora a sua memória teime em levá-la para lá. A liberdade não cumpriu a sua promessa de plenitude. A destruição da família alterou a sua relação com os outros e consigo mesma. A única constante na sua vida é Lúcia, uma amiga que insiste em arrancá-la à solidão, mesmo quando Glória resiste. Serão as palavras crípticas de uma voz do seu passado a abalar essa resistência. Quem sabe, talvez o livro que precisa de escrever já esteja escrito. Atos de Desobediência explora a intimidade feminina, as relações entre mulheres e homens, entre gerações e classes sociais, numa celebração tão apaixonada quanto crítica da literatura e da arte.

Nothing will get in the way of Millie Price’s dream to become a Broadway star. Not her lovable but super-introverted dad, who after raising Millie alone, doesn’t want to watch her leave home to pursue her dream. Not her pesky and ongoing drama club rival, Oliver, who is the very definition of Simmering Romantic Tension. And not the “Millie Moods,” the feelings of intense emotion that threaten to overwhelm, always at maddeningly inconvenient times. Millie needs an ally. And when a left-open browser brings Millie to her dad’s embarrassingly moody LiveJournal from 2003, Millie knows just what to do. She’s going to find her mom. There’s Steph, a still-aspiring stage actress and receptionist at a talent agency. There’s Farrah, ethereal dance teacher who clearly doesn’t have the two left feet Millie has. And Beth, the chipper and sweet stage enthusiast with an equally exuberant fifteen-year-old daughter (A possible sister?! This is getting out of hand). But how can you find a new part of your life and expect it to fit into your old one, without leaving any marks? And why is it that when you go looking for the past, it somehow keeps bringing you back to what you’ve had all along?

Music is magic in this novel set in a fantastical version of New Orleans where a battle for the city's soul brews between two young mages, a vengeful wraith, and one powerful song. Nola is a city full of wonders. A place of sky trolleys and dead cabs, where haints dance the night away and Wise Women help keep the order. To those from Away, Nola might seem strange. To Perilous Graves, it’s simply home. In a world of everyday miracles, Perry might not have a talent for magic, but he does know Nola’s rhythm as intimately as his own heartbeat. So when the city’s Great Magician starts appearing in odd places and essential songs are forgotten, Perry realizes trouble is afoot. Nine songs of power have escaped from the piano that maintains the city’s beat, and without them, Nola will fail. Unwilling to watch his home be destroyed, Perry will sacrifice everything to save it. But a storm is brewing, and the Haint of All Haints is awake. Nola’s time might be coming to an end.
