Alanna thought rock climbing in Yosemite National Park would be the trip of a lifetime. Until an earthquake strikes and she finds herself plummeting to her death.

A mysterious man named Erick uses incredible powers to save her life, then tells her that his magical world has collided with earth, merging the two together. Alanna writes it off as crazy, until he shows her a vision of her brother being dragged down a sandy cobblestone street in chains. Crazy or not, she’ll do anything to save him.

As Alanna and Erick team up to rescue her brother from the clutches of a decrepit sorcerer king, fate intervenes in the form of a handsome prince. Alanna doesn’t know who to trust, but in this foreign land, flying solo just might get her killed…

Sultana of Amethys Sands by Emma Savant

A beautiful genie craves her freedom. A handsome prince longs to heal his kingdom. And a con artist named Aladdah has big plans for them all.

Between theft, sleight of hand, and her indentured servitude to a powerful magician, Aladdah has always managed to survive the brutal streets of Citron. But survival isn’t enough for a woman of Aladdah’s ambition. She craves more—more food, more power, and more magic than her master has seen fit to teach her.

When she demands a greater challenge, her master sends her on a mission into an enchanted cavern beneath the desert sands. There, in an abandoned garden glittering with the lights of precious jewels, Aladdah discovers a genie whose power and beauty are matched only by her determination to escape the bonds of her servitude.

But the genie is bound by her magic lamp, subject to Aladdah’s every wish, and it’s an opportunity no self-respecting street rat could resist. Aladdah forms a plan to use the genie to destroy the sultan and establish herself as a new ruler who will turn the savage inequality of Citron on its head.

But the sultan has many protectors, from his court magicians to the beautiful, idealistic son who infuriates and enchants Aladdah in equal measure. Her genie fights her at every turn. And her old master will not be dismissed so easily, not when he has a plan to gain power the likes of which the kingdoms have never seen.

Sultana of Amethyst Sands is a romantic, fast-paced adventure through the sands of a faraway kingdom of magic, genies, and wishes come true.

Excerpt Reveal: WE SHOULDN'T by VI KEELAND

Title (Naslov): We Shouldn't

Author (Avtor): #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Vi Keeland
A Standalone Contemporary Romance (samostojna sodobna romantika)

RELEASING JANUARY 21st!
(IZŠLA BO 21. JANUARJA)

SYNOPSYS (OPIS)

Bennett Fox walked into my life on one hell of a crappy Monday morning.

I was late for the first day at my new job—a job I’d now have to compete for even though I’d already worked eight years to earn it, because of an unexpected merger.

While I lugged my belongings up to my new office, a meter maid wrote me a parking summons
.

She’d ticketed a long line of cars—except for the Audi parked in front of me, which happened to be the same make and model as mine.

Annoyed, I decided to regift my ticket to the car that had evaded a fine.Chances were, the owner would pay it and be none the wiser.

Except, I accidentally broke the windshield wiper while slipping the ticket onto the car’s window.

Seriously, my day couldn’t get any worse.

Things started to perk up when I ran into a gorgeous man in the elevator. We had one of those brief moments that only happened in movies.

You know the deal…your body lights up, fireworks go off, and the air around you crackles with electricity.

His heated stare left me flush when I stepped off the elevator.

Maybe things here wouldn’t be so bad after all.

Or so I thought.

Until I walked into my new boss’s office and met my competition.

The gorgeous man from the elevator was now my nemesis. His heated stare wasn’t because of any mutual attraction. It was because he’d saw me vandalize his car. And now he couldn’t wait to annihilate his rival.

There’s a fine line between love and hate—and we shouldn’t cross it.

We shouldn’t—but straddling that line could be so much fun.

Bennett Fox je vkorakal v moje življenje na usrano ponedeljkovo jutro.

Prvi dan svoje nove službe sem zamujala- službo za katero se moram potruditi zaradi neke združitve, čeprav si jo zaslužim že osem let.

Ko sem svoje osebne stvari tovorila v mojo novo pisarno, mi je radarka napisala parkirno kazen.

Popisala je celo vrsto avtomobilov- razen Audija parkiranega pred mano, ki je bil slučajno isti model kot moj.

Jezna sem se odločila podariti kazenski listek avtu, ki se ga je izognila. Tako bo plačal lastnik avta in ne jaz.

Ko sem listek zatikala za brisalec, sem tega po nesreči razbila.

Res moj dan ni mogel biti še bolj grozen.

Stvari so se začele izboljševati, ko sem stekla v čudovitega moškega v dvigalu. Imela sva tisti kratek trenutek, ki se zgodijo samo v filmu.

Veste kakšen je občutek...vaše telo postane topleje, iskrice letijo na vse strani in v zraku je posebna energija.

Ko sem stopila iz dvigala, me je gledal.

Mogoče pa stvari le ne bodo tako slabe.

Vsaj tako sem mislila.

Dokler nisem vstopila v pisarno svojega novega šefa in spoznala svojega nasprotnika.

Čudovit moški iz dvigala je bil moj novi sovražnik. Njegov pogled ni bil zaradi privlačnosti. Gledal me je, ker me je videl, da sem poškodovala njegov avto in zdaj komaj čaka, da me popolnoma premaga.

Le en korak je od sovraštva do ljubezni - ne bi ga smela prehoditi.

Ne bi smela- vendar zna biti zelo zabavno.

EXCERPT (ODLOMEK)

Figures.
It was the gorgeous guy I’d seen in the elevator. And here I thought we’d had a little spark.
Bennett Fox grinned like he’d already been named my boss and extended his hand. “Welcome to Foster Burnett.”
Ugh. He wasn’t just good looking; he knew it, too.
“That would be Foster, Burnett and Wren, as of a few weeks ago, right?” I iced my subtle reminder that this was now our place of employment with a smile, suddenly thankful my parents had made me wear braces until I was nearly sixteen.
“Of course.” My new nemesis smiled just as brightly. Apparently his parents had sprung for orthodontic care, too.
Bennett Fox was also tall. I once read an article that said the aver-age height of a man in the US was five-foot-nine-and-a-half inches; less than fifteen percent of men stood taller than six feet. Yet the average height of more than sixty-eight percent of Fortune 500 CEOs was over six feet. Subconsciously, we related size to power in more ways than just brawn.
Andrew was six foot two. I’d guess this guy was about the same.
Bennett pulled out the guest chair next to him. “Please, have a seat.”
Tall and with gentlemanly manners. I disliked him already.
During the ensuing twenty-minute pep talk given by Jonas Stern—in which he attempted to convince us we weren’t vying for the same position, but instead forging the way as leaders of the now-largest ad agency in the United States—I stole glances at Bennett Fox.
Shoes: definitely expensive. Conservative, oxford in style, but with a modern edge of topstitching. Ferragamo would be my guess. Big feet, too.
Suit: dark navy, tailored to fit his tall, broad frame. The kind of un-derstated luxury that said he had money, but didn’t need to flaunt it to impress you.
He had one long leg casually crossed over the other knee, as if we were discussing the weather rather than being told everything we’d worked twelve hours a day, six days a week for was suddenly at risk of being in vain.
At one point, Jonas had said something we both agreed with, and we looked at each other, nodding. Given the opportunity for a closer inspection, my eyes roamed his handsome face. Strong jaw, daringly straight, perfect nose—the type of bone structure passed down from generation to generation that was better and more useful than any monetary inheritance. But his eyes were the showstopper: a deep, penetrating green that popped from his smooth, tanned skin. Those were currently staring right at me.
I looked away, returning my attention to Jonas. “So what happens at the end of the ninety-day integration period? Will there be two Creative Directors of West Coast Market-ing?”
Jonas looked back and forth between us and sighed. “No. But no one is going to lose his or her job. I was just about to tell Bennett the news. Rob Gatts announced he’ll be retiring in a few months. So there will be a position opening up for a creative director to replace him.”
I had no idea what that meant. But apparently Bennett did.
“So one of us gets shipped off to Dallas to replace Rob in the southwest region?” he asked.
Jonas’s face told me Bennett wouldn’t be happy about the prospect of heading to Texas. “Yes.”
All three of us let that sink in for a moment. The possibility of having to relocate to Texas shifted my mind back into gear, though.
“Who will make the decision?” I asked. “Because obviously you’ve been working with Bennett…”
Jonas shook his head and waved off what I was beginning to ques-tion. “Decisions like this—where two senior management positions are being merged into one of-fice—the board will oversee and make the final determination of who gets first pick.”
Bennett was just as confused as me. “The board members don’t work with us on a daily basis.”
“No, they don’t. So they’ve come up with a method of making their decision.”
“Which is?”
“It’ll be based on three major client pitches. You’ll both come up with campaigns on your own and present them. The clients will pick which they like best.”
Bennett looked rattled for the first time. His perfect composure and self-assuredness took a hit as he leaned forward and raked long fingers through his hair.
“You’ve got to be kidding me. More than ten years, and my job here comes down to a few pitches? I’ve landed half-a-billion dollars of ad accounts for this compa-ny.”
“I’m sorry, Bennett. I really am. But one of the conditions of the Wren merger was that due consideration be given to the Wren employees in positions that might be eliminated because of duplicity. The deal almost didn’t go through because Mrs. Wren was so in-sistent that she not sell her husband’s company, only to have the new organization strip away all of Wren’s hard-working employees.”
That made me smile. Mr. Wren was taking care of his employees even after he was gone.
“I’m up for the challenge.” I looked at Bennett, who was clearly pissed off. “May the best woman win.”
He scowled. “You mean man.”

Sneak Peak: DEAR BRIDGET, I WANT YOU by PENELOPE WARD & VI KEELAND

Title (Naslov): Dear Bridget, I Want You

A standalone novel (samostojni roman)

Author (Avtor): Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland
New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Authors

Genre (Kategorija): contemporary romance (sodobna romantika)

Release date (Datum izida): 9/18/2017 (18.9.2017)

BLURB (OPIS)

Dear Bridget,

I’m writing this letter because it’s highly doubtful I’ll ever garner the courage to say this to your face.

So, here goes.

We’re totally wrong for each other. You’re the proper single mum with a good head on your shoulders. I’m just the carefree British doctor passing through town and temporarily living in your converted garage until I head back to England.

But here’s the thing… for some bloody reason, I can’t stop thinking about you in very inappropriate ways.

I want you.

The only reason I’m even admitting all of this to you right now is because I don’t believe it’s one-sided. I notice your eyes when you look at me, too. And as crass as I appear when we’re joking around about sex, my attraction to you is not a joke.

So, what’s the purpose of this note? I guess it’s a reminder that we’re adults, that sex is healthy and natural, and that you can find me just through the door past the kitchen. More specifically, it’s to let you know that I’m leaving said door cracked open from now on in case you’d like to visit me in the middle of the night sometime.

No questions asked.

Think about it.

Or don’t.

Whatever you choose.

It’s doubtful I’ll even end up sliding this letter under your door anyway.

--Simon

Draga Bridget,

Pišem ti pismo, ker ne vem, če bom kdaj zbral pogum, da te pogledam v oči in ti to povem.

No, naj začnem.

Midva nisva za skupaj. Ti si sposobna samska mama, ki ve kaj počne. Jaz sem brezskrben Britanski zdravnik, ki je trenutno v tvoji državi in začasno živi v tvoji garaži. Vendar bom kmalu odšel v Anglijo.

Problem je takšen...da iz nekega razloga ne morem nehati misliti na tebe.

Želim si te.

Mislim, da tega ne čutim samo jaz. In to je tudi edini razlog zakaj sem ti vse to priznal. Videl sem te, ko si me opazovala. Veliko se šaliva okoli seksa, vendar to, da me privlačiš ni šala.

Kaj je torej namen tega pisma? To je opozorilo, da sva odrasla ter da je seks zdrav in naraven. Najdeš me takoj za vrati v kuhinji. Posebej ti sporočam, da puščam vrata odprta, če se slučajno odločiš, da me kdaj ponoči obiščeš.

Vprašanja niso potrebna.

Razmisli o tem.

Ali pa ne.

Karkoli boš izbrala.

Čeprav sem v dvomih, bom vseeno pustil tole pismo pod tvojimi vrati.

--Simon

EXCERPT (ODLOMEK)

Every time I considered leaving my room, I would grab the framed picture of Ben and stare at it. The urge to go to Simon was so strong; I basically hadn’t put down the framed photo of my deceased husband in an hour. I was lying in my bed, holding a picture of a dead man while fantasizing about one who was very much alive and in the other room. With the door cracked open waiting for me. There was one part of Simon’s note that I just kept reading over and over.

I want to make you come. Hard. I want you to get lost in me and I want to hear you say my name over and over while we fuck.

While we fuck.

While we fuck.

I was pretty sure that Ben had never used the word fuck like that before. Did we even fuck? We made love, sure. Our sex life was normal—at least, I think it was normal. Don’t get me wrong, the passion wasn’t the same as when we first got together. But after ten years, both of us working full time and raising a child, it was normal to have some of the desire dwindle, wasn’t it?

While we fuck.

I looked at the picture of my husband and sighed. We didn’t fuck. Not even in the beginning. And I felt guilty for that now. Maybe we should have been fucking. I certainly didn’t do anything to entice him to want me the last few years. Was it my fault our sex life had gotten boring? I rested the picture of Ben over my heart and laid my hand over it. I could feel my heart beating out of control beneath my fingers.

Shutting my eyes, I tried to force thoughts of Simon from my mind. But it was no use. Visions of his hard, sculpted body hovering over me had infiltrated my brain. So, here I was, a thirty-three-year-old, single mother lying in my bed all alone with a picture of my dead husband held to my heart while I visualized fucking another man.

Fucking.

Not making love.

I needed my head examined.

After two hours and no sleep in sight, I decided the only way I was going to be able to get any rest was if I got everything I was feeling off of my chest. Flicking on the light, I carefully set the framed photo of my beloved Ben on my nightstand and then opened the drawer and dug out a pen and piece of pretty stationery. I would write down my thoughts to clear my mind. I had no intention of actually giving the letter to Simon, so there was no reason to filter anything I said.

Dear Simon…

Sneak Peak: DRUNK DIAL by PENELOPE WARD

Title (Naslov): Drunk Dial

A standalone (samostojna knjiga)

Author (Avtor): Penelope Ward - New York Times, USA Today, and #1 Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author

Genre (Kategorija): contemporary romance (sodobna romantika)

Release date (Datum izida): 8/21/2017 (21.8.2017)

SYNOPSIS (OPIS)

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

It seems like a good idea at the time. Look up Landon Roderick, that boy from childhood whorm I'd never been able to forget—even though he so easily forget about me—and call him.

Then again, anything sounds like a good idea when you've had a little too much wine before bed, right? It was supposed to be just a quick, meaningless, prank call. Instead, I went off on him—unloading thirteen years of pent-up emotions.

I didn't think he'd call me back.

I ceetainly could never have anticipated the weeks of sexsually tense phone conversation that followed as I got to know the man he'd become.

Turned out, Landon had never really forgotten me, either. That special connection we had was still there. I opened up to him, but there were also things about me he didn't know. And he had his own secret.

Over the countless hours we talked on the phone, I wondered what would happen if we actually saw each other. One night, I did something impulsive again. Only this time, I went to the airport and booked a ticket to California. We were about to find out if one phone call could bring two lost souls together or if my drunk dial really was all just a big mistake.

A complete standalone.

Najbolj prodajana pisateljica na lestvici New York Times Bestseller Penelope Ward, nam obljublja nov seksi samostojen roman.

Ta trenutek se zdi to odlična ideja. Poklicati Landona Rodericka, fanta iz otroštva katerega nisem mogla pozabiti, čeprav me je on pozabil.

Ko pred spanjem popiješ preveč vina, se vse zdi odlična ideja. To naj bi bil hiter, brez pomenski in šaljiv klic. Namesto tega sem mu izpovedala vsa svoja čustva, ki sem jih v teh trinajstih letih zadrževala v sebi.

Nisem pomislila, da me bo poklical nazaj.

Nikoli si nisem mislila, da bom čutila seksualno napetost po telefonskih pogovorih, ki sva jih imela. Preko pogovorov sem spoznala moškega kakršen je postal.

Izkazalo se je, da tudi Landon ni nikoli pozabil name. Posebna vez med nama je še vedno prisotna. Zaupala sem mu, ampak so bile določene stvari o meni za katere ni vedel. Tudi on je imel svoje skrivnosti.

Po vseh teh telefonskih pogovorih, sem razmišljala kaj bi se zgodilo, če bi se dejansko srečala. Neko noč sem storila nekaj čisto nagonskega. Odšla sem na letališče in kupila vozovnico do Kalifornije. Morava ugotoviti, ali bo telefonski klic povezal dve izgubljeni duši. Ali pa je bil ta pijanski telefonski klic samo napaka.

Drunk dial je samostojna knjiga.

EXCERPT (ODLOMEK)

After that evening, I hadn’t heard back from him for a few days.

Then, one night, a text came in from the same phone number I recognized as Landon’s. It was the first time he’d texted me.

I looked down to find he’d sent a photo.

I gasped.

It was a heavily tatted man set against the backdrop of the ocean at sunset. Oh, my. It was him—a selfie.

Fuck. Me. He was beautiful.

I wouldn’t have even known it was Landon were it not for the blue eyes I recognized instantly. The shaggy, caramel hair I remembered from the past was now a darker shade of brown and shorter, cropped closer to his head. His arms and his chest were inked, his body so perfect that if I squinted, it almost resembled carved stone.

I couldn’t stop looking at him. My eyes wanted nothing more than to explore the ridges and valleys of his stunning body.

Was this a cruel joke?

This was not Landon!

But, it was.

With my thumb and middle finger, I kept zooming in and out, examining the details of the ink across his chest and on his arms. There was really nothing sexier than a guy with perfect arms and a full sleeve tattoo.

Even though his lips seemed fuller than I recalled, they still curved into a familiar grin that oozed confidence. The eyes and that smile were the only traces of the boy I remembered. I wished I could’ve leapt through the screen to smell him, touch him.

“Hi, Landon,” I whispered, for a brief moment talking to the boy inside, not the man in front of me.

This Landon was the polar opposite of the Ivy League yuppie image previously in my head. The only thing the man pictured might have majored in was badassery. He looked like a rockstar, a rule breaker, displaying a sense of arousing danger—someone who must have had women from all walks of life drooling over him for the sheer fact that either they couldn’t have him or shouldn’t have him. It suddenly became clear why, as he’d alluded to, a woman might have been begging him for sex. That made me wonder if he had any secret tattoos in spots I wasn’t allowed to see.

God.

A fire was burning inside of me, and I knew it was my crush exploding into a full-blown obsession.

A self-conscious feeling came over me. If I was scared to show him a picture of myself before, now I was really hesitant.

The message that went along with the photo simply read:

Now show me you.
