Book SynopsisFrom Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author, the thrilling conclusion to her Hidden Legacy series, as Nevada and Rogan grapple with a power beyond even their imagination…Nevada Baylor can’t decide which is more frustrating—harnessing her truthseeker abilities or dealing with Connor “Mad” Rogan and their evolving relationship. Yes, the billionaire Prime is helping her navigate the complex magical world in which she’s become a crucial player—and sometimes a pawn—but she also has to deal with his ex-fiancée, whose husband has disappeared, and whose damsel-in-distress act is wearing very, very thin.Rogan faces his own challenges, too, as Nevada’s magical rank has made her a desirable match for other Primes. Controlling his immense powers is child’s play next to controlling his conflicting emotions. And now he and Nevada are confronted by a new threat within her own family. Can they face this together? Or is their world about to go up in smoke?Trade Review“Avid readers know that it doesn’t get better than turning fellow readers on to a fantastic book or series, so if paranormal romance aficionados have not yet discovered Andrews’ phenomenal Hidden Legacy trilogy, then they are truly missing out! In the conclusion of this story arc, brilliant Andrews pulls out all the stops and delivers in a mammoth way. The evolution of Nevada and Rogan’s romance has been an incredible saga that has also been jam-packed with high-stakes magical mayhem, family and political machinations, as well as the development of an abiding passion and respect. This series is an utter joy to read and I truly hope this is not the last we will see of Nevada and Rogan!” — RT Book Reviews (top pick) “Ilona Andrews always delivers!

Book SynopsisAn IndieNext Pick! A Best Book of 2022 in Harper?s Bazaar, Daily Mail, Glamour, and Thrillist!Most Anticipated of 2022 in The Millions, Ms. Magazine, LitHubA young, mixed-race vampire must find a way to balance her deep-seated desire to live amongst humans with herincessant hunger in this stunning debut novel from a writer-to-watch.Lydia is hungry. She''s always wanted to try Japanese food. Sashimi, ramen, onigiri with sour plum stuffed inside - the food her Japanese father liked to eat. And then there is bubble tea and iced-coffee, ice cream and cake, and foraged herbs and plants, and the vegetables grown by the other young artists at the London studio space she is secretly squatting in. But, Lydia can''t eat any of these things. Her body doesn''t work like those of other people. The only thing she can digest is blood, and it turns out that sourcing fresh pigs'' blood in London - where she is living away from her vampire mother for the first time - is much more difficult than she''d anticipated.Then there are the humans - the other artists at the studio space, the people at the gallery she interns at, the strange men that follow her after dark, and Ben, a boyish, goofy-grinned artist she is developing feelings for. Lydia knows that they are her natural prey, but she can''t bring herself to feed on them. In her windowless studio, where she paints and studies the work of other artists, binge-watches Buffy the Vampire Slayer and videos of people eating food on YouTube and Instagram, Lydia considers her place in the world. She has many of the things humans wish for - perpetual youth, near-invulnerability, immortality ?but she is miserable; she is lonely; and she is hungry - always hungry.As Lydia develops as a woman and an artist, she will learn that she must reconcile the conflicts within her - between her demon and human sides, her mixed ethnic heritage, and her relationship with food, and, in turn, humans - if she is to find a way to exist in the world. Before any of this, however, she must eat.?Absolutely brilliant ? tragic, funny, eccentric and so perfectly suited to this particularly weird time. Claire Kohda takes the vampire trope and makes it her ownin a way that feels fresh and original. Serious issues of race, disability, misogyny, body image, sexual abusearehandled withsubtlety, insight, and a lightness of touch.The spell this novelcasts is so complete I feel utterly, and happily, bitten.? -- Ruth Ozeki, Booker-shortlisted author ofA Tale for the Time Being

Many of these objects were gifts from the black-clad fans who made his metal band a legend and made him rich. But not all. When his personal assistant told him there was a ghost for sale on the Internet, Jude knew he had to have it for his private collection. He didn't think twice. He should have.

This one means to chase him to the edge of sanity. His new acquisition delivered to his doorstep in a black heart-shaped box is the restless soul of Anna's vengeful stepdaddy. Craddock McDermott swore he would settle with Jude for ruining his daughter's life.
