  • A Summer of Stars

    £10.99

    After a messy breakup, it feels like the entire world hates tennis superstar Luna Aldridge. With her reputation ruined and her career at risk, the only way to repair it is a PR stunt: fake-dating Hollywood’s golden boy, Kieran Alexander. There’s just one problem – Luna can’t stand him. For Kieran, the feeling is mutual. He’s about to lead a big-screen love story, but his dating history is jeopardizing the film’s success. His team believes the world needs to see him wildly in love. And who better than Luna, the person he loathes most? Soon, Luna and Kieran spend the summer posing for cameras, sharing red carpets and flying around the world for the tennis circuit. But the more they pretend, the more they question if they can keep their hearts, and their careers, together. Especially with everyone watching.

But following time off for his mental health, Eitan’s friends and colleagues begin to question his judgement as his chaotic investigation and equally chaotic life spiral simultaneously out of control.

In a city where neighbours turn on one another to survive and competing factions of the Occupiers entangle him in their power struggles, Eddie must risk everything – and ask himself: Can he trust anyone?

  • Stone and Sky

    £10.99

    Detective Sergeant Peter Grant takes a much-needed holiday up in Scotland. And he’ll need one when this is over. If more’s the merrier, then it’s ecstatic as his partner Beverley, their young twins, his mum, dad, his dad’s band and their dodgy manager all tag along. Even his boss, DCI Thomas Nightingale, takes in the coastal airs as he trains Peter’s cousin Abigail in the arcane arts. And they’ll need them too, because Scotland’s Granite City has more than its fair share of history and mystery, myth – and murder. When a body is found in a bus stop, fresh from the sea, the case smells fishy from the off. Something may be stirring beyond the bay – but there’s something far stranger in the sky.

Now that he is older, Lalloo saves every rupee he earns in the city in the hope that he might one day be able to rescue his family. Yet as he falls in love with a girl he thought he’d lost forever, he realises that their freedom will only come with unimaginable sacrifice. And as the fireflies dance overhead, Lalloo must finally choose his own destiny.

  • Picking Daisies on Sundays

    £10.99

    Daniella Daisy Maria had always longed for love – until she fell for her childhood best friend Levi. It was the hand-trembling, heart-thumping kind of love that you weren’t supposed to feel when you looked at your best friend. But it all ended when he didn’t feel the same way and she vowed to never see him again. Four years later and one night in a crowded bar in the West Village, there he is, just as perfect as ever. Maybe it’s the lighting or the way his hair curls above his brow, but when he asks her to be his fake girlfriend for his sister’s wedding, she can’t bring herself to say no.

But when he escapes: there is no sign she ever even existed. To find her again, Patch charts an epic search across the country. And, to set him free, Saint will shadow his journey: on a darker path to hunt down the man who took them. Even if finding the truth means losing each other forever.

  • The Bodyguard

    £10.99

    Hannah looks more like a kindergarten teacher than someone who could kill you with her bare hands. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka. bodyguard) and she’s just been hired to protect superstar Jack Stapleton. Jack’s an impossibly handsome actor who looks like he has everything. Including a creepy, corgi-breeding stalker. When Jack’s mom gets sick, he heads home to the family’s Texas ranch to help out. Only one catch: He doesn’t want his family to know about his stalker. Or the bodyguard thing. And so Hannah – against her better judgment – finds herself pulling on her cowboy boots and pretending to be Jack’s girlfriend as a cover. It’s easy for Hannah to protect Jack. But protecting her own heart? That’s the hardest thing she’s ever done.
