It’s been a decade since Merritt Valentine’s peak as a celebrated singer-songwriter… and her subsequent career-ending mental breakdown. Since then, she’s abandoned the glitz of Los Angeles to move in with her sister, Olivia, in the sleepy Colorado ski town of Crested Peak, hoping to heal her lingering emotional wounds of the spotlight. Life in Crested Peak would be uncomplicated if not for Merritt’s inconvenient crush on the local contractor and handyman, Nikolaos Petrakis.

Rosalind James brings her sports-romance chops to three tales of football, family, and fantasy of the steamy variety. There’s more than one way to play the game, and there’s definitely more than one way to win. Meet a bossy retired quarterback with a bad knee, a coveralls-wearing, house-painting stained-glass artist who’s nobody’s pushover, a lawyer who schedules her own breakdown, a single mom who knows the cheapest cut of every meat, prize bull Marble Hill Ranch No. 11, and more.

Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts in Frankreich: Ein etwa 12-jähriges Kind, verwildert, nackt und unfähig zu sprechen, wird in den Wäldern gefangen. Der Junge, dem man den Namen Victor gibt, ist nicht nur bei der einfachen Landbevölkerung, sondern auch bei Pariser Wissenschaftlern DIE Sensation. Ein junger Arzt beginnt mit dem schwierigen Experiment der "Zivilisierung", das nur bedingt erfolgreich verläuft.

When UFO-obsessed shop owner Darla Vega drags her fashion-obsessed best friend Ronnie to the annual alien convention, they expect cosplay, conspiracy theories, and maybe a glow-in-the-dark milkshake. What they don’t expect is to stumble into a murder. When a rival podcaster drops dead inside a UFO display, Darla, Ronnie, and her snarky pup Cosmo must navigate galactic gossip, themed motel rooms, and a pile of eccentric suspects before the killer probes again—a quirky, cozy mystery packed with laughs, latex, and lethal podcast drama.

Een ijzingwekkend spannende standalone-thriller van de meester van de domestic suspense. Dertig jaar geleden werd er een kind gevonden in de bossen, een kleine jongen. Hij was volkomen verwilderd en had geen idee wie hij was of hoe hij in de bossen terecht was gekomen. De naamloze jongen werd Wilde gedoopt. Nu is er weer een kind verdwenen, Naomi Pine, maar niemand is er zeker van of het meisje niet gewoon een soort uit de hand gelopen verstoppertje speelt. Zelfs haar eigen vader lijkt zich niet al te veel zorgen te maken.

Persephone Alexander. Math genius. Lover of blazers. The only girl I know who can make Heidi braids look sexy as hell. And she’s on a mission. Lose her virginity by the end of the semester. I walked in on her interview session for potential candidates (who even does that?) and saw straight through her brave front. She’s got a list of firsts to accomplish, like she’s only got months to live.

For hundreds of years, humans and animals have had special bonds with each other. We've lived side-by-side through thick and thin - these relationships are not just about raising pets and farm animals. In Animal Kind, Emma Lock of YouTube fame shares stories of the incredible ways that animals keep us healthy and happy, physically and mentally. You'll be inspired by the tales of remarkable recovery, from vision-impaired individuals who have gained independence with the help of seeing-eye dogs, to the woman who found new life as an equestrian champion after an arm amputation.

After a blow out in high school, Makenna Halstead and I were happy to never have to cross paths again. Except life has a way of knocking you straight in the teeth with a puck when you least expect it. She hasn’t just returned to my life, she crashed into it like a wrecking ball...into my college kingdom, into my class, and smack dab into the seat next to mine. My new lab partner to be exact.

Already notorious for the golden hair that proves her mother’s infidelity, Lady Joan can’t seem to avoid scandals, but her latest escapade may finally ruin her: she’s determined to perform the title role of a prince - in breeches, naturally. She has the perfect model for an aristocratic male in mind: Thaddeus Erskine Shaw, Viscount Greywick, a man who scorned the very idea of marrying her. Not that Joan would want such a dubious honor, of course.

Bay Bishop aka The New Girl is my new neighbor. Glasses, stage crew black clothes, and a knack for fading into the background. She’s probably the only one who rolls her eyes when I walk past instead of cheering on my last touchdown play. But before I can shove her into the recesses of my mind filed under “Not my problem”, she lands herself smack dab in the middle of my dreams. I catch her singing with a voice unlike any I’ve heard before that taps into feelings I shouldn’t have for the girl who avoids me at all costs. I need to know why she hates me.

It's the ultimate in fantasy baseball: You get to pick the roster, set the lineup, and decide on strategies - with real players, in a real ballpark, in a real playoff race. That's what baseball analysts Ben Lindbergh and Sam Miller got to do when an independent minor-league team in California, the Sonoma Stompers, offered them the chance to run its baseball operations according to the most advanced statistics.

Her response never came. My secret pen pal with a dirty mind has ghosted me. I've roped Jules, my sweet as pie next door neighbor, to help me track her down. There's only one problem - I'm falling for her. The tortoise shell glasses, out of this world curves, and delicious treats are making the search for The Letter Girl even harder.

Elle: Phoenix “Nix” Russo's the big man on campus. Everyone lines up at his games to make sure he knows it. Sure, he’s got piercing blue eyes, abs that don’t quit, and a smile that could set panties on fire from a hundred yards away, but he’s also the biggest pain in my ass. Nix: Elle Masterson called the cops on one of my parties - again. My sweet talking usually gets me out of trouble, but this time it got me into a nice pair of silver handcuffs. Now I’m on a reputation rehab tour with a stop at a spring break community service project. Guess who’s my new boss?

I don’t deserve her forgiveness, but I can’t stop fighting for it. Bay ran from me four years ago, and I can’t blame her. I broke her heart and my own with one split second mistake. Now, we’re thrown together for four weeks. Training camp after the draft is the final step to cement my pro football careers, but after seeing her again, she’s the only future I want. If I were a better guy, I’d walk away and let her live her life. Maybe I haven’t learned my lesson yet because I can’t stop thinking about her. And I won’t stop until she knows how much I still love her.

Marisa’s been my best friend since third grade. And now, she needs my help - and a place to stay. Senior year was supposed to be the year to keep some distance until the season finished and my draft prospects were safe. But resisting her is becoming impossible. Movie Thursdays under the blankets. Study sessions on my bed. Wild party nights where I kept any guy interested at bay with a single glare.

Should I tell you a story? Not a fairytale, mind you. There's not a princess to be seen. Nor a prince. Not even a hero. This is about the stripper and the outlaw. Our story begins with the Sons of Templar MC, with a man even the outlaws fear. He was trouble. More than trouble. A scoundrel. A sinner. A villain. To everyone but me. Our story begins with blood, violence, and pain. I have a feeling it will end that way too. But it's too late for escape. I've fallen for the scoundrel. The sinner. The outlaw.

Six years ago, in the dead of night, I woke up to a cold bed and an even colder future without her. I would’ve followed her anywhere, and she left. I thought I’d moved on and left all she meant to me behind. But a first love is never easy to forget. Even harder when I once felt our love was inevitable - inescapable. And I’ve been proven right once again. One night brings us back together and derails our lives. We’re sent on a collision course with a future apart and, even scarier - a future together.

Hinter vielen typischen Familienschwierigkeiten stecken keine Erziehungsfehler. Vielmehr passt das evolutionäre Gepäck, mit dem Kinder auf die Welt kommen, nicht mehr zu den veränderten Lebensbedingungen unserer modernen Welt. Mit einem neuen Verständnis für kindliche Entwicklung können wir Wege finden, um den Bedürfnissen von Eltern UND Kindern gerecht zu werden. In der Erziehung blicken Eltern in die Zukunft. Sie wollen ihren Kindern ja einen Weg weisen. Dabei vergessen sie leicht die Vergangenheit.

Kinder durch Gefühlsstürme begleiten Viele Eltern möchten, dass ihre Kinder Wut, Frust und Ärger ausleben dürfen. Gefühle gelten nicht mehr als etwas Überflüssiges, das man Kindern schnell abgewöhnen sollte. Doch wie man es besser macht als frühere Generationen, ist nicht leicht zu beantworten. Ein wütendes Kind kann Eltern stark verunsichern und an ihre Grenzen bringen. Eliane Retz zeigt, wie Eltern Gefühlsausbrüche liebevoll und regulierend begleiten können, ohne die eigenen Bedürfnisse zu verleugnen oder Schuldgefühle zu entwickeln.

Wie Kinder sich entwickeln – die (R)Evolution im Kinderzimmer. Kinder verstehen liegt nun in komplett überarbeiteter, ergänzter und aktualisierter Fassung vor. Der bewährte Kern ist geblieben: Den typischen Familienproblemen - Warum schläft das Kind nicht ein? Warum schreit es so oft? Warum isst es so schlecht? - liegen keine Erziehungsfehler zugrunde. Der Blickwinkel der Evolution zeigt vielmehr: Kinder haben gute Gründe für ihr Verhalten. Vieles, was uns "schwierig" erscheint, hat ihnen in der Vergangenheit geholfen, sich im Leben zu behaupten.
