When Lady Miss returns to her great-aunt's church in New Orleans to plan the funeral of the beloved Mother Miss Pearline, she discovers that the humble congregation of her youth has been transformed into a megachurch conglomerate run by holograms, subscriptions, and an AI named Earncybot. At the center of it all is the scheming Illuminate Slanders, a woman with five dead husbands, a suspicious will, and a dangerous plan to upload every church member's consciousness into her AI network.

There’s safe. There’s dangerous. And then there’s Ryker Dane. Most men can walk the line between light and dark. They know when to stop, when to let go. Ryker? He was never one of them. I knew from the start that he was the kind of man you stay far away from. Silent. Ruthless. Cold as the steel he carried under his jacket. The problem? I didn’t want to stay away. For fans of dangerous love, anti-heroes who live by their own rules, and the women who bring them to their knees.

A new recording of Ray Bradbury’s timeless classic Fahrenheit 451 narrated by Penn Badgley! More than seventy years after its original publication, Ray Bradbury’s internationally acclaimed novel Fahrenheit 451 stands as a classic of world literature set in a bleak, dystopian future. Today...

There’s chasing the truth. There’s hunting down a story. And then there’s walking straight into a war. Marcus Dane is not a man to be investigated. He’s the shadows in a city full of secrets. Silent. Unforgiving. The kind of danger that doesn’t make noise until it’s too late. I came to Charleston for answers. The explosion at Folly Beach Pier was no accident, and I’m going to prove it. My editor says to be smart, to keep my distance. But that’s hard to do when Marcus keeps showing up—shoving me against walls, growling threats in my ear, daring me to dig too deep. The real problem?

The moment I scent her, everything in me goes still. Not because she’s beautiful—though she is. Not because she’s hurt—though the blood on her skin makes something savage in me rise. But because that blood carries a truth she doesn’t know: She’s not human. And she’s mine. She wakes afraid, confused, certain she’s just an ordinary woman who got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. I wish she were. It would make protecting her easier. It would make walking away possible. But nothing about her is ordinary—not her scent, not her presence, not the way my wolf reacts ...

Starting a new life in Florida means year-round sunshine, beautiful beaches, and balmy breezes. For most people, anyway. But not for thirtysomething Piper and her grandmother, former members of a motorcycle gang in Oregon. For them, it means entering the witness protection program and moving to Bitter End in the Sunshine State. Yes, to Bitter End. It doesn’t get much more ironic than this. But hey, it’s better than rotting in jail for getting busted with tax evasion and money laundering, and infinitely better than getting killed by said gang for testifying against them.

I was raised to color inside the lines. To smile sweet, say “yes, ma’am,” and never ask questions I didn’t want answered. But then I met Noah Dane. And now, all I do is question everything. He’s not like the men I was taught to trust. He’s not gentle. He’s not safe. Noah is sharp edges and steady aim. A former special ops sniper with ice in his veins and ghosts behind his eyes. The kind of man who watches from the shadows —and never misses his mark. He shouldn't even know my name. But he does. And he says I’m his. I tried to run. Tried to pray him out of my system.

I came to Charleston for music, not men. This city is just another stop on my way to something bigger. A few months of playing, then I’m gone. No attachments. No complications. Then I see him. Atlas Dane. Silent. Watchful. Built like a warrior, dressed like a king. He doesn’t belong at an event like this, hulking in a tuxedo while I play for people who sip champagne and pretend they understand Bach. But he’s not pretending. He watches my hands like he already knows what they can do. He speaks in low, measured words that make my breath catch. And when I trip—because I always do—he’s there.

My return home to my family's small town hasn't been easy, but the new contractor I hired—a struggling but strong-willed single mom—keeps stripping her clothes off on the job site, which certainly spices things up. (She swears a spider crawled under her shirt.) She also divulges she's scared of her ex and he's taking her to court for custody of their daughter. I hate to see a woman mistreated, so I step up and marry her so she has a stronger case in front of the judge. Temporarily, of course.

Zero condescending tone. Your guide is Morgan — 12 years old, endlessly curious, and allergic to "because I said so" answers. Not a teacher. Not a scientist.
