Book Description
This story is about a long suppressed love triangle between Leonidas Tachezy, a high-level Austrian career bureaucrat, his younger, trophy wife Amelie, and a Jewish woman from his past, Vera Wormser, with whom he'd fallen in love when she was fourteen. After his marriage, Leonidas encounters Vera in a German university town where she is studying philosophy. He makes a promise that implies marriage, but drops out of her life entirely to return to a comfortable existence until one day when a letter arrives, addressed with Vera's unmistakable handwriting in pale blue ink. Like Humbert Humbert in Lolita, Leonidas explains his "crime" against Vera to an imaginary courtroom in a way that anticipates Nabokov.

Book Description
Prince Edgar Sigor just wants to be left alone. But as his brother, the king, grows increasingly ill with no legitimate heir, Edgar is unlikely to get his wish. Countess Flora Byrne wants to help her family and the kingdom, but she begins to question whether or not her closest friends have the same priorities. Presley Kemp, dealing with his own relationship problems, suddenly finds himself helping to judge prospective matches for the prince. But no one is as surprised to be involved in the marriage plans as the young and romantic Rohesia Swithin. Who Edgar might marry becomes the most contentious issue in the kingdom, even while war threatens. Picking up three years after For Her Own Good, Royal Obligation delves deeper into the world of Myrcia, but can be enjoyed on its own.

Book Description
One of Refinery29's and POPSUGAR's Favorite New Books A scary story becomes far too real in this “unsettling” supernatural thriller in the vein of A Head Full of Ghosts that “will keep you guessing to the very last page” (Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger) Red Lady, Red Lady, show us your face... In 1991, Heather Cole and her friends were members of the Dead Girls Club. Obsessed with the macabre, the girls exchanged stories about serial killers and imaginary monsters, like the Red Lady, the spirit of a vengeful witch killed centuries before. Heather knew the stories were just that, until her best friend Becca began insisting the Red Lady was real—and she could prove it. That belief got Becca killed. It’s been nearly thirty years, but Heather has never told anyone what really happened that night—that Becca was right and the Red Lady was real. She’s done her best to put that fateful summer, Becca, and the Red Lady, behind her. Until a familiar necklace arrives in the mail, a necklace Heather hasn’t seen since the night Becca died. The night Heather killed her. Now, someone else knows what she did . . . and they’re determined to make Heather pay.
