+++ Aufwendig gestaltete Ausgabe mit limitiertem Farbschnitt +++ Wenn der Grinch auf die Booktok-Liebe trifft: Ein Weihnachtsabenteuer in einer eingeschneiten Buchhandlung Als die bekannte Booktokerin Mia die Chance bekommt, Weihnachten abgeschieden und alleine in einer Buchhandlung feiern zu können, braucht sie nicht zweimal überlegen, bevor sie zusagt. Was gibt es Schöneres, als Weihnachten mit einem Bookboyfriend zu verbringen, Punsch zu trinken und inmitten von Büchern zu schlafen? So viel zum unschlagbaren Plan, der allerdings dank eines Schneesturms schnell zunichtegemacht wird. Statt alleine sitzt sie mit dem schlecht gelaunten Arzt Nick in der Buchhandlung fest. Einem Mann, der Weihnachten hasst und Bücher für eine Zeitverschwendung hält, solange sie ihm kein neues medizinisches Wissen vermitteln. Weihnachten scheint sich zu einem Albtraum zu entwickeln, bis Mia es schafft, die harte Schale des ungehobelten Grinches zu knacken. Vielleicht steckt in Nick ja doch mehr Bookboyfriend-Potential als gedacht ... Eine lustig-romantische Weihnachtsgeschichte.

From global phenomenon Callie Hart comes a Sunday Times bestselling highly addictive enemies-to-lovers Romantasy with razor-sharp banter, heart-stopping action, and blistering hot romance that you won't be able to put down! 🗝️ Do not touch the sword. Do not turn the key. Do not open the gate. 🗡️ In the land of the unforgiving desert, there isn't much a girl wouldn't do for a glass of water. Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently re-opens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares... but it turns out they're real, and Saeris has landed herself in the middle of a centuries-long conflict that might just get her killed. The first of her kind to tread the frozen mountains of Yvelia in over a thousand years, Saeris mistakenly binds herself to Kingfisher, a handsome Fae warrior, who has secrets and nefarious agendas of his own. He will use her Alchemist's magic to protect his people, no matter what it costs him . . . or her. Death has a name. It is Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he's the only way Saeris is going to make it home. Be careful of the deals you make, dear child. The devil is in the details . . . N.B.

Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.

Olive is always unlucky: in her career, in love, in ... well, everything. Her identical twin sister Amy, on the other hand, is probably the luckiest person in the world. Her meeting with her fiance is something out of a romantic comedy (ugh) and she's managed to finance her entire wedding by winning a series of online contests (double ugh). Worst of all, she's forcing Olive to spend the day with her sworn enemy, Ethan, who just happens to be the best man. Olive just has to get through twenty-four hours of wedding hell before she can return to her comfortable, unlucky life. But when the entire wedding party - except for Olive and Ethan - gets food poisoning, there's an all-expenses-paid honeymoon in Hawaii up for grabs. Putting their mutual hatred aside for the sake of a free vacation, Olive and Ethan head for paradise, determined to avoid each other at all costs. But when Olive runs into her future boss, the little white lie she tells him becomes a whole lot bigger. She and Ethan now have to pretend to be loving newlyweds. But the weird thing is that she doesn't mind playing pretend. In fact, she feels kind of ... lucky.

A stunning hardcover collector's edition of Ali Hazelwood's debut novel, beloved bestseller and TikTok sensation featuring: - A shimmering, revamped cover - Endpapers with all new art from Lilithsaur featuring Olive and Adam - STEM stencilled spredges - A sunny, foil stamped case and... a brand new bonus chapter featuring THAT KISS from Adam's point of view!

Which is why Olive is positively floored when he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire and Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support (and his unyielding abs), their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

What is wrong meets what feels right in this romance set in Italy by the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of Deep End. Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life. Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him. It's such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother's best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it clear that he wants her gone from his life. But not everything is as it seems - and clichés sometimes become plot twists. When Maya's brother decides to get married in Taormina, she and Conor end up stuck together in a romantic Sicilian villa for over a week. There, on the beautiful Ionian coast, between ancient ruins, delicious foods, and natural caves, Maya realizes that Conor might be hiding something from her. And as the destination wedding begins to erupt out of control, she decides that a summer fling might be just what she needs - even if it's a problematic one. It's officially Problematic Summer - and readers can't get enough: 'Ali Hazelwood's books do it for me EVERY TIME. I simply devoured every page of this...I just didn't want it to end! So many things in this just checked every box for me. The setting? GORGEOUS! The angst and tension? FINGER LICKING! The characters? I love them all, your honour...Conor and Maya?
