INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

Olive Smith es una doctoranda de tercer año que no cree en las relaciones amorosas duraderas, pero su mejor amiga, Ahn, sí, y por eso Olive se ha metido en un lío monumental. A Ahn le gusta el exnovio de Olive, pero jamás daría el primer paso porque es una buena amiga. A Olive no le va a resultar nada fácil convencerla de que ha pasado página, puesto que los científicos necesitan pruebas. Por eso, como cualquier mujer con un mínimo de amor propio, se deja llevar por el pánico y besa al primer hombre con el que se encuentra para que Ahn la vea. Ese hombre es nada más y nada menos que Adam Carlsen, un joven profesor tan reputado por la calidad de su trabajo como por su imbecilidad. Así que Olive se queda de piedra cuando Carlsen accede a mantener su farsa en secreto y ser su novio falso. Sin embargo, después de que un importante congreso científico se convierta en un desastre y Adam vuelva a sorprenderla con su apoyo inquebrantable (y sus inquebrantables abdominales), su pequeño experimento se acerca peligrosamente al punto de combustión. Olive no tarda en descubrir que la única cosa más complicada que una hipótesis sobre el amor es analizar su propio corazón bajo el microscopio.

One summer. Two rivals. A plot twist they didn’t see coming… Nora Stephens’ life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away—with visions of a small town transformation for Nora, who she’s convinced needs to become the heroine in her own story. But instead of picnics in meadows, or run-ins with a handsome country doctor or bulging-forearmed bartender, Nora keeps bumping into Charlie Lastra, a bookish brooding editor from back in the city. It would be a meet-cute if not for the fact that they’ve met many times and it’s never been cute. If Nora knows she’s not an ideal heroine, Charlie knows he’s nobody’s hero, but as they are thrown together again and again—in a series of coincidences no editor worth their salt would allow—what they discover might just unravel the carefully crafted stories they’ve written about themselves.

Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange again... Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was

Being the Clown Prince of Crime’s dog doesn’t win him any friends behind bars, especially after he gets a tough-talking stray cat named Penny tossed into lockup with him. But they’ll have to work together to figure out what the evil Warden Shar Pei’s helper, Dr. Hugo Mange, is up to. And the only way to stop this terrifying team-up is to win the talent show and get visitation with their masters at Arkham on the hill. Because the Joker is sure to help! What could go wrong with that plan? And where does Gotham’s premier playboy Bruce Wayne’s butler Alfred fit in?

Rue Siebert might not have it all, but she has enough: a few friends she can always count on, the financial stability she yearned for as a kid, and a successful career as a biotech engineer at Kline, one of the most promising start-ups in the field of food science. Her world is stable, pleasant, and hard-fought. Until a hostile takeover and its offensively attractive front man threatens to bring it all crumbling down. Eli Killgore and his business partners want Kline, period. Eli has his own reasons for pushing this deal through—and he’s a man who gets what he wants. With one burning exception: Rue. The woman he can’t stop thinking about. The woman who’s off-limits to him. Torn between loyalty and an undeniable attraction, Rue and Eli throw caution out the lab and the boardroom windows. Their affair is secret, no-strings-attached, and has a built-in deadline: the day one of their companies will prevail. But the heart is risky business—one that plays for keeps.
