Katherine Parker doesn’t just dream of rowing in the Olympics. She has a carefully crafted plan. With a strict training schedule, a meticulous diet, and no one else in her boat to slow her down, she’s as good as gold.
Then her boyfriend breaks up with her at the starting line of a big race and Kath comes in dead last. She’s swiftly kicked off the team and out of the Olympic Training Center—the only place she’s ever felt at home.
With one shot to win back her spot, Kath returns to her hometown to train with a new coach. The upside? Coach Adrian is hot. The downside? Instead of letting Kath follow her own training regimen, Adrian pushes her outside her comfort zone, urging her to try new things and let go of control.
With her Olympic dreams on the line, Kath will have to choose: stick to her perfect plan, or find out if the key to winning—and happiness—is to embrace the part of rowing that makes it fun, one sweaty, sexy training session at a time.

Pro hockey star Ryan Price may be an enforcer, but off the ice he struggles with anxiety. Recently traded to Toronto, he’s determined to make a fresh start in the city’s dynamic LGBTQ+ Village. The last thing he expects to find in his new neighborhood is a blast from his past in the fabulous form of Fabian Salah.

Between dance clubs and art exhibits—and the most amazing sex—Ryan’s feeling something he hasn’t experienced in a long time: joy. But playing the role of the heavy on the ice has taken its toll on his body and mind, and a future with Fabian may mean hanging up his skates for good.

Kip Grady knew there was more to Scott’s frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott’s penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon—and more.

Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can’t afford to do anything that might derail his career or the public’s image of what a hockey captain should be. Kip is ready to go all in with Scott—but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?
Cumbres Borrascosas, la historia del amor imposible entre Catherine y Heathcliff ambientada en los desolados brezales de Yorkshire, constituye una asombrosa visión metafísica del destino, la obsesión, la pasión y la venganza. En ella, Emily Brontë rompió con los cánones del decoro que se le exigían a toda novela en su tiempo, tanto en cuanto al tema como a la descripción de los personajes, pero la originalidad de su estructura narrativa y la fuerza de su lenguaje la convirtieron en una de las obras más perdurables e influyentes de la literatura inglesa.
«He aquí una frase extraña: supe qué es estar muriéndose».
En noviembre de 2020, pocos meses antes de publicar su primera novela, la autora de este libro estuvo a punto de perder la vida. Un sábado como cualquier otro, en su casa, sin saberlo, ella y su pareja se estaban muriendo. La caldera tenía una fuga y el monóxido de carbono los fue adormeciendo hasta que Marta se levantó a duras penas para ir al baño. Ahí, cayó desplomada y se golpeó la cabeza. Cinco años ha necesitado para narrar esta experiencia en una historia que conjuga la tensión narrativa, la ansiedad y la esperanza.
Oxígeno es «el libro que nunca hubiera querido escribir», el relato de los minutos en los que se le escapaba la vida, el de los meses que siguieron el accidente y el de los años que lo precedieron todo, cuando ella y su pareja se enamoraron y empezaron a construir una vida sin pensar que podría terminar en cualquier momento. Combinando con maestría la sensibilidad, el sentido del humor y la lucidez, la autora mira de frente a la muerte para celebrar el asombro diario de seguir aquí.
