NOVEDADES

Danica Pierce has one great love in her life: work. As one of the top divorce lawyers in Austin, Danica lets her caseload keep her warm at night and has no problem being married to her job, not when love only ends in hurt. When the biggest case of her career gives her a shot at making partner, it seems like nothing could possibly stand in her way…except for her infuriating secret: she’s sleeping with the enemy. Ezra Hart is known for charming his way in and out of a courtroom. In the matter of winning Danica Pierce’s heart, however, he’s been far less successful. With her verdict to keep things purely physical with no chance of appeal, Ezra struggles to show Danica he’s more than the insufferable playboy she’s pegged him to be—especially since they find themselves on opposing sides of Danica’s most important case to date. While Dani and Ezra battle it out in the courtroom, the real trial is the one happening between them. When Dani realizes that everything she knows of Ezra might be hearsay—and that she’s not the only one with emotional baggage—she must choose between her fear of trusting again and the feelings blossoming between her and the man she thought was her worst enemy.

Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why—or even who Tobias Hawthorne is. To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch—and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Unfortunately for Avery, Hawthorne House is also occupied by the family that Tobias Hawthorne just dispossessed. This includes the four Hawthorne grandsons: dangerous, magnetic, brilliant boys who grew up with every expectation that one day, they would inherit billions. Heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is convinced that Avery must be a conwoman, and he's determined to take her down. His brother, Jameson, views her as their grandfather's last hurrah: a twisted riddle, a puzzle to be solved. Caught in a world of wealth and privilege with danger around every turn, Avery will have to play the game herself just to survive.

Un estudio psicológico sobre la maldad humana. Todos hacemos cosas malas. Todos mentimos, engañamos y hacemos daño a los demás. Todos sabemos lo que es el mal. Pero, ¿nos convierte eso en seres malvados? ¿Qué nos diferencia de los grandes criminales de la historia? En este ensayo inteligente y accesible, la doctora Julia Shaw se adentra en el funcionamiento de los pensamientos y las acciones más malvadas. Sirviéndose de conocimientos propios de la psicología y la neurociencia, nos muestra que los mismos mecanismos que hacen posibles los crímenes más atroces también pueden funcionar a nuestro favor, ya que forman parte de nuestra naturaleza. Gracias a una convincente combinación de ciencia, cultura popular y ejemplos de la vida real, este libro es capaz de plantear cuestiones como ¿cuánto se parece nuestro cerebro al de un psicópata?, ¿cuántas personas fantasean con cometer un asesinato?, ¿nuestras inclinaciones sexuales nos hacen malas personas? o ¿quién se convierte en terrorista? y resultar fascinante y convincente al dar las respuestas.

Duncan’s crayons just can’t seem to stay put! After convincing one group of crayons to go back to work after they wanted to quit and rescuing another group who got lost in the most inconvenient places, Duncan’s crayons have disappeared once more.

Seventeen-year-old Cassie is a natural at reading people, piecing together the tiniest details to know who a person is, and what they want. But it’s not a skill she takes seriously until the FBI come knocking—they’ve begun a classified program that uses exceptional teens to crack infamous cold cases, and they want her to join. What Cassie doesn't realize is that there’s more at risk than a few unsolved homicides. Sent to live with a group of teens whose gifts are as unusual as her own, she quickly realizes no one in the Naturals program is what they seem. Emotion-reader Michael is a wild card—and far too perceptive for Cassie’s good. The resident deception-detector is a pathological liar, and the program’s perky, blonde statistician is far better with numbers than with people. And then there’s Dean—a profiler like Cassie but with a much darker gift. When a new killer strikes, danger looms close. Caught in a lethal game of cat and mouse with a killer, the Naturals are going to have to use all of their gifts just to survive. Perfect for fans of Criminal Minds and Holly Jackson, Jennifer Lynn Barnes delivers a suspense-ridden psychological thriller with killer appeal, a love triangle to die for, and a gorgeous new design that will stand out on any she
