Is the truth worth dying for? TV biologist, Jasmine Heydon, escaped Bitterwood once. She was 16 and run out of town by the cops for the crime of being born on the wrong side of the tracks. Ten years later, she's changed a lot but Bitterwood hasn't. The town's only claim to fame is the legend of the River Man, a murderous creature who first killed a century ago. Back in town to film a show about the River Man, Jasmine plans to put the mystery to rest once and for all. Bitterwood's favourite son, Gil Easton, has never forgotten Jasmine, and he's never forgiven his father, the chief of police, for running her off. But now Jasmine is back, stirring things up. This time, Gil is determined to stand by her even when the locals want her silenced. As Gil works to unearth the truth, Jasmine tries to understand her own childhood sighting of the monster. As the threats escalate, the search for the truth grows dangerous ... because the River Man is killing again.

Maid of Ice

By: Shona Husk

Stalkers and death threats . . . For Finlay Ryder, danger means playing a racecar driver on a daytime soap. That is, until he’s forced to reckon with his true identity as an Albah, a magical ancient race, by one of his own kind. Someone wants him dead. And worse, an ancient vampire is on the prowl, drawing blood left and right. Now, Finlay has no choice but to hunt enemies with unspeakable powers—or risk being hunted himself . . . . . . and that’s just the first date Ice skater Alina Nyx is using her broken wrist as an excuse for a career change. And when she falls for handsome Finlay, Albah drama feels like her new full-time job. Learning about magic and vampires is exciting, until her life is threatened. Now, as she begins to uncover her own mysterious powers, she must combine forces with Finlay to eradicate their foes for good, or all Albah will suffer . . . “Smooth and suspenseful, with just enough sexual tension.”—Library Journal

Out Of Place

By: Shona Husk

Every band is desperate for that first big break – but what happens after that? Ed Vincent, front man of Selling the Sun, has a really bad case of second album jitters. Nothing he writes measures up to the expectations placed on him after the success of the first album. The tensions between band members are rising and everything seems to be falling apart just as they get started. Perhaps it wasn't meant to be: not every band gets to write their name on the pages of history. But the band has always been Ed's dream, and if Ed gives up, will he have any dreams left? Chasing dreams is something that other people do. Olivia Doyle put her life on hold after a car accident killed her fiancé and nearly claimed her life. Now with a three-year-old son and a part-time job, she knows she is stuck in a rut, but has no idea how to climb out. Then she meets Ed. He can't have the distraction of a relationship, and she has no time for anything casual. On the surface, they're in completely different places, but love has a way of finding middle ground.

Out Of Chances

By: Shona Husk

Shona Husk's sexy new adult series about emerging rock band Selling the Sun concludes this month with a story about a woman who doesn't want to connect, a man who's forgotten how and the friendships that save our lives. Dan Clarke knows he doesn't have a problem, regardless of whatever his band members, his friends, his family and everyone else thinks. Drinking isn't keeping him from doing what needs to be done, and it helps keep the anger and pain of his ex–girlfriend's betrayal at bay. If only she would stay away as well, but, since the band's return to Fremantle, she's everywhere–on the phone, in his apartment, at his parents' house–begging for another chance, reminding him of how good they had been together, holding him hostage to the past. It's no wonder he needs a beer now and again. Indigo Matthews is all about control: she trains hard, she works hard and she plays hard. Men are for fun, not forever, and she will never end up like her mother, trapped and miserable. A huge Selling the Sun fan, Indigo knows when Dan wanders into her bar that he is a conquest that she has to make. But their connection is stronger than just sex, and regardless of her credo Indigo finds herself going back for more. Then truths about Dan's life start to emerge, and Indigo finds herself in the one position she swore she'd never find herself. A DUI, a drunk one night stand and an ultimatum from the band bring Dan's life to a halt. Picking up the pieces is something he can't do alone, and there's only one person that he trusts to give a damn. The one person that he hurt the most. Indigo.

Flame Tree Road

A Novel

By: Shona Patel

“Patel follows up her 2013 debut, Teatime for the Firefly, with this soulful prequel that offers compelling and devastating details of life in India.” —Kirkus Reviews 1870s India. In a tiny village where society is ruled by a caste system and women are defined solely by marriage, young Biren Roy dreams of forging a new destiny. When his mother suffers the fate of widowhood—shunned by her loved ones and forced to live in solitary penance—Biren devotes his life to effecting change. Biren’s passionate spirit blossoms as wildly as the blazing flame trees of his homeland. With a law degree, he goes to work for the government to pioneer academic equality for girls. But in a place governed by age-old conventions, progress comes at a price, and soon Biren becomes a stranger among his own countrymen. Just when his vision for the future begins to look hopeless, he meets Maya, the independent-minded daughter of a local educator, and his soul is reignited. It is in her love that Biren finally finds his home, and in her heart that he finds the hope for a new world. “Patel skillfully uses the culture and customs of . . . India as a fascinating framework for an unforgettable story of love and loss, hope and change . . . that will stay with readers long after they turn the last page.” —Booklist (starred review) “Entranced me from the very first page . . . Patel’s lyrical writing infuses Flame Tree Road with powerful imagery.” —Historical Novel Society

Halle Ish, one of Velli's elite police Arrows, is shot down during a Precinct One riot. Wounded and unable to fly, she tries to hide and avoid capture, knowing that if she is found by the razor gangs or Clipper Sect they will sever her wings. She needs to get out of Precinct One. Avin Lent was once a promising medical student, but he started sniffing Mumble to beat the stress and is now the doctor to one of the biggest gangs in Precinct One--while not part of the Clipper Sect, they are just as dangerous. He knows he is only as useful as his next surgery and they would have no qualms about killing him. Only Jarro is keeping him safe. Jarro Coblic is deep under cover and has been for a year. Immersed in the gang, he suspects his hands will never be clean again. When he finds the wounded Arrow, he knows he can't turn her over even though everyone is looking for her. With his lover's help, they hide her and heal her wing. All the while, falling for her. He prays Avin will not crumble and reveal their secret as Jarro tries to figure out a way to get them all out of Precinct One before the Sect and the gangs bring the full wrath of Velli on Precinct One. Tearing the place down can't come soon enough, but there will be blood before the slate can be washed clean.
