Jenny Han meets Olivia Rodrigo’s SOUR in this humorous and heartfelt coming-of-age novel from the author of That Wasn’t in the Script.

What do you do when your dad’s a legendary rockstar, but you’re the only one who knows it? For seventeen-year-old Emmy Harper, the answer’s simple: pretend he doesn’t exist. After all, Nick Addison, frontman of the iconic rock band Mayfair, bailed before she was even born.

Emmy’s summer plans are set until her mom drops a bomb: Nick wants to meet her. The catch? She has to spend two weeks on tour with Mayfair—incognito. After two decades of fame, scandals, and tabloid drama, he suddenly wants to get involved? Hard pass. Turns out, Emmy doesn’t have a choice.

Now stuck on the road with a bunch of rockstars, Emmy’s world is flipped upside down. Alongside the charming drummer’s son, Sullivan, she uncovers truths about Nick’s supposed abandonment and how everything she’s been taught about her family might be the farthest thing from reality.

Between band drama, first love, and backstage passes to the wild world of rock & roll, Emmy’s summer is a whirlwind of unexpected twists. But is it a chance for redemption or a ticket to chaos?

ABOUT THIS BOOK:

Discover how to do witchcraft the lazy way with this self-care-promoting book of super-easy spells and rituals for days when you’re feeling stressed, burned out, or just generally sh*tty.

Traditional witchcraft is a lot of work and some days you just need to do things the lazy way. After all, everyone gets tired sometimes. Some of us get tired a lot. In Lazy Witchcraft for Crazy Sh*tty Days, Andrea Samayoa from the popular TikTok handle MoonStreetKits, is going to show you how to do witchcraft even when you’re really, really tired. Or sick. Or burnt out. Or just had a really crappy day.

Andrea’s approach to witchcraft is rooted in making things as easy as possible, so you can continue to do magic even when you don’t have a lot of spoons to give. The book is divided into six chapters, each of which focuses on a different kind of magic, including:

Self-Care: Rituals, spell jars, and enchantments to help you go from feeling blah to feeling like the radiant magical being you are.
Focus + Energy: Teas, shaker jars, oils, and mini rituals that give you energy instead of taking it out of you.
Protection + Warding: Everything from basic protections during spell-casting to full-on warding from a**hole energy vampires.
Manifestation: Literally the easiest manifestation work you will ever do.
And more!

Each spell or ritual is rated according to the number of “spoons” it takes to perform, and yes, that does include zero-spoon options (for the REAL bad days). The book will also feature Andrea’s best witch tips for divination, bulk recipes, herbs, ingredient/item substitutions, and more.

Fun, irreverent, and gorgeously illustrated, Lazy Witchcraft for Crazy, Sh*tty Days is the easiest witchcraft book you will ever buy. It’s perfect for beginners, young practitioners, or any witch who’s ever struggled to find the magic inside themselves on a really bad day.

On the Inauguration Day, the newly elected President steps to the podium to address the nation and is shot and killed by the Secret Service agent assigned to protect him . Reeling from the assassination Gianni is called upon to help stabilize the administration.

Someone identified as the ‘Emperor’ leads a domestic terror organization known as VIPER that has infiltrated America’s national security agencies to gain control of its military power and wealth. With evidence the Secret Service and FBI may be part of VIPER, Gianni turns to CIA Director Jill Shelton to find out who’s behind the insurrection. As events spiral out of control, Gianni is left with no alternative but to seek help from his estranged brother Mario.

When the Mafia strikes VIPER in a brutal but effective way to help save the democracy from being overthrown, Gianni and Shelton face the real possibility collaborating with the Mafia could result in them becoming crime family puppets.

Eve

Christmas in Snowflake Falls is the most wonderful time of the year. The lights, sounds, and smells are pure magic. Living here is like being wrapped up in a warm holiday hug. There’s nothing better.

My cozy little world gets shaken like a snow globe when the house next door sells. Worse yet, the new neighbor’s tomcat sneaks over and makes himself at home on my Christmas quilt with my sweet feline. Furious, I storm next door to give the owner a piece of my mind, only to find John Mitchell—my first love—standing there.

It would be so easy to fall back into a rhythm with him, one where only he and I exist. As the holidays pull us closer, I have to wonder, are we just wrapped up in the season…or could this time be different?

John

Returning to Snowflake Falls is exactly what I needed in my life—especially right before Christmas. I’d forgotten how much I missed the holidays in my hometown.

What I didn’t expect was my new next-door neighbor to be the one who got away. The moment she stomps over to my house, bangs on my door, and demands cat-support in the likelihood of a feline pregnancy, I know I’m done for. Eve is every bit as feisty and beautiful as I remember.

Being around her rekindles feelings I thought had faded, and the spark between us makes me think we could pick up right where we left off. First, I have to convince her this isn’t about holiday nostalgia. It’s about forever.

A breeze from deep in the White Mountains reveals my intended female’s sweet scent after years of giving up hope another dragonblood walks the earth. I soar through the skies in dragon form, intent on claiming my destiny.

I find her camping in the wilderness—in another man’s arms.

My conscience battles my desire to tear the lovers apart, but my inner beast demands I take what belongs to us regardless of the cost to any human being.

But fate has other plans, ones I never dreamed possible.

Newlyweds Jon and Dakota agree to ride out a storm in my fire-hewn home atop a rocky peak. They don’t understand the supernatural energy that draws them to me, nor are they aware dragon shifters aren’t fantasy and that three of the ancient blood are required to breed a hatchling.

Revealing who I am and that a hint of dragonblood simmers within both of their veins uproots their existence and makes them question everything they believe.

Will Jon willingly submit to his alpha whose beast wishes to dominate him? Can Dakota accept she has no choice but to hurt the man she’s loved most of her life?

My destined mates must find the courage to make themselves vulnerable to me, or our legacy—and our species—dies with us.
