So when they’re met with a new person to protect, they close ranks and vow that they will keep their club members and friends safe from harm. But are they strong enough to pursue the new threat after surviving their last war? Or are they still struggling, still mourning a lost member to pay attention to the signs? Will they be victorious while taking on a club as savage as the MSMC?

Stella : One night with Kruger was enough to ruin me for any other man. But knowing that he only thought of me as a friend, and didn’t remember what we did, I knew I couldn’t stay and watch him work his way through the club bunnies. I fled back to Florida, unaware that I was taking a piece of Kruger with me while leaving him my heart. Kruger: If I was ever meant to claim a woman, it would be someone like Stella. Only, I’m a hard man; my father made sure I knew not to trust a woman, and an ex hammered that point home. While I hate that she went back to Florida, I let her go so that she could have the life I’ll never be able to give her. But all that changes when we receive a phone call that Stella’s been hurt in an accident. Finding out that I fathered a child on that fateful night, has me heading to Florida to get my son and discover why Stella thought it would be a good idea to hide him from me. Once again, my trust has been shattered by a woman. Back in Texas, while trying to acclimate myself to the fact that I’m a father, we’re faced with old and new enemies. Will the cement wall around my heart crumble or will I be content to co-parent my son with his mother?

All this will be thoroughly explained in book 4... Utterly Wrecked.

Or will their strengths boil over and fill the club with hope?

A collection of paper, parchment, and skins, the journal tells of bloodshed, kidnapping, magic and shapeshifting, set against the harsh landscapes of the 17th-Century Mughal Empire. It reveals the story of hunters and prey, lovers and the beloved, and, in the end, the choice to be transformed, or be quarry"--

Mia’s ordinary life is disrupted for good in the most horrifying way possible when she is possessed by a hungry and powerful demon—and saved only by the arrival of relatives from Italy, the country her grandfather fled many decades ago. Now her cousins, the charming and gorgeous Emilio and stern, elderly Giuliano, say the only way to keep Mia safe is for her to come back with them to Milan, to live, to learn Italian, to fall in and out of love, and to master the family trade: fighting all demons with the ancient lore of bell, book, and candle. Milan is not what Mia expected, but it will change her forever.

When a banished witch falls in love with the legendary trickster Loki, she risks the wrath of the gods in this moving, subversive national bestselling debut novel that reimagines Norse mythology. Angrboda’s story begins where most witches' tales end: with a burning. A punishment from Odin for refusing to provide him with knowledge of the future, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless, and she flees into the farthest reaches of a remote forest. There she is found by a man who reveals himself to be Loki, and her initial distrust of him transforms into a deep and abiding love. Their union produces three unusual children, each with a secret destiny, who Angrboda is keen to raise at the edge of the world, safely hidden from Odin’s all-seeing eye. But as Angrboda slowly recovers her prophetic powers, she learns that her blissful life—and possibly all of existence—is in danger. With help from the fierce huntress Skadi, with whom she shares a growing bond, Angrboda must choose whether she’ll accept the fate that she’s foreseen for her beloved family...or rise to remake their future. From the most ancient of tales this novel forges a story of love, loss, and hope for the modern age.

Featuring tons of fun facts about the series alongside a walkthrough of all books and covers in the Goosebumps collections, this art book is a must-have for old and new fans alike! In the summer of 1992, Scholastic tasked two terrifyingly talented artists with creating the cover paintings for the books that would premiere the Goosebumps series. At that time, four books in the line were being market-tested by the publisher to see how young readers would react to R.L. Stine’s particular brand of humor-tinged horror. One element that was sure to catch the attention of little eyes everywhere was striking cover art, and, boy, did they find it! The imagery provided by the covers of the Goosebumps series is part and parcel to the 90s Kid zeitgeist, helping to create a visual brand for R.L. Stine’s smash-hit horror series. The covers helped set the tone for the numerous adaptations of the series, including a television series, a theatre experience, and, more recently, blockbuster films!

Athena: Connecting with my brothers was a dream I'd always prayed would come true. They were the exact opposite of our father, thankfully, except for the fact that all three of them were protective to a fault, something I sometimes enjoyed, yet at other times I wanted nothing more than to throttle them. Every last one of them. I now had a family and people to love unconditionally and care for; things I never expected based on the upbringing that was forced upon me. Is it possible that I might win the man of my dreams heart? I'm going to do everything within my power to ensure this outcome. I deserve a little joy and happiness in my life. Liam: The best part about being a valued member of the Ghost Team is the comradery I have built with the other mercenaries. Growing up a military brat, I had planned to serve my country for the rest of my life, or at least until they forced me to retire. Our last mission forced us all to step back and reevaluate what we wanted, but our commander Silas had another formidable plan in mind, one that we all wholeheartedly agreed with putting into effect. What I never expected to find was that one woman who could bring me to my knees, vanquishing my old demons and providing me with a new outcome on life. Making her mine. When a threat against Athena forces her and Liam to flee to a safe house until the brothers can locate where it's coming from, they find themselves deep in Amish country, living as husband and wife. Can Athena and Liam navigate through their twisted lives and nightmares to come out on the other side as one cohesive unit? Or will the lengths they need to go to and the hurdles to jump be more than this couple can endure?

Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh examines the rebuilding of the city of Banda Aceh in Indonesia in the aftermath of the celebrated Helsinki-based peace mediation process, thirty years of armed conflict, and the tsunami. Offering a critical contribution to the study of post-conflict politics, the book includes 14 documentary videos reflecting individuals’ experiences on rebuilding the city and following the everyday lives of people in Banda Aceh. Marjaana Jauhola mirrors the peace-making process from the perspective of the ‘outcast’ and invisible, challenging the selective narrative and ideals of the peace as a success story. Jauhola provides alternative ways to reflect the peace dialogue using ethnographic and film documentarist storytelling. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh tells a story of layered exiles and displacement, revealing hidden narratives of violence and grief while exposing struggles over gendered expectations of being good and respectable women and men. It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace.

It’s an all-new horror classic about what happens when the truth is the last thing we want to believe, from Bram Stoker Award–winner and master of thrills and chills, horror legend Adam Cesare. After barely making it out of the Kettle Springs cornfields alive, Quinn’s first year away at college should be safe and easy. All she wants is to be normal again. But instead, Quinn finds that her past won’t leave her alone when she becomes the focus of online conspiracy theories that claim the Kettle Springs Massacre never happened. It’s a deranged but relentless fantasy, and there’s nothing Quinn can do to get people to hear the truth—not even on her own campus or in her own dorm room. So when a murderous clown attacks Quinn at a frat party while another goes after her father in Kettle Springs at the same time, Quinn realizes that the facts alone are never going to save her. Her only option is to go back into the cornfields, back where the nightmare began, to set the record straight the only way she knows how. Because when the truth gets lost in the lies, that’s when people start to die. Clown in a Cornfield was 2020’s Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel. Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives is perfectly set to attract old and new fans to the series.

Malice is the chosen enforcer for the DreamCatcher Motorcycle Club. He will do whatever it takes to keep the club and his family safe, by whatever means necessary to accomplish this. He was content with life until Jessia entered. She may have years of damage by her brother's hands to overcome, but he’s on a mission to do whatever it takes to prove to her that she’s nowhere near broken.
