Synopsis

Dismissed from the rear palace, Maomao returns to service in the outer court—as the personal serving woman to none other than Jinshi! That doesn’t necessarily make her popular with the other ladies, but a bit of jealousy might be the least of her problems. A mysterious warehouse fire, an official with a very bad case of food poisoning, and the mysterious last will and testament of a deceased craftsman all demand her attention—but are these cases really separate, or do they share a troubling connection? Then there’s the mysterious military man who continually visits Jinshi. He’s strange, maybe even a little twisted... and he seems very interested in Maomao.

    "A somewhat silly, somewhat sexy, and definitely bizarre short story that will keep your attention all the way through." 
    - Amara Rethwisch, Netgalley Reviewer 
    "Crazy short story but fun. It was nothing like I expected in any way." - Tavia Malone, Netgalley Reviewer 
    In 2021, Amber James developed an unhealthy fascination with Old Saint Nick. 
    Ever since, she’s chosen boyfriends based solely on their ability to satisfy her Santaphilia. Unfortunately, she can’t find a man worthy to come down her chimney. After multiple fails, she gives up the search for a Santa-with-benefits, and that night, she has an erotic dream featuring the jolly elf himself. 
    She awakens happily, but as the days turn into months, Amber realizes she’s pregnant. 
    The only problem is no one seems to agree. Her roommate Shelly doesn’t see the baby bump or feel the kicks, and the doctor’s pregnancy tests and ultrasounds all come back negative. The results force Amber to face her worst fears about her bio mother and a past she’s worked hard to escape. 
    Angry and scared, she’s bounced from medical doctors to psychiatrists and even an Ufologist trying to understand what’s happening to her body. As Christmas morning approaches, Amber will discover the horrifying truth of what Santa left for her. 
    Santa’s Package is a darkly bizarre Christmas story.

    Grace is a thief: a good one. She was taught by experts and she’s been practising since she was a kid. She specialises in small, high-value items—stamps, watches—and she knows her Jaeger-LeCoultres from her Patek Philippes. But it’s a solitary life, always watchful, always moving. It’s not the life she wants. 
    Lying low after a run-in with an old associate, Grace walks into Erin Mandel’s rural antiques shop and sees a chance for something different. A normal job. A place to call home. 
    But someone is looking for Erin. And someone’s looking for Grace, too. 
    And they are both, in their own ways, very dangerous men.

    FROM THE USA TODAY BESTSELLING-AUTHOR OF LIKE, FOLLOW, KILL AND WITHOUT A TRACE! 
    A night she won’t forget… 
       
    When single mum Ivy wakes up to a complete stranger lying next to her, she knows her one-night stand hook-ups have to stop. The encounters mean nothing to Ivy, but for just a short time, they make her forget her own terrible life.  
    A murder she can’t remember 
    But then Ivy discovers the stranger in her bed has been stabbed to death, and she is covered in his blood…except Ivy has no recollection of bringing this man home. Could she have killed him? 
    As she tries to piece together what happened last night, Ivy’s own past returns to haunt her. And secrets can’t stay hidden forever… 
    Lynch's narrative is a masterclass in suspense and psychological intrigue. The domestic setting serves as a stark contrast to the chilling mystery that unfolds, as Ivy's life becomes a thrilling detective story that will keep readers guessing until the very end. 
    For fans of Claire Mcgowan (Blood Tide), Jane E. James (Looking For Lucy), Sue Watson (The Empty Nest), Kate Gray (The Honeymoon), and Nikki Smith (The Guests).

    As bookstore owner Addie Greyborne shares the loving lesson of The Gift of the Magi, the spirit of the season falls prey to a thief and a killer . . . 
     
     
     
    There's no place like the seaside Massachusetts town of Greyborne Harbor for the holidays, and there's no better feeling for Addie than donating to the lighthouse museum's Twelve Days of Christmas charity fundraiser. Of the dozen books she'll be offering as prizes from her Beyond the Page Books and Curios shop, the most special volume is a first edition of The Gift of the Magi imported from England—signed by O. Henry! Addie receives an unexpected Christmas bonus when the book is hand delivered by visiting Detective Inspector Noah Parker, whom she met in England, and has been daydreaming about ever since. 
     
     
     
    But on the night Addie delivers the book to the museum, someone posing as one of Santa's Little Helpers swipes it—and the rest of the charity gifts. As if the theft wasn't bad enough, a body is found on the rocks outside the lighthouse, believed to be murdered. Now, it's up to Addie to connect the clues, find stolen goods, and catch a killer—in order to usher in a Happy New Year . . .
