Beautiful Venom (2025)
Others: Positive In a den of vipers, revenge is the deadliest venom. They shattered my world; now, I’ll bring down theirs. The problem? I have virtually no way to trace the puppet master. My only lead: The Vipers. An elite college hockey team that rules the ice—and the shadows beyond it. To infiltrate their secret society, I set my sights on their weakest link. Kane Davenport. The charismatic captain and the lone green flag in a nest of serpents. But too late, I realize I’ve enticed the most venomous snake. Kane’s friendly façade hides a predator more dangerous than I imagined. He quickly unveils the monster lurking beneath the surface. A monster who lured me in only to trap me in a lethal game with no escape.

Others: PositiveI dedicated my entire life to ballet, and what did it get me? A limp, an intact v-card, and zero job prospects. Squatting in my sister’s apartment, watching game shows and feeling sorry for myself seems like an ideal way to pass the time until I figure out what to do next. Unfortunately, my father doesn’t agree. Thanks to him, I’ll now be spending my days stapling pieces of paper together at his architecture firm, under the watchful eye of his business partner. Holden Ellinger is the last person I want seeing me at my lowest. The man might be obscenely attractive, but he’s also a conceited playboy with too much money and a pathological fear of commitment. The one silver lining in this situation? My new boss really, really wants me and, as it turns out, I really, really like being a tease.

Others: MixedCan I outrun his merciless obsession? I accidentally witnessed a brutal murder. I froze, pretended I saw nothing, hoping I could leave it behind. But my plan backfired, and my life spiraled downward. Now, I'm the target of cold-blooded revenge. Jude Callahan isn't just a hockey god―he's a devil no one dares to cross. My existence disrupts his stardom, prestige, and possible serial killer career choice. And he's set out to make me pay for that moment of silence. No matter how much I run or hide, he finds me, watching from the shadows. Like a predator. I thought he'd stop at the stalking. Or even better, he'd kill me and finally end my misery. But Jude has other plans. He says I can't die. I have to pay for my sins. And just like that, he drags me into his depraved world, kicking and screaming.

Others: PositiveOne night—that’s all it was supposed to be. No names. No complications.And now? He’s everywhere.In every trending video.In all the news headlines.On every freaking billboard. Turns out, he’s not just some guy. He’s Flynn Holland, Lake City’s new hotshot pitcher. The one that’s supposed to end our team’s fifty-year championship drought (the same way I’ve fantasized about him ending mine). As if that weren’t bad enough, my daughter loves him and he’s the poster boy for my rival bookstore.Flynn’s perfect smile is plastered all over town, selling their books, like some kind of traitorous golden boy—while he’s over here giving me his best game.Pass. I’ve had enough heartbreak for two lifetimes.But then he looks at me, and I forget how to breathe.Not to mention, he’s so good with my little girl, it’s downright unfair. He’s maddeningly gorgeous, ridiculously persistent, and dragging me straight into his spotlight.I need him to stay away—before I do something I’ll regret.

Others: PositiveSpicy enemies-to-lovers romance about a billionaire developer and a small-town entrepreneur battling their desires in the Land of the Midnight Sun. Myles St. James is tearing my world apart. Wish I’d known that before I slept with him. It was supposed to be a one-night stand. Like I knew anything about those. But I needed to blow off steam. My ex had just gotten engaged. My dry spell was nearing six months. And my booming wedding planning business—the one I started with my bestie—was about to lose its favorite venue to some bulldozer-happy developer from New York. The Seaside Inn is such a special place. My second home. And ever since that famous singer got married there, people are flocking to Blushing, Alaska, for their own weddings too. Guess whose fling turns out to be the hotshot real estate guy? But he isn’t what I expected. And sleeping with the enemy doesn’t feel nearly as wrong as it should. Because Myles St. James is rocking my world. Too bad giving in to him could mean giving up my dreams.

Others: PositiveAn emotional, spicy, second-chance romance from USA Today bestselling author Tarah DeWitt. This time, they'll get it right. Wren and Ellis Byrd fell in love as kids, had their son Sam when they were only teenagers, and built a life together in the coastal town of Spunes, Oregon. They were made for one another…until they fell apart. Now divorced and in their 30s, Wren runs the bakery in town, while Ellis works as a firefighter. They live separate lives, though they are hardly off each other’s minds. When Sam gets accepted into college and the pair help him move in together, Ellis convinces Wren to take an extended road trip back to Spunes with him to see if they can give their relationship one last chance. Amid the gorgeous scenery of the California coastline, dreamy destinations, and a great deal of long-yearned-for proximity, Wren starts to think it just might be possible. But the two still have to contend with their tumultuous past in order to move forward. And when spoken words fail, sometimes the written word must bridge the gap. Will they make the most of what’s left of forever? Or will they let each other go for good? Brimming with big feelings and packed with steam, Left of Forever is bestseller Tarah DeWitt at the top of her game.

It’s a chance to revive her stalled career and compete for a coveted spot in an executive training program—plus, three weeks in paradise! The only downside? Rafe is her co-attendee. Tris plans to avoid Rafe entirely, but when she arrives in Maui, a booking error has them stuck sharing the honeymoon suite. Sure, it’s not all torture.

As they vie against each other during aptitude tests and team-building exercises, Tris begins to realize Rafe might not be the villain after all. With her dreams at stake, can she learn to trust the man who might have been standing in her corner all along?
