Found Time: An 831 Stories Romance Audiobook

"In the vibrant landscape of 1990s New York, Found Time weaves a poignant second chance narrative of midlife romance and family dynamics. In 1993, Lili and Reid lock eyes across the room at a Jeff Buckley show at Sin-é in New York's East Village, and their connection is kinetic. After spending a week together closing down dives and crashing at Lili's shoebox-sized apartment on Avenue A, Reid settles back home in LA, and they lose touch—cell phones and emails don't exist, after all. Thirty years later, Sin-é is reopening for a one-night-only tribute show for the late Jeff Buckley. Driven by memories of the past, Lili and Reid, now both single parents, decide to go—each dragging along Gen Z daughters along with them. When Lili and Reid spot each other across the room yet again, it feels like no time has passed. But can their romance withstand the demands of midlife and complicated family dynamics, or is it best left as a memory?"

Ruinous Creatures: A Novel

"For fans of One Dark Window and T. Kingfisher, comes a standalone romantasy debut about a woman who accidentally awakens the power to siphon magic from two phoenix skulls, binding her fate to a vengeful stranger and forcing them to navigate the devastating cost of their unbreakable bond. In a sanctuary for magical creatures hidden deep within a valley, magic is born from the bones of extraordinary creatures. For generations, a privileged few have siphoned this magic by wearing the skulls of these creatures and wielding their power. Adela spends her days meticulously preparing these skulls to be matched, ensuring the magic endures and the valley sustains. But when she discovers two phoenix skulls—creatures she had believed only legend—she can't resist the pull of their dormant magic. Defying the warnings of her mentor, Adela awakens the skulls, unleashing a shockwave of power that throws the valley into chaos. Meanwhile, determined novitiate Kian prepares for the upcoming matching ceremony, but harbors a secret: he is only participating in order to destroy the magic of the skulls to avenge the death of his parents at the hands of this tradition of power. As Adela and Kian's fates intertwine in the matching hut, the connection between them grows deeper and the power of the phoenix skulls grows louder. An impulsive kiss seals their fate—to each other and each to one of the phoenix skull masks. As they grapple with the consequences of their powerful new magic, their fated connection becomes the key to either the valley's salvation or its ultimate collapse."

River of Bones and Other Stories

"A stunning collection of award-winning fantasy and science fiction short stories from the New York Times bestselling author of the Between Earth and Sky trilogy—including a new novella set in the world of Trail of Lightning. Rebecca Roanhorse's first publication, "Welcome to Your Authentic Indian Experience™", was awarded both the Nebula and Hugo award for best short story, and on its strength, Roanhorse was awarded the Astounding Award for Best New Writer. Although Roanhorse began to publish novels including Trail of Lightning and Black Sun, she has continued to write piercing stories that examine the American experience through marginalized perspectives. "River of Bones" returns to the Sixth World series with a novella, this time from Kai's perspective, as he and Maggie travel back to where he grew up to save his ex from the people who almost beat him to death—his ex's family. Based on the Tewa fable of Deer Hunter and White Corn Maiden, "A Brief Lesson in Native American Astronomy"—winner of the 2019 Ignyte award—explores the tradition of celestial-based storytelling, set in a future where virtual reality is nearly indistinguishable from the real world and celebrities can project their images into space as literal stars. "Falling Bodies" follows a young student at a space station university caught between two disparate worlds—the one he currently inhabits and the one he has desperately tried to escape—as he searches for his place in the universe. First published in Jordan Peele's Out There Screaming, "Eye and Tooth" is a story of black horror about the hunters who hunt the monsters and the monstrous among us. Through a range of contemporary to outright fantasy and science fiction, these stories will immediately capture your attention from one of our premiere writers of speculative fiction whose work is always at the vanguard of American fiction."

Atlas and the Traitor

"I was supposed to bring balance. That's what my name—Atlas—means. It feels more like being torn apart. Between good and evil, Nature and Chaos. Always running after or from something. Including a certain coyote shifter who wants to rip me limb from limb. I'd rather he shred my kilt and do other things to me. But alas, shouldering fate keeps getting in the way. Or maybe I've got it all wrong. Maybe he's the only path to balance, to the future. An end to the running. But we'd have to trust each other first. I'd rather tear myself apart than ever do that. Atlas and the Traitor is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers M/M paranormal romance between a grumpy coyote shifter and an even grumpier warlock fated to run toward each other. It is book three of the Soul to Find series and is best enjoyed after the prior books in the series. Contains mature themes."

The Book Tour: A Novel

"Sparks fly between a lively debut author and her grumpy publicist on book tour in this sizzling rom-com from a fresh new voice in contemporary romance. Despite her popular podcast and sold-out speaking events, Ana Movilian still feels like she has to prove herself. To her family, who can't believe she quit med school to build an influencer career, and to literary snobs, who decry her buzzy self-help book. Happily, her upcoming book tour is the perfect chance to show the world just how bright her star can shine. That is, until her beloved publicist resigns the night before their plane is set to take off, announcing that her replacement is none other than Ryan bleeping Grant. Ryan specializes in highbrow, 'important' books, and his perma-scowl in every interaction with Ana makes one thing clear: he does not get her book. Or her. He's the last person who should be promoting her work, the last person she should be stuck with for two weeks . . . and the last person who should look that damn good in business casual. As they travel from city to city, however, Ana's assumptions about Ryan take new shape. A decidedly more appealing shape. Soon, their growing attraction starts to feel like a ticking time bomb. But crossing that line could derail each of their careers faster than you can say 'conflict of interest,' and they both have bigger dreams at stake than the bestseller list."
