- Falling for London : a cautionary tale / by Mallen, Sean,author.;
- "A posting in London - it seemed like the perfect position. But the reality was far from perfect. It was more like the crumbling ceiling in his overpriced, crappy London flat. A veteran award-winning journalist for Global TV News, Sean Mallen was thrilled to be appointed Europe Bureau Chief. He was given three weeks to move to London to cover the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, and he had to be prepared to travel the world to report on fascinating news events. One catch: his family said no. His tearful wife and six-year-old daughter warned him that they couldn't move to another country and that he would have to give up the chance of a lifetime. Falling for London is the story of how he convinced them to go, how they learned to live in and love the world's greatest (and ruinously expensive) city, and how his dream came true in ways he could have never expected."--

Inevitably, the willful and wounded Lulu falls in love. Then Nassau's wealthiest man is murdered in one of the most notorious cases of the century, and the resulting coverup reeks of royal privilege. Benedict Thorpe disappears without a trace, and Lulu embarks on a journey to London and beyond to unpick Thorpe's complicated family history.

- The cure for drowning / by Paylor, Loghan,author.;
- "Evocative, magical and luminously written, The Cure for Drowning is not only a brilliant, boundary-pushing love story but a Canadian historical novel that boldly centres queer and non-binary characters in unprecedented ways. Born Kathleen to an immigrant Irish farming family in southern Ontario, Kit McNair has been a troublesome changeling since, at ten, they fell through the river ice and drowned--only to be nursed back to life by their mother's Celtic magic. A daredevil in boy's clothes, Kit chafes at every aspect of a farmgirl's life, driving that same mother to distraction with worry about where Kit will ever fit in. When Rebekah Kromer, an elegant German-Canadian doctor's daughter, moves to town with her parents in April 1939, Rebekah has no doubt as to who 19-year-old Kit is. Soon she and Kit, and Kit's older brother, Landon, are drawn tight in a love triangle that will tear them and their families apart, and send each of them off on a separate path to war. Landon signs up for the Navy. Kit, now known as Christopher, joins the Royal Air Force, becoming a bomber navigator relied on for his luck and courage. Rebekah serves with naval intelligence in Halifax, until one more collision with Landon changes the course of her life and draws her back to the McNair farm--a place where she'd once known love. Fallen on even harder times, the McNairs welcome all the help she is able to give, and she believes she has found peace at last. Until, with the war over, Kit and Landon return home. Told in the vivid, unforgettable voices of Kit and Rebekah, The Cure for Drowning is a powerfully engrossing novel that imagines a history that is truer than true."--

- The half king / by Landers, Melissa,author.;
- "The Great Betrayal changed everything for the Allied Realm. Long ago, the kingdom's noble houses rose up against the goddess ... and for their treachery, the firstborn of each noble family was cursed. One with perilous beauty. One with destructive knowledge. One with insatiable bloodlust. But the royal house Mortara received the worst affliction of all. For while the king exists during the day, he fades into nothingness at night ... until his twenty-first birthday, when he will be lost to the shadows forever. Now an acolyte has arrived at court. Like all the second-born children of the Allied Realm, she's destined to serve the goddess and become a Seer ... only Cerise Solon has no gift of foretelling. In fact, she has no magical gift at all. Instead, she's surrounded by courtiers and priests--smiling sycophants whose hearts are filled with secrets and lies. And at the center of it all sits His Majesty Kian Hannibal Mortara, with his haunting eyes, sharp tongue, and an unerring ability to send her pulse skittering at the worst possible moments. Falling for him is unthinkable. Because the king is the last of his line, and as the specter of his twenty-first birthday--and the full force of his curse--approaches, the kingdom holds its breath. But there's only one way to save a dying king ... and it lies with the one person who's hiding the biggest secret of all. Cerise."--
