- Realm of ash / by Suri, Tasha,author.;
"A spellbinding fantasy novel set in the Mughal India-inspired world of Empire of Sand, perfect for readers of City of Brass and The Wrath & the Dawn. Some believe the Ambhan Empire is cursed. But Arwa doesn't simply believe it -- she knows it's true. Widowed by the infamous, unnatural massacre at Darez Fort, Arwa was saved only by the strangeness of her blood -- a strangeness she had been taught all her life to suppress. She offers up her blood and service to the imperial family, and makes common cause with a disgraced, illegitimate prince who has turned to forbidden occult arts to find a cure to the darkness hanging over the Empire. Using the power in Arwa's blood, they seek answers in the realm of ash: a land where mortals can find the ghostly echoes of their ancestors' dreams. But the Emperor's health is failing, and a terrible war of succession hovers on the horizon, not just for the Imperial throne, but for the magic underpinning Empire itself. To save the Empire, Arwa and the prince must walk the bloody path of their shared past, through the realm of ash and into the desert, where the cause of the Empire's suffering -- and its only chance of salvation -- lie in wait. But what they find there calls into question everything they've ever valued ... and whether they want to save the Empire at all"--- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Widows; Magic; Outcasts; Illegitimacy;

- Wild hope : a novel / by Thomas, Joan(Sandra Joan),author.;
"Isla, a chef and co-owner of a farm-to-table restaurant on the brink of closing, and Jake, a visual artist tormented by the oil-and-gas legacy of his late father, are a couple drifting apart. A looming figure in both their lives is Reg Bevaqua, Jake's childhood friend turned enemy turned bottled water baron. Reg is a demanding regular at Isla's restaurant and a man with a seething resentment toward Jake. With good reason the feeling is mutual, but Jake keeps their past from Isla as he follows a devastating trail to the source of Reg's wealth. When Jake disappears following a winter camping trip, Isla starts to connect the dots, with all roads leading to Reg and his magnificent island property on Georgian Bay. Seamlessly weaving in observations on the entitlements of the wealthy, the monetization of water, and the politics of art, Joan Thomas has created a layered, page-turning read about how far we will go to hold on to power and what we will do to avenge old wounds."--- Subjects: Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Control (Psychology); Cooks; Married people; Missing persons;

When that dream crashed, she turned to stealing from rich kids in L.A. alongside her wily Irish boyfriend, Lachlan.

But when her mom gets sick, Nina puts everything on the line to help her, even if it means running her most audacious, dangerous scam yet. Vanessa is a privileged young heiress who wanted to make her mark in the world. Instead she becomes an Instagram influencer--traveling the globe, receiving free clothes and products, and posing for pictures in exotic locales. But behind the covetable façade is a life marked by tragedy. After a broken engagement, Vanessa retreats to her family's sprawling mountain estate, Stonehaven: A mansion of dark secrets not just from Vanessa's past, but from that of a lost and troubled girl named Nina.

- Reasonable adults : a novel / by Lefler, Robin,author.;
A swanky new gig at a luxury artists' retreat in Muskoka, a delightful canine companion and a chance at a clean start. It should be smooth sailing from here ... Everything has fallen apart for Kate Rigsby: she is freshly single--separated from an ex she never really liked--and freshly fired--from a job she never really liked, either. Somehow, she's reached the age of thirty-one and the only things she truly cares about are her goldendoodle, Eric, her two best friends, and proving to her parents (and, if she's honest, to herself) that she made the right choice moving to the city. Except, instead of thriving, she finds that her life has taken a nose-dive. So when a job at Treetops Creative Retreat suddenly lands in her lap, she's thrilled. Three months at a glorified arts and crafts workshop for grown-ups that boasts five-star cuisine and a helipad, and she'll be well paid? The perfect escape. So what if her contract spans the depths of winter? Neat! A charming life experience! She can learn to snowshoe. But when Kate arrives at the retreat, nothing is as she imagined. She didn't read the fine print, her targets are impossible, her boss seems committed to seeing her fail and there happens to be an extremely off-limits fellow staffer who has no business being so gorgeous. Part self-discovery, part rom-com and part comedy of errors, Reasonable Adults is a hilarious debut about finding yourself--and maybe love--along the way. A little summer-camp romance never hurt anyone, right?- Subjects: Romance fiction.; Novels.; Dogs; Man-woman relationships; Single women;
