The Ghostwriter (2025)
Julie Clark
"In The Ghostwriter, Julie Clark peels back the painful layers of generational trauma in exquisite, chilling detail, to solve a long-unsolved double homicide. The Ghostwriter is a totally original, haunting literary thriller."
thumb
It's a Love Story (2025)
Annabel Monaghan
"Annabel Monaghan has a direct line to my heart - and my funny bone. With It's a Love Story, she's given us an enemies-to-lovers romcom that's SO MUCH MORE. This is dopamine in book form. And don't we all need that right now?"

Southern by Design (2025)
Grace Helena Walz
"With this Charleston-set debut novel SOUTHERN BY DESIGN, Grace Helena Walz has taken her place among such treasured Southern novelists as Dorothea Benton and Anne Rivers Siddons. Her stories and her voice is one readers are bound to adore."
