So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have 11 days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded Beiderman just how wonderful they are. And all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home. A modern classic in the making reminiscent of the Penderwicks series.

Amateur ghost hunters Perry Palomino and Dex Foray embark on their most terrifying investigation yet. Now a functioning campground, Perry and Dex spend an isolated weekend on a tiny, fog-shrouded island to investigate potential hauntings - but as the duo quickly find out, there is more to fear on D'Arcy Island than just ghosts. The island quickly pits partner against partner, spiraling the pair into madness that serves to destroy their sanity, their relationship, and their very lives.

Death. It's something that Ada Palomino has always known so well, having grown up in a house of horrors, surrounded by a family plagued by ghosts and demons and things that go bump in the night. But after the sudden and tragic death of her mother two years ago, death has never felt so personal. Or so close.

Everyone wants to be the sexy Brit's girlfriend, but he gets bored and moves on quickly. There's only one way to figure out why neither of them has cracked this love thing - they'll date each other.

"Stina vaknade av ett kras. Hon slog upp ögonen och stirrade ut i mörkret. Det var glas som krossades och den här gången lät det inte som om någon krossade fönstren till stallet utan att ljudet kom från en plats en bit undan. Hon la handen runt handtaget på en spade och öppnade långsamt dörren. Den här gången skulle han inte komma undan." Efter att kattföreningen Stjärnan länge och väl har letat efter en plats att ha sitt katthem på blir Stina och de andra medlemmarna överlyckliga när de hittar ett gammalt stall utanför Sunne.

I Caracas i Venezuela står Adelaida Falcón over sin mors grav og må sige farvel. Adelaida efterlades i en overvældende ensomhed og sorg midt i et land, hun ikke længere kan kende: Hendes barndoms stabile og blomstrende Venezuela er nu præget af en brutal og blodig revolution. Revolutionens børn er klar til at tage de allermest rå metoder i brug - og inden Adelaida ser sig om, har hun ikke bare mistet sin mor, men alt, hvad hun ejede.

Todo ocurre en una frontera, la que separa la sierra oriental de la occidental. Angustias Romero huye de la peste con su marido y sus dos hijos atados a la espalda. Los gemelos, sietemesinos, mueren en el trayecto, y, tras guardarlos en sendas cajas de zapatos, el matrimonio se dirige a enterrarlos en El Tercer País, el cementerio ilegal regentado por la mítica Visitación Salazar.

Adelaida Falcón, una maestra caraqueña, fallece tras una larga enfermedad. Su hija Adelaida, de treinta y ocho años, no tiene a nadie y vive en una ciudad donde la violencia marca el ritmo diario de la existencia. Poco tiempo después del entierro, encuentra su casa tomada por un grupo de mujeres a las órdenes de la Mariscala. Llama a la puerta de su vecina sin hallar respuesta: Aurora Peralta, a quien todos llaman «la hija de la española», ha muerto. En la mesa del salón, una carta le comunica la concesión del pasaporte español: un salvoconducto para huir del infierno.

The Riviera means indulgence - if you’ve got money. For Sadie Reynolds, a down-on-her-luck student, the Riviera means dingy hostels and back streets. When a wrong turn puts her in jeopardy, the last thing she expects is to be saved by the most handsome stranger she’s ever locked eyes with. When she later wakes up in a luxury suite with a Mediterranean view, she’s in the tender care of her rescuer: Olivier Dumont, France’s most eligible bachelor, billionaire hotelier, and heir to the Dumont fashion fortune.

A widowed father of two little girls. The beautiful nanny he's hired to raise them. A forbidden romance unlike any other. When I first applied for the job I thought it would be like all the others: working as a nanny for an aristocratic family. Then I got the job and found out how wrong I was. Now I'm the new nanny for two adorable little girls who happen to be princesses. Their father is the widowed King of Denmark. And my new home? The royal palace in Copenhagen. Adjusting to my new life isn't easy but the hardest part hasn't been the girls who still grieve over their mother's death.

In the Dumont fashion empire, no heir has a reputation as decadent, arrogant, and ruthless as that of Pascal Dumont. Every transgression, an indecent pleasure. Every woman, a conquest. And none is more challenging than his new personal assistant, Gabrielle Caron. She's defiant, alluring, and a mystery Pascal can't wait to solve.

Seraphine Dumont seems to have it all: she’s gorgeous, brilliant, and part of one of France’s most illustrious dynasties. But underneath the facade, Seraphine struggles to hold it all together. Besides grieving her adoptive father’s suspicious and sudden death, she also shares a tenuous role in the family business with Blaise, her in-name-only cousin. As tumultuous as their history is, he may be the only member of the deceptive Dumont family she can trust.
