Féministes avant l'heure, les sorcières ont laissé en héritage leurs savoirs et leurs pouvoirs, autant de clés au service d'une féminité libre et puissante. Symbole subversif de la révolte féministe, la figure de la sorcière est aujourd'hui de retour, prête à questionner nos choix, notre rapport au monde, à la nature, au corps, à la rationalité, à la sexualité... Et ce qu'elle a à nous apprendre peut réellement changer nos vies. Loin du folklore et des clichés, les sorcières sont porteuses d'un savoir riche et multiple, qui dérange et bouscule l'ordre établi. Pourquoi les a-t-on massacrées au XVe siècle, pourquoi a-t-on cherché à les oublier ?

Ryan Sosa, grumpy former corporate accountant, has had it up to here with surprises. He didn’t see getting fired coming. And he certainly didn’t anticipate flying across the country to the world’s hippie-est, happiest, most annoying town to save his great-uncle from some mysterious emergency.

Raised in a household so filthy it was stomach-spilling, Vera involuntarily evolved into a neat freak. Upon discovering she and her disabled husband, Daniel, are expecting, she needs fast cash. Her obsession with cleanliness sprouts the concept that her skills can be put to use in a unique way. She takes a stab at the booming door-to-door vacuum sales business of 1988.

Hazel Hart was a successful romance novelist until a breakup drives her straight into writer’s block. Having failed (and failed some more) to deliver her new manuscript, she’s hiding from the world behind a wall of old takeout containers until her publisher lays down the law. If she misses her next deadline it’s The End. Desperate for inspiration, Hazel impulse-buys a historic home online and flees Manhattan to tiny Story Lake, PA. Upon her dramatic arrival—involving an incident with a bald eagle—she discovers the charm of her new home may have been slightly exaggerated.

Ma première histoire d'amour a connu une fin tragique. Ma deuxième a commencé avec son frère. Je n'étais pas censée être sur ce toit le jour de la Saint-Valentin. Pas plus que Kellan Marchetti, le monstre désigné de l'école. Quand nous nous sommes rencontrés, nous étions sur le point de mettre fin à nos vies. D'une manière ou d'une autre, les fils en lambeaux de nos tragédies se sont emmêlés et resserrés pour former un lien improbable.

Money can buy anything...and anyone. As the head of the Constantine family, I’m used to people bowing to my will. Cruel, rigid, unyielding—I’m all those things. When I discover the one woman who doesn’t wither under my gaze, but instead smiles right back at me, I’m intrigued. Ash Elliott needs cash, and I make her trade in crudeness and degradation for it. I crave her tears, her moans. I pay for each one, and every time, she comes back for more. When she challenges me with an offer of her own, I have to decide if I’m willing to give her far more than cold, hard cash.

Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup—a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin' hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice. He's exactly what I'm looking for. If only Wyatt wasn't also my best friend…I'm back in my hometown of Harstville, Texas for a few months while I wait for my dream job to start thousands of miles away. While I'm here, I hope to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.

Ceux que nous aimons sont parfois ceux qui nous font le plus mal. Lily Blossom Bloom n'a pas eu une enfance très facile, entre un père violent et une mère qu'elle trouve soumise, mais elle a su s'en sortir dans la vie et est à l'aube de réaliser son grand rêve : ouvrir, à Boston, une boutique de fleurs.

My entire life changed in an instant. One violent moment took my mother and destroyed me. I can't even remember it. All I know is…it was my fault. Now I'm entering senior year after hiding away from the world for as long as I could. The only distraction I have from the heavy weight of my scars is my best friend, Graham. He's been my rock through it all. When his cousin Atlas appears, my world suddenly tilts on its already unsteady axis. Everyone warns me to stay away from the star football player with a bad boy reputation and a chip on his shoulder.

He's the star hockey player, my brother's best friend, and the boy I've been in love with since I was 7. The problem? He wants nothing to do with me. The problem? He wants nothing to do with me. Then why does he sneak into my room when I have a nightmare? Get jealous when I go on a date? And has a tattoo of my birthday on his ribs? Lucas Knight's a lot of things. He's possessive, jealous and overprotective. And he just might be in love with me. Angst-filled, heartbreaking, and kick-your-feet-in-the-air-giddy-inducing.

Geraldine Borden has realized that there's one thing her bottomless wealth can't grant her: children. When an attempt to remedy her infertility fails, she's left with nothing but rage, jealousy, and a murderous idea. She aims to take a place that all children adore and transform it into a twisted arena of carnage. And while her true masterpiece is still under construction, she seeks to entertain herself with a crude prototype filled with barbaric backyard games. Several children from a small New England city have gone missing under mysterious circumstances.

Three low-income families have been given a handsome retainer to join Geraldine Borden for a day at her cliffside estate. All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades. But there’s a reason the structures in the bowels of her gothic castle have taken so long to develop—they were never meant to see the light of day.

I never could. I’ve fallen for him. Hopelessly. Irrevocably. But Winston isn’t a lover; he’s a business venture, a way for me to pay for college. A ticket out. He’s never pretended to be anything other than that. I can’t blame him for making me fall in love.
