The author of New York Times bestseller and Reese's Book Club pick Lucky returns with a spellbinding story of rock 'n' roll and star-crossed love—about grunge-era musician Jane Pyre's journey to find out what really happened to her husband and partner in music, who abruptly disappeared years earlier.
He was the troubled face of rock 'n' roll...until he suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Jane Pyre was once half of the famous rock n' roll duo, the Lightning Bottles. Years later, she's perhaps the most hated—and least understood—woman in music. She was never as popular with fans as her bandmate (and soulmate), Elijah Hart—even if Jane was the one who wrote the songs that catapulted the Lightning Bottles to instant, dizzying fame, first in the Seattle grunge scene, then around the world.

But ever since Elijah disappeared five years earlier and the band's meteoric rise to fame came crashing down, the public hatred of Jane has taken on new levels, and all she wants to do is retreat. What she doesn't anticipate is the bombshell that awaits her at her new home in the German countryside: the sullen teenaged girl next door—a Lightning Bottles superfan—who claims to have proof that not only is Elijah still alive, he's also been leaving secret messages for Jane. And they need to find them right away.

A cross-continent road trip about two misunderstood outsiders brought together by their shared love of music, The Lightning Bottles is both a love letter to the 90s and a searing portrait of the cost of fame.]]>https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10480695https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10480695Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/10480695980EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668015254/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C3584976https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C3584976Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3584976192BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781501188046/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=*INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER*

"The most festive book you'll read this year."—Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After and Meet Me at the Lake
From two bestselling Canadian authors comes a multi-faith holiday rom-com about the delightful havoc that occurs when Christmas, Ramadan, and Hanukkah all fall at the same time, and two strangers-turned-friends are snowbound in the small, charming town of Snow Falls along with the cast and crew of a holiday romance movie, nosy family members, and their lifelong crushes.
Three times the holiday magic. Three times the chaos.
As strangers and seatmates Maryam Aziz and Anna Gibson fly to Toronto over the holidays—Maryam to her sister’s impromptu wedding, and Anna to meet her boyfriend’s wealthy family for the first time—neither expect that severe turbulence will scare them into confessing their deepest hopes and fears to one another. At least they’ll never see each other again. And the love of Maryam’s life, Saif, wasn’t sitting two rows behind them hearing it all. Oops.
An emergency landing finds Anna, Saif, Maryam, and her sister’s entire bridal party snowbound at the quirky Snow Falls Inn in a picture-perfect town, where fate has Anna’s actor-crush filming a holiday romance. As Maryam finds the courage to open her heart to Saif, and Anna feels the magic of being snowbound with an unexpected new love—both women soon realize there’s no place they’d rather be for the holidays.]]>https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9538456https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9538456Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/9538456980EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735246454/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=From the bestselling author of Reese's Book Club Pick Lucky comes a gripping novel about marriage, loyalty, and the deadly secrets that unravel over the course of a two-week couples' therapy retreat in Mexico.
We all have thirteen secrets. Five stay buried forever, but the rest will be revealed.

Miles Markell is missing, and everyone is a suspect.

To the guests at The Harmony Resort, Doctors Miles and Grace Markell appear to be a perfect power couple. They run a couples' therapy retreat in a luxurious resort in the Mayan Riviera where they help spouses deal with their marriage struggles.

Johanna and Ben's relationship looks great on the surface, but in reality, they don't know each other at all. Shell and Colin fight constantly—Colin is a workaholic, and Shell always comes second—but what has really torn them apart is too devastating to talk about. When both couples begin Harmony's intensive therapy program, it becomes clear that Harmony is not all that it seems—and neither are Miles and Grace. What are they hiding, and what price will these couples pay for finding out their secrets?

As a powerful hurricane descends on the coast, trapping both the hosts and their guests, confidences are revealed, loyalties are tested, and not one single person—or marriage—will ever be the same.

A gripping exploration of relationships and trust, The Last Resort is a propulsive read about all the big truths we hide, even from ourselves.]]>https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C4766781https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C4766781Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4766781980EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781501188084/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4360862https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4360862Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4360862192BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668002452/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=SOON TO BE AN APPLE LIMITED SERIES STARRING ANYA TAYLOR-JOY, STREAMING JULY 2026

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A thrilling roller-coaster ride about a heist gone terribly wrong, with a plucky protagonist who will win readers' hearts.
What if you had the winning ticket that would change your life forever, but you couldn't cash it in?

Lucky Armstrong is a tough, talented grifter who has just pulled off a million-dollar heist with her boyfriend, Cary. She's ready to start a brand-new life, with a new identity—when things go sideways. Lucky finds herself alone for the first time, navigating the world without the help of either her father or her boyfriend, the two figures from whom she's learned the art of the scam.

When she discovers that a lottery ticket she bought on a whim is worth millions, her elation is tempered by one big problem: cashing in the winning ticket means she'll be arrested for her crimes. She'll go to prison, with no chance to redeem her fortune.

As Lucky tries to avoid capture and make a future for herself, she must confront her past by reconciling with her father; finding her mother, who abandoned her when she was just a baby; and coming to terms with the man she thought she loved—whose dark past is catching up with her, too.

This is a novel about truth, personal redemption, and the complexity of being good. It introduces a singularly gifted, multilayered character who must learn what it means to be independent and honest...before her luck runs out.]]>https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C5605987https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C5605987Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5605987980EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781982157500/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C3283180https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C3283180Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3283180192BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781501131868/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

Set in a small Canadian river town where long-held secrets linger, it's perfect for fans of Carley Fortune and These Summer Storms.
When the past resurfaces, can love survive the truth?

Mae Summers and Gabe Broadbent grew up together at Summers' Inn, perched on the edge of the St. Lawrence River. Orphaned at six, Mae was raised by her grandparents, Lilly and George, alongside Gabe, who needed refuge from his alcoholic father. What began as childhood companionship deepened into first love — until Gabe's sudden departure fractured their shared world.

More than a decade later, Mae is pulled back to Gananoque after her carefully constructed life in Toronto collapses. She returns expecting comfort but instead finds her grandparents faltering and long-suppressed family secrets beginning to emerge. As Mae confronts the tangled legacy of love, betrayal, and sacrifice that has shaped her family, the reappearance of Gabe forces her to face a past that was never as simple as she believed, and a history she has never been able to leave behind.

This multi-generational story of loss and inheritance explores the ways family binds and shapes us, the enduring pull of home, and the cost — and necessity — of being brave enough to reckon with the past.]]>https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C3022548https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C3022548Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3022548980EBOOKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781501131899/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4531791https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4531791Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4531791192BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735246447/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5455606https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5455606Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5455606192BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781037802119/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4420832https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4420832Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4420832192BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735241152/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4900429https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4900429Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4900429192BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735248120/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4720713https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4720713Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4720713192BKA Novelenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735248090/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4446585https://georgina.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4446585Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://georgina.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4446585192BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735241121/MC.GIF&client=ontlibconbib&type=xw12&oclc=
