A teen girl, backed by a secret society of powerful women, competes to make an 18-year-old future President fall in love with her in Sheena Boekweg's compelling new YA novel, A Sisterhood of Secret Ambitions. Behind every powerful man is a trained woman, and behind every trained woman is the Society. It started with tea parties and matchmaking, but is now a countrywide secret. Gossips pass messages in recipes, Spinsters train to fight, and women work together to grant safety to abused women and children. The Society is more than oaths—it is sisterhood and purpose. In 1926, seventeen-year-old Elsie is dropped off in a new city with four other teenage girls. All of them have trained together since childhood to become the Wife of a powerful man. But when they learn that their next target is earmarked to become President, their mission becomes more than just an assignment; this is a chance at the most powerful position in the Society. A life more influential than they had ever before dared to dream possible. All they have to do is make one man fall in love with them first.

A five-hundred-year-old passion simmers on… As far as Angelo could figure, it must have been the sight of the orphaned baby that caused Isobel Avedon, his one true love, to turn irrevocably mortal. Isobel had always wanted a baby…his baby. During the half millenium that Isobel and Angelo had been separated, they hadn't once been tempted by sins of the flesh. But then, they'd both been angels. Now Isobel was mortal, and pent-up passion returned with a vengeance. Vengeance was apparently still on the killer's mind, too. Though Angelo should have assigned another halo to protect the baby and surrogate mom, he could trust no one with Isobel's life. He'd let her down once before and they'd both been murdered. He wasn't about to lost sight of her again. AVENGING ANGELS The sexiest angels this side of heaven!

Once upon a time, iron kept the fae from wandering the world. But over the millennia, iron gave way to steel, and now the fae are unbound… Welcome to the Court of the Steel-Born Fae. Yearning to be free, Olette has fled the idleness and illusions of the fae court to hide in the sunlit realm of humans. When the dark warriors of the Wild Hunt find her—and they will, because the black-winged shadows always find their prey—she will face the fae queen's wrath. But until the hunters come and clip her sylfana wings, she will seize this moment to indulge the real emotions of world beyond the walls she’s always known. After a chance encounter with a seductively handsome stranger, Olette longs to embrace the earthly passions within her, if only for one night. Vaile’s dark eyes might see through her disguise and his tantalizing touch could make her forget her vow to keep running as long as she can. Because it seems there are deeper dangers than she knew. In the ages since the end of the Iron Wars, the Court of the Steel-Born Fae has grown restless, the queen’s power to hold them within wearing thin, and the sunlit realm has forgotten the old charms that once kept the oblivious human folk safe from the shadows. Olette might risk even her freedom for Vaile’s love, but when the Wild Hunt closes in, she has to wonder: has she fallen for a man—or beautiful lie? *Originally published as Dark Hunter’s Touch by Jessa Slade For readers who enjoy: Paranormal fantasy romance of fairy-tale happily ever afters, shorter novella length stories of fey royalty with magic, spells, charms, and enchantments, plus dark wounded warrior heroes and strong heroines.
