Raised by my assassin father to follow in his footsteps, this is the only life I know. I may be a killer, but I have morals—standards—and a line I won’t cross.
I only hunt those who are truly evil. The kingpins, the warlords, the traffickers. There are sick people in this world, people who don’t deserve to walk this earth.
But I don’t work alone. I have a small team that helps me get the job done and leave no trace behind. And they help with some other, more personal things, when there isn’t a mark to take out.
When my team and I are hired to remove Thiago Dellamorte, something feels… off. It’s not until I observe him that I discover the truth. Thiago Dellamorte is one of the good guys, and I have been duped.
Teaming up with him to take out the man who wants him dead should have been an easy job, but one look into his ebony eyes, and I knew I was in trouble. Will this Italian Stallion become a permanent fixture on our team—and in my bed—or will he walk away when the blood stops flowing, shredding my heart as he goes?
My house is a mausoleum no living person should ever have to survive in, but I do, hour after hour and year after year. Every day is always the same. I wake up, have a cup of coffee, and place whatever small glass trinket that caught my fancy the evening before on the shelves that line the walls. I do this with the same consistency that other people send good morning texts to someone they love.
When it all started, I had been spending my evenings immersed in the small things my mother had left behind, in particular her collection of perfume bottles, whimsical animals, and antique glasses. Every day, I would choose one and think that I could start a collection of my own, so I had the shelves installed. Over time, there was nothing left of my mother’s possessions, so I found new and beautiful things to add from small stores, art galleries, or trash bins throughout each day.
Eventually, there was no room for other decorations in my apartment. There were no books or photos, only small objects that were so beautiful to me that they seemed to come from another world. They all sat there collecting dust as I did on the subway when I went to work and came back every day without even the slightest variation.
Over time, I had grown accustomed to the screech of the tracks and the people selling sweets or asking for money, just as I had learned to tolerate the phones and endless chatting of my coworkers in the office. But in my house, there was nothing but the sound of silence and the strains of the world outside in the background. That was the way things were supposed to be: just me and everything breakable.
Sometimes people world try to get it, but I knew better than to let them. My door was padlocked, and the blackout curtains on my windows always stayed down. My home was everything I needed. It was warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It was the only place I could take my shoes off and feel my bare feet on the floor, the only place I could hear myself breathe. I always thought that I would stay there forever, as my mother had done before, until I, too, faded away into some final illness and turned into nothing.
But the city had other plans for me. I had become comfortable with my routines, and I never expected the change that came to be so brutal and sudden. It was my own fault. It was the middle of summer, and I had opened my bedroom window to let in some breeze, and I hadn’t closed it before leaving.
A storm started brewing during the day, and I watched it from the office without suspecting what it would mean for me. The winds were strong when I left for home, and by the time I opened the front door, the rain had started. I stepped inside and could immediately feel that something was different. Something was wrong.
A gust of air hit me hard in the chest, and I flicked on the light only to find all of the glass shelves and all of my precious collection shattered and broken on the floor. It didn’t matter anymore if the outside world got in, so I let the rain pelt in onto the rug and left the door open as I sank to my knees and clutched the broken shards to me even as they punctured my skin and I started to bleed. I heard myself breathe out in what was left of the silence, and then the tears I had never been able to shed came.
I lay on the ground with the destruction all around me and sobbed with every ounce of my being. I cried for my mother and the shadow of a person she had become. I cried for myself and the ghost I had turned into all those years I had closed myself away into a place only fit for mourning the dead.

So we often have friends releasing new books. And we love to recommend them. Here’s our book recommendations. We try to get it done every Saturday but we are busy so we may have missed a few.
Weeds and Stars By Lisa Rosenberg From the celestial to the ground beneath our feet, from supernovas and nebulas to dandelions and the beautiful mundanity of the everyday, Weed and Stars houses us in the living herbarium of its vibrant poetry.— Ariel Francisco Henriquez Cos, Judge, 2025 Hilary Tham Capital Collection PRE-ORDERS ONLY AT THIS TIME. RELEASE DATE IS APRIL 21.
About to Disappear by Robbi Nester About to Disappear is a poetry collection that explores the limits of ekphrasis; that is, descriptions and reflections on works of art in order to expand their meaning. The book is separated into four sections: Ex Nihilo, Adaptation, Law of Attraction, and Ad Nihilum. The first and final sections-translated as “from nothing, returning to nothing”-act as bookends. Ex Nihilo includes poems about imagination, optics, creation, and and development; while poems in the final section, Ad Nihilum, are about trauma, unmaking, climate change, and catastrophe. Poems in the middle sections are about artistic, psychological, and physical transformations, and natural history and community. Artworks included are from contemporary artists-as well as such artists as Vermeer, Grant Wood, John Singer Sargent, and Edward Hopper.
It’s Easy to Lose Your Breath by Kevin Risner Anchored by the first years of the Covid-19 pandemic, Kevin A. Risner’s debut full-length poetry collection It’s Easy to Lose Your Breath is both introspective and outward-facing, rippling from the poet’s inner life into family and friendships, work and unemployment, suburban life, and wildlife. The collection draws on daydreams and nightmares, small animals’ housecalls, and memories of childhood. Concerns about health and emotional well-being intermingle with the worries about what climate change will bring in a world hellbent on maintaining the capitalist status quo. Though not without that unbeatable Rust Belt hope, this is a collection that sits with the heavy weight of what the powers that be have done to the natural world and what it might take for ordinary people to survive in the years and decades to come. “It’s Easy to Lose Your Breath reflects on our collective quarantine year with a burgeoning hope in the face of dread’s drumbeat. It’s no surprise that Kevin A. Risner’s poems snap with a pulse from The National because both yearn for what could be (or for what could’ve been) amid bedraggled reality. ‘I’m the only human who weeps for this lone songbird,’ Risner writes, but his poetry connects us. We all feel, and weep, with Risner through his poems. With our hearts on our sleeves, we struggle as one with ‘[t]he knowledge that I can try my best and I might still fail.’ The year 2020 separated us, but It’s Easy to Lose Your Breath brings us together.” – Mitchell Nobis, author of The Size of the Horizon, or, I Explained Everything to the Trees
The Weather Inside by Stevie Edwards In The Weather Inside, Stevie Edwards measures the emotional atmosphere of a mind navigating bipolar disorder, complex PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, and alcoholism while forging intimacy and creative resilience in a rapidly declining world. Both as someone who has struggled with mental health and as a feminist approaching middle age, Edwards interrogates parenthood and marriage: What forms of nurturing survive when traditional roles and certainties do not? Can bringing children into a collapsing world still be an act of hope? When your partner does not want children, where should you divert your surfeit of love? The poet grieves, “I am chanting the name of a daughter / my husband doesn’t want / enough, the child I’ve spent years / not being sure I deserved.” This fiercely honest and intimate collection offers a vision of adulthood shaped by the capacity to inhabit an embattled inner world. With clarity and dark wit, Edwards probes the uneasy border between solitude and connection, asserting the relationship between caring for oneself and caring for the wider world.
Where is the Green? by Carolyn Donnell The author/artist has paired her original artwork with her poetry in a way that makes you wonder which inspired the other. She writes both structured and unstructured verse, some poems as short (and deep) as haiku and others that meander from thought to thought, taking you along with them. There’s even a shaped poem…no spoilers, I’ll let you discover the image in the words for yourself.
to where i began no foundation to stand on, always feel like the sand beneath my feet is going to give out; will i be falling through stars until i land in the right universe? i can't shake the feeling that this is the wrong one, no one seems to understand me here; and no one has ever loved me the way i needed to be loved— no one seems capable of appreciating me and all of my magic, perhaps i just need to let the sand be washed away; maybe the ocean can take me back to where i began and i can find my home and these restless bones of mine can find rest. -linda m. crate
I sit on the screened in porch As night falls This summer night I enjoy the song of the forest around me The crickets sing loudest The frogs are second But they are not as lovely As the symphony the crickets are singing

“The Fool Who Became a Queen”
They painted me with laughter I never meant to wear A jester in my own collapse, Dancing through their stare.
Each smile was a shield I forged From the wreckage of their rage, Each tear a silent monument To a war they’d never gauge.
They called me foolish, broken, and small, But they never learned the art Of sewing crowns from spider webs Or thrones from shattered heart.
I swallowed shame like bitter wine, Let poison teach me grace, And in the mirror of survival Found my own unyielding face.
Now see me Not their puppet, not their game, But a queen resurrected From the ashes of a name.
My scepter forged from memory, My crown of scars and flame They made a fool of me for years, But I’ve rewritten the acclaim.
Because the fool who learns to rise Is the monarch of her pain, And the thorns they left upon her path Have bloomed into her reign.
“Trapped to Freedom”
I lived inside a shadowed box, A prison sealed with cursed locks. They waged their war against me, forcing me in, at such a great cost.
Each whisper curled, a ghost of fear, A storm of pain that no one could hear. Hope was a flicker, far from my hand, Buried in darkness, sinking in sand.
I held my breath through endless nights, A captive to sorrow’s cruel delight. But a crack appeared, a breath of light, Splintered the chains that bound me tight.
From Pandora’s depths I found my way, Into the warmth of a brand-new day. Now I walk free, the air is mine, Carrying hope I thought I’d never find. The box behind me fades to dust, And in my heart, I bloom from rust.

Inspired by real historical mysteries, The Hidden Cipher is a work of fiction. It is not a historical account, and while it uses real locations and historical references as atmospheric backdrops, the narrative itself is entirely imagined.
When a forbidden Templar manuscript resurfaces after seven centuries, cryptologist Dr. Elena Voss is the first to recognize the symbols etched inside—and the deadly warning buried beneath them. What begins as a routine analysis pulls her into a conspiracy protected by silence, blood, and a hidden order determined to reclaim the cipher at any cost.
Readers of Dan Brown, Steve Berry, James Rollins, Simon Toyne, and Raymond Khoury will feel instantly at home in this pulse-pounding thriller that blends historical mystery with relentless modern danger. The Hidden Cipher explodes out of the gate with breakneck pacing, international intrigue, and a mystery carved into the bones of history.
Joined by covert operative Antoine Rousseau and researcher Liam Hayes, Elena follows a hidden lattice of encrypted symbols across Europe—through echoing cathedrals, forgotten monasteries, restricted archives, and the sealed chambers of Templar strongholds. Each revelation pulls them deeper into a silent war that has smoldered for centuries… and every step forward stirs enemies who have killed to keep this truth buried.
Because the cipher doesn’t just rewrite history— it reveals a truth powerful enough to end the human race.
In this electrifying, globe-spanning thriller, descend into a world of forgotten orders, encrypted manuscripts, and conspiracies guarded for seven hundred years. Until now…
Alone on their ranch, a family must battle hunger, violence, and the enemy sweeping through the countryside. The lights died in seconds. Now the rules are gone. On an isolated ranch, one family faces starvation, raiders, and the end of everything they knew.
But as iconic as their television personas are, relatively little inside knowledge has been revealed about Lewis herself and the life-changing moments that led her to the entertainment industry, and perhaps most importantly, to Lamb Chop.
Renowned as a performer, Lewis was equally accomplished in business. Operating in an era when women were largely left out of the conversation, she was one of the few women to run her own television production company. Whether it was singing, dancing, conducting, writing, drawing, or ventriloquism—a skill in which she was virtually unmatched—Lewis spent the entirety of her sixty-five years in pursuit of performative perfection. Constantly innovating and adapting to the needs of her audience and the market, Lewis extended the longevity of her career decade after decade. Her contributions—particularly the creation of Lamb Chop and her puppet pals—forever changed the history of children’s television.
Now, long after Lewis and Lamb Chop graced television with their final performance, Lewis’s daughter, Mallory, and author Nat Segaloff have set the record straight about the iconic pair in Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop: The Team That Changed Children’s Television. In this seminal biography, the authors pull the veritable wool from the eyes of audiences who adore the legendary entertainer to examine the joys, sorrows, triumphs, and sheer hard work that gave Lewis and Lamb Chop their enduring star power.
Random by Penn Jillette From Penn Jillette of the legendary magic duo Penn & Teller: a rollicking crime caper that will bend your mind like a spoon.
“Penn Jillette is an atheist, triple-goddamned lunatic, and his book is a glorious Las Vegas lunatic paean to chance and adventure—a page-turning, scabrous, hilarious ride into randomness.” —Neil Gaiman
“Jillette’s latest novel, Random, is about a young man who inherits his father’s crushing debt to a loan shark and turns to dice—and other dangerous measures—to dig himself out. That the dice bring him luck sends him a new philosophy of leaving decisions both big and small up to chance.” —New York Times
Two weeks before his twenty-first birthday, Las Vegas native Bobby Ingersoll finds out he’s inherited a crushing gambling debt from his scumbag father. The debt is owed to an even scummier bag named Fraser Ruphart who oversees his bottom-rung criminal empire from the classy-adjacent Trump International Hotel. Bobby’s prospects of paying off the note, which comes due the day he turns twenty-one, are about as dim as the sign on the hotel’s facade.
The two weeks pass in the blink of a (snake) eye, but before Bobby’s luck runs out, he stumbles upon enough cash to pay off Ruphart and change his family’s fortune. More importantly, he finds himself with a new, for lack of a better word, faith.
Bobby does not consign his big break to a “higher power”—what Penn Jillette hero ever could? Instead, he devises and devotes himself to Random, a philosophy where his life choices are based entirely on the roll of his “lucky” dice. What follows is a rollicking exploration into not so much what defines us as what divines us when we give over every decision—from what to eat to whom to marry to how or when to die—to the random fall of two numbered cubes.
Random combines the intellectual curiosity of Richard Dawkins with the humor and grit of an Elmore Leonard antihero. Jillette’s up-on-his-luck Ingersoll is the character we need to help us navigate the chaos of the post-truth era.

Dwarf: A Memoir by Tiffanie DiDonato (Author), Rennie Dyball (Author) “It’s okay with me if you picked up this book because you’re curious about what it’s like to live with dwarfism. But I hope that you’ll take away much more—about adapting to the world when it won’t adapt to you.”—from Dwarf
A memoir of grit and transformation for anyone who has been told something was impossible and then went on to do it anyway.
Tiffanie DiDonato was born with dwarfism. Her limbs were so short that she was not able to reach her own ears. She was also born with a serious case of optimism. She decided to undergo a series of painful bone-lengthening surgeries that gave her an unprecedented 14 inches of height—and the independence she never thought she’d have.
After her surgeries, Tiffanie was able to learn to drive, to live in the dorms during college, and to lead a normal life. She even made time to volunteer, writing to troops stationed abroad, and one of those Marine pen pals ultimately became her husband.
Dwarf is a moving and, at times, funny testament to the power of sheer determination, and has been compared to Andrew Solomon’s Far From the Tree.
The Crazy Walk: A Stroll With The Struggle by Debbie Dick The Crazy Walk discusses many aspects of mental health struggle from a person who has experienced each one. Psychotic breaks, medication, support systems, marching on, victimhood, PTSD, and other topics that I can all personally speak to. This is not a memoir. This is a voice for people who struggle with these issues. You may notice that the individual pieces are quite short. This is intentional. People who struggle with mental health issues often cannot read a whole book to gain something. I know, because I cannot, and I am not alone. With this in mind I crafted each page carefully. Each piece offers something different. I hope for The Crazy Walk to offer assistance to support systems by helping them understand what a loved one goes through. I hope that my work will help readers know they are not alone. That someone really does get it. This project is not about telling my story. If that were true, I would have written something entirely different. This project is about reaching out to others. Won’t you walk with me?
When Hurricane Katrina devastated the Mississippi Gulf Coast, entrepreneur Ron Ladner lost everything. But from the wreckage emerged something extraordinary: Shaggy’s, a restaurant that would become far more than a place to grab a burger. It became a symbol of hope, resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of a community determined to rise again.
In Shaggy’s Cheeseburgers, Ladner serves up a deeply personal story that’s equal parts memoir, business blueprint, and love letter to the Gulf Coast. With warmth, humor, and unflinching honesty, he reveals how a simple cheeseburger became the foundation for rebuilding not just a business, but an entire way of life.
This isn’t just another entrepreneur’s success story—it’s a masterclass in:
Turning catastrophic loss into opportunity to start over Building a business culture that puts people first Finding purpose through service to others The power of community in overcoming adversity Why the simplest pleasures often hold the deepest meaning
From childhood adventures on the Mississippi coast to the heart-wrenching aftermath of Katrina, from the first uncertain days of opening Shaggy’s to watching it become an iconic Gulf Coast restaurant, Ladner’s story will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the extraordinary power of ordinary moments.
Featuring candid testimonials from Shaggy’s team members and community members whose lives were touched by this remarkable restaurant, Shaggy’s Cheeseburgers reminds us that sometimes the most profound truths come wrapped in the simplest packages—like a perfectly crafted cheeseburger, shared with the people who matter most.
Perfect for readers who loved Kitchen Confidential, Shoe Dog, A Pirate Looks at Fifty, or anyone seeking inspiration about resilience, leadership, community, and finding joy in life’s simple pleasures.
