“A wonderful, gripping mix of passion, exotic, futuristic settings, and edgy suspense.”—Jayne Castle In HeartMate, Robin D. Owens swept us away to the planet Celta, where psychic talents are the key to life—and love! Midwest Book Review predicted that “readers will want Ms. Owens to return to Celta for more tales.” And the prophesy has come true—with Heart Thief… Ruis Elder never asked for his unusual trait—the ability to neutralize others’ psychic talent. Because of it, he has always been hated in his own homeland, destined to roam the harsh planet alone. But trouble finds him in front of the ruling Council—and face-to-face with the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. There’s only one problem: Ailim is on the opposite side of the bench… Ailim has never before felt such passion coursing through her as she feels in Ruis’s presence. And she never thought she would—at least not with a man so far beneath her station, a man who does not even have psychic powers. But even on the planet Celta, love is blind to such details. Separately, Ailim and Ruis must forgo their old lives. But together, they can take on the world…

Ezra Keene is an artistic sixteen year-old who wants nothing more than to settle in at his new school and put the tragedy of his brother's death behind him. He awakens one night, reeling from a hazy dream, to find his fingers blackened with pencil lead and a new drawing in his sketchbook-a drawing that depicts the grisly murder of someone he knows. The next morning he is shocked to learn the picture has become a reality. Ezra has reason to believe the father of a classmate, an eccentric German scientist, is somehow involved in the slaying, but he needs something tangible to bring to the police. He sets out to discover the truth, but what he finds instead is that something much more sinister than murder lies at the heart of this mystery. Monsters exist, magic is real, and sometimes there are worse things than death.

REX I know what it’s like to live on the dark side of that pretty line between black and white. Retirement from the assassin’s life doesn’t change that. These hands have seen too much violence to ever wash them clean. How ironic that I’m afraid of blood. All I want now is a normal life, and I’ve got plenty of cash to make it happen… But I have no clue what “normal” is supposed to look like, and I’m running out of time. The girl whose life I destroyed—the only girl I’ve ever cared for—is the one bright side to my life these days. Maybe that’s why I haven’t put a stop to her desperate campaign for revenge. Or maybe I just like watching my beautiful good-girl-with-a-vengeance try to play bad… MASON For the past ten years, my only goal has been to take down the man who stole my brother’s heart, in the most literal sense, but all my brilliant plans tend to turn out more like bad pranks. When I snag a job at my enemy’s world famous research facility, I’m sure this is the chance I’ve been waiting for. But nothing is as it seems in Rex’s strange world, and I quickly start to question everything I’ve spent the past decade believing. Now my conflicting feelings threaten to unravel everything. Will I finally get my revenge, or will my heart be the next one Rex steals—this time with a kiss? HEART THIEF is an enemies-to-lovers romantic suspense. It is the first book in a series about a team of ex-assassins and their hunt for a normal life while their old one still has them in its clutches. They will keep you at the edge of your seat and grip your emotions as they try to put their scarred past behind them. But they will also catch you laughing in the most inappropriate situations, as situations often are when they include people who know how to kill in a number of ways. Each book in the series will feature a new member of their band of ex-assassins and has a HEA. They can be read as standalones but I promise you won’t want to miss even a second!

The first book to put the sacred and sensuous bronze statues from India’s Chola dynasty in social context From the ninth through the thirteenth century, the Chola dynasty of southern India produced thousands of statues of Hindu deities, whose physical perfection was meant to reflect spiritual beauty and divine transcendence. During festivals, these bronze sculptures—including Shiva, referred to in a saintly vision as “the thief who stole my heart”—were adorned with jewels and flowers and paraded through towns as active participants in Chola worship. In this richly illustrated book, leading art historian Vidya Dehejia introduces the bronzes within the full context of Chola history, culture, and religion. In doing so, she brings the bronzes and Chola society to life before our very eyes. Dehejia presents the bronzes as material objects that interacted in meaningful ways with the people and practices of their era. Describing the role of the statues in everyday activities, she reveals not only the importance of the bronzes for the empire, but also little-known facets of Chola life. She considers the source of the copper and jewels used for the deities, proposing that the need for such resources may have influenced the Chola empire’s political engagement with Sri Lanka. She also investigates the role of women patrons in bronze commissions and discusses the vast public records, many appearing here in translation for the first time, inscribed on temple walls. From the Cholas’ religious customs to their agriculture, politics, and even food, The Thief Who Stole My Heart offers an expansive and complete immersion in a community still accessible to us through its exquisite sacred art.

Hurt people hurt people. Say there was a novel in which Holden Caulfield was an alcoholic and Lolita was a photographer’s assistant and, somehow, they met in Bright Lights, Big City. He’s blinded by love. She by ambition. Diary of an Oxygen Thief is an honest, hilarious, and heartrending novel, but above all, a very realistic account of what we do to each other and what we allow to have done to us.
