After a lifetime of death and suffering, Aleksandr Vassiliev finally has everything he could ever want - the most important being someone to share his future with. Somehow a spoiled American named Roan gave Sasha a reason to see life could be more. Except, that's where the fairytale ends. He's not surprised Roan hasn't been the same since his attack, but with every day that passes, Sasha sees less and less of the boy he fell in love with. He would do anything to get his Solnyshko back, but old enemies from Sasha's past might end up costing him everything, even Roan.Roan Sinclair used to have it all. Now? He's a shell of his former self. No longer the rich, carefree college guy who brought a Russian criminal to his knees, all he's trying to do is recover from an assault that nearly killed him. Roan knows he should be grateful to be alive? but he's not. He's humiliated. Ashamed. Most of all, he's angry. He hasn't forgotten the part his dad played in everything that happened and when he threatens Sasha's freedom, Roan takes a page from the Russian's playbook. Maybe vengeance will piece him back together. Maybe then Roan can move on and get to the happily ever after he so desperately wants with the Wolf of Verkhoyansk.Content warning: This book contains references to alcohol/smoking, ethnic and homosexual slurs, sexual assault, mental health issues including PTSD and depression, on-page torture, and a lot of profanity.

Introducing Wyoming’s Sheriff Walt Longmire in this riveting novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Hell Is Empty and As the Crow Flies, the first in the Longmire Mystery Series, the basis for LONGMIRE, the hit Netflix original drama series. Fans of Ace Atkins, Nevada Barr and Robert B. Parker will love this outstanding first novel, in which New York Times bestselling author Craig Johnson introduces Sheriff Walt Longmire of Wyoming’s Absaroka County. Johnson draws on his deep attachment to the American West to produce a literary mystery of stunning authenticity, and full of memorable characters. After twenty-five years as sheriff of Absaroka County, Walt Longmire’s hopes of finishing out his tenure in peace are dashed when Cody Pritchard is found dead near the Northern Cheyenne Reservation. Two years earlier, Cody has been one of four high school boys given suspended sentences for raping a local Cheyenne girl. Somebody, it would seem, is seeking vengeance, and Longmire might be the only thing standing between the three remaining boys and a Sharps .45-70 rifle. With lifelong friend Henry Standing Bear, Deputy Victoria Moretti, and a cast of characters both tragic and humorous enough to fill in the vast emptiness of the high plains, Walt Longmire attempts to see that revenge, a dish best served cold, is never served at all.

Wrath - strong vengeful anger or indignation; retributory punishment for an offense or a crime. They say love makes you do crazy things. In Bennett Reeve's case that is the understatement of a century. Reunited with the love of his life, he will stop at nothing to ensure all of Leander's dreams come true. There's just one little problem - Dr. Lorelei Clayton. Until she's gone, Leander will never truly be his. Having lost Leander once already, Bennett will be damned if he stands by and lets it happen again. Exonerated from the four murders in his hometown, Leander Welles returns to Easton to pick up the pieces of his life. Before he can rest easy, there are few loose ends that need to be tied up. But as everyone knows, for every action there is a reaction and Leander unknowingly sets off a chain of events that even he cannot control. With each new death, he learns a painful lesson - when you're the villain, there is no such thing as happily ever after.

Tom Lewis weaves the story of these men and their achievements into a richly detailed and moving narrative that spans the first half of the twentieth century, a time when the American romance with science and technology was at its peak. Empire of the Air is a tale of pioneers on the frontier of a new technology, of American entrepreneurial spirit, and of the tragic collision between inventor and corporation.
