A secret affair with your teenage celebrity crush? Yes, please! Music journalist Cassy Evans believes her career is made when she snags an exclusive interview with rock singer Frankie Blade. Once a superstar of the generation, Frankie has been a recluse since a freak motorcycle incident sent his career into a tailspin seven years ago. Now that he's returned to claim back his crown, Cassy hopes to kill two birds with one stone--secure her magazine a top spot in the rankings and chat with the man of her adolescent dreams. A dinner invitation isn't what she expects to get out of this interview, but the chemistry between them is undeniable. With paparazzi watching Frankie's every move as the two jump into a stormy relationship, Cassy risks her career, privacy--and possibly heart--to be with the biggest rockstar on the planet. But is Frankie worth it? Is he a humble man she thinks he is or is he just that good at hiding his demons? Final Serenade is the first book in The Encore installment. Cassy and Frankie's story concludes in One Last Verse.

Toni Bentley, a dancer for George Balanchine, the greatest ballet maker of the 20th century, tells the story of Serenade, his iconic masterpiece, and what it was like to dance—and live—in his world at New York City Ballet during its legendary era. At age seventeen, Toni Bentley was chosen by Balanchine, then in his final years, to join the New York City Ballet. From both backstage and onstage, she carries us through the serendipitous history and physical intricacies and demands of Serenade: its dazzling opening, with seventeen women in a double-diamond pattern; its radical, even jazzy, use of the highly refined language that is ballet; its place in the choreographer’s own dramatic story of his immigration to the United States from Soviet Russia; its mystical—and literal—embodiment of the tradition of classical ballet in just thirty-three minutes. Bentley takes us inside the rarefied, intense, and thrilling world Balanchine created through his lifelong devotion to celebrating and expanding female beauty and strength—a world that, inevitably, passed upon his death. An intimate elegy to grace and loss and to the imprint of a towering artist and his transcendent creation on Bentley’s own life, Serenade: A Balanchine Story is a rich narrative by a dynamic artist about the nature of art itself at its most ephemeral and glorious.

In the quaint town of Everwick, nestled atop a hill and veiled by ancient woods, stands the imposing Wraithwood Manor. Its tall spires and gothic arches are more than just architectural marvels; they are silent witnesses to centuries of history, tales of love and loss, secrets and discoveries, and bonds that transcend time. To the townsfolk, the manor is an enigma, shrouded in mystery and legends. Whispers of ghostly apparitions, long-lost treasures, and ethereal melodies that float with the wind have kept many a child awake with a mix of fear and fascination. Yet, for all its mystique, the heart of Wraithwood's story is one of family — a lineage that has weathered storms both real and metaphorical, binding generations of Wraithwoods to the manor and to each other.

In " Haunted Inheritance," every shadow holds a tale, every whisper an echo from the past, inviting readers to step into a world where the line between the living and the spectral is delicately blurred.

She sure did look like someone they'd call Upstream Sally. Her waders had far too many holes and slits to keep her legs and feet dry. She wore a man's red and blue checkered flannel shirt outside of heavily stained overalls. The shirt's colors were faded to milky pastels and the edges were frayed. You could tell that fishing was serious business to her. Her cast was a thing of beauty-like the way Willie Mays used to shag balls in center field. I stood still and watched her from behind, sensing that she was fully aware of me. I guessed that her backwoods radar indicated that something was intruding on nature's normal ballet. My radar told me that although she knew I was there, at first she chose to pretend that she didn't. Then without turning around, her gravelly voice sounded loudly: "Not too many come this far upstream." "I know," I said. "Probably the sweet-smellin aspens that pulled you along." "You may be right." "No. You don't know your aspen from your aster. Now, what is it you want mister?"
