Bella Moretti has it all-a devoted husband, a glamorous life, and a wardrobe that could make royalty jealous. As the beloved wife of Adrian Moretti, one of the most powerful men in the country, her days are filled with charity galas, luxury vacations, and stolen kisses over morning espressos. Then, one day, a mysterious man arrives. Her employers have been waiting. The mission she never knew she had-the one she was trained for but somehow forgot-has begun. And her target? Adrian Moretti. Her husband. Does she finish the job-or betray everything she was trained for? Because if Adrian finds out first, she might not get a choice.

Bcqu is a closely knit research squad which specializes in exploring and documenting the life of dangerous planets. After all, it's easy to coordinate risky plans if you're all the same person. Planet GU-T64A isn't supposed to be one of those missions, but when one of him makes a critical mistake, Speaker is ripped from the rest of himself and thrown into the depths of space. Trapped 10,000 lightyears away from known civilization and floundering as a mere portion of his entire self, Speaker hardly knows how to function. The engineer who effectively murdered him is determined that they work together to steal a ship and find a way home, but the civilization they have landed in offers new and deep connections he never knew he could have. It's no replacement for the rest of himself, but the longer he stays here the more he begins to wonder if returning to his old life is a goal worth pursuing at all. After all, what could be more fulfilling than being understood by minds completely different than your own?

Love and retaliation conspire to foil a billionaire land developer's attempt to bulldoze a family business. Heather Clayburn owns Nuance, a thriving upscale restaurant in a nineteenth-century house in Vancouver's West End. Her family has lived above the restaurant for generations, but after her divorce, only she and her twelve-year-old daughter, Sage, remain. As Downtown spreads westward, massive office and condo towers threaten the last of the houses, and she is determined to preserve the family legacy. Strathaven Land Development owns the adjacent vacant lot, leasing it to the restaurant for client parking, and they recently bought the 1950s apartment building on the other side of the house. When Strathaven's owner tells Heather about an old verbal purchase agreement, she refutes its validity. He forces his son, Sinclair, to coerce her into selling. Sinclair becomes a regular diner at Nuance, catching Heather's eye, and while looking for ways to do his father's dirty deeds, he is increasingly attracted to her. Unaware of his motives, she moves him to the top of her dream hunk list.

Aria Morales is a girl of secrets. At school, she's invisible by choice-quiet, guarded, and perfectly forgettable. After hours, she's a vlogger with a secret side no one knows. And underneath it all? She's something more: a mermaid with elemental powers tied to her emotions-and one mistake away from being exposed. She's spent years keeping those versions of herself separate. But when a class project forces her to work with Jack Carter-the school's golden quarterback with a reputation for breaking hearts-everything starts to slip. One accidental touch. One water spill. One breath too deep. And suddenly, Aria's carefully controlled world is threatening to unravel. Staying invisible was the plan. But the more time she spends around Jack, the harder it gets to hide who she really is. One project. One secret. And a boy who could ruin everything without even trying.
