And sure enough, it's not long before the angel Gabriel shows up, willing to do anything to keep Luc from getting what he came for. It isn't long before they find themselves fighting for more than just Frannie's soul.But if Luc fails, there will be Hell to pay . . . for all of them.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Personal Effects: Dark Art
by J. C. Hutchins Jordan WeismanWant to try it yourself? Call the phone number shown on book's cover: 212-629-1951 and listen to the voicemail message for main character Zach Taylor. Personal Effects follows the extensive notes of therapist Zach Taylor's investigation into the life and madness of Martin Grace, an accused serial killer who claims to have foreseen, but not caused, his victims' deaths. Zach's investigations start with interviews and art sessions, but then take him far from the hospital grounds--and often very far from the reality that we know. The items among Grace's personal effects are the keys to understanding his haunted past, and finding the terrifying truth Grace hoped to keep buried. Call the phone numbers: you'll get a character's voicemail. Google the characters and institutions in the text: you'll find real websites. Examine the art and other printed artifacts included inside the cover: if you pay attention, you'll find more information than the characters themselves discover Personal Effects, the ultimate in voyeuristic storytelling, represents a revolutionary step forward in changing the way people interact with novels.

Persuasion: Heirs of Watson Island (Heirs of Watson Island)
by Martina BooneBeautiful Creatures meets Gone with the Wind in the spellbinding second novel in the Heirs of Watson Island trilogy that “skillfully blends rich magic and folklore with adventure, sweeping romance, and hidden treasure” (Publishers Weekly, on Compulsion).Grieving the death of her godfather and haunted by her cousin Cassie’s betrayal, Barrie returns from a trip to San Francisco to find the Watson plantation under siege. Ghost-hunters hope to glimpse the ancient spirit who sets the river on fire each night, and reporters chase rumors of a stolen shipment of Civil War gold that may be hidden at Colesworth Place. The chaos turns dangerous as Cassie hires a team of archeologists to excavate beneath the mansion ruins. Because more than treasure is buried there. A stranger filled with magic arrives at Watson’s Landing claiming that the key to the Watson and Beaufort gifts—and the Colesworth curse—also lies beneath the mansion. With a mix of threats and promises, the man convinces Barrie and Cassie to cast a spell at midnight. But what he conjures may have deadly consequences. While Barrie struggles to make sense of the escalating peril and her growing feelings for Eight Beaufort, it’s impossible to know whom to trust and what to fight for—Eight or herself. Millions of dollars and the fate of the founding families is at stake. Now Barrie must choose between what she feels deep in her heart and what will keep Watson’s Landing safe in this stunning addition to a series filled with “decadent settings, mysterious magic, and family histories rife with debauchery” (Kirkus Reviews, on Compulsion).

Pesadillas y alucinaciones II
by Stephen KingUna extraña tempestad que solo se produce en un pueblo cada siete años; un juguete con preferencia por la carne humana y una organización de fumadores clandestinos enfrentados a un poder terrorífico y antinatural. «Cuando la gente ve fantasmas, siempre se ve primero a sí misma», afirma Stephen King, y pocas reflexiones servirían mejor que esta como moraleja de sus historias: el mundo de la fantasía está poblado por las sombras de la conciencia. Los relatos de Pesadillas y alucinaciones II son otros tantos retazos de esas sombras, las que enturbian los límites entre el sueño y la vigilia, la realidad y el horror que subyace en lo real.
