The Striker

GENRES: Adult & Contemporary Romance, Erotic Content

The Striker: Deluxe Limited Edition by Ana Huang Paperback at TheBookChart.com

The new must-read steamy sports romance from Ana Huang, the bestselling author of the Twisted and Kings of Sin series.

She's the only woman he wants . . . and the only one he can't have.

Asher Donovan is a living legend - the darling of the Premier League, the (arguably) greatest footballer in the world. But his reckless antics and recent team transfer have caused much controversy, and when his feud with his rival-turned-teammate costs them a championship, they're forced to 'bond' during off-season cross-training.

Surviving the summer shouldn't be hard . . . until Asher meets their new trainer. She's beautiful, talented, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't take his mind off her.

The only problem? She's his rival's sister - and completely off limits.

Diddly Squat Home to Roost by Jeremy Clarkson

GENRES: Memoirs, Agriculture & Farming, Autobiography: Arts & Entertainment, TV Tie-In

Diddly Squat: Home to Roost by Jeremy Clarkson Hardback at TheBookChart.com

 

It's been another memorable year on Diddly Squat Farm - will the chickens finally come home to roost?

Welcome back to Clarkson’s Farm. So, that went well . . .

The spring barley crop failed. Just like the oil seed rape. And the durum wheat.

Then the oats turned the colour of a hearing aid and the mushrooms went mouldy.

Farming sheep, pigs and cows was hardly more lucrative. Jeremy would be better off trying to breed ostriches. But in the face of uncooperative weather, the relentless realities of the agricultural economy, bureaucracy, a truculent local planning department and the world’s persistent refusal to recognise his ingenuity and genius, our hero’s not beaten yet. 

 

FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB

A brand new series.

An iconic new detective duo.

And a thrilling new murder to solve . . .

Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life.

He does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers his familiar habits and routines: the pub quiz, his favourite bench, his cat waiting for him when he comes home.

His days of adventure are over: adrenaline is daughter-in-law Amy’s business now.

Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul.

As a private security officer, she doesn’t stay still long enough for habits or routines.

She’s currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio alive. Which was meant to be an easy job . . .

Then a dead body, a bag of money and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending an SOS to the only person she trusts. A breakneck race around the world begins, but can Amy and Steve stay one step ahead of a deadly enemy?

The Christmas Cottage by Sarah Morgan Paperback at TheBookChart.com

Will this Christmas finally bring comfort and joy?

A PAINFUL SECRET

AN ACT OF KINDNESS

FINDING HAPPINESS AT CHRISTMAS

Will Imogen end up alone this Christmas, or can she find it in her heart to forgive and move on?

Super Sleuth by David Walliams Hardback at TheBookChart.com

From million-copy bestselling author David Walliams comes his first ever murder mystery – with thrills, spills and laughs galore.

Dilly loves a good murder. Not a REAL murder. A made-up murder. One you would find in a murder-mystery novel.

Sherlock Holmes is her favourite detective. She even named her dog Watson after his faithful companion, and trained him to sniff out clues and follow trails.

So far, Dilly and Watson haven’t cracked many cases – beyond lost cats, or missing biscuits that turned out to have been eaten all along. But now the detective duo find themselves on a luxury ocean liner bound for London.

A thousand passengers. A thousand miles of ocean around them.

It's the perfect place for a murder… Or two. Or three. Or four. Or MORE!
