A Spring Hill tér kedves kis menedékhely, távol a mindennapok nyüzsgésétől. Itt várja vendégeit Leni Merryman Sarki teaháza, amely valódi paradicsom a könyvmolyok számára, és csak úgy vonzza a magányos szíveket. Leni kínálja a környék legkülönlegesebb tortáit a legizgalmasabb irodalmi témákkal fűszerezve: ki az ellenszenvesebb, Mr. Darcy vagy Heathcliff? A Manderley-ház asszonyának története szívszorítóbb, vagy Jane Eyre-é? Az irodalmi teadélutánok résztvevői hétről hétre mind jobban megnyílnak egymás előtt, s kiderül, hogy az ő életük is csaknem olyan regényes, mint kedvenc hőseiké. Hazugságok, tönkrement házasságok, éveken át titkolt kapcsolatok, személyes tragédiák látnak napvilágot. De nincs az a szív, amelyet ne melegítene át egy forró angol tea, egy szelet finom sütemény és Leni Merryman mosolya.

In the house of Helios, the sun god and a Titan, a daughter named Circe is born. Unlike her powerful father and alluring mother, Circe is an oddity who seeks companionship among mortals. She discovers her own power through witchcraft, enabling her to transform rivals into monsters and challenge the gods. Fearing her abilities, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she refines her craft, befriends wild beasts, and encounters legendary figures from mythology, including the Minotaur, Daedalus and Icarus, and the cunning Odysseus. However, her solitude attracts danger, as both men and gods become threatened by her strength. Ultimately, Circe faces the wrath of a vengeful Olympian and must protect her loved ones. This leads her to a pivotal choice: to align with the gods of her birth or embrace the mortals she cherishes. With rich characters, captivating language, and gripping suspense, this tale weaves a narrative of family rivalry, love, and loss, while celebrating the resilience of a woman in a male-dominated world.

A stunning, sweeping love story set against the backdrop of the German Occupation of Guernsey during World War Two.

This powerful reimagining of Jane Eyre, set in a modern-day law firm, is full of romance and hope as it follows the echoing heartbeats of the classic story.A former foster kid, Jane has led a solitary life as a waitress in the suburbs, working hard to get by. Tired of years of barely scraping together a living, Jane takes classes to become a legal assistant and shortly after graduating accepts a job offer at a distinguished law firm in downtown Toronto. Everyone at the firm thinks she is destined for failure because her boss is the notoriously difficult Edward Rosen, the majority stakeholder of Rosen, Haythe & Thornfield LLP. But Jane has known far worse trials and refuses to back down when economic freedom is so close at hand.Edward has never been able to keep an assistant--he's too loud, too messy, too ill-tempered. There's something about the quietly competent, delightfully sharp-witted Jane that intrigues him though. As their orbits overlap, their feelings begin to develop--first comes fondness and then something more. But when Edward's secrets put Jane's independence in jeopardy, she must face long-ignored ghosts from her past and decide if opening her heart is a risk worth taking.
