'The perfect combination of heat and humour!' Hannah Grace ' A fresh, fun and fast-paced sports romance that readers won't be able to put down' Becka Mack _______________________ Ella Davies didn’t trade her life in England for a year in Nashville to let anything—or anyone—throw her off her game. She only has one goal: to prove herself on her new school’s elite cheer squad. What she hadn’t planned for was meeting a gorgeous stranger on her first evening in America. Hudson Fox is Whitland’s prized possession, a star quarterback who’s never lacked admirers. But this year, he's sworn off temptation—especially the new English cheerleader who’s proving impossible to ignore. When Ella and Hudson are forced to spend more time together, their "just one night" pact shatters. Soon, tumbling from the pyramid becomes the least of Ella’s worries. Because instead of hitting the mat, she's falling hard for the quarterback. . . _______________________ Praise for Game On : 'Sexy, fun and sprinkled with the best things of a sports romance, I devoured Game On !'

#1 New York Times Bestselling Author Stephanie Plum returns to hunt down a master cyber-criminal operating out of Trenton in the 28thbook in the wildly popular series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Janet Evanovich. When Stephanie Plum is woken up in the middle of the night by the sound of footsteps in her apartment, she wishes she didn’t keep her gun in the cookie jar in her kitchen. And when she finds out the intruder is fellow apprehension agent Diesel, six feet of hard muscle and bad attitude whom she hasn’t seen in more than two years, she still thinks the gun might come in handy. Turns out Diesel and Stephanie are on the trail of the same fugitive: Oswald Wednesday, an international computer hacker as brilliant as he is ruthless. Stephanie may not be the most technologically savvy sleuth, but she more than makes up for that with her dogged determination, her understanding of human nature, and her willingness to do just about anything to bring a fugitive to justice. Unsure if Diesel is her partner or her competition in this case, she’ll need to watch her back every step of the way as she sets the stage to draw Wednesday out from behind his computer and into the real world. Praise for Janet Evanovich: 'When you read a Stephanie Plum novel, you’re guaranteed tension, humour, cars blowing up and a lot of doughnuts. Game On adds hackers and extreme knitting into the mix. No one writes crime comedy like Janet Evanovich. A delight from beginning to end!' JOY KLUVER ‘The undisputed queen of the comedy beat . . . A hilarious rollercoaster ride with a heroine who would have Bridget Jones for breakfast’ GUARDIAN ‘There are few crime writers who can make their readers laugh out loud at the same time as keeping the tension as high octane as this . . . For sheer uncomplicated fun, Stephanie Plum is hard to beat’ EXPRESS ON SUNDAY ‘A laugh-out-loud page-turner’ HEAT ‘Pithy, witty and fast-paced’ SUNDAY TIMES ‘Stephanie Plum in ass-kicking form . . . utterly delightful’ COSMOPOLITAN ‘Evanovich’s series of New Jersey comedy thrillers are among the great joys of contemporary crime fiction . . . All the easy class and wit that you expect to find in the best American TV comedy, but too rarely find in modern fiction’ GQ ‘As smart and sassy as high-gloss wet paint’ TIME OUT
