Better Left Buried
Knives Out collides with A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder as Lucy and Audrey race to uncover answers about the body in the abandoned amusement park.
Except that Lucy’s family has ties to the small, claustrophobic Appalachian town that will change her life.
Except that Audrey’s mom is the primary suspect.
And the closer they get to the answers they’re looking for, the closer they get to a killer who will do anything to make sure the truth stays hidden.
After all, some secrets are better left buried.
Seven for a Secret
No one cares about the girls in Sister’s Place, a group home in Avan Island, Maryland. Five years ago, eight girls from Sister’s Place disappeared, one by one.
Only one ever returned.
Now, Nev has done her best to leave everything that happened in the forest on Avan Island behind. But when the men who ran her group home start turning up dead, Nev realizes this might be her only chance for answers about what happened to her sisters.
As Nev is pulled deeper into Avan’s secrets—and more bodies pile up—Nev must unravel the mysteries locked in her own mind as she hunts down a killer who is willing to do anything to make sure the past stays buried.
Sadie meets You Must Not Miss as lost sisters, female rage, and the determination to survive drive Nev on her propulsive journey to find answers and peace—and maybe even revenge.
Adult
We Are the Match
In this glittering, sapphic reimagining of Helen of Troy set in modern day mobster Greece, Helen is the daughter of a powerful crime lord and Paris is the woman hellbent on destroying her—if they don’t fall for each other first.
When a bomb goes off at Helen’s party, Paris volunteers to investigate—a ploy to get close enough to take revenge on the family she blames for the death of her own. Paris and Helen are thrown together in an opulent world of privilege, power, and cover-ups—and as their unexpected bond deepens, the fragile balance of power of the crime lords begins to fray.
Because if Helen doesn’t choose to abandon her newfound connection with Paris and marry into the alliance her father arranged, they could all go to war.
And Helen and Paris might just be ready to let them.
Love at First Kill
2026 (Montlake)
He’s a hitman. She’s a grumpy ex-librarian.
And they’re both gunning for the same billionaire.
Jack O’Sullivan is good at what he does. He’s meticulous, thorough, and he always finishes a job. He’s a professional—at murdering people for money.
Ava Cavalcante has a grudge, a cute red dress, and limited impulse control. When she disrupts Jack’s hit—by trying to get there first—everything falls apart.
Forced to work together if they have any hope of finishing this job (or getting revenge, depending on who you ask), Ava and Jack reluctantly team up. Between planning a murder, running for their lives, and hooking up in shady motels, they might end up with more than they bargained for… and they also just might be one kill away from their own happily ever after.
Bromantasy
Spring 2026 (Putnam)
Fellas, is it gay to kiss your bff while on a quest through the forest you’re unqualified for? Move over, romantasy. It’s time for bromantasy to have its moment.
Juniper Reilly is good at only two things: demolishing a pint of mead and finding the perfect skincare routine. Oh, and getting in brawls at the local tavern, backed by his roommate, the absurdly capable, endlessly patient Morn Elmthorn (Mo, for short).
But when Juniper accidentally volunteers them both for a quest to kill a fearsome monster, he knows he’s finally gotten in over his head. Juniper hates camping, he hates the dark, and there’s no way all these foraged mushrooms are going to sit well in his stomach. One thing he doesn’t hate? How good Mo’s thighs look in his questing pants—though that’s worrying for an entirely different reason.
But monsters come in all shapes and sizes. When the brave, totally 100% platonic bros realize the “fearsome monster” is actually just a scared little girl, they’ll begin to wonder who the real villain is… and if Juniper and Mo can find their own happy ending along the way.
In a kingdom utterly unprepared for Juniper and Mo’s single shared brain cell, BROMANTASY is what would happen if David Rose starred in THE PRINCESS BRIDE.

Middle Grade
Little Monsters
In this modern supernatural middle grade retelling of the beloved classic Little Women, the March sisters have a monstrous secret Meg will do anything to protect—especially with another beast lurking in the woods threatening to expose them.
Meg March and her three sisters are monsters. No, really. Meg has teeth that are a little too sharp. Jo gets furry under the full moon. Beth goes night flying on wings that are impossible to hide under her sweaters. And Amy? Well, don’t let her near a body of water or she’ll start sprouting her mermaid’s tail.
Meg is sure their foster mom, Marmee, wouldn’t like any of this if she knew. And Jo’s best friend Laurie, the nice boy next door, would run screaming. To make matters worse, Meg’s small town outside of Salem is on edge. A vicious beast has been spotted in the forest, and Farmer Bhaer believes it’s responsible for his missing chickens. Meg is sure to be blamed if anyone realizes she’s a monster in disguise. And the closer it gets to Halloween, the surer the town is that something evil is hiding in the forest.
Meg doesn’t always remember what she gets up to at night, and sometimes, she wakes alone in a mossy part of the forest and has to find her way back. With John Brooke determined to find out just what Meg is hiding and locals working to uncover the monsters in their midst, Meg must find the culprit herself—or risk losing the little home she’s found with her sisters.
