Amid the shadows of war, one family faces an impossible choice that will change their lives forever. From best seller Mario Escobar comes a 20th-century historical novel of sacrifice and resilience inspired by Spain’s famed Children of Morelia and the true events that shaped their lives.

On April 12, 1945, a fleet of American B-29 bombers flew toward Japan. Their mission was simple: Stop World War II by burning the cities, factories, and military bases of the Japanese em­pire, thereby forcing an unconditional surrender. But it didn't go as planned. Onboard one of the B-29s, the City of Los Angeles, a phosphorus bomb detonated inside the plane. Staff Sergeant Henry E. "Red" Erwin absorbed the blast of burning phosphorus and managed to throw the still-flaming bomb overboard be­fore collapsing from the third-degree burns that covered his body.

Honor is secondary to survival. Reeling from their losses at Callinicum, the Roman army has repulsed the Persians from Mesopotamia, but at horrendous cost.

With his last order, Belisarius pleads with Varus to lead the army to safety and to bring peace to a shattered land.

Despite indications that he is the one prophesied to end the ancient Reaper War, Jack appears to have no extraordinary abilities.

A girl asks her best friend to pretend to be her fiancé and falls for him hard. That wasn’t Louise’s plan. Her plan was to prove that everything her parents ever said about her was wrong. And since that included that no one would ever love her, when the hottest guy ever asked her to marry him after two dates, she said yes. Lou’s plan might have worked if the hot guy didn’t ghost her after she told her parents to expect him at their next family get-together. So, what choice did she have but to instead ask her way too sexy best friend to pretend to be her fiancé? 

He might make her nerdy heart pound like the drums at one of his football games, but Quin needs to get over star quarterback, Cage Rucker. For one thing, he has a girlfriend. For another, she didn’t come to college to find a guy, even if he is sweet and kind, and volunteers with kids on the weekend. She has bigger plans. Unfortunately, those bigger plans require one thing she doesn’t have—the ability to talk to people. And who’s good at talking to people? Cage Rucker.

Kendal Seers might be a lot of things—weird, introverted, boyish-looking—but she’s not stupid. She doesn’t have to learn the same lesson twice. But, when her professor selects her as a counselor in an exclusive program mentoring troubled students, and is assigned the same set of broad shoulders and marble cheekbones, this time she can’t storm off. Why was Nero Roman, star running back, in a program for troubled students? Could it have to do with his small-town roots? Can Kendall lower her guard long enough to find out?

August 1942. Jacob and Moses Stein, two young Jewish brothers, are staying with their aunt in Paris amid the Nazi occupation. The boys’ parents, well-known German playwrights, have left the brothers in their aunt’s care until they can find safe harbor for their family. But before the Steins can reunite, a great and terrifying roundup occurs. The French gendarmes, under Nazi order, arrest the boys and take them to the Vélodrome d’Hiver - a massive, bleak structure in Paris where thousands of France’s Jews are being forcibly detained.

Cage's problem: He needs to pass his class or he won’t be able to play football, get drafted, or become the NFL star he was meant to be. Harlequin’s problem: people. Luckily, Cage is great with people. Everyone loves him as soon as they meet him, including Harlequin. And Quin is the smartest girl in the class. 

When Kendall wakes up from a night of drinking with a note pinned to her shirt, the last thing she guesses is that it was put there by a gorgeous guy who desperately wanted to see her again. Why would she? She was nerdy, more than a little awkward, and had never even kissed a guy. And it wasn’t like she had come to university to date. She had big plans. She was going to help people who were going through difficult times and she was going to be the best in the world at it.

My whole life, my mother told me I would never find love. So when my university’s hot, rich, starting quarterback asked me to marry him, this girl said yes. We had only been dating for two weeks. By the third week, he had shattered my heart. Maybe I shouldn’t have made a big deal about bringing him to the next family get-together. Luckily, there was one person who could always fix things when a guy left me in pieces: my best friend, Titus. He was my rock. That’s why I asked him to come home with me to pretend to be my fiancé.  

Quin's heart aches being alone. But when your wolf has blood on its claws, you're not given a choice. At least, that's what she was thinking when she escaped to a small-town university in backwoods Tennessee. She might never have shifted again if it wasn't for a fated encounter with a dangerously sexy human who wakes her wolf.

There’s something about Kendall Seers that my wolf would kill for, which is weird because the girl doesn’t have a scent. What is she, a shifter? A fae? My instincts have been off since I left my backwoods town to play college football. Going pro could be my way out. Out of poverty. Out of my pack. And out from under the past that haunts me. My wolf isn’t making it easy, though. The only thing that calms him is Kendall. 

Teasing a wolf usually gets you bit. That’s why I never made a move on my best friend. But when he saves me from the worst fate of all, facing my family without the fiancé I told them I had, he becomes hard to resist.

Marcin Zukowski, Thierry Cruanes, and Benoit Dageville had a mission. As Snowflake’s founders, they wanted to make all types of data available to anybody with permission to use it via a simple and inexpensive mechanism. Their collective efforts drove the breakthrough creation of the Data Cloud. Snowflake’s Data Cloud platform ingests available data and transforms it into information. Without the ability to effectively process, data is just a collection of raw facts.

On paper, Coach Rob Mendez sounds like any other football coach on any other field across America: passionate, authoritative, knowledgeable. But he’s unlike any other coach you know - in fact, he’s probably unlike any other person you know. Born with an extraordinarily rare condition called tetra-Amelia syndrome, Rob has no arms or legs. He moves with the assistance of a custom-made, motorized wheelchair that he operates with his back and shoulders.

Suffering invasions, riots, and hunger, the decaying Roman Empire staggers against its most ancient enemy—Persia. Undefeated in over a century, the Shahanshah’s vast armies cross the Tigris, hungry to reclaim lands that once had been the jewel of their heritage. Driving Persia’s invasion are the vaunted Immortals, an elite band of Persian warriors unmatched in prowess. Set against the invading forces are the undermanned and ill-equipped forces of Flavius Belisarius. 

Rome has fallen into darkness. Its legacy remains alive in Constantinople, whose leaders struggle to retain control. Yet famine, war, and an encroaching night leave the Eastern Empire towards ruin. Faint hope arises as a new dynasty ascends the throne of Caesar. Bearing witness to such events is Varus, a young Herulian slave to the aging yet powerful Justin, who unveils a bold plan held by two generations of Romans - to retake the West and reclaim their homeland. 

With NFL scouts watching my every move, the last thing I should be thinking about is Quinton Toro, my awkwardly sexy, genius tutor who makes me think naughty thoughts. I might fantasize about everything about him at night, but I’ve worked too hard for too long to slip up now. But if it came down to having him or a career in the NFL, which would I choose? The answer should be obvious, right? Then why can’t I get the way he looks at me out of my mind?
