      #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts opens the door to one woman’s search for truth and passion in the first Key Trilogy novel. Malory Price’s life plan has hit a snag. She’s in danger of losing her job managing an art gallery in Pleasant Valley, Pennsylvania. A welcome distraction comes in the form of an invitation to a cocktail party at Warrior’s Peak, an infamous estate overlooking the town. But no one else she knows has been invited… There are only two other guests: Dana Steele, a librarian, and Zoe McCourt, a single mother. On the surface, it seems the women have nothing in common, until their mysterious hosts tell them a story—and offer them a challenge. Legend has it that the souls of three demigoddesses—one an artist, one a bard, and one a warrior—have been locked in a box that has three keys. Now it’s up to Malory and the others to find the keys. Their reward: a million dollars each. It all seems too bizarre to be true. But none of them can ignore the financial windfall they stand to gain. And now Malory—with her soul of an artist and eye for beauty—must find her key first. She soon discovers that whatever locked the souls away is dark, powerful, and greedy…and it doesn’t want the women to win. Don’t miss the other books in the Key Trilogy Key of Knowledge Key of Valor

      Da bambine hanno condiviso tutto: giochi, segreti, speranze. Con gli anni sono diventate donne brillanti, sexy e indipendenti. E hanno fondato un'agenzia di wedding planning dove ognuna di loro dà il meglio di sé per garantire ai clienti un giorno indimenticabile e perfetto. E loro, per quanto ancora rimarranno single? Sin da piccola Emma ha adorato le storie d'amore coronate da un lieto fine, ma non avrebbe mai immaginato che la sua passione si sarebbe trasformata in un lavoro: allestire addobbi floreali per i matrimoni. Sa tutto sui fiori e i bouquet da sposa... e anche sugli uomini. È la rubacuori del quartetto, ma è anche molto esigente: non smetterà mai di cercare l'uomo che sarà in grado di cambiarle la vita. E mai avrebbe immaginato di trovarlo così vicino, o meglio di riconoscerlo dopo così tanti anni... Perché l'uomo che la farà capitolare è proprio il suo migliore amico. Ma quando i due si confessano reciproco amore, le cose in agenzia iniziano a farsi difficili. I legami duraturi non sono mai stati il forte di Jack, mentre Emma cerca una storia che sia per sempre. Riusciranno a trovare un equilibrio? Può l'amicizia trasformarsi in amore? Se decideranno che sono fatti l'una per l'altro, dovranno abbandonarsi alle sorprese del destino, e alla forza di un sentimento pronto a superare qualsiasi ostacolo.

Ryder is the hardest Montgomery brother to figure out—with a tough-as-nails exterior and possibly nothing too soft underneath.

Except, apparently, Hope Beaumont, the innkeeper of his own Inn BoonsBoro… The former manager of a D.C. hotel, Hope is now where she wants to be—except for in her love life. Her only interaction with the opposite sex has been sparring with the infuriating Ryder, who always seems to get under her skin. Still, no one can deny the electricity that crackles between them…a spark that ignited with a New Year’s Eve kiss. While the inn is running smoothly, thanks to Hope’s experience and unerring instincts, her big-city past is about to make an unwelcome—and embarrassing—appearance. Seeing Hope vulnerable stirs Ryder’s emotions and makes him realize that while Hope may not be perfect, she just might be perfect for him… Don't miss the other books in the Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy The Next Always The Last Boyfriend

      1873. At an abandoned château on the outskirts of Paris, a dark séance is about to take place, led by acclaimed spiritualist Vaudeline D'Allaire. Known worldwide for her talent in conjuring the spirits of murder victims to ascertain the identities of the people who killed them, she is highly sought after by widows and investigators alike. Lenna Wickes has come to Paris to find answers about her sister's death, but to do so, she must embrace the unknown and overcome her own logic-driven bias against the occult. When Vaudeline is beckoned to England to solve a high-profile murder, Lenna accompanies her as an understudy. But as the women team up with the powerful men of London's exclusive Séance Society to solve the mystery, they begin to suspect that they are not merely out to solve 1a crime, but perhaps entangled in one themselves.
