Website: https://gobookmart.com/
Founder of Gobookmart: https://shashi.gobookmart.com/
“Bartz’s evocative descriptions of destinations as varied as Chile and Cambodia pulled me in immediately, but it was the way she ratcheted up the tension by dropping clues about the duo’s murky past that kept me rapt until the end.”—Travel + Leisure
“Incredibly tense and atmospheric, We Were Never Here explores the nuances of memory, the secrets that bind a friendship—and those that threaten to tear them apart. Andrea Bartz delivers a sharp, unsettling thriller about power, obsession, and the inescapable grip of the past.”—Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of All the Missing Girls and The Last House Guest
“A nail-biting, immersive whirl of a read . . . Brimming with mysterious twists, turns, and a frenemyship of the most chilling proportions, We Were Never Here is every woman’s worst nightmare—and every thriller-lover’s dream.”—Zakiya Dalila Harris, author of The Other Black Girl
“Andrea Bartz takes a friendship with boundary issues and adds an extra-special ingredient—the permanent, secret alliance of two people who have gotten away with murder. . . . An observant, suspenseful, and deeply scary novel.”—Steph Cha, author of Your House Will Pay
“Pulse-pounding with secrets, lies, and friends who trust too much.”—CrimeReads
“This smartly written psychological thriller will leave you all tingly.”—Reader’s Digest
“Bartz does a good job dramatizing the increasingly creepy relationship between the two women as the twisty plot builds. . . . Suspense fans will look forward to seeing more from this talented author.”—Publishers Weekly

“A terrific novel, blending the Hitchcockian elements with a touch of Patricia Highsmith.”—Booklist (starred review)
56 Days: By Catherine Ryan Howard | Book Review Podcast
Website: https://gobookmart.com
''56 Days, Catherine’s newest crime novel, is without a doubt my favorite book of hers yet -- and destined to be one of my top favorite books of the year. This clever and claustrophobic domestic thriller utilizes the pressure cooker of Ireland’s strict COVID lockdown policies to amp up the tension between a newly dating couple who decide to move in together rather than be forced to stay apart when COVID lands on Ireland’s shores. This book is masterfully plotted, deliciously entertaining, and brimming with the kinds of clever twists and reveals that you really won’t see coming.'' --Crime by the Book
''56 Days is definitely one for thriller lovers that crave suspenseful story lines. Catherine Ryan Howard is a mastermind with this one.'' --Fresh Fiction
''I first fell in love with Howard’s writing in The Nothing Man and I jumped at the chance to read her latest. Even though I had a rough idea of what was going on with Ciara, I was still able to be surprised by the twist. I enjoyed the timeline jumps and the same story being told from both Ciara and Oliver’s perspectives. It gave a really rounded experience and reminds you that you don’t always get the whole story from one person. Perfect addition to your reading list!'' --San Francisco Book Review
''Dark and dazzling, funny, sinister, and oh-so clever. I read 56 Days in a breath held right up until the final, mesmeric pages. Catherine Ryan Howard is ridiculously talented.'' --Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of We Begin at the End
''An eerie, twisty story ripped from current headlines, in which a global pandemic becomes the foreboding hypotenuse of a dangerous love triangle.'' --Library Journal
''Catherine Ryan Howard is a gift to crime writing. Her characters are credible, her stories are original, and her plotting is ingenious. Every book is a treat to look forward to.'' --Liz Nugent, internationally bestselling author, on Rewind
''As with Ms. Howard’s other thriller, The Nothing Man, this one is filled with a sense of foreboding from the first page. Nothing is as it seems, and yet everything is displayed in plain sight, if misinterpreted. 56 Days is a thriller with a heavy atmosphere of tension, set during a life-and-death time in our own contemporary history.'' --New York Journal of Books
''Howard structures her novel as a clever sort of countdown, dishing out slow reveals about each of the characters, until the shattering ending that I might label Tarantino-esque if it weren’t so intimate.'' --CrimeReads
''Each new twist, dispensed with surgical precision, will keep you hooked, nostalgic for the days when COVID-19 was the worst threat.'' --Kirkus Reviews
Blind Tiger: By Sandra Brown | Book Review Podcast
Website: https://gobookmart.com/
“Set in 1920, this superior thriller from bestseller Brown firmly anchors all the action in the plot . . . Laurel and Thatcher are strong and inventive characters, and their surprising decisions and evolving relationship will keep readers engaged. Brown shows why she remains in the top rank of her field.”―Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“Brown doesn’t often delve into historical fiction territory, but she does here with gusto, and readers will practically taste the dusty streets of Foley and feel every rickety bump of the moonshiners’ trucks. There are shoot-outs and reformed prostitutes and a no-good hillbilly family, but none of it feels like an empty stereotype—it’s just all a lot of fun. Combined with Brown’s knack for romantic tension and page-turning suspense, this one is a winner.”―Booklist, Starred Review
"A masterful storyteller."―USA Today
"Brown deserves her own genre."―Dallas Morning News
"A novelist who can't write them fast enough."―San Antonio Express-News
Bombshell By Sarah MacLean is the first novel in A Hell's Belles Novel Series
Website: https://gobookmart.com/
“Dark, daring, delicious, and absolutely delightful...While this story excels as a second-chance, redemption love story, what really makes it stand out is the unabashedly feminist exploration of power and how it ties in with identity and desire. The cinematic final draws the series to a wholly satisfying conclusion.” -- Kirkus Reviews on Daring and the Duke
“MacLean reinforces her place as a master of historical romance with another exemplary, empowering love story that brilliantly showcases her flair for gloriously insightful characterization, grandly entertaining plotting, and gorgeously sensual prose.” -- Booklist on Daring and the Duke
“In Daring and the Duke, Sarah MacLean’s final installment of the Bareknuckle Bastards, we get to see Grace Condry finally get the epic grovel she deserves. This romance is stridently feminist from the first page.” -- Washington Post
“I recommend anything by Sarah MacLean.” -- Lisa Kleypas, New York Times bestselling author
“She’s my absolute go-to author for clever, sexy and fun historical romances.” -- Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Brazen and the Beast is filled with lush sensuality, charming characters, witty dialogue and heart-stopping action--a tale that is certain to delight romance readers.” -- Shelf Awareness
“MacLean is not called the intoxicating queen of historical romance for nothing! She’s a master of intelligent dialogue, which adds to the tension, as several moments for a possible tryst pass the couple by...A fun, sexy read!” -- Historical Novel Society

"A nail-biting page-turner. . . . a powerful read.” -- New York Journal of Books
“Races along like a rocket on steroids. . . . Once you’ve opened the book, figuring out who Addison Hope is and how she got to Philadelphia will become your reason for waking up in the morning. Just give into it, set aside a day or two, and immerse yourself. But prepare for spine-tingling thrills.” -- Book Reporter
"A great addition to your beach bag this summer. Liv Constantine has done it again—creating multi-dimensional characters with some very deep psychological issues. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy twists and turns.” -- Criminal Element

“The Stranger in the Mirror by Liv Constantine is psychological suspense at its finest. Full of dark secrets and surprising twists, Constantine’s latest thriller leads readers down a pulse-pounding path of lies, hidden motives, and deadly intentions.

“Chambers’ writing is always tender and healing, but this book has something else braided into it ― something more... This is a book that, for one night, made me stop asking ‘what am I even for?’ I’m prescribing a preorder to anyone who has ever felt lost. Stunning, kind, necessary.” ―Sarah Gailey

"I read this book in one sitting when I was having a really wretched day, and it helped. It felt like a warm cup of tea made by someone who loves me. It's a soft hug of a book, and it says 'It's okay if you're not okay right now.' It made me cry the good sort of tears―the sort when someone is unexpectedly kind to you at the moment you need it most." ―Alexandra Rowland
