"I'm convinced that human experience consists of tragedy and comedy, oftentimes mixed up in a way that we can't even begin to understand." Terry Roberts's insightful takes on the human condition are at the heart of IN THE FULLNESS OF TIME, an evocative portrait of humankind's capacity for courage, love, and hope as well as folly, set against the backdrop of 1960s North Carolina.

Clinton Salter is the sheriff who never wanted to be sheriff. A World War II veteran and widower, he is elected due to the political machinations of his brother. His new territory is the fabled Madison County, North Carolina—a place of the steepest mountain ridges and most isolated coves and valleys. A place where the seasons matter more than the calendar and the past is as real as the present.

When he first takes office, he hopes only to deal with the drunk and disorderly and stolen tractors, but matters quickly accelerate into arson, grave robbing, and murder, and he begins to suspect his own brother’s motives. He finds solace in the friendship of Catherine Metcalf, a lonely high school principal whose husband has been in a coma and dying for years. Their only refuge is Clinton’s farm high in the mountains, where they can retreat from the world. As they seek to create a new life for themselves and the county, political violence and family cruelty threaten to shatter their visions.

Immerse yourself in a bone-chilling new adventure from New York Times bestselling author David Golemon, THE CONTEST 🌖❄️🐺

An ancient evil lurks on the American frontier, and seven contestants from around the world must compete to eradicate it.

In 1865, from a law office in Paris, seven ornate envelopes are sent to the most fearsome killers around the world, a samurai, sharpshooter, war hero, and serial killer among the recipients. Inside the gilded envelopes is a letter inviting each of them to participate in the contest of a lifetime. On the cold plains of the American frontier, there roams a beast. Kill it and the million dollar prize is theirs.

Despite mystery shrouding the competition's host, each man agrees to participate. But when the contestants arrive for the hunt, they soon realize there's more to this Contest than meets the eye. Strange sounds float across the plains, warning of an otherworldly threat. Their target is not a mere animal but a fearsome beast of legend hunting them in return. Can the contestants survive the cold, creatures, and each other long enough to kill the beast? Or will they soon find they were right to fear the dark?

THE CONTEST is out right now! Get your copy today wherever you buy books: https://turnerpublishing.com/products/the-contest-a-novel-of-horror-from-the-american-frontier?_pos=1&_sid=29e8e5ef6&_ss=r

✨COVER REVEAL✨

The perfect book for astrology girls who love slow burns, forced proximity, and grumpy x sunshine dynamics. LOVE FROM THE COSMOS by Mowa Badmos comes out February 3! Preorder now wherever books are sold.

Beautiful, smart, and determined Moyo Adegbite has it all...almost.

As a Boston-based Pediatrician, she’s made her parents back in Lagos proud. Now, she’s ready for true love.

To avoid dating all the duds in Boston, Moyo’s research led her to devise a foolproof plan: Join Cupid's Bow, the popular astrology dating app that uses birth charts to match soulmates with a 99 percent success rate. And the app works…until it doesn’t. After discovering the infidelity of a Cupid’s Bow match, Moyo goes on a booze-fueled rant against the app’s creators, filing an irate complaint slamming the planet responsible for her love life—the god, Saturn.

Niyi Bankole was reluctantly named Saturn, and now he’s saddled with a position at Cupid’s Bow, the family business, as one of three matchmakers. But Niyi quickly learns he’s unequipped to be a god. Leaning into his science background to hide his incompetence, Niyi writes an algorithm that seems to work for clients...until Moyo’s complaint triggers damage control. Now, Moyo is contracted to receive a dating coach to walk her through three Cupid’s Bow–assigned dates. Eager to clean up his mess and (secretly) fine-tune his algorithm, Niyi offers to be Moyo’s dating coach.

As they work together, will Moyo find love through the algorithm, as she and Niyi planned, or will she get swept up in one of Saturn’s rings?

To celebrate disability pride month, escape into the world of the Ables, a group of secret superheroes who must overcome more than villains in order to enhance their powers and identify the evil threatening their world.

12-year-old Phillip has amazing hearing, mostly by virtue of being blind, but when his dad tells him he has the power of telekinesis, he can't quite believe what he's hearing. Now, he's excited to attend superhero school until he learns he has been placed in a special class for disabled kids with powers. Bullied, threatened, and betrayed, Phillip struggles, even as he and his friends, calling themselves the Ables, find ways to maximize their powers to overcome their disabilities, and are the first to identify the growing evil threatening humanity.
