Stone Field by Christy Lenzi (Square Fish) - re-release of a previously published YA novel, moved from January 2026.
A stunning debut novel that
offers a new look at a classic love story about soul mates torn apart
by the circumstances of their time.
Catrina Dickinson is haunted
by her past and feels caged in by life in small town Missouri. When she
discovers a strange man in Stone Field where her family grows their
sorghum crop, her life takes on new meaning. He has no memory of who he
is or what brought him to Cat's farm, but they fall passionately in
love. Meanwhile, the country is on the brink of the Civil War, and the
conflict in Missouri demands that everyone take a side before the
bloodbath reaches their doorstep.
A passionate and atmospheric
reimagining of Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, Stone Field by Christy
Lenzi explores how violence and vengeance perverts the human spirit, and
how hatred can be transcended by love.
In this contemporary romance by bestselling authors Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé & Adiba Jaigirdar, a hotel heiress and the son of a caterer develop feelings for each other as his family works to cater a big celebrity wedding and she secretly works to put a stop to the wedding.
For Karim Zaman, life is like the Bollywood movies he loves watching with his nanu. Sure, his family runs a catering/divorce/funeral business, but he still gets caught up in the movies’ big dance numbers and sweeping declarations of love. He can’t believe it when his family is hired to cater the wedding of a famous Bollywood actress to and Afrobeats superstar. And with Karim’s family struggling to make ends meet ever since his father’s death, this wedding would be life-changing for them. Things cannot go wrong.
Nairobi Yusef may be the heir to a large hotel fortune, but her life is nothing like a movie. She spends most of her time in the London branch of her dad’s hotel chain alone and unsure what to do with herself. And with the way she’s seen relationships crash and burn, she’s not exactly looking forward to her cousin Musa’s—or Oga Suya as his fans know him—wedding. When she overhears something that makes it clear his fiancé has ulterior motives, Nairobi realizes this wedding cannot happen.
With multiple pre-wedding events leading up to the big day, the two teens’ paths keep crossing while Nairobi works to keep her cousin from saying I do (unbeknownst to anyone) and Karim works to make sure things go perfectly. They may be focused on the wedding, but they can’t help notice their growing feelings for one another. Will Nairobi’s meddling with the impending wedding tear them apart? Or will they get their sweet Bollywood movie ending?
