Full
writing with Charlotte Hughes
Genre: Romantic Supsense"Janet Evanovich and her good friend Charlotte Hughes have teamed up to write this romantic suspense series—full of fast-paced action, dysfunctional, loveable characters, steamy sex, suspense and non-stop hilarity. The series kicks off with Full House, featuring polo instructor Nicholas Kaharchek and divorced mother Billie Pearce. Starting in Full Tilt, the series shifts to Beaumont, South Carolina and a new romance between Jamie Swift, a local newspaper reporter, and Holt, a mysterious millionaire. Just like Janet Evanovich's New York Times bestselling Stephanie Plum series, the Full series has fun, loveable, characters, villains you love to hate and a cross-eyed way of looking at life and love."

Ambitious High Lords plot and maneuver to place their Houses in positions of power, and a war of succession looms on the horizon. Far from city politics in the Calderon Valley, the boy Tavi struggles with his lack of furycrafting. At fifteen, he has no wind fury to help him fly, no fire fury to light his lamps. Yet as the Alerans' most savage enemy - the Marat - return to the Valley, he will discover that his destiny is much greater than he could ever imagine."
