New Adult Fiction: Thursday, September 5

As you begin to look toward the weekend, perhaps you’d like to consider some reading material. Macedon Public Library can help! We’ve got tons of new books coming in regularly—stop by and check them out. We will continue to offer “Grab and Go” services for those who prefer to place their books on hold online and then pick them up in the cabinet inside the library.

Here are a few of the new books that have arrived at the library recently. We invite you to check them out!

In the Shadow of the Fall

Ashâke is an acolyte in the temple of Ifa, yearning for the day she is made a priestess and sent out into the world to serve the orisha. But she is the only one the orisha refuse to speak to. For years she has watched as peer after peer passes her by and ascends to full priesthood. Desperate, Ashâke attempts to summon and trap an orisha. Instead, she experiences a vision so terrible it draws the attention of a powerful enemy sect and thrusts Ashâke into the center of a war that will shatter the very foundations of her world.

Betrayal Road

The stranger frequenting Azelie Vargas’s local coffee shop is tall, dark, muscular, and a complete distraction. She’s worried one look from his striking silver eyes will have her acting a fool. Andrii ‘Maestro’ Federoff is in San Francisco on business. After weeks of stealthy observation, he’s not sure if Azelie is involved directly, or if she’s just working for some bad people. What he does know is that he needs to get close to her fast, and soon he can’t get enough. What began as a setup quickly turns real. But no matter how hot they burn, Maestro’s betrayal could leave their hearts smoldering in the ashes.

Backwater Justice

The Sisterhood: a group of women from all walks of life bound by friendship and years of adventure. Armed with vast resources, top-notch expertise, and a loyal network of allies around the globe, the Sisterhood will not rest until every wrong is made right. The small Oregon town of Mountain Valley seems like the perfect place to safely raise a family, away from the dangers of the big city. Vanessa’s parents think so, until the day their fourteen-year-old daughter doesn’t come home for dinner. Myra Rutledge has honed her instincts over scores of missions, and the news stories about missing young women set her internal alarms ringing. She shares her concerns with other women of the Sisterhood, and they agree to look into the goings-on in Mountain Valley. But a small town like this can have deep secrets.
