But Henry wants a son.
And he desperately wants Anne Boleyn.When the king demands an annulment – claiming their marriage was never valid – Catherine faces an impossible choice: accept a comfortable exile and declare her daughter illegitimate, or fight for the truth no matter the cost.

Unlock Your Power: A seven-step system to break inner limits and rewrite your future in 2026
A practical, powerful guide to break old patterns, rewire your energy, and step into your next-level future ― no hustle required.
Discover the internal patterns that have been quietly running your life and learn how to take control of what comes next.
Do you:
- Say yes when you really mean no?
- Hold back even when you feel ready for more?
- Sense there’s a bigger version of your life waiting, but feel unsure how to reach it?
That’s not you failing and you’re definitely not broken. Those are subconscious patterns doing what they once learned to do: keeping you safe, accepted, and loved. They were helpful once but are limiting now.
These patterns aren’t your intuition. They’re habitual loops that quietly keep you playing small and stuck at the same level. But here’s the good news: once you can spot a pattern, you can change it. And when you change the pattern, you get to choose a new direction.
Spot the pattern. Shift the power.
In Unlock Your Power, Poppy Delbridge shows you how to uncover the patterns shaping your choices and how to consciously step into your next-level future.
Blending neuroscience, energy work and identity transformation, Unlock Your Power offers a clear, seven-step framework to help you break unhelpful habits, rewire emotional responses and start choosing what you actually want, not what you’ve been conditioned to settle for.
As you work through the book, you’ll begin to feel:
- Less overwhelmed
- More space and clarity in your mind
- More confident in your decisions
- Less reactive to stress
- More aligned with who you’re becoming
- More like yourself, only expanded
This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about upgrading how you operate. If you’re ready to stop living on autopilot and step into your next level with clarity and confidence, Unlock Your Power gives you both the spark and the structure to make that shift real.
The life you want isn’t waiting for you to earn it. It’s waiting for you to choose it.
Reclaim your energy. Unlock your power.

David Bowie and the Search for Life, Death and God: David Bowie and the Search for Life, Death and God
The story of how David Bowie’s search for meaning inspired him to write the music that defined a generation.
In this wide-ranging biography, Peter Ormerod explores the quest for spirituality that powered David Bowie’s creativity from his earliest recordings to his death-defying final album. Bowie’s genre-expanding, era-crossing genius had an extraordinary impact on popular culture but his life-long search for spiritual truth and enlightenment has been overlooked.
From Bowie’s first musical encounters as a choirboy, this book traces his spiritual obsessions over the years. As a young musician at the start of his career, he was enraptured by Tibetan Buddhism. It was the first step in a spiritual journey that would generate his most profound lyrics and music. From the Kabbalah-influenced tracks of Station to Station to Ziggy Stardust’s messiah complex and the profound affinity between Heroes and Christian thought, Ormerod sheds new light on the spiritual traditions behind Bowie’s genius.
Taking Bowie’s spiritual explorations and faith seriously, Ormerod shows us how this quest for meaning propelled him through his darkest moments and biggest successes, lending his music a timelessness and depth that has spoken to so many people across the world. Whether experiencing a dark night of the soul in LA during his occult phase or reciting the Lord’s prayer in front of thousands of concertgoers, Bowie was always searching for that universal truth that lies beyond everyday reality.

With his waking life stalked by the disturbing scene, confusion quickly turns to obsession. Desperate for answers, Damon digs into his fractured past, and becomes convinced that the only way to remember…is to die again. And again. And again. When he meets a perfect stranger who’s all too willing to help, the stage is set for his dice with death.

Death in a Green Room: A 1920s Murder Mystery (The Maeve Morgan Historical Cozy Mystery Series Book 10)
Bad acting is forgivable. Murder is not!Strathfulton Castle is many things—ancient, imposing, and never dull for long—but when a troupe of temperamental London actors descends upon the estate, even Maeve Morgan isn’t prepared for the drama that follows.
What begins as a harmless rehearsal for a touring production quickly spirals into real-life tragedy when a celebrated actress collapses in the castle’s green room. At first, it looks like theatrical excess gone too far. But Maeve, former police officer turned reluctant countess, knows the difference between make-believe murder and the real thing, and this is most definitely the latter.
With the police frustratingly absent, Maeve finds herself navigating a castle full of oversized egos, secret grudges, and actors who all seem to be performing even when the curtain is down. As tensions rise and another death shocks the household, it becomes chillingly clear that someone is rewriting the script—and they’re not done yet.
Surrounded by poison pens, prop daggers, and a company where everyone has a motive and no one is entirely trustworthy, Maeve must uncover the truth before the final act claims yet another victim.
Witty, atmospheric, and delightfully twisty, Death in a Green Room is a classic British cozy mystery packed with sharp dialogue, theatrical intrigue, and a heroine who proves that murder is far harder to conceal than bad acting.
Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, golden-age mysteries, and British TV dramas where secrets lurk behind every polite smile—and the deadliest performances happen offstage.

Death on the Lanai: A Golden Girls Cozy Mystery (Golden Girls Cozy Mystery Series)
The New York Times bestselling series that began with Murder by Cheesecake continues with an all-new Golden Girls cozy mystery!When the Girls accept a very strange invitation to a lavish party on a remote island estate, they find that murder has a way of ruining even the most glamorous of evenings.
The invite delivered to 6151 Richmond Street was short on details, only promising to celebrate “the greatest artist of the century” and accompanied by a jewel-encrusted brooch–the whole package a brand of mysterious opulence that another Saturday night of gin rummy just can’t match.
Blanche Devereaux’s passionate dalliances are as plentiful as hot Southern nights, and surely one can’t be expected to remember all of one’s suitors. But when the Girls disembark the party’s ferry at a small Biscayne Bay island and meet their secretive host, the memories come flooding back: she a Radio City Rockette in her twenties, he the poor artist who could offer her nothing but his love. Fate drove them apart, but Declan, now a famous artist El Toro, professes that Blanche has always been his muse.
Featured prominently in his artworks and central to El Toro’s return to the apex of the art world, Blanche is thrilled to have been such an inspiring figure to this man. But looking around at a party filled with those who have made their livings off the artist’s fame–his assistant, his art dealer, his greatest critic, and more–Dorothy isn’t so sure they’re welcome on the island after all.
When a tropical storm knocks power out across the island, an optimistic Blanche proclaims that everyone looks better by candlelight anyway. But when Declan is found dead the next morning, all eyes are on her, his supposed muse of thirty-plus years. Trapped at the estate with the other guests–suspects all–the Girls must band together to find the true killer and get back to pleasant evenings of card games and cheesecake.

Departure(s): The new book from the Booker Prize-winning, Sunday Times bestselling author
Departure(s) is a work of fiction – but that doesn’t mean it’s not true.
It is the story of a man called Stephen and a woman called Jean, who fall in love when they are young and again when they are old. It is the story of an elderly Jack Russell called Jimmy, enviably oblivious to his own mortality.
It is also the story of how the body fails us, whether through age, illness, accident or intent. And it is the story of how experiences fade into anecdotes, and then into memory. Does it matter if what we remember really happened? Or does it just matter that it mattered enough to be remembered?
It begins at the end of life – but it doesn’t end there. Ultimately, it’s about the only things that ever really mattered: how we find happiness in this life, and when it is time to say goodbye.

Divine Union: The Essential Path to Oneness (Audio Download): Paul Selig, Paul Selig, Macmillan Audio: Amazon.co.uk: Books
Move beyond separation and fear into a state of divine union, with renowned channel Paul Selig. This program is read by the author.
I am in union with the Source of all things. This may be the Guides’ most important teaching to date, and Paul Selig channels this crucial message in his newest audiobook, Divine Union. A standalone audiobook to highlight the importance of the concept, Divine Union teaches listeners to move beyond their inherited and clung-to ideas of separation in favor of unity, cohesion, and peace.
Though it may seem inevitable that humans will build walls between one another and fear those who appear different from ourselves, the Guides promise a future in which true connection and union is achieved. Once we realize that all humans are beings through which the Divine flows, fear-based separation will crumble, clearing the way for a better world.
The Guides’ message is nothing short of revolutionary: humanity is at a time of reckoning, and we must face ourselves and our creations in order to recognize the shared divinity within us all.

Dogs, Boys and Other Things I’ve Cried About
From the social media superstar behind @SimonSits, Isabel Klee – known for her heartwarming tales of dog rescue – comes an utterly winning memoir about a twentysomething woman’s search for true love in New York City and the dogs who helped her find it.
Isabel Klee had always wanted to live in New York City. At age 20, she got her chance, ditching her college upstate for Marymount Manhattan and moved into a tiny basement apartment on the Upper East Side. Dog-obsessed since childhood, her first postgrad job was managing content for the incredibly popular account The Dogist, and something clicked into place: a career focused on helping dogs was the new dream.
Isabel quickly found a passion for using her own growing platform to help rescue pups find their forever homes. At the same time, she was caught up in a whirlwind of friendships, parties, fickle boyfriends and grand romances, which she recounts in honest, tender and sometimes devastating chapters about the search for love and belonging.
Isabel’s first true love, though, was Simon, a fluffy puppy who’d been saved from the meat trade. As the highs and lows of this turbulent decade hit Isabel, it was Simon who kept her grounded. Together, Isabel and Simon created an online community of dog-lovers, fellow foster advocates and girls just trying to get through the trenches of their twenties.
In Dogs, Boys and Other Things I’ve Cried About, Isabel weaves together the stories of her foster dogs – and the challenges she helped them overcome – with tales of bad dates, hard decisions and great loves in New York City, all leading to a happy ending not only for the rescue pups, but for Isabel herself.
