New Book Releases: March 10th to March 16th, 2025

Welcome to the 2nd week of March! It’s a slightly quieter week than we’ve seen recently, with “only” 350+ books releasing.

Hopefully, you’ll find something to keep you occupied in that selection. Otherwise – you may want to start considering the fact that you aren’t a reader!

Lucy Score starts a new series this week. The #1 New York Times Bestselling author of Things We Hide From the Light releases Story Of My Life.

This is the first novel in the Story Lake series, a Small Town Romance series.

A romance novelist with writer’s block impulsively buys a crumbling house in a quirky small town, only to find herself tangled in local drama, home renovations, and fake-dating a grumpy contractor for “research.”

As sparks fly and she starts living her own love story, she must decide if real-life happily-ever-afters are worth the risk.

How about a standalone, dark, romantic thriller? Then there’s no one better to write one of those than Christina Dodd, who releases Girl Anonymous this week.

Maarja has spent her life running from the past, but returning to the scene of her mother’s fiery sacrifice puts her in the path of Dante Arundel—the ruthless heir to the family her mother destroyed.

When she saves his mother from a burning building, she earns his trust, but as their dangerous attraction ignites, she must decide whether passion is worth the risk of being exposed.

Speaking of standalones, Chris Bohjalian, author of novels such as The Flight Attendant and The Princess of Las Vegas, has a new standalone out this week, titled The Jackal's Mistress.

This one is a historical thriller. When Confederate soldier’s wife Libby Steadman discovers a gravely wounded Union officer near her home, she faces an impossible choice—leave him to die or risk treason to save him. As she nurses him back to health, the line between enemy and ally blurs, forcing her to confront the true cost of war and the limits of love.

Simon Scarrow releases the latest gripping WW2 thriller in his Berlin Wartime serieson the 13th, featuring Criminal Inspector Horst Schenke.

In A Death In Berlin, Schenke fights to keep criminals off the streets while secretly shielding his forbidden relationship with a Jewish woman.

But when he refuses to turn a blind eye to gang wars protected by high-ranking Nazis, powerful enemies use his darkest secrets to force him into submission—leaving him with an impossible choice: compromise his morals or risk a fate worse than death.

Sara Blædel has the latest novel in the excellent Louise Rick series out this week, titled A Mother's Love.

Detective Louise Rick’s first case as head of Denmark’s Mobile Task Unit turns urgent when innkeeper Dorthe Hyllested is found murdered—and a secret nursery is discovered in her apartment. However, no one knew of any child. With an untested team and a forced reunion with her ex, Louise must unravel a web of secrets tied to a mysterious cabin in the woods before the missing child vanishes forever.

Here’s all 350+ new books releasing this week:
