\u201cWelcome to Westen. I\u2019m Lorna Doone. Yep, spelled just like the cookie and I own the Peaches \u2018N Cream Caf\u00e9 here in Westen. You might think nothing much happens in a small mid-western town, but as my friend Harriett says, things aren\u2019t always what they appear. Take our girl Emma for example\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n Emma Lewis has a lot on her plate. The single mother of two precocious twin boys and an aging mother who is having trouble getting through each day, the last thing Emma needs is a man in her life, especially a doctor. So when the town\u2019s doctor goes on vacation and his handsome nephew takes over, Emma is shocked to not only find him standing in her bedroom, but accusing her of being a neglectful parent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Chuck is a lazybones who works at a sandwich shop. Andy is a reporter who can’t quite seem to please his editor. Both have a knack for finding and solving mysteries, and there are plenty in the city of Lesser Redmond!<\/p>\n Thirty super quick mysteries you can solve yourself!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n People, dogs, and what lies between them<\/p>\n Ellie, a young woman writing her philosophy dissertation, becomes disrupted by echoes from the past. She follows the voices replaying in her mind to an introspective examination of her childhood and adolescence within her extended family. This intimate inspection of relationships between family members\u2013and the family’s dogs\u2013leads her to uncover three generations of the family secrets and the focal points of tension in the family’s history.<\/p>\n A story of love, separation and longing<\/p>\n A Dog\u2019s Luck is a unique, moving and thought-provoking work of literary art that deals with existential issues in a heartfelt, high-tempo and dynamic style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Alice Augustine runs the oldest bookstore in the historic district of Natchitoches and believes technology is the root of most problems. If only more people would turn off the Tv and shut down the computer, the world wouldn’t be in the mess it’s in. She wishes she could get the teens she loves to step away from the screens and hold on to their Creole culture. The only person who seems to understand her passion for classic literature is the mysterious website owner, Browning Wordsworth Keats.<\/p>\n Paul Olivier comes back to his home town determined to show the people of Cane River that he’s not the poor, nerdy kid he once was. He’s made a fortune designing video games and opening a giant electronics store right in the snooty historic district will be the crowning glory of his career. Unfortunately, one bookish anti-tech fanatic has decided to do everything she can to keep that from happening. Even worse, she doesn’t know that in cyber space, they’re kindred spirits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n For fans of 50 Shades Of Grey and contemporary romance\u2026 the Billionaire\u2019s Seduction series!<\/p>\n Lily Ross was having another miserable day at work when tall, dark, and stunningly handsome walked in and swept her off her feet.<\/p>\n Over one passionate weekend, mysterious Connor Brooks leads Lily through a world of sensual delights and showers her with wealth and extravagance beyond her wildest dreams.<\/p>\n But every forbidden fruit comes with a price.<\/p>\n Connor is not the man he claims to be, and dangerous figures from his past are lurking in the shadows, waiting to destroy him \u2013 and Lily, too, if she gets in their way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n ONE … terrible mudslide Amanda hadn’t expected snow for Christmas on the Oregon Coast, but her first winter in Ravenwood Cove brings out long-dead secrets that someone is desperately trying to hide…no matter the cost. Hot chocolate, merry decorations, and purring cats give way to police investigations and a search for a ruthless killer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n We all know the basics of punctuation. Or do we? A look at most neighborhood signage tells a different story. Through sloppy usage and low standards on the internet, in email, and now text messages, we have made proper punctuation an endangered species. In Eats, Shoots & Leaves, former editor Lynne Truss dares to say, in her delightfully urbane, witty, and very English way, that it is time to look at our commas and semicolons and see them as the wonderful and necessary things they are. This is a book for people who love punctuation and get upset when it is mishandled. From the invention of the question mark in the time of Charlemagne to George Orwell shunning the semicolon, this lively history makes a powerful case for the preservation of a system of printing conventions that is much too subtle to be mucked about with.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Drawing on cutting-edge research from the fields of social psychology, behavioral economics, and organizational behavior, Sway<\/i> reveals dynamic forces that influence every aspect of our personal and business lives, including loss aversion (our tendency to go to great lengths to avoid perceived losses), the diagnosis bias (our inability to reevaluate our initial diagnosis of a person or situation), and the \u201cchameleon effect\u201d (our tendency to take on characteristics that have been arbitrarily assigned to us).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Did she once have a sister? Has her mother lied all these years?<\/b><\/p>\n After a painful divorce, Maisey Lazarow returns to Fairham, the small island off the South Carolina coast where she grew up. She goes there to heal\u2014and to help her brother, Keith, a deeply troubled man who’s asked her to come home. But she refuses to stay in the family house. The last person she wants to see is the wealthy, controlling mother she escaped years ago.<\/p>\n Instead, she finds herself living next door to someone else she’d prefer to avoid\u2014Rafe Romero, the wild, reckless boy to whom she lost her virginity at sixteen. He’s back on the island, and to her surprise, he’s raising a young daughter alone. Maisey’s still attracted to him, but her heart’s too broken to risk\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n A comprehensive guide to making pizza, covering nine different regional styles–including standards like Neapolitan, Roman, and Chicago, as well as renowned pizza sub-specialties like St. Louis and Californian–from chef, 12-time world Pizza Champion Tony Gemignani.<\/p>\n Everyone loves pizza! From fluffy Sicilian pan pizza to classic Neapolitan margherita with authentic charred edges, and from Chicago deep-dish to cracker-thin, the pizza spectrum is wide and wonderful, with something to suit every mood and occasion.

The Pizza Bible<\/i> is a complete master class in making delicious, perfect, pizzeria-style pizza at home, with more than seventy-five recipes covering every style you know and love, as well as those you\u2019ve yet to fall in love with.<\/p>\n In one of the most gripping financial narratives in decades, Andrew Ross Sorkin-a New York Times<\/i> columnist and one of the country’s most respected financial reporters-delivers the first definitive blow- by-blow account of the epochal economic crisis that brought the world to the brink. Through unprecedented access to the players involved, he re-creates all the drama and turmoil of these turbulent days, revealing never-before-disclosed details and recounting how, motivated as often by ego and greed as by fear and self-preservation, the most powerful men and women in finance and politics decided the fate of the world’s economy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n “Celebrity Cop” Gabe Quinn is working Robbery-Homicide after a personal tragedy has left him emotionally bare. He’s raw, but resolved to catch a serial killer stalking the streets of two major cities. With cryptic clues left behind at each crime scene, Gabe is faced with the seemingly impossible task of piecing together the bizarre puzzle – following signs that point toward a killer whose motive questions everything he believes in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Just months after Rebekah Roberts was born, her mother, an Hasidic Jew from Brooklyn, abandoned her Christian boyfriend and newborn baby to return to her religion. Neither Rebekah nor her father have heard from her since. Now a recent college graduate, Rebekah has moved to New York City to follow her dream of becoming a big-city reporter. But she’s also drawn to the idea of being closer to her mother, who might still be living in the Hasidic community in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n In the tradition of Dava Sobel’s Longitude<\/em> comes sailing expert David Barrie’s compelling and dramatic tale of invention and discovery\u2014an eloquent elegy to one of the most important navigational instruments ever created, and the daring mariners who used it to explore, conquer, and map the world.<\/p>\n Since its invention in 1759, a mariner’s most prized possession has been the sextant. A navigation tool that measures the angle between a celestial object and the horizon, the sextant allowed sailors to pinpoint their exact location at sea.<\/p>\n David Barrie chronicles the sextant’s development and shows how it not only saved the lives of navigators in wild and dangerous seas, but played a pivotal role in their ability to map the globe.<\/p>\n Food coach Susan Marque shares simple, fun-to-sip recipes to quench your thirst and keep you healthy<\/p>\n Curious about incorporating fruit infused water into your daily routine?
