It Happened One Night: (Adventures in Blind Dating Book One) by Christine S. Feldman 4.4 Stars (150 Reviews)    Price verified 2 minutes ago

Who has time for dating these days? Certainly not struggling entrepreneur Paisley Jameson, who has way too much on her plate to pay any real attention to her shriveling social life. And not mechanic Joe Spencer either, who has a lot on his mind with both the family business and family in general. But neither can say no to the beloved mutual acquaintance who wants to set them both up on a blind date. Which is too bad, because they both kind of wish they had said no when they show up for the dinner date and realize they've met before--and not under happy circumstances. But fate seems determined to prove that they're not so wrong for each other after all, because in spite of the intentions of both Paisley and Joe to nip this whole unfortunate blind date thing in the bud and go their separate ways, events transpire to keep them together for an evening involving muggers, foot-chases, and even a high-speed trip to the ER-- And that's all before dessert. Dating: it's not for wimps...

Glorie was placed undercover to spy on a gangster. But, he caught her. And now he's keeping her. Before Glorie could even begin the police academy she was plucked out and sent to work undercover in a saloon.

Suppressing the atrocious act that changed her life, the horror that made her fear all men, while she is working late one night, thieves break in to rob the saloon and they grab Glorie with the intent of assaulting her and then killing her. Shocked at who comes to her rescue, before she can breathe a sigh of relief she is bound and tossed into a car that races away into the frightening night. Joze. Something continues to terrorize Glorie's dreams, and he is going to discover what or who it is and fix it, for good. Destroy what had hurt her so badly that it still clutched her in its ghastly throes. But, for now, the more Glorie avoided him, the angrier he grew. It kicked him in the gut that she was obviously at least a little attracted to him, he knew he could win her over if she'd let him in just a hair. But, because she believed him to be this cutthroat ruthless hood, and she was a goody two-shoes, inexperienced cop, she would have nothing to do with him. Not to mention that little thing about him kidnapping her. And keeping her. Against her will. When the really bad guys come for Glorie, will Joze risk it all, his businesses, his life, his freedom, to save her?

An Unexpected Gift by Daisy J. Morgan 3.8 Stars (5 Reviews)    Price verified 5 minutes ago

Ezra Murdock had a secret. A secret he guarded as closely as a precious diamond. Ezra used to have it all: academic success, a prominent family, a house with a pool. At first glance, his life looked like a dream. Until his father got locked up for embezzlement and domestic abuse, and the Murdocks lost everything. Three years later, Ezra is a struggling social worker, spending his nights at the office to process as many families in need as possible. Between helping strangers and taking care of his destitute mother, there isn't much room in his life for anything else. Until Kyle Lewis shows up at his door, bringing every ghost of Ezra's past with him. Firefighter, hero, survivor, Kyle has always been everything Ezra isn't: the better student, the better athlete, the better man. And the person who spoke up against Ezra's father, destroying his family for good. Which is why, when Kyle claims to have discovered his secret, Ezra's life is thrown into disarray: because Kyle Lewis may have ruined his life -- but, three years ago, Ezra Murdock saved his. And now, Kyle knows it. Between improvised dinner dates, crushing defeats at bowling, piles of embarrassing presents on Ezra's desk, and the buds of a tentative not-quite-friendship beginning to bloom, Daisy J. Morgan's The Unexpected Gift is a gem among indie queer love stories. #LGBTQIA+ #ENEMIESTOLOVERS #GRUMPY/SUNSHINE

Harriet: A Jane Austen Variation (Warleigh Hall Press Jane Austen Series) by Alice McVeigh 4.1 Stars (283 Reviews)    Price verified 5 minutes ago

"McVeigh displays a brilliant, spot-on command of Austen's diction and tone." - Kirkus Reviews Harriet is an intriguing and original take on Jane Austen's immortal Emma - told from the viewpoints of Harriet Smith and Jane Fairfax. *Starred Editor's Pick on Publishers Weekly *Finalist for Foreword Indies' Book of the Year *Finalist for Chanticleer's Chatelaine Award *Gold medal in Historical Fiction Company's 2023 Book Awards *Gold medallist, Global Book Awards *selected as one of the top 100 books of 2022, Shelf Unbound magazine Emma, a privileged young heiress, decides to mentor Harriet Smith, a pretty boarding-school pupil, and to matchmake her as eligibly as she can... But how is she to guess that Harriet has a secret? Meanwhile, the brilliant, penniless Jane Fairfax consents to a clandestine engagement with Frank Churchill - though not daring to confess, even to him, that she is being relentlessly pursued by her best friend's husband. Harriet sidelines Emma herself in favour of the ingenious Harriet and the fascinating Jane Fairfax. It is Emma - but an Emma with a surprisingly believable twist in its tail. "McVeigh draws inspiration from her love of Jane Fairfax, and she certainly paints a fuller, more complete picture that gives welcome complexity to the musically talented and fragile young woman with an uncertain future. Harriet, though, is the character who shines brightest in this reimagining . In Austen's original, Harriet is willing to do anything to please Emma, but here she is a character of great depth, hiding facets of her personality and skills, often catching what those around her miss, and ultimately facing a compelling romantic decision. McVeigh again is on point with both the writing style, language, and consistency in Austen's characters, making this a treat for anyone who loves the originals."

After moving next door to her sister in Pearl Lake, nurse Kim Petersen finds working at the village clinic is about as fun as watching paint dry, but it has its perks. She meets Dean Goodbody, a handsome ex-US Marshall whose body does match his name. He can verbally spar with her like no other all while making her heart go aflutter. When Dean buys an old decrepit manor that overlooks the lake, he asks Kim if she wants to move in. Despite the talk around the village that it's haunted, she reluctantly accepts. Kim has an agenda. She needs to convince Dean that she is a short, delightful mix of plump and sass; the perfect woman for him. A little hard to do when Dean, being the sexy man that he is has more secrets than Area 51. What's a girl to do? Will she be able to convince Dean he's in love with her before the ghosts of the manor chase her away? Hey all, it's Kim. I'm letting you know that there is a bit of cussing in this book. More than a bit, actually. It's me after all. Other than that there are a few ghosts, nothing really to trigger anyone. So if you're good with the odd swear word, no f-bombs, well, there is one. But I didn't say it, Mark did and in his defense, it was totally warranted. That's it, I promise and you should like it just fine.

Along the way, the book explores institutional cover-up, violence against women, teen angst, and campus evangelism in a secular age.

Harley & Dylan: Mortimer Security IX by Josephine Barly 3.0 Stars (9 Reviews)    Price verified 11 hours ago

Dylan Dearing, journalist, is used to certain aspects of his job. While he hasn't encountered that many threatening situations, he knows that they come with the turf. But one of them goes a step too far, and his friend Heath Lerner suggests hiring Mortimer Security, seeing as how he won't let go of the investigation. Harley Manning thinks that being a journalist and investigating corruption tips can lead to threats. She doesn't think it's a big deal. Then she meets Dylan Dearing, she learns more about his work, and she knows she has to keep an eye over him while he gets to the bottom of things. It's also not a bad thing that his looks almost make her giggle and that he's as nice as he is good-looking. But when a body falls out of a building and the threats suddenly carry more violence that either anticipated, the clock is running, both on the investigation and on Dylan's life. Warning: There are explicit romantic scenes. For mature audiences (+18). -------------- Excerpt Dylan Dearing, thirty-two year old journalist, relied on his instincts more often than not when working on a story. He was usually good at figuring out who was lying and who was telling the truth, and when a source showed up with a scoop, he had an almost perfect track of figuring out if there was an actual story behind it or if it was a simple rumor. On an early March cold Friday night, Dylan was working on a political story that included bribes and money laundering through public construction contracts. He had received an anonymous email telling him to look into specific contracts, although it wasn't easy to tell who had been the only -- if there was only one -- politician involved in the actual crimes. While he had been quick to assess the scoop and deem it investigation-worthy, what had put the final nail on the coffin had been another anonymous email telling him to forget the story. He had scoffed and decided then and there that he would get to the bottom of things. As he returned ...

The story of a picturesque village in the south of England that's lost its heart and a year that changes everything... From the window of his pebblestone cottage, Arthur Makepeace can see everything that goes on in the village; it's a place where he channels his thoughts - a place where he feels close to Alice, his wife of over 60 years. There were many happy times in Pebblestown before the planned takeover bid by members of the parish council to re-develop the village and re-brand it as Truelove Hills.

The mansion on the hill is planning to offer high-class accommodation in addition to an à la carte restaurant. However, Cindy's Bakery and the Post Office & General Store will struggle to survive the planned changes. Arthur is distraught, his world is crumbling around him; he's lost his beloved Alice, his four granddaughters have moved away, and his son's business, the Solent Sea Guest House, is at threat of closure if Arthur's suspicions are proven right; that members of the parish council are corrupt. Can Arthur find a way to disrupt their plans? Alongside cases of deception and conspiracy, there are heart-warming acts of kindness and bravery that raise the visibility of Truelove Hills beyond all measure.

Miss Moffitt and the Thunderbird by Charles Bennett Price verified 13 hours ago

Miss Moffitt and the Thunderbird is a 1950s-era crime and love story. A suave crime travels from Hollywood to an Arizona guest ranch to murder a gangster who double-crossed a crime syndicate. Here the executioner meets Miss Moffitt, a naïve truth-seeker with an interest in Indian mythology. Intrigued by the woman's innocence and naivete, the gangster delays the execution to engage in a romantic dalliance. Meanwhile Miss Moffitt exerts a transformative influence which entangles the gangster in memories of his past. The situation grows more precarious when a Los Angeles police detective arrives to prevent the execution. Advised of her dangerous association with the gangster, Miss Moffitt must balance her love against a desire for revenge at the violation of her trust. The story plays out near an Indian cliff ruin, home to the mythological Thunderbird whose supernatural presence influences Miss Moffitt's judgement. Thriller screenwriter Charles Bennett was at the peak of his narrative powers when he wrote this novel in 1949-1950. Having succeeded as an actor, playwright, and screenwriter, he had been invited to Hollywood on the strength and success of his "Modern Thriller" scenario, a "hero's journey" construction typified by Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps. Bennett wrote the novel and screenplay from his experiences of Hollywood society, his interest in the Southwest, and after meeting gangster Bugsy Siegel, The Film Industry optioned the screenplay on four occasions, but various disappointments intervened, and Miss Moffitt and the Thunderbird was eventually forgotten. Much later, Bennett revised and shopped the screenplay Thunderbird. But his name recognition having faded, neither the novel nor screenplay were sold. In addition to its intriguing story, Miss Moffitt interests us today for these other reasons. • It reminds us of what Charles Bennett brought to early Hitchcock: the playwright's style, a beleaguered heroine, concern for truth, chase, and an ...

Southern England. Summer. 1940. A young soldier, Ken Kendrick, is shell-shocked after escaping Hitler's invasion of France. Now stationed near the country town of Sidcup, he is befriended by the Vigar family during a brief respite from duty. Although attracted to Betty, their shy teenage daughter, Ken draws the attention of her glamorous older sister, Ginny. By angering her upper class suitor, Raymond Delafort, a tragic chain of events is set in motion. After a year of unprecedented victories across Europe, the Nazis expect to defeat the British quickly. The air battle commences and the RAF reels from every blow dealt by the mighty Luftwaffe. As a German bomber ace plans a devastating attack, everyone must face the horror of battle in their very own homes. How will the Vigars and the Delaforts survive the approaching storm? Can Ken conquer the horrors that haunt him, before they are made real again by war? What is Ginny's secret and how far will she go to get what she wants? Set during the pivotal days of the Battle Of Britain, Waiting for Moonlight is about ordinary people caught up in truly extraordinary times. It's a tale of fear and of hope, of hatred and of love, it's a coming of age story and also history's oldest story... about the best and the worst of human nature.

Written with a skillful documentary drama style; Clive Jefferys recreates a bygone world and quickly makes it feel surprisingly familiar. He sits you alongside a Luftwaffe bomber crew, straps you into an RAF fighter and invites you to witness bewildering events unfold in a quiet Kentish town.

Margin Street Zeros - the complete series: Ye Gods And Little Wishes; God Riddance; Godlings; Demiurges. by Robin Banks 4.7 Stars (7 Reviews)    Price verified 23 minutes ago

My family is pretty simple, when you get used to it. There's me, Frankie, Ben, and AK. Frankie and I are with each other, and Ben and AK are with each other, but not like that. They don't want to be with each other like that, though, so it's cool, even though it took me a while to get used to it. Ben and I are best friends, and so are Ben and Frankie. Frankie and AK are also good friends, largely because Frankie is the friendliest person ever and a natural wonder, but AK is pretty cool, too. AK and I don't always get on, but we try.I like people of all genders, and so did Frankie, but now that we're together they really only like me. Ben also thought that he liked me, but that's because he hadn't got himself quite figured out. I like Ben a lot, but not like I like Frankie, and that used to be super awkward until we straightened it all out. AK doesn't really like anyone - not like that, anyway. Mostly he likes sci-fi, brewing his own booze, and chilling. Somehow, it all works out. We're all university students, but AK isn't actualy enrolled, because he doesn't legally exist. We live in our house because a librarian rescued me from a snow storm. We have three semi-domesticated raccoons, but that's not really our fault; they lost the ability to speak, and now we feel responsible for them. Oh, and Frankie can spot lies and teleport, and they could technically break reality, but they don't want to, so that's not an issue. We can all open magical portals, and AK is the god of turnips, but we don't hold that against him. It's all good, really. This is the story of how we got there.
