Clowders by Vanessa Morgan (43 Reviews)    Price verified 42 minutes ago

Clervaux, Luxembourg. This secluded, picturesque town in the middle of Europe is home to more cats than people. For years, tourists have flocked to this place - also known as "cat haven" - to meet the cats and buy cat-related souvenirs. When Aidan, Jess and their five-year-old daughter, Eleonore, move from America to Clervaux, it seems as if they've arrived in paradise. It soon becomes evident, though, that the inhabitants' adoration of their cats is unhealthy. According to a local legend, each time a cat dies, nine human lives are taken as a punishment. To tourists, these tales are supernatural folklore, created to frighten children on cold winter nights. But for the inhabitants of Clervaux, the danger is horrifyingly real. Initially, Aidan and Jess regard this as local superstition, but when Jess runs over a cat after a night on the town, people start dying, one by one, and each time it happens, a clowder of cats can be seen roaming the premises. Are they falling victim to the collective paranoia infecting the entire town? Or is something unspeakably evil waiting for them?

Steaming Volume Six: King Paul's Big, Nasty, Unofficial Book of Reactor and Engineering Memories (The King Paul Series 6) by Ram Tuli (21 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Alas, the Steaming series is coming to an end. This will be the second to last volume. This edition contains letters from 6/27/06 to 6/1/08. As you can see, the frequency of correspondence is now starting to greatly diminish. I didn't know it then but the KP Site was starting to take on water. Technology was rapidly advancing and it was leaving me behind. Hell, I was still editing my webpages the old-fashioned way, using a 1999 version of Microsoft Frontpage. This dog was too old to learn new tricks and it was starting to show. I love the letters in Volume 6. They're about people I knew and loved, places I knew and loved, and the special times I had with these people in those places. Almost everyone from my era is now present and accounted for and most agree they remember only the good times. Even veterans of the Newport News overhaul seem less jaded. Time had finally softened the Norfolk nightmare. Could it be that even the Y2K gang was becoming sentimental too? It sure seemed that way. The Big E's last generation of nukes and engineers were reporting aboard during this era of correspondence. These yarns (and the ones that had been coming in for six years) were now required reading. The KP Site was a poorly kept secret. Even the scrambled-egg-on-the-hat types were secretly lurking. A tale uploaded one day was discussed the next down in the plants, up in the wardrooms, and even in some remote NAVSEA office. We 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s old salts might not have contributed much to overall plant safety, but we certainly inspired many a 3rd Class Petty Officer to accept his or her lot in life and strive to be noteworthy on a ship that had a history like no other. Grandfathers, fathers, and now sons and daughters could brag that they steamed on the mighty Enterprise. No other ship of the line had sailors that loved their home more. How could that be? The Big E was a genuine shitshow. Everything was FUBAR. HP-tape and J-B Weld held most of it together. There ...

The Merrow of Lake Michigan by Claire O. Fahey (Madison Ready Publishing) (260 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Joey Fagan is certain of only two things. The mayor of Chicago will be assassinated at the end of the week, and she is stuck in the year 1893. What she doesn't know is how she landed 100 years back in time, or why Peter Hastings, the man trying to help her, shares some eerie similarities to her dead husband. When Joey, perhaps unwisely, revealed the year of her origins it didn't sit well with her host. Her effort to convince him by predicting the mayor's murder only made matters worse. Now her sanity is in question, and everything she does puts it further into doubt. One of the few bright spots in the whole situation is William, Peter's five year-old son, but he is a stark reminder that she left a son of her own back in 1993. Stuck in the past and desperate to return to her own Chicago, Joey stumbles her way through a time when women had a barely-audible voice, and very few options. Armed with nothing but her wits, Joey must navigate the rigid waters of the Victorian era while she tries to prevent a murder and find her way home.

Grant The Forgotten Hero by Charles Henry Vessey (67 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

"Castigated by some, immortalized by few and forgotten by most." Hardly a fitting tribute to one of America's greatest heroes. Grant The Forgotten Hero chronicles the story of Ulysses S. Grant during the American Civil War. Ask an American what they remember about Ulysses S. Grant and they will recall that he was a heavy drinker, not that he was the President, nor one of the world's greatest generals. An unusual legacy for the man most responsible for preserving this great nation. This book portrays Grant as an incredibly modest and humble man, perhaps the reason his true character failed to shine through. It tackles the old myths, head on, through logical analysis of the historical record and disproves most of the legend that has distorted his extraordinary military accomplishments. During the war, Grant captured three enemy armies intact and came within a whisker of capturing four, a feat unequalled in history and over so great a foe as Robert E. Lee. Ulysses S. Grant was one of America's greatest heroes, who sadly most Americans have forgotten.

The Mango Tree (The Harding Hall Mysteries Book 3) by Ram Tuli (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? There's only one way to find out: Shake the Mango Tree! It's May, 1941. Sir Lars Harding's is now a diligent and well-respected gentleman. His factories work around-the-clock, making ordnance casings, rifle barrels, and tank turrets. He even has one that assembles radio valves. Combined with the steamship company he acquired in Footsteps in the Fog, he's doing more than most to help England win the war. Loris, meanwhile, is idling away at Harding Hall with his wife and young daughter. Like the wrens singing outside his window in a nearby tree, Loris doesn't know -- or care -- that the world had been turned upside down. Everything changes when Loris thinks Lars might have been killed in a bombing raid. He hurries back to London and finds Lars hard at work. Not only is Lars industrious-looking, he's thin, well dressed, and his moustache and sideburns are neatly trimmed. Lars is a new man! Even the stewards and other members of the Athenæum Club treat him with dignity and respect now. Loris decides to remain in London and help Lars run his factories. As loyal readers of the earlier books will remember, heirs to Harding Hall have been dying bizarre deaths, one after another. Each heir's death could be explained as accidental, or as karmic payback for his sins. Yet, the way each death conveniently benefits the next inheritor of Harding Hall's immense wealth, accident seems unlikely. Certainly, no one believes that to be true. Lars is far too busy to worry about the unsolved murders for now. England is at war and he has factories to run. Then new information is learned. Harding Global Traders, a company founded by their late cousin, Hillel, is discovered to be a front for the Secret Service. Lars and Loris suspect that Hillel and Hoshaiah might have been spies, and their deaths weren't so natural after all. Lars and Loris are soon convinced that not only were Hillel and Hoshaiah spies, but that they were somehow double-crossed by ...

Surviving Doodahville by Ashley Fontainne (15 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

"Filled with powerful scenes and great characters! Brings the '83 Old South to vivid life. One of my all-time favorite reads! Loved it! ~ Janelle Taylor, NY Times Bestselling author "... full of surprises, twists, turns and none of them are predictable. This is a fun read with entertaining events that will have you laughing out loud and perhaps remembering your past. But the story's also a bit of history about racial injustice in the 1980's and a bit of gender bias with believable examples of unfair treatment set in the past, but still believable today. I recommend... to anyone who enjoys a laugh out loud book that can't be put down as well as one telling the story of cultural past scars." - Gail Kamer for Readers' Favorite "More than just a coming-of-age story or new adult romance, Surviving Doodahville explores family bonds, racial barriers, and just how much some are willing to sacrifice for others. The tale is full of humor, action and a touch of mystery, making it a fun romp into the past." Jeff LaFerney, award-winning author of Jumper The summer of 1983 -- the era of big debt, big hair, and big dreams. Seventeen-year-old Kassandra Lawson is a Southern California girl, enjoying the summer before her high school senior year, thinking life is great. But then tragic news arrives, sending Kee and her parents to Daltville, Arkansas, to a funeral and more news that turns all their lives upside down. An unexpected and unwanted move to the humid, bug-infested south is almost too much to deal with, but she discovers a racist, backwoods, tiny hick community more famous for her aunt's moonshine than for its progressive thinking. What's more is that everyone seems to be hiding secrets. Dangerous ones. Illegal ones. Violent ones. When her family arrives, the dominoes start falling and the intrigue and suspense build to a remarkable ending. A surprise gift, a boy, and revealed town secrets help Kee, her family, and her small community to learn, grow, and find love.

Pamela Olson escaped from rural Oklahoma and fulfilled her dream of studying physics at Stanford. But instead of feeling excited for what came next, she felt consumed by dread and confusion. This irresistible memoir chronicles her journey from aimless bartender to Ramallah-based journalist and foreign press coordinator for a Palestinian presidential candidate. With dizzying speed she found herself attending Yasser Arafat's funeral, sharing a holiday dinner with a suicide bomber's family, tour-guiding Jewish and Israeli friends around the West Bank, dating a Palestinian from a conservative Muslim village, being held at gunpoint and injured by a stun grenade, witnessing the 2005 Disengagement from inside the Gaza Strip, and watching Hamas (barely) win historic elections. The gripping narrative focuses not only on violence, terror, and politics but also on the daily rounds of house parties, concerts, barbecues, weddings, jokes, harvests, and romantic drama that happen in between.

The Ghost in the Mirror (Samuel Dexter Book 1) by Faith Gibson (318 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

What do you do when you have no memories of your life except the one moment that took everything away? My name is Dex and I'm a Marine. Somewhere in the horrors of the sand overseas, an explosion took out not only most of my unit but also my memories of everything that happened before that day. When my memories don't return, the explosion also ends my career in the military. That one moment costs me everything. Starting from scratch sucks. I don't even know what foods I like or what types of music I listen to. Am I a boxer or briefs man? Do I like women or men? I also have to figure out what I'm going to do with my life from this point on. While adjusting to my new life, I start seeing things -- things that no one else can see. I think that maybe my head injury caused more than amnesia. When one of my "visions" won't leave me alone, I have no choice but to believe in ghosts. Along with the ghosts during the day, at night I dream vividly of two men. But are these two men merely dreams, or are they memories? When one man steps through the door of my hospital room, I have the answer. This man literally tries to lead me down memory lane, culminating in a searing kiss. Too bad my brain isn't cooperating, because this man is breathtaking. With the help of my sassy grandmother, I begin to rebuild my life. I am Samuel Dexter, and these are my stories. WARNING: This book contains scenes that might be considered triggers for some. Sam is a Marine involved in an explosion. This book also (mildly) describes children being kidnapped in the past and their remains found later.

Hard Graft: Our fight against killer blood by Mike Niles (6 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

At a time of no hope, drastic change required a brand-new belief system. To abandon hope of a miracle and put faith in a stranger. Blood is essential to life. But what happens when there's a glitch in the system? Up to the 1960s, a child diagnosed with a severe blood disease had only a 1-in-10 chance of living to adulthood. It was an almost certain death sentence. By the 1980s, a child with the exact same disorder had a 9-in-10 chance of survival. Hard Graft is a true story chronicled for the first-time. It explores the previously untold agony and resilience of Liz Bostic - a mother who refused to accept the deadly diagnosis facing her infant son, Simon. She started something momentous which, in partnership with others, transformed survival rates for people with blood diseases across the world. We learn how scientific world-firsts and fortunate medical discoveries led her family to the brink of salvation and how self-sabotage nearly forced everything to fall apart. 2023 is the 50th anniversary of the world's first successful non-related bone marrow transplant - that of Simon Bostic in April 1973. All these years later, however, the treatment faces a fresh crisis in the wake of COVID-19.

All Signs Lead To Lucy by Julieann Dove (18 Reviews)    Price verified 15 minutes ago

After living a life of failed, predictable relationships, Lucy Fister took the advice of the psychic who charged sixty dollars for ten minutes: start seeking men who are the absolute opposite of who she dated. It made sense, but paying for the obvious meant it might work. Tyler Tolliver met that criteria. He was an out of work actor who'd invented the love language 'have a good time.' They had a whirlwind relationship and after four months, he proposed, holding a bread tie for a ring, and giving the argument that the lease on his loft was expiring. One year into her marriage with Tyler, and Lucy was tired of playing Xbox, clubbing, and watching movies before reading the book. She missed conversations deeper than picking where they'd eat, and being in bed before midnight. When her estranged best friend, Vanessa asked her and Tyler to go on a week-long trip to the Caribbean with her new fiancé, Martin VanLeer, Lucy accepted the invitation. Fate scatters people and plans like a ceiling fan scatters loose papers. On the eve of the trip, Tyler and Vanessa respectively were called to fulfill work related tasks. The new plan was for them to meet up with Lucy and Vanessa's fiancé in a couple of days. One week is all it took for Martin and Lucy to fall in love. And for Lucy to realize that psychic was wrong -- she didn't need to find someone opposite of all the guys she dated, she needed to be warned of the millionaire engaged to her best friend. Because if they acted on this attraction, it meant destroying a marriage, a wedding, and a lifelong friendship.

When Dani Martina pops up in the Holidates app, she's perfect for the part. She speaks Italian and sarcasm almost as well as he does.
