From the highly acclaimed , award winning author of the Girls Who Dare and the Daring Daughters, Emma V Leech, comes the exciting new series about the sons of the Girls Who Dare, Wicked Sons. Their mothers dared all for love... Their sisters did the same. What will the sons do for the women they love... A Wicked Son... Tall, dark and handsome, ridiculously wealthy, and the heir to a title. With so many blessings in his life, for this Wicked Son there is very little point in being anything more than ornamental. Or at least... that is what everyone believes, but this man has a secret. For a man in his position, if anyone discovered he is the mysterious author of The Ghosts of Castle Madruzzo, it would make him a figure of ridicule. His first novel was a tremendous success, and though his sales are excellent, he is aware he has never quite recaptured the dynamism of that first book. His readers don't seem to care and clamour for more, yet a certain lady critic keeps plaguing him with bad reviews. Somehow, she has guessed he is a nobleman, and delights in finding fault with his less elevated characters. A little time undercover should do the trick, to prove to himself, and the lady, that he is nothing if not committed to his art. A lady to be reckoned with... As the eldest-and only sensible sibling-in an overburdened family, Selina Davenport is holding onto sanity by a thread. The absolute last thing she needs is the presence in her life of an over privileged nob pretending to be something he's not. Like she can't tell at a glance that he is not the lowly gardener he is purporting to be. The nincompoop. That's not to say she isn't prepared to have a little fun at his expense. A game that gets out of hand... But when an immovable object meets an irresistible challenge, sparks are bound to fly, but will they burn down everything around them? This is the first book in the new series, Wicked Sons.

Quigley Tree: A Novel by Linda A Lavid (Plum Barn Press) (31 Reviews)    Price verified 12 minutes ago

Quigley Tree drops out of college. At age 23, she's been a complete failure. If she doesn't do something soon, her life will careen into a deep, dark, irrevocable void. Tick Tock. That soon is now. From the publisher: Five-Star Review from Readers' Favorite by Lorraine Cobcroft: Quigley Tree, the protagonist of Linda A. Lavid's novel of the same name, is a young woman with an odd name. A college dropout from a dysfunctional home, and recently escaped from a relationship with a narcissist, Quigley needs to find a new place to live, quickly. A unique idea sets her on a path to find accommodation in a motel in exchange for providing marketing help, but she eventually must admit she has no idea what she is doing. She is a complete mess and has no faith in her ability to do anything useful with her life. Yet a kindly couple takes her on, and, with their help, and the help of an elderly lady she befriends, she begins to reshape her life and overcome her self-destructive attitude. Quirky is the best adjective to describe this work by Linda A. Lavid. Quigley Tree is as quirky as the protagonist's name. Q (as Quigley calls herself) grew on me and won me over. I empathized with her deep feelings of insecurity and her struggle to come to terms with a fractured family and a chaotic childhood. As the story progressed, there were poignant moments, and Lavid presented some interesting perspectives on life. There were also touches of whimsy in this tale of resilience and determination. In classic literary fiction style, Lavid focuses her novel on the character and theme rather than the plot. Quigley Tree, the story, ambles along at a leisurely pace, tracking Q's growth and gradual acceptance of herself and adjustment of her attitude toward her defective mother. Pearls of wisdom are scattered in conversations with her elderly friend, her employers, and the man who eventually wins her affection. The ending tempted me to shed a few tears, touched by Quigley's care for her toddler ...

E il capo ha appena affidato loro un progetto su cui lavorare insieme? Ok, questa è una tragedia. Fine della storia. Forse, però, quei vestiti da novantenne bavarese mezza hippy e ipovedente nascondono forme di tutto rispetto; e forse, non c'è da giurarci, ma forse dietro quell'aria da pallone gonfiato viziato e figlio di papà c'è un cervello... Ma allora c'è una speranza! Sì, la speranza che la tragedia si trasformi d'un tratto in commedia e, chi lo sa, che tutto finisca come nella migliore delle favole.

Louisiana Hotshot's Stephanie Plum with Tabasco, dawlin'." -The Clarion Ledger The FIRST book in the Talba Wallis series by Edgar-Award winning author Julie Smith WANTED: HOTSHOT P.I. WITH NEAR SUPER-HUMAN SKILLS. Confirmed grump Eddie Valentino placed the ad. Hotshot twenty-something Talba Wallis knew exactly how to answer it. And thus was born the dynamic duo of New Orleans private detectives -- one cynical, sixty-five-year-old Luddite white dude with street smarts, and one young, bright-eyed, Twenty-First century African-American female poet, performance artist, mistress of disguise, and computer jock extraordinaire. Think Queen Latifah and Danny DeVito. In Louisiana Hotshot, their job is to hunt down a sociopath and pedophile who's molested the fourteen-year-old daughter of their client, hangs out on the ragged edges of the rap and recording industries, and has more powerful allies than a Cabinet member.

But she knows she won't sleep till she solves it -- and the truth will change her forever. "Smith generates plenty of tension as the savvy veteran and the eager novice combine their talents. But it is Smith's evocation of her beloved New Orleans and her deft exploration of her characters' intimate relationships that will lure readers to this series." -Publishers Weekly

Fortunately, poison is the very superfood of the satirist. Patty Friedmann, the reigning queen of black comedy, hits one out of the park with her family straight out of Tolstoy--unhappy in its own way, a uniquely twisted Southern way. Meet the Baileys. Born and bred in a working class New Orleans neighborhood, Zib and Wilson think the thick cloud of cigarette smoke enveloping their mother is what probably killed their father. Certainly the toxicity of Jerusha's dark, cynical attitudes has driven her children far from the nest. Wilson has escaped to Chicago, married a woman who hates him, converted to Judaism, and become a decorated professor of Organic Evolution. Zib, almost forty, has made it only as far as the Florida Panhandle, where she's an assistant manager at the local Winn-Dixie, doomed to fending off a sleazy boss given to late night phone calls. Only one person, as isolated as she is, shows Jerusha any affection: Dustin Puglia, chubby, wise, and fearless, a ten-year-old living next door with a poisonous mother of his own. Although Wilson and Zib have forged independent lives away from their mother -- as well as each other -- their father's death brings them back together for a darkly droll, yet heart-wrenching round of domestic insanity.

The great American novel is back in style and its name is: "Suga Sucka." ***CAUTION*** From the author: I hope you read this tale with an open mind and a forgiving heart. "Suga Sucka" touches on a lot of different themes (child neglect and abuse, racism, drug abuse, sexism, domestic abuse) which I caution readers who are sensitive to stories about abuse to proceed with caution. If you do decide to read this tale, my hope is that you find more love and forgiveness in your heart, and breathe. If you feel so inclined, please leave a review. Excerpt from "Suga Suga," by P.J. Douglas. He yelled and repeatedly moaned, "Kill me! Kill me! Kill me!" When you have exhausted every tear and shrieking cry that you can muster and are reduced to the low whimper of begging mercy, mortals will do anything to end some of the pain. Some pain manifested as physical trauma, while other pain presented as mental suffering. The hurt spreads throughout the ages, slowly eating one's humanity, one betrayal at a time. Like Satan himself took a knife called malice, sat on the front porch of hell and whittled away at your soul. Slowly, whistling and cutting away, Satan did not make something pretty but made the foul and wretched waste of woman and man. Gutted skeletons remained, bereft of any uncorrupted flesh or feelings of faith, light and hope. Sometimes, it's a quick job. It's clean and swift.

Turning Trick by Alison Beamon (3 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

"For each question you ask I get a piece of your clothing." I ran that through my brain. I could ask a couple of questions and then put it off until another time. I had on at least five items, so if I only asked three questions then I would be left in my underwear. Was I really considering this game of his? "Okay." I said not looking away from his eyes. "Three pieces." He said holding out his hand. I had not counted on that. "That's not fair." How could he count those questions when he did not even answer them? "You asked three questions." "But you did not answer them." I reminded him. Because telling me that my questions were stupid was not answering them. "It's a brotherhood." He said and I slipped out of my jacket. He took it and folded it over his arm. I hoped he did not mean to actually keep my clothes. "Longer than I can remember." That was not much of an answer but I slipped out of my skirt and held it out to him. Again he folded it over his arm. "Don't answer that question." I said holding up my hand. He smiled at me. "But it is such an easy one." It was not one that I meant to ask. "Have you ever killed someone?" If I was going to have to strip for his answers then my questions were going to get good. I was not going to bare it all for the stupid questions as he put it. "Yes, but not for the club." I wanted to ask him to explain that but as I slipped out of my blouse I knew I had to be careful with my questions. My blouse joined the rest of my clothes over his arm. I swallowed, I had to get this question right because it was going to be the last one I asked. Trick stood there just waiting as I considered it. "Chicken." Was that a question, or a statement? Either way he was right. I wanted to know what he meant by that, but I wanted to keep my underwear on. Shaking my head I took a deep breath. "You gotta know when to fold um."

In Darwin, Australia in the Northwest Territories, crocodiles aren't the only predators lurking about. Inspector Harry Chin, and his partner, Ash Friday, a fierce Aboriginal detective with dark brooding eyes, are sent from Canberra to investigate the murder of an Australian Federal Police Officer, Peter Riggs. Riggs had been working undercover on an international heroin ring that seems to be coming in through the Port of Darwin. The officer had been found in his car dead from an overdose of heroin--the very drug that he had been investigating. Everything seems to be pointing to a heroin ring, but for Harry, something smells off. The scene reeks of staged tragedy, the victim's demise too tidy, too convenient.

As they dissect alibis and peel back layers of deceit, they encounter a kaleidoscope of suspects: a Russian crocodile farm, an Asian gangster running a dive called the Buddha Bar, double-crossing kingpins, and a femme fatale with secrets as sharp as her stilettos.
