  Two houses. Two Presidents. One hell of a happy ending.  
  Zeke 
  Being president of a frat house means everything is on my shoulders. 
  Idiot brothers, epic pranks, a list of organizational duties long enough to make my eyes bleed. 
  None of it fazes me. 
  But senior year is almost over, and I’m ready to take a step back. 
  Until the hazing rumors start. 
  I might not know where they’re coming from, but I know they’re total BS. 
  Now, instead of dialing back the stress, we’ve broken the number one rule on the row: Don’t get the dean’s attention. 
  I need to find out who’s driving the lies. 
  And all evidence points to one person. 
  Charles 
  I never wanted to become Kappa president. 
  The appointment was made easier, though, when none other than Zeke Ariston took over Sigma house. I’ve always been … drawn to him. Fascinated. 
  And maybe a little attracted too. 
  Pity I’ve never been more than an afterthought to him. 
  But when rumors start to circulate about hazing and the sources lead back to my house, it puts me square on Zeke’s radar. 
  I want to help him get to the bottom of it all. 
  And with his attention finally on me, I want to tell him how I feel. 
  The guys on Greek Row meet their chaotic conclusion with this rivals-to-lovers romance full of pranks, shared hoodies, and secret meetings made in the dark.

  A breathtaking, exquisitely crafted memoir about a trans person’s singular journey through breaching the boundaries of gender—across generations, cultures and borders—to become his truest, most authentic self. 
   
  Nearing the age of forty, with an entire life already lived as a woman—half in Colombia, half in the US—Miles Borrero comes face to face with his father’s impending death. Suddenly realizing that he has been stalling his transition for fear of losing his family’s love, this moment catalyzes Miles’s determination to be fully known as his father’s son before it is too late. 
   
  In Beautiful Monster, Miles chronicles his unusual childhood, by turns riveting and hilarious, in ’80s and ’90s Colombia during the Pablo Escobar years, as well as his move to Salt Lake City to pursue acting and the winding trajectory that eventually lands him in the New York City yoga scene. Within these very different cultures, the realities of being queer and trans echo poignantly through the triumphs, heartbreaks, family dynamics, spiritual pursuits, and relationships that propel Miles along his path. 
   
  Sublimely nuanced and written in ravishing prose that is as unique and irresistible as its subject, Beautiful Monster is one person’s story of navigating the pressures to perform femininity while becoming a gender outlaw. Brimming with wonder, humor, and mythos, entertaining and enlightening in equal measure, this book offers a compelling case for embracing one’s true nature. 
   
  Includes original music performed by the author

  Born and raised in St. Claire, Lindsay Juneau's life was seemingly full raising a six-year-old daughter and caring for her widowed mother. Of course, things aren't always what they seem, and the newest resident of St. Claire isn't buying the ruse. 
   
   
   
  Veterinarian Nicole Allen is looking for something different. She finds it in St. Claire with its hypochondriac rabbits, shotgun-toting shut-ins, and eclectic mix of people. The most alluring, though, is a woman who's also looking for something different.
