  The Whole Story and other stories

  Ali Smith

  • 0

  From the critically acclaimed, award-winning author comes a collection of uniquely inventive stories that thread the labyrinth of coincidence, chance, and connections missed and made. 
  What happens when you run into Death in a busy train station? (You know he’s Death because when he smiles, your cell phone goes dead.) What if your lover falls in love with a tree? Should you be jealous? From the woman pursued by a band of bagpipers in full regalia to the artist who’s built a seven-foot boat out of secondhand copies of The Great Gatsby, Smith’s characters are offbeat, charming, sexy, and as wonderfully complex as life itself. 
  “She’s street-savvy and poignant at once. … There’s a kind of stainless steel clarity at the center of her fiction.”—Boston Globe

Book 1: HOT AND ROWDY When Cassidy Jones shows up at the Burly Bar I know what I need. Her. Gentle in ways my calloused hands aren’t and tender in the ways I crave, there is no denying the spark. She just moved to town to nanny, but after one night I want to be the one looking after her. She’s never ridden a cowboy — let alone a horse, but it’s time she learns.And I’m just the cowboy to teach her. Book 2: ROWDY & WILLING Friends to lovers never looked so dang good! Williams and Windy have been best friends since grade school. But now that they are all grown up, things are changing. For one, their invention has a shot at being more than a pipedream. If they get an investor, they could make their dream a reality. As they work toward their joint goal, William starts to realize he doesn’t just want to run a business with Windy. He wants a whole life with her. But telling the truth might mean losing the one girl he has always put first. It’s about to get Rowdy! Book 3: GOOD AND ROWDY Forbidden love never felt so good!Carter is a local bad boy rancher with one hell of a reputation. Cadence is a preacher’s daughter who has never made a mistake. When their worlds collide, the chemistry is undeniable – but no one would believe their connection is real. They must decide who to live for, and what’s worth a Rowdy brawl.

But now that June is all grown up, I can’t keep thinking about her. I’ve always been the strong and silent type. She is the sparkle at every party. I think about her constantly, dream about a future, and it’s high time she knew it. When I confess my feelings – things change. Fast. It’s time to grab the bull by the horns and hold on tight – it’s about to be a Rowdy ride! -dual virgins -bull rider energy -small town cowboy -scorching hot -forbidden romance

  Eva Dempsey is out of options.  
  She’s made it to Oak Creek, Wyoming with two traumatized dogs, twenty dollars, and a fear of damned near everything.  
  Things that didn’t make it with her? Her self-esteem, confidence, or any way of supporting herself. 
  Theo Lindstrom knows how to survive. He proved it as a child when he had to keep himself and sister alive in the wilderness. Now he runs Linear Tactical, the company his adoptive father helped create, and teaches survival skills to others. 
  So he recognizes the desperation in the eyes of the petite beauty who’s pulled into town, and knows there’s more to her story than she’s letting on.  
  He normally keeps to himself—for very good reasons—but he can’t this time. Something about Eva draws him in a way he can’t resist, even knowing she’s got secrets. The deadly kind. 
  When the danger she's running from shows up, Theo’s not going to let her fight it alone.  
  This is his town. 
  This is his woman.  
  And he’ll protect both to his last breath.

  A subtle and intimate accounting of a daughter's final days with her mother, set amid the rush of Tokyo's red-light district. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on her own experiences as a hostess and adult film actor, Gifted—Suzumi Suzuki's first novel to be translated into English—offers a nuanced, frank, and intimate portrayal of the lives of a mother and daughter getting by (or not) in an industry rarely depicted authentically in literary fiction. 
   
   
   
  In the last days of her mother's life, a young woman living in Tokyo's red-light district is thrust into a split existence. By day, she negotiates her new role as caregiver of an abusive parent. By night, she drifts home from the hospital, goes out with other sex-workers, thinks about quitting smoking, and numbly remembers Eri, a friend who died the summer before. Her sensitivity to the details of her surroundings grounds an otherwise unstable world, one where each interaction requires a subtle negotiation of economic and sexual power, and proximity rarely means intimacy or connection. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
