  "The Caballero's Way" is a short story by the American author O. Henry. It was first published in the July 1907 issue of Everybody's Magazine and was collected in the anthology The Heart of the West later the same year.
  The story introduces the Cisco Kid, a fast-shooting caballero who murders for sport. Lieutenant Sandridge, a ranger who is after the outlaw, goes to see Tonia, the beautiful girlfriend of the Kid. They fall in love, and Tonia begs Sandridge to kill the Kid in order to ensure their safety. Unbeknownst to the lovers, the Kid overhears their plan. Although a ruthless killer, the Cisco Kid is proud of being a gentleman who knows how to treat a lady. Since it would be against his code of behavior to lay a hand on a woman, he hatches an appropriate counterplan to deal with the situation.

  A powerfully moving novel about the intertwined lives of a Vermont monk, a Somali refugee, and an Afghan war veteran, by the author of the acclaimed memoir Goat Song 
   
  As a late spring blizzard brews, Father Christopher, a cloistered monk at Blue Mountain Monastery in Vermont, rushes to tend to his Ida Red and Northern Spy apple trees in advance of the unseasonal storm. When snow brings a young Somali refugee, Sahro Abdi Muse, to the monastery, Christopher is pulled back into the world and their lives intersect in surprising and illuminating ways. 
   
  North traces the epic journey of Sahro from her home in Somalia throughout the Americas until her last attempt to cross into safety in Canada. It also traces the inner journeys of Father Christopher questioning his monastic way of life, and veteran Teddy Fletcher, who is seeking a way to make peace with his past.  
   
  Written in Brad Kessler’s sharp, beautiful prose and grounded in the author’s own experience among cloistered monks, resettled Somali refugees in Vermont, and local veterans, North gives voice to these invisible communities while investigating the idea of sanctuary and the hope of human connection in a time of displacement. 
   
  “A beautiful and moving tale, Kessler’s North is tender, dazzling, and wise.”—Annie Dillard, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

  Behind closed doors at The Scarlet Hotel, anything can happen... even true love. 
  Omega Charlie never intended to become someone’s dirty little secret, and he certainly never intended to get pregnant. Seems like nothing is going according to plan these days. Facing an uncertain future as a single father is a terrifying prospect, but he refuses to get involved with a new man—he doesn’t want to take advantage of anyone’s kindness. Not even when it comes from an alpha who is handsome and funny and so, so perfect. 
  Alpha Hugh has a crush on one of the regular customers at his café. Totally innocent, right? Nope. Nothing about his thoughts can be described as innocent. He wants nothing more than to sweep Charlie off his feet, possibly straight into his bed. The only problem? Charlie is pregnant with another man’s child. 
  Room 404 is the first standalone book in the new m/m mpreg romance series, The Scarlet Hotel, from bestselling author Trisha Linde. Each book features a new couple and begins and ends in a different room at The Scarlet Hotel. Room 404 revolves around an omega who has given up on love, an alpha determined to prove him wrong, a friends-to-lovers romance, an adorable baby, and a well-earned happily ever after.

  “They said I could choose my reward. I choose you.”  
  It was a simple job: go to a wedding. Execute the groom.  
  Then I saw the bride, wearing a mountain of white satin, her lacy veil now spattered with blood. Instead of running away screaming like the rest of the wedding party, she raised her chin and stared at me, a challenge in her dark eyes. I felt a flicker of feeling in my cold dark heart...  
  Then she shot me. And I knew...  
  I had to make her mine.
