    Daniel Greene's life is dance. What it is not? Really anything outside of that. He certainly doesn't know how to hobnob with rich people or play bartender for their rich private parties, so when his best friend guilts him into doing exactly that, it ought to end in disaster. Instead, it ends with him pressed against a bathroom wall while a hot lawyer kisses his grand jeté-ing brains out. 
     
     
     
    Aaron Silva is the swooniest. He's gorgeous, he drips in romance, and the sex is transcendent. So what if he would rather be Daniel's dream man than talk about work? Being an attorney must be tiring. All those late nights. All those needy clients. 
     
     
     
    It's not until Daniel enlists Aaron's help with some legalese that he stumbles into a bit of a quagmire: 
     
     
     
    Aaron isn't a lawyer as Daniel originally assumed. He's a high-end escort. 
     
     
     
    Suddenly the clouds Daniel was dancing on get awfully stormy. He can't compete with other men—richer men—and why should he have to? This changes everything. Well, everything except the way they feel about each other. Can he and Aaron find their way to a happy-ever-after that's not just another happy ending?

    No matter what she’s done with him, she’s intent on starting a new life and proving she’s better than her past, better than what he insists she is. 
    Yet small-town living and “normal” life is harder than Zayah ever imagined. 
    The monotony… 
    The boredom… 
    The people… 
    The urges that won’t go away… 
    Zayah needs a distraction…or two. 
    Her friend Nova offers her an outlet for some of her desires. 
    A mystery man from the internet does for others…

    THE FIRST RULE OF THE HATE ZONE: YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT THE HATE ZONE 
    The pitchforks are out again. Shocker, I know. 
    This time, it’s not just the paparazzi or trolls on social media. Sigh. It’s my ex. And my dad. And even my new limo driver, Enrique. But wait a minute, what's this? Enrique is a total hottie—with eyes black as sin, swagger for days, and dimples that could melt a girl's heart. 
    And… he hates me. 
    I don’t blame him, really. 
    All he sees is an heiress? I give it to him from day one. 
    He wants a prank war? Bring it on, dude. 
    I wish I could say I expect to win, but Enrique is an infuriating master strategist who uses his red-hot banter in ways that make me feel alive. Maybe even alive enough to let him see who I really am…. 
    From USA Today bestselling author Gigi Blume,The Hate Zone is the first in the Precio Brothers series. A closed-door romantic comedy with mild language, steamy kisses, and flirty innuendo without the graphic content.

    We are told in the natural sciences that matter is connected to other matter when we research something like quantum string theory and assume this to be correct. So, according to the simplified explanation of this theory, one atom influences other atoms everywhere across distance and time, and the influence of matter in one dimension can also affect the matter in different dimensions. In this way, Shamanism and Quantum mechanics have similar ideas of connection to the universe and other awareness (atoms). Both systems seem to suggest that this “connection” influences the universe's other atoms (or a unifying awareness). What happens when we try to control quantum science and use this to influence people's thoughts? Do we open up a pandora's box of unknowns or unlock a new world of possibilities? John is about to discover what happens when the company behind the world's biggest social media company starts working on quantum-based weapons. The experiment is anything but ordinary and starts a chain reaction that will unleash previously unknown darkness, threatening to destroy everything John has ever cared for.

    **FROM USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR ANDREW WATTS AND DALE M. NELSON**
     
    As superpowers race to control the world’s most powerful technology, Chinese and American intelligence officers play a daring game of spy versus spy.
     
    Genius tech CEO Jeff Kim has just discovered that the ultrawealthy Hawkinson family stole his advanced AI prediction technology. This technology was his secret possession. A cornerstone in which he would rebuild his life’s work. But now he has serious competition. To solve his problem, Kim decides to reach out to a man he never thought he would speak to again. A Chinese intelligence officer named Liu.
     
    Liu, a seasoned and capable MSS officer stationed in the US, is in charge of many of China’s most important economic espionage operations. And pressure from Beijing has been intense of late.
     
    Chinese tech industry advancements in AI are not progressing fast enough to stop an unprecedented economic collapse. As fears of an angry citizen revolt grow, Chinese leadership has ordered the MSS to gain the code to the new American AI prediction technology by any means necessary.
     
    When Liu investigates the Hawkinson’s operation, he discovers some shocking revelations. The Americans have placed a spy in the Hawkinson’s inner circle. As a series of seemingly unrelated incidents come together in Liu’s mind, he develops one of the most ambitious espionage operations the MSS has ever undertaken.
     
    For it to work, he will have to activate China’s own mole. The crown jewel of Chinese intelligence. A sleeper-agent placed so high up in the US government, they will have access to all of America’s most classified information.
     
    But CIA officers Colt McShane and Fred Ford have caught wind of China’s plan. And now they must find the sleeper agent before their own is identified and killed.
     
    Which spy will be caught first?
