  He’s the devil himself: 
  Damon Copeland (he practically carries a pitchfork). 
  Fiery-hot and a killer smile (if he ever smiled). 
  He’s also the top dog at my father’s company, 
  And my two older brothers’ best friend. 
  Oh, and someone I accidentally slept with. 
  In my defense, that was before I knew who he was— 
  And before he hired me. 
  Now, my one-night stand has turned into my boss. 
  What’s worse, he’s Mr. Bosshole Superior: brutish, broody, and impatient. 
  And he’s completely immune to my charms. 
  He’s also 6’4”. 
  With a perfect jawline. 
  After a few teeny-tiny collisions, I’m pretty sure he hates me. 
  But it’s not as if I planned to run smack-dab into his wall of hard muscle. (Twice.) 
  And it’s not my fault we ended up in one room on the company trip. 
  (With just one bed.) 
  And it’s definitely not my fault my heart stopped—almost completely— 
  when he showed me the tender, generous, and compassionate man he really is.  
  None of this will break my resolve. 
  The girl who resists her irresistible boss? That’s me. 
  I will not fall for impossible, controlling Damon Copeland. 
  From USA Today Bestselling Author, Jolie Day, comes a new hot romantic comedy. It stands alone. Come see what happens when the broody alpha man and the quirky girl collide. Literally.

  A TV investigative reporter and his sister, a San Francisco PD homicide detective, look into the slayings of Bay Area cops who have shot unarmed African Americans yet faced no repercussions in this debut crime thriller. 
   
  When San Francisco Police Officer Mickey Driscoll is gunned down in the driveway of his suburban Bay Area home in broad daylight, the suspects are numerous. Was the murder committed by someone close to him? An arrestee seeking revenge?  
   
  Or was it one of the many rioters, activists, and militant groups harassing his family since he accidentally shot and killed an unarmed African American honor student? 
   
  TV investigative reporter Topher Davis, the only Black journalist on that beat, has exactly three weeks to do one final story before his position is eliminated due to corporate budget cuts. Enlisting the aid of his sister, SFPD Homicide Detective Lynn Sloan, he decides to investigate what the families of Blacks killed by police—and the families of the cops themselves—go through when tragic events like this occur. Instead, they find themselves involved in an ever-expanding mystery as more officers who’ve committed the same offense turn up dead. Weaving their way through a world of grieving mothers and widows, African American militias, dirty cops, and drug dealers, they search for the truth that threatens to leave one … or both … siblings dead. 
   
  “Brian Copeland’s thrilling debut novel is a revelation from an excitingly fresh voice‘of color’ in the arena of crime fiction … He manages to take a ‘ripped from the headlines’ topic, the shooting of unarmed African Americans by police, and turn it into an exciting and entertaining blend of action, mystery, and social commentary.”—Jonathan Kellerman, New York Times bestselling author

  No 5 Branch Line - The...

  Amelia Ann Blanford Edwards was born on 7th June 1831 in Islington, London.  She was educated at home by her mother and showed early promise as a writer, publishing her first poem at the age of 7 and her first story at 12.  Thereafter several popular periodicals published her poetry, stories and articles. 
   
  In addition she also illustrated some of her own writings and painted scenes from books she had read.  This talent was not supported by her parents, who saw an artist’s life as scandalous.  Undeterred Amelia took up composing and performing music until a bout of typhus caused throat damage.  Other interests soon followed until, early in the 1850s, Amelia focused exclusively on writing.  Her early novels were well received, and with ‘Barbara's History’ in 1864, a work revolving around bigamy, her reputation was established.  
   
  Amelia’s pen was also the purveyor of ghost stories for magazines and are still anthologized as classic tales to this day. 
   
  In January 1851, Amelia became engaged, apparently to please her parents, but she quickly broke it off.  In reality her emotional attachments were almost exclusively with women.  From the early 1860s she lived with Ellen Drew Braysher, a widow 27 years her senior, until both women died in early 1892.  During this relationship other women also entered and left her life.  Her frequent travelling companion, Lucy Renshaw, accompanied her to Egypt in the winter of 1873 and there she found a life-changing interest in Egyptology.  Aware of increasing threats from tourism and modern development she became an advocate for their research and preservation.  
   
  To advance the work Amelia largely abandoned much of her writing in favour of Egyptology and even took on strenuous lecture tours to raise funds. 
   
  After catching influenza, Amelia Edwards, ‘the Godmother of Egyptology’ died on 15th April 1892 at Weston-super-Mare.  She was 60.  
   
  In this Italian set story two Englishmen fall into problems over their love for a coquettish Genoese girl.  When she turns both their lives upside down horrendous consequences inevitably follow.
