  Lauren Foley and Jack Fletcher already tried to be amicable once—on a blind date that ended in complete disaster. Now, years later, they have to put up with each other for the sake of her sister and his best friend, who are eloping on a cruise to the Bahamas. But that’s not the worst of it. No, Lauren’s in even deeper water when she finds herself agreeing to play Jack’s fake girlfriend for the duration of the cruise. Now the only thing on her mind is trying not to strangle him when he dials up the charm, but it becomes hard to remember exactly why she ever hated him in the first place. Jack, on the other hand, is enjoying the perks. Until the cruise lands on American soil again and real life hits them square in the face. Lauren is up for a promotion at work, and Jack promised her something that would secure it. But promises are easily broken, vacation life doesn’t always translate to the real world, and sometimes enemies start that way for a reason. Book one in the Arcadia Creek romance series, Love on Deck is a fake-dating enemies-to-lovers story with forced proximity and a happily ever after. This modern romance will also introduce you to small-town Texas and show you just how cozy it can be.

  Veteran authors Everett and Kincaid present an uproarious send-up of one of America's most controversial American icons. 
   
   
   
  "[A]n outrageously funny satire of race relations and racism, US history, contemporary sexual mores and behavior, academia, and the publishing industry . . . It could become a cult-classic . . . Highly recommended." —Library Journal 
   
   
   
  Everett and Kincaid present a fictitious chronicle of South Carolina Senator Strom Thurmond's desire to pen a history of African Americans—his and his aides' belief being that he has done as much, or more, than any American to shape that history. An epistolary novel, A History follows the letters of loose-cannon congressional office workers, insane interns at a large New York publishing house, and disturbed publishing executives, along with homicidal rival editors, kindly family friends, and an aspiring author named Septic. Strom Thurmond appears charming and open, mad and sure of his place in American history.

  The BRAND NEW deliciously dark thriller from Sarah Bonner, author of How to Slay at Work  
  You’d kill for a holiday like this one… 
  Chloe has spent months planning the murder of her husband, Scott. Everything is ready, but first she must create the perfect alibi to avoid any suggestion of her involvement in his death. And what better way to avoid suspicion than playing the loved-up wife on an extravagant holiday with their extended families? 
  A luxury villa on the Greek island of Mykonos should provide the ultimate setting for her week of make-believe married bliss. But as the sun sets on their first evening in paradise, the cracks in Chloe’s plan begin to show. Family rivalries bubble to the surface. Scott’s sister, Tori, begins to ask awkward questions, suggesting she might know more about Chloe’s plans than she should. Then there’s the villa concierge, Grace, who is watching her guests’ every moves. 
  As tensions rise, can Chloe manage to keep her murderous intentions hidden? And can she stop herself from adding a few more people to the body count along the way? 
  Fans of Katy Brent, Bella Mackie and Julie Mae Cohen won't be able to resist this twisty, darkly funny crime thriller.

  Father Son and Soldering Gun -...

  Do you embrace your life and how you came to be who you are today? While that can sometimes be painful, it could be the most powerful thing you ever do. Witness this power through the legacy of Victor Mycynek (1943-2004). 
  Victor-an engineer, craftsman, and forestry enthusiast-was not a politician, celebrity, CEO, or business owner. He wasn't an artist or in the military. He didn't live through the era of social media influencers. Still, just by being himself, he inspired the richest and fullest life possible for many who knew him. It would be an understatement to say he used his time well. 
  Victor's son, Steven, proves through stories about his father, some happy or sad, some funny or just plain odd, that accepting who you are and where you came from, quirks and all, can unleash an awesome force to impact the world around you for the better. Following Victor's example, we all can learn to use our time well.
