  My Annie--Over the Boss' Knee: A...

  Dave Wilson could quite possibly be the world’s most frustrated husband. Ever since his wife Annie was promoted to Chief Operations Officer at SM Global, with a salary of more than a half-million dollars a year, she's become even bossier and more demanding at home than usual. Worse, the busier she gets, the less time and interest she has in sex. 
   
  He really should say something. But how can any man presume to make demands on a woman who’s now earning five times his salary? 
   
  But all that changes when he and Annie are called in to a meeting with the company VP Blair Stevenson. This cold, hard-driving young executive has some disturbing news for Annie. Ever since she started her new position, she's been overstepping her job description by trying to fix, remake, and undo everything she finds fault with
   
  Well, Blair is having none of that! He informs Annie that if she wants to keep her job, she must be punished. And the method of punishment he's chosen is an over-the-knee spanking!
   
  Annie is mortified--not to mention humiliated out of her mind.  
   
  And that's not the worst part. Following her spanking, Annie is informed that she is also in need of "training" in the art of following orders. And, given Blair's penchant for all things sleazy, one can only assume that these will bring Annie to a whole new level of humiliation!
   
  Still, no matter how harrowing of an experience Annie is having, Dave is head-over-heels turned on by the spectacle playing out before him. On the one hand, he loves seeing Annie finally following orders from a man. But on the other hand, he simply can’t get over the fact that Annie is doing anything and everything Blair tells her to do!
   
  Well, Dave is having none of that! He has no choice but to even the score. But he’d better be careful because, with what he has in mind, Annie just might find the whole thing even more mind-blowing than what Blair has just put her through!

  Diane Williams, an American master of the short story who will "rewire your brain" (NPR), is back with a collection in which she once again expands the possibilities of fiction. 
   
   
   
  These stories depict ordinary moments—a visit to the doctor's office or a married couple's hundredth dance together—but within the quotidian, Williams delivers a lifetime of insecurities, lusts, rejections, and revelations, making her work equally discomfiting and amusing. With unmatched wit in every sentence, Williams captures whole universes in a story, delivering visionary insights into what it means to be human. 
   
   
   
  Williams's devotees will be newly enthralled by her elegantly strange, bewitching stories in How High?—That High. Those who have yet to meet "the godmother of flash fiction" (The Paris Review) will find an extraordinary introduction in this book.

  A Cat’s Tail is a tender, joyful tale of a spirited feline whose playful mischief, boundless curiosity, and quiet wisdom filled her human family’s days with laughter and love. From daring acrobatics to gentle moments of comfort, Onkyo’s adventures capture the magic of the bond between cats and the people who cherish them. 
  Told in Onkyo’s own voice—with warmth, humor, and heart—these stories celebrate the everyday miracles that make a cat unforgettable and a family whole. For anyone who has loved and lost a feline companion, this book will bring both smiles and tears; while reminding you to treasure the immeasurable joy our cats give us. 
  There are moments when pet loss grief softens into something mysterious - not quite sorrow, not quite peace – a quiet shimmer between the two worlds. In the morning, as the sunlight slanted through the window Onkyo once claimed as her throne, I felt her near. Not in sight or sound, but in that deep place the heart knows. I pierced the veil – and understood that her love for me never ends; it merely changes form. She was gone, yet utterly here.

  Corbett Thomas, a one-hit wonder back in the 90s, now works as the lead sommelier at Napa Valley's hippest restaurant. Better still, Corbett is only an exam away from becoming one of only 250 Master Sommeliers in the entire world, and finally living the life of stardom and adoration he got a taste for in his youth. 
  But the Master Comm "sit" is the hardest exam in the world. And Corbett has an unfortunate knack to self-destruct at the exact wrong moment. 
  When billionaire game designer, Brogan Prescott, asks Corbett to consult on a major vineyard acquisition, Corbett sees it as a shot at redemption...until he learns of Brogan's ridiculous vision of a virtual-reality winery. Worse still, Brogan's hiding a secret about the vineyard—one that could threaten to change the face of Napa Valley forever. 
  Even if Corbett can get out of his own way long enough to purchase the vineyard first, he'll be faced with the hardest decision of his life: take the fame and fortune he desperately craves, or save the soul of the valley he loves so much.

  In this delightfully tangled tale of wit, ego, and legal entanglements, O. Henry serves up a razor-sharp satire of matrimonial mischief and mistaken identity. 
  Meet Lawyer Gooch, a shrewd legal mind with a taste for theatrical metaphors and a knack for keeping his office “compartments” watertight—especially when handling the explosive dramas of divorce. But when three strangers arrive, each spinning a “hypothetical” tale involving the same runaway wife, a suave suitor, and a weary husband, Gooch finds himself navigating a shipwreck of schemes, secrets, and social pretensions. 
  Narrated with droll charm by Mike Polischuk, The Hypotheses of Failure is a classic O. Henry farce—full of ironic twists, comedic timing, and a final punchline worthy of a standing ovation.
