But when Karl offers to help her to create a “living nativity” Christmas program for the schoolchildren, she gratefully agrees.It’ll take a bold plan and help from Karl’s children to make this chaotic Christmas play a success.

  Poor Lydia Davidson. On the very morning she is about to fly to Europe for a two-week business trip, she gets a call from her angry boss informing her that she neglected to get her travel physical done. He then orders her to get herself to a nearby walk-in clinic--the only one open at this early hour--or risk losing her job.
   
  Poor Brian Davidson. It's bad enough that, due to his beautiful wife’s extreme modesty in the bedroom, he goes through his days sexually frustrated and unfulfilled. But now, she's going away for two weeks, leaving him even more frustrated than usual.
   
  Then, upon arriving at the clinic, Lydia and Brian receive the biggest shock of their lives: The only doctor on duty is Brian's brother Adam. And Adam, who's always been jealous of Brian, isn't about to let a gorgeous and shapely woman like Lydia off without putting her through the works.
   
  In other words, Lydia is about to undergo the most embarrassing, debasing examination imaginable. And talk about comprehensive. Those sticklers in Europe sure are strict with their medical requirements!
   
  And Brian? Well, he isn’t about to go wait out front during this exam--not with his wife naked on the other side of the curtain...and at the hands of his own brother! He peeps in around the edge of the curtain and…
   
  Yowza! There's his wife—assuming positions he would have killed to get her in, driving him mad with desire. And argh! There's his brother--feeling and probing his own wife in ways he'd never been allowed to enjoy.
   
  Lydia is humiliated to the hilt. And Brian is horny and jealous to the hilt. There’s no telling what can happen from here. But one thing is for sure: Brian is not about to walk away from that clinic empty-handed!

  Ask a Foolish Question by Robert Sheckley is a provocative science fiction tale that delves into the philosophical nature of inquiry, intelligence, and the pursuit of ultimate truth. First published in the early 1950s, the story follows beings from across the universe—especially Morran and Lingman—as they seek out the enigmatic Answerer, a near-omniscient entity designed to reveal the answers to any question. But as the seekers discover, the quality of the answer depends entirely on the quality of the question. Sheckley weaves a clever and contemplative narrative that challenges readers to consider how knowledge is shaped not just by what we ask, but by our ability to understand the answers. Perfect for fans of thought-provoking science fiction, Ask a Foolish Question is a timeless meditation on the limits of understanding and the nature of wisdom.

  It's love at first sight . . . but can it be love forever? 
   
   
   
  Amina Wright loves her job in community outreach for the Chicago Bulls NBA team, but life has taught her to be wary of players. So she's not sure what to expect when a good-looking anesthesiologist smoothly cuts in at the charity gala she's hosting and handles the womanizing jerk trying to waste her time. Certainly gratitude is in order—but a relationship? Not on the table. 
   
   
   
  Dr. Nathan Moore doesn't have time for a relationship, especially not a complicated one. He can't believe he let his friend drag him to some fancy event, and he certainly wasn't expecting to rescue a beautiful woman as a distraction. But now he wants to spend more time with Amina, even if most of his waking hours are devoted to the hospital. 
   
   
   
  Indulging in a relationship that sizzles their blood is the easy part. But her past threatens his career's future, and their cultural differences are putting stress on the present. Can they build a love strong enough to heal both their hearts? 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
