  Now a new TV series on SYFY: Reginald The Vampire! 
  Death Has a Brand New Appetite... 
  When overweight treadmill salesman Reginald Baskin finally meets a co-worker who doesn't make fun of him, it's his own bad luck that tech guy Maurice turns out to be a two thousand-year-old vampire. 
  And when Maurice turns Reginald to save his life, it's just Reginald's further bad luck that he wakes to discover he's become the slowest, weakest, most out-of-shape vampire ever created … doomed to "heal" to his corpulent self for all of eternity. 
  But as Reginald struggles with the downsides of being a fat vampire (too slow to catch people to feed on, mocked by those he tries to glamour, assaulted by his intended prey and left for undead), he discovers rare powers in himself that few vampires have … and just in time, because the Vampire Council wants him destroyed as an inferior representative of their race.

  Selling his soul to the Devil was the best decision that Nick ever made. He got the girl, saved the day, and settled in for a comfortable career at Devil Co. That means it’s the perfect time for God to have other plans for him– and guess who shows up to try and poach Nick for Their organization? Why have one complicated job working for a personified deity, when you can have two? 
  Caught between worlds, and moonlighting for the “good guys,” Nick learns his deal with Lucifer might not be what it seems. Uncovering a scheme to take advantage of the Devil himself rocks Nick to his core, and makes him question everything. The line between good and evil gets blurrier by the day, and Nick doesn’t know which shoulder angel to trust. 
  His partner Amy, a witch growing into powers of her own, warns him of the danger he faces, but can’t stop Nick from running headlong into it. Can Nick save himself, or will Amy need to make an ally of a former foe to save him from a fate worse than decaf?

  When a troubled young comic meets a bold, unpredictable woman, their story spirals into dark comedy, spiritual questions, and the unexpected hope of redemption. 
  This short-form audiobook delivers a cinematic punch — part redemption story, part black comedy, all heart. 
   Chris is a young alcoholic who wants nothing to do with his family’s bizarre mortuary business. He dreams of being a comedian, of making people laugh — but the economy is brutal, his drug habit is getting worse, and his life is unraveling fast. 
  Then there’s Zoie. She’s gorgeous, confident, and completely unpredictable — and she’s got plans of her own. What begins as an offbeat romance turns into a chaotic ride through grief, love, repentance, and faith. 
  Zoie: “I Don’t Think Jesus Did It This Way” is a dark, fast-moving romantic comedy with a strange spiritual twist. This is a short story about the opportunities found in: true love, repentance, forgiveness, and redemption. 
  Jack Webb was born in South Carolina and raised mostly on U.S. Air Force bases in Europe and the southwestern U.S. After college, he worked in the motion picture industry and became a director of photography. While in film production, he honed his addictions to a fine edge. Now many years sober, he writes stories inspired by real experiences, tales he’s heard, and his own vivid imagination. This is his first novella.

  The uplifting love story, guaranteed to make you smile from the bestselling winner of the RNA Romantic Comedy Award 2024, Maxine Morrey 
  Wedding planner Madeleine lives in a picture-perfect thatched cottage, in a picture-perfect English country village. 
  There’s only one problem - dream cottages take a lot of work, and with a leaking roof, and not enough money to pay for it, what Maddie needs now is a big wedding to plan. 
  So she’s delighted when she takes on the wedding of Californian heiress Peyton, to all-round good guy Patrick. She’s less delighted to find out that she's going to have help – from the admittedly gorgeous, but equally maddening, tall, dark and handsome best man Lorcan. 
  The wedding is set to take place in a castle in rural Ireland, and so, in no time, Maddie and Lorcan are on their way to Ballalee. Life hasn’t always been easy for Maddie, and work has become her refuge. But soon the warmth and humour of Lorcan’s Irish family and friends start to chip away at Maddie’s walls. And as the big day approaches, it might be time for Maddie to focus less on her clients’ love life and more on her own…

  I'm Probably Going to Hell for...

  Do you ever wonder what comes after this life? Do you ever wonder why the nun who taught your seventh-grade math class could swing a ruler better than Babe Ruth? Did you ever wonder if Noah put the tigers next to the gazelles in the arc? How about some of the rules in the Old Testament? And why did the Vatican commission paintings of Jesus that looked like a guitarist from Led Zepplin? Jesus was from the Middle East. He didn't look like any of the paintings we have seen over the years.  
  I try to tackle life after death, religion (especially the Catholic religion), and the Old Testament in this book. The book is filled with satire. Just look at the title. It's a book to make you think and laugh. Nothing more, nothing less.

  The Unrest-Cure, a short story by Saki (H.H. Munro), satirizes the upper-class society of early 20th-century England through the lens of humor and absurdity. The narrative centers around Clovis Sangrail, a witty and mischievous young man who visits the dull Huddle siblings at their country estate. The Huddles are depicted as insipid and overly concerned with their mundane comforts.
