Sinopsis

In "Potluck Panic Protocol," Martha Simmons, a retired librarian with an obsession for order, faces her ultimate challenge: hosting the annual neighborhood potluck in the charming town of Millbrook. When a simple invitation mix-up leads to an eclectic assortment of unexpected guests, Martha's carefully orchestrated event descends into hilarious mayhem.   
Vegetarians butt heads with barbecue enthusiasts, while gluten-free zealots wage war against pastry aficionados, turning the gathering into a comedic battleground of dietary preferences and cultural clashes. Determined to salvage her soirée, Martha enlists the help of her tech-savvy grandson and a motley crew of neighbors. Together, they concoct increasingly absurd "protocols" to navigate the chaos, resulting in uproarious consequences that will leave readers in stitches.   
This clever, warm-hearted tale serves up a generous helping of laughter while exploring themes of community spirit, flexibility, and finding joy in life's unexpected twists. With its quirky characters, suburban setting, and running gag of escalating potluck rules, this social satire offers a delightful feast for fans of humorous fiction and family dynamics.

    Offering a fresh twist on Kris Kringle, a clever yet heartfelt audiobook that tells the story of a black Santa, his white husband, and their life in the North Pole. 
    Everyone knows that Santa Claus is jolly, but in Santa’s Husband, this cherished symbol of the holiday season is also black and gay, and married to an equally cheery man. 
    In this witty and sweet illustrated Christmas tale, humor writer Daniel Kibblesmith introduces us to Mr. and Mr. Claus, and gives us a glimpse of their lives together. We see the Clauses sitting by the fire at their cozy North Pole home, vacationing at the beach, having an occasional disagreement, celebrating their wedding day, and comforting each other when some loudmouth people on television angrily dispute Santa’s appearance and lifestyle. 
    In the weeks before Christmas, Santa’s husband helps with all the pre-Christmas work, from double-checking lists, to feeding the reindeer (organic gluten-free grains, of course), to negotiating labor disputes with the restive workshop elves. At the height of toy-making season, he even fills in for his busy hubby at the mall to ensure every child can meet the Big Guy in the red suit, and give him their wish list. 
    As this charming audiobook reminds us, Santa Claus can come in all shapes and colors and sizes—just like the children and families he visits all over the world each Christmas eve. 
    Santa’s Husband is a delightful gift for listeners of all ages.

    He’s not a hero. He’s just a policeman trying to survive. 
    Steve Jackson has seen too much. After enduring trauma and personal loss, all he wants is a quiet life and to be left alone. But fate has other plans. 
    This is the gritty, gripping story of a year in the life of Steve—known to his colleagues as "Steady Eddy"—and Felicity Oakshott, his fiercely loyal, quick-witted partner, better known as "Fu*k Off." Together, they navigate the highs and lows of police life with sharp humour, raw honesty, and an unflinching look at what it really means to serve. 
    Blending dark comedy with real-life policing, this is no ordinary crime story. It’s an unconventional tale about two unforgettable characters—and the messy, meaningful lives behind the badge.
