Book Description
Publishers Weekly: "The Irish family at the heart of this hilarious novel is so tawdry and despicable, it's a wonder they don't kill off each other in the first few pages. ...The central figure is Ursula, whose husband had won the lottery and has since gambled away much of the winnings. Ursula's new (and fading) riches have strained many of her personal relationships, particularly with her sister-in-law, Fionnuala, a first-rate villain who concocts get-rich-quick schemes based on the misery of others. ...Once the vulgarity and shenanigans set in, the novel is as absorbing as it is hysterical." When Ursula Barnett and her husband Jed win the Irish lottery, they think their troubles are over. But they are just beginning. Ursula coerces her Yank husband to retire in her hometown of Derry, Northern Ireland, hoping to atone for her youthful sins as a collaborator with the IRA in the 1970s. At the first sniff of Ursula s lotto win, however, her chronically greedy sister-in-law Fionnuala Flood rallies the family against Ursula. Fionnuala's life is a misery. She is married to a boozing fish-packing plant worker and raising seven seedy hooligans, from a convict son to an eight-year-old devil-daughter who will resort to desperate measures to secure the perfect Holy Communion gown. Between two part-time jobs, Fionnuala still finds the energy to put into motion plans which pit husbands against wives, daughters against mothers, the lawless against the law and Fionnuala against anyone fool enough to cross her path. Family saga and black comedy, love story and courtroom drama, An Embarrassment of Riches will take you on a journey to Northern Ireland and beyond, where Protestants and Catholics wage battle daily, and where crossing family with finance leads to heartache and hilarity, passion and tragedy. "A Masterpiece!" --Colin Quinn, Comedian, SNL, Tough Crowd "Wildly amusing...a cross between a roller-coaster and a carousel!" --Olivera Baumgartner-Jackson. Readerviews.com "Clearly the work of a craftsman! (The characters) careen around Derry with the grace of a drunken and horny bull!" --Chris Gerrib, Podpeople.com "Classic, I-can't-stop-reading literature!"- --Jonathan Henderson, Jonhenderscon.com "Hansen does a wonderful job with this dark comedy...an excellent novel for anyone to read again and again!"--Ashley Merrill, Front Street Reviews

From the #1 New York Times–bestselling co-author of Skinny Bitch, “a clever . . . mouth-watering story of a vegan chef with big dreams.” —San Francisco Book Review A rising culinary star of the vegan foodie scene, Clementine Cooper gets her big chance to impress a top food critic—until a backstabbing co-worker sabotages her exquisite entrée with butter.

But when a sexy restauranteur settles on her dream locale as the perfect place for his steakhouse, Clem prepares for battle. Then she lays eyes on him. Zach Jeffries is way too good looking. Worse, when he shows up at her cooking class, he’s more than the meathead she expects him to be. Much more. Turns out the attraction is mutual, even if their dreams are not. So Clem does what every self-respecting single woman would do—she tries to fall in love with a more suitable man. Alexander Orr is not only a vegan chef, too, but British and adorably sweet. Yet, despite her best efforts Clem still has an irresistible taste for a certain hunky carnivore. . . . “Barnouin has cooked up one tasty love triangle. . . .

Book Description
After the Rungan warriors decimate the Lord invaders, they must decide what to do next. Knowing the Spears sent them to die, their next move seems obvious: take back Burunga and liberate their fellow Rungans from King Robert's betrayal. As they march back to the palace, they find several weapons storehouses and abandoned towns, all left in haste during the boulder slide. The Rungans lay down their primitive weapons, trading them for the rocket launchers and guns the Spears denied them. Leaving behind reinforcements to train, Colm continues his march to the Royal Palace. Once there, they're greeted with a triumphant welcome from King Robert and his officers. But behind the scenes, they again plot to destroy the Rungans out of fear of retribution. Though many on the council stick up for the warriors and regard them as heroes, their voices are drowned out by King Robert. He plans a ceremony of honor where the Spears will take out the remaining Rungans. Colm is not fooled. He sees through their ceremony, asked to leave all weapons outside, and plots a counter-attack. He and the warriors, now confident and strong from their victory, are ready to fight to save their country and their people. In a final stand, they surround the Royal Palace and use the weapons they collected to destroy those inside. Leaving only a few alive, King Robert is bloody and broken, but questioned and held accountable for his betrayal. His ally in the Palace, Lynzo Mesfin, tells Colm a harrowing secret: his parents are alive. The president has been kept in a Dumpster since King Robert betrayed him. Colm and his family are taken to meet him, but the reunion is tainted by Robert's torture-- the president, Colm's father, believes the return of his children to be a trick to get him to comply. But through persistence, they finally convince him. Weakened by the imprisonment, the president calls Colm before the warriors he led so valiantly in battle. Over the sound of their cheers, Colm is sworn in before them, as the new president of Burunga.
