Book Description
Cooper Gillespie, an extremely intelligent and handsome Welsh springer spaniel, is a dog of discriminating taste and strong opinions. Now Cooper, with the assistance of cookbook author Sally Sampson and the transcription services of his favorite human, Susan Orlean, has put together 50 delectable recipes for snacks, meals, and treats for your canine companion. Maybe you're cooking everything because your collie has colitis or your Akita has a wheat allergy or your older dog just isn't thriving on commercial kibble. Maybe you're mixing up the occasional biscuit or treat to help your best fur-bearing friend over that I-just-ate-a-tennis- ball-and-don't-feel-so-good episode. Whatever the reason, the recipes in this book (which have been approved by dog trainer and nutritional consultant Stacy Alldredge) will satisfy the most discerning doggie palate. Many of them, in fact, can be shared with a favorite human (though preferably not from the same dish). Illustrated with more than 50 endearing black-and-white photographs of Cooper and friends by Cami Johnson, and liberally seasoned with stories, quotes, and nutrition tips, Throw Me a Bone makes a dog's dinner something to look forward to.

Book Description
**The first romantic comedy in a new series by USA Today-bestselling author Angela Casella!** Does it count as cruel and unusual punishment if you’re forced to be an extra with your enemy? Lucas I figured being a movie extra would be a harmless distraction—a way for me to forget that my life is imploding and I'm the one who pulled the trigger. But it turns out ninety percent of being an extra is sitting around, so I have nothing to do but dwell. Worse, I have to spend every last minute on set with a woman who’s connected to the incident that sent my life off course. I’m determined to help her, thereby evening the scales of justice imbalanced by my parents, but Delia Evans is so sunshiney and naïve and… Well, extra. And, to my utter astonishment, I find myself wanting more of her. *** Delia It seemed like fate when I got hired to be in this movie. My high school crush is the lead actor, and judging by the number of times my mother has accused me of being dramatic, I’m a natural actress. Only it turns out my former crush is a jerk, being an extra is shockingly boring, and I’m paired with a man whose last name ensures he's my enemy. Lucas Burke is gorgeous, but even if he weren’t a Burke, I could never fall for such a conceited know-it-all. Or at least that’s what I think until accidents start happening on set…

Book Description
Will Gare rob a legendary grave to ransom his grocery store bagger gang from a demonic painting? My Name is Gaius Teutoberg. Don't laugh, and I won't have to hurt you. My best friend Sparky appears with some idiotic scheme that turns my life upside down. Or maybe turns me dead. My day job? I bag groceries and roll them to cars for tips at the American Commissary in Wiesbaden, Germany. I don't have a night job. Good thing, because I'm not a night person...even though I'm a vampire. So this latest Sparky-induced buffoonery begins with a literal knife in the back and progresses to a thousand-year-old shrine containing the bones of a legendary German hero...and my first attempt at grave robbery. I'll battle a sexy Hungarian warrior-woman assassin, match wits and muscles with some ugly demons and take a trip to the other side of the veil to save some people I've grown to love. There's also an angel involved. A real one.

Book Description
Marvin Heemeyer was a blue-collar man whose greatest joy in life was to see his muffler-repair shop prosper. When he felt the government of Granby, Colorado, was conspiring against him and the success of his business, he decided to take action. He did not take his vengeance by walking into the town hall with a gun. Nor did he build bombs and deliver them to local politicians. No, Marvin was more ingenious than that. He put his welding skills to work. In so doing, Marvin Heemeyer made history as one of the most original, complex, controversial, and misunderstood criminals in history. Malice is the story of his life leading up to his one-of-a-kind crime. Exhaustively researched, author Liam Llewellyn portrays the story in its entirety, then poses an alternative interpretation. Malice challenges the reader to ask such questions as: Do governments conspire against individuals? In the wake of enormous tragedy, do governments tell the truth? What is a criminal? Do two wrongs make a right?

Book Description
A fangirl tattoo artist finds herself falling head over heels for the client she never saw coming… Loud, brash, and tattooed Sophie Kincaid has always been the odd one out with her stylistic choices. She's as far from 'girlfriend-material' as can be, and she has no idea why that upon meeting calm, stoic and beautiful Tommy (aka Russia) Ivanov that she wants to hold that role in his life. It could be the fact that despite his impeccable style he doesn't look at her like she's some party girl only looking for a good time, or maybe because he seems genuinely interested about her work, about her as a person. Maybe it's the fact that Sophie always goes after what she wants, even if she can't have it. When Russia's past comes calling, Sophie has to wonder if the quiet, controlled and image-conscious man will fight to have her in his life. Can Sophie find love with a man who seems to be her total opposite?
