"Manhattan’s most eligible bachelor, Kyle Hunter, is a Marine Corps vet, the son of a US Senator and the prodigal heir of American corporate royalty. He’s rich, smart and a notorious flirt. Kyle Hunter is also in love with his best friend. So why did he tell Manny they could never see each other again?
Manny Tescadero isn’t about to be hurt twice. He’s lost a lot and if there’s one thing he learned in Afghanistan, it’s to defend yourself and those who need you at all costs. When Rebecca Sinclair lands on his doorstep, his honor won’t let him turn her away. His heart won’t let him pretend there isn’t more to it than a soldier’s code. But new love interests aren’t part of the mission plan; not when he’s still in love with someone else.
Rebecca Sinclair has never been good at letting loose. As a librarian she has her dream job and a new start with an amazing apartment in the city that never sleeps. She thought she was happy until everything she’s worked for is gone in a flash. Turns out having it all may just mean something else entirely.
There are a mountain of reasons why they shouldn’t be together and not one stands a chance of keeping them apart."
"Anne
Crunch time.
Two words every game developer fears, and I’m living the horror of impossibly long work days, that bleed into weekends.
The only upside is spending a lot of that time with my sexy-as-sin boss. I probably shouldn’t get physical him, but the need for stress relief is real, and so is the size of his… desk.
Then word gets back to my best friend’s brother.
The guy whose house I practically grew up in. Who I thought saw me as a second sister. Talk about jealousy. Though I’m not sure if it’s toward me, or my boss. Apparently they hooked up a few times, too.
One thing leads to another leads to the three of us playing naked Twister without the mat.
But they’ve been keeping a secret, and it’s one I don’t know if I can forgive them for.
This is a duet narration"
"Hooking up with my brother's two best friends was a bad idea.
But when the guy I've crushed on for ages stumbles on my stash of toys, and offers to teach me how much fun they are with a partner, there's no way I'm saying no.
Especially when his boyfriend wants to watch.
It's just a one-time thing, though. Which is good, because I need headspace to focus on the Hollywood costume designer who's trying to scam me and other cosplay designers like me out of our hard-earned money. She's making my life a living hell for exposing her to the internet.
Jax and Grayson offer a tempting distraction by exposing me. In my bedroom. At a company holiday party...
If I can't unravel how I feel about them, and sift through the Hollywood-style legal trouble we've brought crashing down around us, the only things I'll be getting for Christmas are a broken career and a shattered heart.
This is a duet narration"
"Why doesn't rain fall all at once?
Can technology change the track of a hurricane?
What's the weather like on other planets?
Meteorologists Simon King and Clare Nasir reveal the captivating ways the weather works, from exploring incredible weather phenomenon (how are rainbows formed?), expertly breaking down our knowledge of the elements (could we harness the power of lightning?) to explaining the significance of weather in history (has the weather ever started a war?) and discussing the future of weather (could climate modification save the planet?).
In What Does Rain Smell Like? Simon and Clare uncover the thrilling science behind a subject that affects us all. They unearth and analyse all aspects of the weather and how it changes our lives through answering our most curious questions about the world around us.
Includes an exclusive afterword with the authors."
"I’ve always believed that if you’re not at least a little bit angry you’re probably not paying attention. Just because you’re pissed off doesn’t mean you can’t be funny too though. Laughter is a great weapon against the apathy of the everyday. So here it is: a little old school, fight the power, kick over the tables and light the carpets on fire punk rock style stand up comedy. Rant, rave, repeat and enjoy Furious."
"A rare phenomenon to say the least, Simon King is the kind of comic that comes along maybe once in a generation. Every performance is an onslaught, an unrelenting attack on the senses. He pushes his audience to keep up with him as his mind jumps around from the topical to the absurd with lightning speed and intensity. Never sure what will happen next, the audience is forced to hold on tight and be prepared for anything. His unmistakable and mind blowing style, powerful commanding stage presence and lightning wit will win you over. But the sheer hilarity and spontaneity of his performance will keep you coming back for more. Simon King is nothing short of a force of nature.

"Even as a very young child, Simon King was passionate about the natural world. Expressed in a variety of ways, from keeping faintly rotting animal parts in his underwear drawer (as a 10-year-old), to making several hundred films about wildlife, his enduring interest in all things wild and free has been a way of, rather than a part of his life.
Being savaged by a rabid cheetah, charged at by rhinos and elephants and defecated upon by a long list of birds and other animals may sound like hell to some. But these, along with countless other experiences alongside all things furry, scaly, slimy and feathery have provided him with an enormously rich bank of tales to relive and retell.
With his professional life starting aged ten, acting in a television drama called The Fox, (for which he looked after an orphaned fox for two years at home), through projects such as Planet Earth, Blue Planet, Springwatch, Autumnwatch and Big Cat Diary to name just a few, Simon King has travelled to every continent and lived in extreme conditions from remote desert to Arctic and Antarctic wilderness.
With characteristic honesty and charm, Simon King weaves his animal stories amongst encounters with extraordinary people (from the San Bushmen to David Attenborough) and astonishing places to give us a memoir that will delight readers.
