Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Haleigh Lovell, comes a new romantic comedy. "Edric and Lucy are probably my favorite couple in the Hemsworth Brothers series. You will love them so much. I really couldn't put this one down. This is a need-to one-click book." ~ B.Wise, Amazon Top 1K Reviewer "This book will give you a major case of the laugh out louds and a big dose of the feels." ~ Gladys, Goodreads Top 5 Reviewer She is a good time--trouble, but fun. And I'm here for a good time, not a long time. So let the good times roll. "You're a bad idea." "But..." she ventured. "But I like bad ideas." We don't make mistakes, right? Just happy little accidents. At least that's what Bob Ross said. And my dad. Yep, he says that, too. Every year, on my birthday, he reminds me I'm a 'happy little accident' because the condom broke. But, hey! Wasn't the creation of penicillin a happy accident that resulted from the discovery of mold growing in an agar dish? And while that accidental discovery changed the course of medicine, Lucy changed the course of my life. Like a staph infection that somehow turns into an abscess that takes over your limbs, Lucy took over my heart--quickly, painfully, unexpectedly, but treatable with antibiotics. Bold, brash and unapologetically herself, Lucy represents anarchy from women I typically dated. She is my 'Beautiful Oops.' Lucy Lawless is my good mistake. Note: THE GOOD MISTAKE is a full-length novel packed with humor and heart. It's Book 3 in the Hemsworth Brothers series, but it can also be read as a standalone. REVIEWS: "This book is nothing short of laugh out loud moments of pure hilariousness! I was rolling. Like stomach hurting from laughing. Highly recommend you read this book! ✮✮✮✮✮" ~ Book Momma "While Lucy and Edric's meet cute isn't a new concept, the way their relationship played out was beyond amazing. Their banter, the effortless back and forth, had me laughing out loud, smiling like a loon in public, and getting a little steamed up at certain points." ~ Traci, Goodreads "Edric and Lucy are one of the BEST couples ever! Best book that I have read in a long time and I read alot of books. This had everything I look for: funny, heartwarming, sexy, great characters, great second characters, good story line, and hot chemistry." ~ Sue, GR "Do not start this book unless you have all day to read it, because once you start you will not be able to put it down. I have loved all the books in this series, but Eric and Lucy's is my favorite." ~ Jeanene, GR "These two just fit together wonderfully. They were so well suited, the banter was hilarious. There was no over the top angst just a genuine love story which had them deal with things straight on. There was communication and honesty, what a refreshing change!" ~ P. White, GR "From start to finish expect non stop laughter! The back and forth banter between these two was amazing!" ~ Words We Love "The Good Mistake is a tale of an unexpected duo who decide to fake a relationship and don't really realize when they stop faking it. Isn't that the usual story? But this one is a bit different." ~ Mells View "The banter and one-liners were classic." ~ Sarah Green "Lucy and Edric are an absolute riot." ~ Amy, Goodreads

Ender and Adelaide will give you life! I was laughing so hard, I cried, but my heart was oh so warm. I'm just so in love with their story! Their relationship is one for the books, and that's saying something considering this is a book." ~ Eb's Dirty Diary "A delicious masterpiece of a story." ~ M. Michelle, GR "Once again, Ender and Adelaide stole my heart." ~ R. Smith An athlete. A scientist. A love story. I'm addicted to her; she's the real deal and every woman other than her would be a placebo. Her name is Adelaide and she's a scientist with a brilliant and in-depth mind that analyzes and dissects everything. Yep. She knows things. A lot of things. What do I know? I know I need to make her mine. Note: THE FOREPLAY is a sequel to THE SLAM but it can also be read as a standalone.

She is able to incorporate everything in this book: sweetness, hotness, angst, humor, wit, seriousness, playfulness, and realism at just the right times throughout this book." ~ Konnie, GR "An addictive must read." ~ Ofelia, GR "This is a beautiful story of love. The story grabs the reader from the first page and I was unable to put it down." ~ Lori, GR

Book excerpt: “Captivating, fun, and totally swoon-worthy! This is the kind of story my reader heart craves.” —Rachel Harris, New York Times bestselling author of Eyes on Me Available in print for the first time, and with exclusive bonus content only found in the print version! Fall in love with Sally and Becks all over again. Adorkable (ah-dor-kuh-bul): Descriptive term meaning to be equal parts dorky and adorable. For reference, see Sally Spitz. Seventeen-year-old Sally Spitz is done with dating. Or at least, she's done with the horrible blind dates/hookups/sneak attacks her matchmaking bestie, Hooker, sets her up on. There's only so much one geek girl and Gryffindor supporter can take. Her solution: She needs a fake boyfriend. And fast. Enter Becks, soccer phenom, all-around hottie, and Sally's best friend practically since birth. When Sally asks Becks to be her F.B.F. (fake boyfriend), Becks is only too happy to be used. He'd do anything for Sal—even if that means giving her PDA lessons in his bedroom, saying she's "more than pretty," and expertly kissing her at parties. The problem: Sally's been in love with Becks all her life—and he's completely clueless. This book features two best friends, one special-edition Yoda Snuggie, countless beneath-the-ear kisses, and begs the question: Who wants a real boyfriend when faking it is so much more fun?

Book excerpt: From the USA Today bestselling author of The Hating Game, soon to be a movie starring Lucy Hale and Austin Stowell, an unforgettable romantic comedy about a woman who finally has a shot at her long time crush—if she dares. Crush (n.): a strong and often short-lived infatuation, particularly for someone beyond your reach… Darcy Barrett has undertaken a global survey of men. She’s travelled the world, and can categorically say that no one measures up to Tom Valeska, whose only flaw is that Darcy’s twin brother Jamie saw him first and claimed him forever as his best friend. Despite Darcy’s best efforts, Tom’s off limits and loyal to her brother, 99%. That’s the problem with finding her dream man at age eight and peaking in her photography career at age twenty—ever since, she’s had to learn to settle for good enough. When Darcy and Jamie inherit a tumble-down cottage from their grandmother, they’re left with strict instructions to bring it back to its former glory and sell the property. Darcy plans to be in an aisle seat halfway across the ocean as soon as the renovations start, but before she can cut and run, she finds a familiar face on her porch: house-flipper extraordinaire Tom’s arrived, he’s bearing power tools, and he’s single for the first time in almost a decade. Suddenly Darcy’s considering sticking around to make sure her twin doesn’t ruin the cottage’s inherent magic with his penchant for grey and chrome. She’s definitely not staying because of her new business partner’s tight t-shirts, or that perfect face that's inspiring her to pick up her camera again. Soon sparks are flying—and it’s not the faulty wiring. It turns out one percent of Tom’s heart might not be enough for Darcy anymore. This time around, she’s switching things up. She’s going to make Tom Valeska 99 percent hers. This next hilarious romance includes a special PS section with two Happily Ever Afters—one for this novel featuring Darcy and Tom and the other, an epilogue featuring fan favorites Lucy Hutton and Josh Templeman from The Hating Game!

Book excerpt: Sherlock Holmes and Irene Doyle are as riveted as the rest of the audience. They are celebrating Irene's sixteenth birthday at the Egyptian Hall as Alistair Hemsworth produces a real and very deadly dragon before their eyes. This single, fantastic illusion elevates the previously unheralded magician to star status, making him the talk of London. He even outshines the Wizard of Nottingham, his rival on and off the stage. Sherlock and Irene rush backstage after the show to meet the great man, only to witness Inspector Lestrade and his son arrest the performer. It seems one-upmanship has not been as satisfying to Hemsworth as the notion of murder. The Wizard is missing; his spectacles and chunks of flesh have been discovered in pools of blood in Hemsworth's secret workshop. That, plus the fact that Nottingham has stolen Hemsworth's wife away, speak of foul play and motive. There is no body, but there has certainly been a grisly death. The Lestrades are certain they have their man, but ever-observant Sherlock is not so sure. Night visits to the workshop turn up clues that don't add up to a closed case. The deeper Holmes digs, the more this mystery becomes an illusion; a deadly game of smoke and mirrors. Before it plays out, the boy will have to consider far more than Hemsworth's guilt or innocence. He may even come to believe in magic and the existence of dragons.

Sixteen-year-old Samantha Taylor is used to having things go her way. She's head cheerleader and has all the right friends and a steady stream of boyfriends. But when she tanks the SATs, her automatic assumptions about going to college don't appear to be so automatic anymore. She determines that her only hope for college admission is to win the election for student body president. Unfortunately, with her razor wit and acid tongue, she's better suited to dishing out insults than winning votes. When she brashly bets her classmate Logan that she can go two weeks without uttering a single insult, Samantha immediately realizes that she may have bitten off more than she can chew. And when her current boyfriend dumps her, less than three weeks before the prom, it couldn't be a worse time to be forced to keep her opinions to herself. Finding a new boyfriend will be a challenge now that Logan shadows her every move, hoping to catch her slipping back into her old ways. Samantha is determined to win the election and find a dream date for the prom, no matter what it takes. After all . . . all's fair in love and war (and high school!).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surfing in Far Rockaway, romantic obsession, and Moby-Dick converge in this winning and refreshing memoir Justin Hocking lands in New York hopeful but adrift—he's jobless, unexpectedly overwhelmed and disoriented by the city, struggling with anxiety and obsession, and attempting to maintain a faltering long-distance relationship. As a man whose brand of therapy has always been motion, whether in a skate park or on a snowdrift, Hocking needs an outlet for his restlessness. Then he spies his first New York surfer hauling a board to the subway, and its not long before he's a member of the vibrant and passionate surfing community at Far Rockaway. But in the wake of a traumatic robbery incident, the dark undercurrents of his ocean-obsession pull him further and further out on his own night sea journey. With Moby-Dick as a touchstone, and interspersed with interludes on everything from the history of surfing to Scientology's naval ties to the environmental impact of the Iraq War, The Great Floodgates of the Wonderworld is a multifaceted and enduring modern odyssey from a memorable and whip-smart new literary voice.
