    Undone by the Earl He didn’t want a wife… But he needed one.

    Former hellraiser and infamous rogue Adrian Sinclair is ready to prove he’s a changed man. He vows to atone for his past by fulfilling his duties as the new Earl of Wareton–which includes choosing a wealthy, suitable wife. When he takes charge of his cousin’s home, his first priority is marrying off his cousin’s troublesome stepsister. However, the more time he spends with the unconventional beauty, the harder it is to deny the attraction he feels. While she’s anything but suitable, she’s everything he wants.

    She didn’t want to be alone… But she had no choice. Anna Colbrook would rather everyone think she’s content to be a spinster than have them know the truth. Unfortunately, Adrian seems determined to uncover the real reason she remains unmarried and his powers of persuasion–namely his kisses in the moonlight–awaken Anna’s long-denied dreams of love. But when a scandalous deception is revealed, she begins to doubt Adrian’s honor. Worse, the secret puts Anna in grave danger, one even Adrian might not be able to save her from.

    West with the Night
    Over 1,000 5-Star Reviews!

    Beryl Markham’s classic, engrossing memoir – a triumph of the pioneer spirit and an adventure-charged chronicle of a life lived to the fullest.

    Beryl Markham’s life was a true epic, complete with shattered societal expectations, torrid love affairs, and desperate crash landings. A rebel from a young age, the British-born Markham was raised in Kenya’s unforgiving farmlands. She learned to be a bush pilot at a time when most Africans had never seen a plane. In 1936, she accepted the ultimate challenge: to fly solo across the Atlantic.

    Her successes and her failures – and her deep, lifelong love of the “soul of Africa” – are all chronicled here with wrenching honesty and agile wit. Hailed by National Geographic as one of the greatest adventure books of all time, West with the Night is the sweeping account of a fearless and dedicated woman.

    The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains While researching the toxic and addictive properties of sugar for his New York Times bestseller Fat Chance, Robert Lustig made an alarming discovery—our pursuit of happiness is being subverted by a culture of addiction and depression from which we may never recover.
               
    In the last forty years, government legislation and subsidies have promoted ever-available temptation (sugar, drugs, social media, porn) combined with constant stress (work, home, money, Internet), with the end result of an unprecedented epidemic of addiction, anxiety, depression, and chronic disease. And with the advent of neuromarketing, corporate America has successfully imprisoned us in an endless loop of desire and consumption from which there is no obvious escape.
               
    With his customary wit and incisiveness, Lustig not only reveals the science that drives these states of mind, he points his finger directly at the corporations that helped create this mess, and the government actors who facilitated it, and he offers solutions we can all use in the pursuit of happiness, even in the face of overwhelming opposition. Always fearless and provocative, Lustig marshals a call to action, with seminal implications for our health, our well-being, and our culture.
