Then his former bureau chief shows up at his house with a risky new assignment: travel undercover to Moscow and locate a Russian agent believed to be killing members of a clandestine US spy cell known as the seven sisters.

    Desperate for money, Jenkins agrees to the mission and heads to the Russian capital.

Theirs becomes a partnership of the mind and of the heart, but there might not be room for more than one genius in a marriage.

    Being stuck in a time loop sucks, especially when I die on the same day, at the hands of the same man, over and over again. But in Life Number Seven, I’m determined to change my fate.

    You’d think being the princess of all shifters would come with benefits and glamour and freedom–it doesn’t. It comes with isolation, constant fear, and a fabric over my head the whole damn time.

    Nobody will believe me or lift a finger to help me figure out why I’m stuck in this loop, not even my father, the dragon king. If I dare to even mention it to him, I end up with a bloody lip. Yeah, he’s a very hard man to talk to. That’s why I have no other choice but to switch places with my maid and run away.

    But things don’t exactly go as planned when I’m kidnapped and find myself a captor of my father’s sworn enemy. Just my luck.

    Lucien Di Laurier is a cocky bastard who thinks I’m an object to be owned. It doesn’t help that he’s impossibly beautiful, and can literally control the air in my lungs with a wave of his hand.

He vows to break me until I tell him all of my secrets, but…

    That still doesn’t stop me.

    He’d kill me if he finds out my name. He’d probably do worse things before that, but I can’t help myself. He’s everything I was never allowed to have. He’s blinding light and passion and life, the perfect mistake wrapped up in a pretty ribbon, just for me.

    So I take what I can get even knowing how it will all end…

    The Wrong End of the Table: A Mostly Comic Memoir of a Muslim Arab American Woman Just Trying to Fit in What happens when a shy, awkward Arab girl with a weird name and an unfortunate propensity toward facial hair is uprooted from her comfortable (albeit fascist-regimed) homeland of Iraq and thrust into the cold, alien town of Columbus, Ohio—with its Egg McMuffins, Barbie dolls, and kids playing doctor everywhere you turned?

    This is Ayser Salman’s story. First comes Emigration, then Naturalization, and finally Assimilation—trying to fit in among her blonde-haired, blue-eyed counterparts, and always feeling left out. On her journey to Americanhood, Ayser sees more naked butts at pre-kindergarten daycare that she would like, breaks one of her parents’ rules (“Thou shalt not participate as an actor in the school musical where a male cast member rests his head in thy lap”), and other things good Muslim Arab girls are not supposed to do. And, after the 9/11 attacks, she experiences the isolation of being a Muslim in her own country. It takes hours of therapy, fifty-five rounds of electrolysis, and some ill-advised romantic dalliances for Ayser to grow into a modern Arab American woman who embraces her cultural differences.

    Part memoir and part how-not-to guide, The Wrong End of the Table is everything you wanted to know about Arabs but were afraid to ask. This is the story of every American outsider on a path to find themselves in a country of beautiful diversity.

    The London season is in full fling at the end of the roaring 1920s, but the Honourable Phryne Fisher—she of the green-gray eyes, diamant garters, and outfits that should not be sprung suddenly on those of nervous dispositions—is rapidly tiring of the tedium of arranging flowers, making polite conversations with retired colonels, and dancing with weak-chinned men. Instead, Phryne decides it might be rather amusing to try her hand at being a lady detective in Melbourne, Australia.

    Almost immediately from the time she books into the Windsor Hotel, Phryne is embroiled in mystery: poisoned wives, cocaine smuggling rings, corrupt cops, and communism—not to mention erotic encounters with the beautiful Russian dancer, Sasha de Lisse—until her adventure reaches its steamy end in the Turkish baths of Little Lonsdale Street. Tension and danger rise like steam, and Phryne must save herself and other young women before it’s too late.
