Abbie Greenwood wants to save the world. But the L.A. TV station where she works won’t let her do the globally important stories she wants to do, and now the “guys upstairs” are suggesting she mix a little of “the nasty” into her helping-people segments . Afraid the TV biz is going to suck out her soul, Abbie takes all the time-off she’s saved and housesits for her sister in the suburbs of Houston. Once she arrives, Abbie causes a ruckus with a column she guest-writes for the neighborhood newsletter and butts heads with the president of the homeowner’s association from across the street. Rick’s a real hunk (yum!) of a lawyer (yuck!) who drives a fancy pickup (wasting natural resources), is an ex-rodeo cowboy (too macho, but kinda hot). Unfortunately, he’s also irresistible and available since his wife took off, leaving him with their six-year-old daughter. After some malicious neighborhood mischief followed by a hot encounter in his kitchen, Abbie decides she’d better stay away or this guy could change her life in a way she never thought she wanted. But when her volunteer job, teaching English as a Second Language, gets her arrested on suspicion of smuggling illegal aliens, who is the only emergency contact her sister left? Mr. Hunky-Annoying-Across-the-Street-Lawyer, of course. And as Abbie feels herself getting “sucked in” by Rick, she realizes life’s decisions aren’t always as black and white as she’d like them to be.

This heartfelt collection is a testament to sociology’s power to heal people and transform societies. The world is a tough place right now. Climate change, income inequality, racist violence, and the erosion of democracy have exposed the vulnerability of our individual and collective futures. But as the sociologists gathered here by Marika Lindholm and Elizabeth Wood show, no matter how helpless we might feel, it’s vital that we discover new paths toward healing and change. The short, accessible, emotionally and intellectually powerful essays in Between Us offer a transformative new way to think about sociology and its ability to fuel personal and social change. These forty-five essays reflect a diverse range of experiences. Whether taking an adult son with autism grocery shopping or fighting fires in Barcelona, contending with sexism at the beach or facing racism at a fertility clinic, celebrating one’s immigrant heritage, or acknowledging one’s KKK ancestors, this book shows students that sociology is deeply rooted in everyday life and can be used to help us process and understand it. A perfect introduction to the discipline and why it matters, Between Us will resonate with students from all backgrounds as they embark on their academic journey.

Book your ticket to Magic Island, where the potions are brewed fresh daily, the beaches are perfect for creature-watching, and the fangs and fur are on full display. The last murder Wren Winters investigated ended in disaster, leaving a killer free to roam the streets and the witch-in-training desperate for a fresh start. Vowing to never wear her detective cap again, Wren is eager to turn her attention to more pressing matters, like trying to wrangle her out-of-control magic while keeping her secret—and her life—safe. And if she can figure out a way to capture the man in black’s affections once and for all? So much the better. Bodies seem to follow Wren wherever she roams, though, and it isn’t long before yet another turns up… and this time, a close friend’s innocence is in question. Before she can even open up her trusty notebook, Wren is plonked down into the middle of a murder mystery once again, and this time, she’s on a hunt to discover the truth behind a mythical rainbow… and the endless riches promised to those who find it. But, like every other promise that seems too good to be true, sometimes all that glitters isn’t gold. Author's Note: Each book includes a self-contained mystery, but there are longer, ongoing subplots that continue throughout the series.

The Sons of Odin motorcycle club is back! Violetta Rand follows up Persuasion (“A seriously sexy thrill ride!”—Stacey Kennedy) with a sizzling short novel that takes passion to the brink of chaos . . . and beyond. Ambitious young attorney Tina Bethel doesn’t have time for commitment, but she wouldn’t pass up some hot, no-strings sex with the right guy—like Sons of Odin officer Vincent Ramos. Six feet, five inches of solid muscle and biker masculinity, he revs Tina up like no man ever has. The trouble is, every time they get physical, Tina’s cravings are never quenched—because Vincent always pumps the brakes before the point of no return. With her sexy body packaged in a short skirt, Tina’s enough to drive any man crazy. Vincent isn’t sure how he’s resisted her shameless come-ons. He just knows that if he gives in, he won’t be able to stop—and after two failed marriages, he can’t afford any more broken promises. But when a disgruntled client of Tina’s starts stalking her, Vincent has to make up his mind about his true feelings—fast. Because if he’s willing to put his body in the line of fire, he should be able to risk his heart in the name of love. Praise for Possession “Violetta Rand puts the romance into her 1%er! Vincent is enough to make any reader swoon. I loved the ride!”—Megan Crane, USA Today bestselling author of Make You Burn and Edge of Temptation “I thoroughly enjoyed Possession, a great read with a smoking-hot MC hero and a fun heroine.”—Carla Swafford, author of Hidden Heat “Sizzling chemistry and a heart-melting biker hero will leave you unable to put the book down. The gripping suspense might have something to do with that too.”—Stina Lindenblatt, author of This One Moment “There’s plenty of conflict [and] sexual tension in Rand’s second Sons of Odin MC romance. The byplay between Tina and Vincent is worth the read.”—RT Book Reviews “Violetta rocked another book in this series and she keeps adding more and more suspense. . . . She knows how to write an amazing end in every one of her books!”—Collector of Book Boyfriends & Girlfriends “This was a good book! Twist, turns and some copulating! Vincent is such a sweetheart and I love the lengths that he’ll go to protect Tina.”—Once Upon an Alpha Includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

Surly, rude, selfish, and inconveniently attractive. Meet Milo Papatonis, the king of all jerks. I’m not normally one to judge, but I’ve been down this particular road before and I can unequivocally say he’s earned his title. It’s not enough that Milo crushed my dreams when we were kids, but now I’m somehow being forced to dwell under the same roof with his ill-mannered ass. If he thinks his sexy shower noises and ovary-imploding smile can tempt me into forgetting, he’s nuts. This situation is strictly business and blessedly temporary. Because my dreams are still out there waiting for me, and they won’t be found anywhere near this town—or this guy. Jerks do nothing but break hearts, of that I’m certain. But I’ve been known to be wrong a time or two...
