An ordinary Friday night out for dinner and dancing turned into a seven-month journey that cris-crossed America. When a school teacher met a truck driver, worlds collided. What began as an overnight trip to Texas ended at the Alamo, but the road led through Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Ohio, Pennsylvania and twenty-seven other states! The ride began in January and didn't end until July!

Only one person in Oak Groves is happy to see bad girl Nikki Logan back in town... Oak Groves' most beloved bachelor, Jett Avery, lives by a simple set of rules. Getting involved with a complicated woman isn't one of them. He learned that the hard way two years ago when he spent one of the most incredible nights of his life with Nikki Logan. But then she hightailed it out of town, never to be seen again-until now. It might be time to break one of those rules... Picking up the pieces of her life, Nikki is back in Oak Groves, face to face with the one man she's done her best to forget. But she has her reasons for being here-and they don't include winding up in bed with Jett. Especially since he'll never forgive her once he finds out the truth about why she's back... Praise for KC Klein's Texas Wide Open "Passionate, gritty and fast-paced...with a hot-blooded, honorable hero to make every woman's knees go weak."-Diane Whiteside "A tortured hero, a love that defies distance and time...this is a book you won't soon forget."-Cat Johnson
“Fascinating . . . memorable . . . revealing . . . perhaps the best of Carl Sagan’s books.”—The Washington Post Book World (front page review) In Cosmos, the late astronomer Carl Sagan cast his gaze over the magnificent mystery of the Universe and made it accessible to millions of people around the world. Now in this stunning sequel, Carl Sagan completes his revolutionary journey through space and time. Future generations will look back on our epoch as the time when the human race finally broke into a radically new frontier—space. In Pale Blue Dot, Sagan traces the spellbinding history of our launch into the cosmos and assesses the future that looms before us as we move out into our own solar system and on to distant galaxies beyond. The exploration and eventual settlement of other worlds is neither a fantasy nor luxury, insists Sagan, but rather a necessary condition for the survival of the human race. “Takes readers far beyond Cosmos . . . Sagan sees humanity’s future in the stars.”—Chicago Tribune
