When her dream unravels, he’ll give what’s left of his powers to keep it together. After God hung the “closed” sign on Hell’s gates, ex-demon Belial got a new name and a new job description — Bill Lisle, high-end SoCal contractor. Thanks to a beachfront home thrown into the bargain, he can’t lie. Topside life definitely doesn’t suck. With a challenging reno in his rearview mirror, Bill’s looking forward to kicking back with a beer and some holiday bowl games. But an emergency call to pick up another contractor’s dropped project — and his new, drop-dead gorgeous client — has Bill suspecting God’s pulling a few chalk strings. After all, the old man’s been dropping hints it’s time to settle down. Callie Donaldson’s fill-in contractor is the answer to her prayers, but did he have to be this hot? With a fashion design company to run and her eleven-year-old daughter to raise, dating isn’t even on her radar. Instead, getting her house ready for the party to launch her new line in time for Christmas is her number-one priority. But when it comes to timing, God has it all figured out. Even when it appears the only presents waiting under Callie’s tree are broken dreams, a broken career...and maybe a broken heart. Note: Wish Upon a Star is the final, standalone book in “The Devil You Know” series. Contains a devilishly handsome ex-demon contractor, a designer with a dream, a meddling daughter, and a touch of holiday magic.

Learning and Not Learning in the Heritage Language Classroom, a critical ethnography, describes the first year of a teacher-founded charter high school and presents a case-study of compulsory Spanish heritage language instruction with two Spanish-language teachers, one English dominant and the other Spanish dominant. The study follows the same cohort of Mexican-origin students to their humanities-English class, bringing into focus what works and what does not with this group of learners. Unlike many Spanish heritage language studies, the students in this book did not choose to take part in Spanish class and thus provide unusually raw feedback on their teachers and classes. The engagement and resistance of these students suggests pedagogical directions for engaging Spanish heritage language learners. The book will be of interest to scholars, administrators, students and teachers involved in the delivery and assessment of heritage language classes.

As the sheriff of the small town of Shadows Landing, South Carolina, Granger usually dealt with ornery alligators, fights over the best BBQ style, and the occasional shoot-out when his friends brought trouble home. Granger watched those friends get married one at a time, but he knew that wasn’t his fate. An auto accident had left Granger with scarring that he hid under his uniform. Women seemed to cringe when they saw it, so Granger gave up on relationships. Then he lost his heart to the most confident, intelligent, and sexy woman he’d ever met. But what would a woman like that want with a damaged man like him? Olivia Townsend was a nightmare in heels in the courtroom. She was a lawyer for the two most powerful men in the country. She was used to taking down every opponent who crossed her. However, Olivia was now in the path of a stalker and his deadly game. It started with the feeling of being watched. Then the threatening notes began. But when the stalker tries to attack her, it is Granger Fox that saves her. As Granger and Olivia rush to stop the escalating threats, it’s not just bullets flying, but sparks too. Can Olivia find the strength to open her heart while Granger learns to trust again? And more importantly, can they do it before time runs out and the person behind it all gets tired of playing their game? Because in this game, there can be only one winner.
