The difference between the wrath of God and the wrath of your
mother is that eventually God forgives you.
Finley Anderson Tanner just landed a quaint new cottage on posh
Palm Beach. Not bad for an underachieving, sample-sale-shopping
paralegal -- until she finds the place in shambles. She should have
known better than to accept her overbearing mother's offer to sell
her a house unseen at a bargain-basement mortgage rate. Good-bye
Rolex dreams. At this rate, she'll be shopping designer outlets
forever.
When Finley discovers a skeleton in her new closet, right where
her Jimmy Choos should be, a total home renovation is the least of
her worries. Sure, she knows how to catch a crook, but when a
girl's sandwiched between sexy P.I. Liam McGarrity and her hot new
boss, defense attorney Tony Caprelli, she can only be headed for
commitment. To an institution. With her fabulous (but slightly more
successful) friends to keep her sane and her interfering mother out
of town, Finley vows to get this bad guy -- and decorate her new
house -- even if she has to pay full price.
Shopaholic meets Stephanie Plum in the fourth novel of the wickedly
funny series featuring paralegal-turned-crime-fighter Finley
Anderson Tanner. Kidnapping is so last season. Couture-conscious
paralegal Finley Anderson Tanner knew it was risky to break her
cardinal shopping rule--never pay full price--for a last-minute
date with her gorgeous new boss, but the hidden costs of her little
black dress have put her whole life in the red. After the romantic
evening turns into a disaster thanks to impossibly sexy and utterly
infuriating private eye Liam McGarrity, Finley finds herself down
two thousand dollars and out two potential boyfriends. Naturally,
she turns to eBay. To help pay off her debt, she tries to sell the
vintage pageant jewelry she received for doing law partner Ellen
Lieberman a favor. But when Finley's best friend abruptly
disappears while helping to wrap up the auction, Finley fears the
worst. Does frumpy Ellen have a sinister double life as a beauty
queen? Is the auction's high bidder, Tiara64, more suspicious than
her name suggests? Can Finley possibly hunt for clues without
irresistible Liam swooping in to bail her out of trouble . . .
again? Rhonda Pollero's hilarious new novel featuring fashionista
crime-fighter Finley Anderson Tanner is the must-have mystery of
the season.
Adoption doesn't end when the papers are signed -- not for the
birth mother, not for the adoptive mother and not for the adopted
child. It is a decision with consequences that last a lifetime.
While there are many wonderful books on how to adopt, when to
adopt, making an adoption plan, and the like, ADOPTION IS FOREVER
is at times humorous, sometimes gut-wrenching, but always honest.
"A refreshingly new look at adoption," reviews Roger H. Rubin,
Ph.D.
There is nothing more dangerous than desire . . . Emma McKinley is
a bright young lawyer with a very dark secret: She's the daughter
of an assassin. Twenty years ago, her father shot and killed the
president and Emma has been desperate to understand why ever since.
She's changed her name, moved around . . . but the past keeps
hunting her down. First came an irresistible job offer, luring her
back where the assassination occurred. And now Emma is receiving
mysterious newspaper clippings about the shooting as a terrible
reminder-and a deadly threat . . . Sheriff Conner Kavanaugh has
been burned before. But from the moment he meets Emma, there's
something about her he can't resist. Something is haunting her-that
much is clear. And as the threats against her mount, he'll do
anything to protect her and win her trust. If the past doesn't
catch up to them first.
First comes love, then comes fear . . . After a whirlwind romance,
Darby Hayes Grisom married the man of her dreams. Smart, handsome,
ambitious, Sean was everything she always thought she wanted.
Little did she know that one year later that dream would turn into
her worst nightmare. Sean is moody, angry, violent. Violent enough
to kill. When Darby realizes she's pregnant she knows Sean will
never let her go. Attorney Jack Kavanaugh is the only person Darby
can trust to help her with her plan to save herself and her baby.
But the deeper Jack gets involved in protecting Darby, the deeper
the feelings between them become. A complication Darby can't
afford--because her husband is watching their every move and he'll
do anything to get her--and their baby--back.
Lured into danger, trapped by desire . . . Chasyn Summers has a
target on her back. As the key witness in a murder case, she's
risking her life to testify in court -- and she needs protection.
But when she's assigned a personal bodyguard who's disarmingly
tough -- and distractingly gorgeous -- it's not just her life
that's in danger. It's her heart . . . Declan Kavanaugh works
strictly by the rules. Never get too close to a client. And never,
ever, fall in love. But he's never protected anyone as beautiful,
or as intriguing, as Chasyn. Surrendering to passion is a risk they
can't afford to take, especially when danger meets desire and
Declan realizes Chasyn Summers may be the ultimate trap.
