Book excerpt: My brother's billionaire best friend is my new boss. The same man who's hated me for years, you ask? Yep, the very one. Nicholas Park has the worst reputation in the city. He isn't a man you befriend-trust me, I've tried. No, he's made it crystal clear what he thinks of me. Vain. Spoiled. Undeserving. I could probably continue, but then I'd have to ask Nick for his list, and he'd say no. Courtesy of my brother, Nick reluctantly offers me a consulting job at his firm. He expects me to turn it down, of course. I accept out of spite. Three months of arguments and dark stares. Of sudden, stolen kisses at company parties. The heat between us grows, bursting into a wildfire that threatens to consume me whole. Nick has pushed me away all these years for a reason. For your own good, as he says. I'm not the man for you. But I refuse to listen. We're done playing it safe.

Book excerpt: My one-night stand turns out to be my billion-dollar enemy. Yeah, I'm screwed-and unfortunately not that way. I meet a handsome man at the bar, the kind you only dream about. You know the one? He drinks his whiskey neat and power oozes from his suit-clad form. The night we spend together is perfect-I'll treasure the memory for as long as I live. Until I discover who he is. Who's the billionaire asshole trying to tear down my bookstore? My one-night stand. Correction: my rich, handsome, calculating one-night stand. I hate his determination and his ruthlessness. I hate the way he smirks and the thick fall of his hair. But most of all, I hate that I can't look at him without remembering our night together-a night he's keen to repeat. During the day, we're at war. At night, we're lovers. Sorry. I think they call it, ahem, fudge buddies. The two things are strictly separated. No funny business. No emotions. And definitely no falling for him.

Book excerpt: House-sitting a mansion for the summer sounds easy, right? Until my rich, single dad neighbor catches me in a compromising position. Hint: I'd just taken off my bikini top. He's billionaire Ethan Carter, a living legend in the tech world and father to two adorable little girls. Oh, and he's the kind of ruggedly handsome that belongs in a calendar with firefighters and puppies. "Welcome to the neighborhood," he says, grinning. The catch? He can afford to live here-I can't. Differences in income and age make anything more unthinkable, not to mention he's coming off a terrible divorce and has no time to himself. We agree we can't be anything more, even as neighborly drinks turn into not-so-neighborly kisses, and kisses turn into... well. Let's just say he finds creative ways for us to use my kitchen counter. He doesn't know if he's ready to trust again. I don't know if I'm ready to give my heart. But as summer ends, we might not have choice in the matter.

Book excerpt: Liam Carter was once my best friend and childhood crush. Now he's a playboy billionaire in need of a fake fiancée. The first time I meet Liam again after fifteen years, I ruin his suit with marinara sauce at a fancy party. I'm the caterer, he's the guest. It's only mildly humiliating. But the second time I see him? That's when he pops the question all girls long to hear. Will you be my fake fiancée? Apparently, he needs to shed his playboy image, and fast. Liam's nothing like the boy I remember. Tall, broad and poured into tailored suits, he now has more money than he can count. In exchange for my help, he vows to make my cheating ex jealous, showing up to my job with roses in hand and crooked smiles. It's a game, just like the ones we played as kids. Well, maybe not just like those-they never involved heated kisses. But as make-believe bleeds into reality, I can't stop wondering... are we too different now to make something last?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Alaska pollock is everywhere. If you're eating fish but you don't know what kind it is, it's almost certainly pollock. Prized for its generic fish taste, pollock masquerades as crab meat in california rolls and seafood salads, and it feeds millions as fish sticks in school cafeterias and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches at McDonald's. That ubiquity has made pollock the most lucrative fish harvest in America--the fishery in the United States alone has an annual value of over one billion dollars. But even as the money rolls in, pollock is in trouble: in the last few years, the pollock population has declined by more than half, and some scientists are predicting the fishery's eventual collapse. Crucial to understanding the pollock fishery, he shows, is recognizing what aspects of its natural history make pollock so very desirable to fish, while at the same time making it resilient, yet highly vulnerable to overfishing. Bailey delves into the science, politics, and economics surrounding Alaska pollock in the Bering Sea, detailing the development of the fishery, the various political machinations that have led to its current management, and, perhaps most important, its impending demise. He approaches his subject from multiple angles, bringing in the perspectives of fishermen, politicians, environmentalists, and biologists, and drawing on revealing interviews with players who range from Greenpeace activists to fishing industry lawyers."--Amazon.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The story of how the NFL, over a period of nearly two decades, denied and sought to cover up mounting evidence of the connection between football and brain damage “League of Denial may turn out to be the most influential sports-related book of our time.”—The Boston Globe “Professional football players do not sustain frequent repetitive blows to the brain on a regular basis.” So concluded the National Football League in a December 2005 scientific paper on concussions in America’s most popular sport. That judgment, implausible even to a casual fan, also contradicted the opinion of a growing cadre of neuroscientists who worked in vain to convince the NFL that it was facing a deadly new scourge: a chronic brain disease that was driving an alarming number of players—including some of the all-time greats—to madness. In League of Denial, award-winning ESPN investigative reporters Mark Fainaru-Wada and Steve Fainaru tell the story of a public health crisis that emerged from the playing fields of our twenty-first-century pastime. Everyone knows that football is violent and dangerous. But what the players who built the NFL into a $10 billion industry didn’t know—and what the league sought to shield from them—is that no amount of padding could protect the human brain from the force generated by modern football, that the very essence of the game could be exposing these players to brain damage. In a fast-paced narrative that moves between the NFL trenches, America’s research labs, and the boardrooms where the NFL went to war against science, League of Denial examines how the league used its power and resources to attack independent scientists and elevate its own flawed research—a campaign with echoes of Big Tobacco’s fight to deny the connection between smoking and lung cancer. It chronicles the tragic fates of players like Hall of Fame Pittsburgh Steelers center Mike Webster, who was so disturbed at the time of his death he fantasized about shooting NFL executives, and former San Diego Chargers great Junior Seau, whose diseased brain became the target of an unseemly scientific battle between researchers and the NFL. Based on exclusive interviews, previously undisclosed documents, and private emails, this is the story of what the NFL knew and when it knew it—questions at the heart of a crisis that threatens football, from the highest levels all the way down to Pop Warner.
