Product Description
The perfect cure for the perfect crime...Don't miss this suspense from the New York Times best selling author of the Hannah Swensen mysteries.
The Perfect Cure
On the surface they are beautiful and talented. But few know of the harrowing darkness inside each of them, how close they are to losing their tenuous grip on sanity. Dr. Elias is their only hope. But he's dying. And he's made his cold, final judgment: Those he can't cure, he must kill.
For The Perfect Crime
In order for Dr. Elias's deadly prescription to succeed, none of the eight patients must know someone is stalking them, murdering them one by one. Even if they were to suspect that their lives are in danger, no one would believe them. But if there's any chance they can stay alive, they must face the madness within. . .

Customer Review: "I was so entranced by this that I couldn't put it down. It's intense and full of emotion. Five stars!"
Vladamir of Kessen, Duke of Lakeshire Castle, is feared as a demon in the land of Wessex. The Kings have granted him a title of nobility in exchange for his part as a political prisoner. Discontent, he bides his time in his new home until war will once again rip through the land. But boredom soon turns to devious pleasure as the daughter of his most hated enemy is left for dead at his castle gate. Now the monster bides his time plotting revenge.
Lady Eden of Hawks' Nest doesn't know what to think of the man who saved her life, but she can't wrench her thoughts away. His words are those of a tyrant, true to his vicious reputation, but his touch is that of a man, stirring passion and lust when there should only be fear. It would seem the infamous monster is not as monstrous as he appears.
Winner of the 2006 RT Reviewer's Choice Award!
Rating: Contains graphic sexual content, adult language, and violence.

Customer review: "Gritty and graphic, I would recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of the post apocalyptic genre."
Welcome to the Arizona Reformed Theocracy, otherwise called The Zona. Here the Church rules with power absolute. The laws are simple: all sin is punished swiftly. Preachers enforce the Church's words like old West lawmen. But what happens when a Preacher refuses to kill? What happens when men of honor take a stand against their rulers?

Customer Review: "Informative! This brings to light the diverse issues that are facing higher education today."
What is the value of a college degree?
The four-year college experience is as American as apple pie. So is the belief that higher education offers a ticket to a better life. But with student-loan debt surpassing the $1 trillion mark and unemployment of college graduates at historic highs, people are beginning to question that value.
In College (Un)bound, Jeffrey J. Selingo, editor at large of the Chronicle of Higher Education, argues that America’s higher education system is broken. The great credential race has turned universities into big business and fostered an environment where middle-tier colleges can command elite university-level tuition while concealing staggeringly low graduation rates, churning out graduates with few of the skills needed for a rapidly evolving job market.
Selingo not only turns a critical eye on the current state of higher education but also predicts how technology will transform it for the better. Free massive online open courses (MOOCs) and hybrid classes, adaptive learning software, and the unbundling of traditional degree credits will increase access to high-quality education regardless of budget or location and tailor lesson plans to individual needs. One thing is certain—the Class of 2020 will have a radically different college experience than their parents.
Incisive, urgent, and controversial, College (Un)bound is a must-read for prospective students, parents, and anyone concerned with the future of American higher education.

Product Description
Customer review: "This book is beyond amazing! Not only is it a cute love story but also a story about friendship and family."
Mallory Dane has a great family (at least on the surface), is popular at school (as long as she doesn't make waves), and dates an amazing boyfriend, Todd (who happens to be completely made up). Boys - and sex - are something Mallory just can't deal with, so she created her "invisible guy" to avoid it all.
But when Liam Crawford comes along - a real guy, flesh and bones and strumming his guitar - Mallory starts questioning her fictional relationship. Is she really willing to give up Todd for Liam? And can she make amends for the lies she's told - even to her best friend, Tess?
What if your biggest, most embarrassing secret was broadcast to the whole world?
Letting go of her secret will be easier said than done, and Mallory will risk everything - her family, Tess, cheerleading, her reputation, and most of all, her heart.
