Man Cave
Vanessa Vale
Life's not simple. Neither is love. I'm twenty-four, and ahem... inexperienced. When a blind date doesn't change that status, Theo volunteers for the task. Who's Theo? Just the guy I've been crushing on for six months. Yeah, him. Tall, broad and handsome and gah, now he's even got a beard! He's diligent. Very focused. Skilled. And impossible not to fall for. Except he's only up for a fun time. A wild romp or two. No way would he have any romantic interest in someone like me. Why would he? He's an intense, brooding doctor—and, oh yeah, a billionaire—and I'm a goofy first grade teacher barely making ends meet. When my goal changes from man-made O's to the man himself, I know I'm in trouble. Because he's no longer a crush, but someone I might actually love. With all the books in the On A Manhunt series, it's always open season on men.

Kick the Drink Easily!
Jason Vale
There is no such thing as an alcoholic and there is no such disease as alcoholism! (as society understands it). Whether you agree with this statement or not, one thing is for sure, you will never see alcohol in the same light ever again after reading this book. Jason Vale takes an honest and hard hitting look at people’s conceptions of our most widely consumed drug. Jason’s major argument is there is no such thing as an ‘alcoholic’ and that we are conditioned to accept alcohol as a ‘normal’ substance in today’s society despite the fact that it is the major cause of many of today’s social problems and a wide range of health issues.
