Lab Girlby Hope Jahren

National Bestseller

A New York Times Notable Book

Geobiologist Hope Jahren has spent her life studying trees, flowers, seeds, and soil. Lab Girl is her revelatory treatise on plant life–but it is also a celebration of the lifelong curiosity, humility, and passion that drive every scientist. In these pages, Hope takes us back to her Minnesota childhood, where she spent hours in unfettered play in her father’s college laboratory. She tells us how she found a sanctuary in science, learning to perform lab work “with both the heart and the hands.” She introduces us to Bill, her brilliant, eccentric lab manager. And she extends the mantle of scientist to each one of her readers, inviting us to join her in observing and protecting our environment. Warm, luminous, compulsively readable, Lab Girl vividly demonstrates the mountains that we can move when love and work come together.

Dirty Deedsby Armand Rosamilia

I get paid to erase problems.

Did your extramarital affair produce an unwanted complication? Family problems? Just want to enjoy your midlife crisis by yourself?

That’s where I come in. For a fee I’ll take care of it. A big fee.

Only, I’m not going to do what you think. I’m not going to save you from them, I’m going to save them from you.

His Sexy Smile (The Montgomery Boys Book 5)by Jessica Mills

Rodeo runs in my blood.

The ranch my family owns can stay with my brothers.

I don’t belong in a laidback life. I’m interested in the thrill of the win.

Somewhere along the way, I ran into a beautiful girl with a dark past.

Love wasn’t something I’d ever been interested in, but she’s changing that fast.

I can’t get enough of her, and when things get a little too deep, I’m ready to hit the road and find another rodeo to take my mind off of her.

But she ain’t having it. Me or my shit.

Good thing I woke up to what matters most–her.

I’m willing to go the extra lap to get back into her good graces.

Between that and my sexy smile, this girl doesn’t stand a chance.
