DESCRIPTION:
He’ll wipe out my debt if I play house with him? Seriously?
The hottest guy I’ve seen in forever is giving me an offer I can’t refuse.
No really, I can’t refuse it because I slammed my Kia into his Lamborghini and now I’m in deep sh*t.
Apparently, his mother is on his back about settling down, and he thinks I’m just the girl for the job.
I can’t say I’m not intrigued about how far this might go.
He’s got another think coming if he thinks I’m sleeping with him. I’m not that type of girl.
Not yet at least.
Unfortunately for me, he’s president of the alphahole billionaire club.
I mean, he would be if there was one.
It’s just a few months, and besides, I could use a break from my grocery-store job to taste the life of the rich and famous.
Even though he’s the worst thing that ever happened to me, he’s growing on me–fast.
So I’ll be his fake fiancée and give him a run for his money.
This boy’s going to pay up, hot stuff.
Every good girl deserves a bad boy. ~ Weston

DESCRIPTION:
A duke’s daughter must be prepared for whatever life–and love–throws her way…
Lady Cassandra Fallon is finally ready to take control of her life and join her late mother’s investigative society. She’s more than confident she can do the job–even when her first case involves a potentially deadly scandal. What she’s not quite prepared for is her brother’s attractive (and increasingly distracting) friend acting as her self-appointed bodyguard…
When Lord Luke promised his best friend he’d keep an eye on Cassie, he meant it. But the brazen and entirely too alluring woman she’s become is a far cry from the mischievous, freckled girl she used to be. Luke knows a lowly viscount has no business longing for (or touching) a duke’s daughter. But against all reason…he does…
She craves independence. He only craves her. An epic battle of the sexes is at hand. But will love be enough to get them to happily ever after? Cassie and Luke will soon find out…

Being Authentic: A Memoirby Morhaf Al Achkar
Available through March 14 at
Deal availability may change without notice! Prices may vary from store to store. Due to international copyright, availability and pricing may vary outside of the US.
DESCRIPTION:
⚠ Our existence is fragile. I learned that in many intricate ways, so I do not take today for granted. I do not know what tomorrow will bring. I do not even know if tomorrow will come. ⚠
◆ On the eve of Thanksgiving 2016, I received the diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer. Next to dying, I fear the spread of cancer to my brain and losing my ability to think, speak, or write. This loss would be devastating to me. ◆
- The fragility of our life made me want to be authentic. Therefore, I am writing this memoir to be authentic–we become our true selves when we author who we are.
- I am afraid of being forgotten. Death does frighten me. But more than dying, I am scared of having no one remember me or, even worse, of being recognized differently from who I was. At the same time, I have never thought that I was entitled to ask others not to forget me. But, not to be forgotten is precisely what I yearn for. ★
- While I am writing for the other, I am simultaneously writing for myself. I am one of the readers and will test the subject as it gets written. My criteria are stricter. I want to say, “This is my narrative.”
♥ I need to be able to say, “This is my narrative.” ♥
