The Dominant Blonde

Blond and a size ten for the first time in her life, Lydia may actually have gotten this love thing right this time. Or not. After a run of bad career and dating decisions, Lydia Gold is ready for a vacation from her life. So what if the Caribbean resort’s a little shabby and the boyfriend’s not the lover of her dreams. This time around, Lydia’s experiencing what it’s like to have someone madly in love with her. But when Abe doesn’t return from a scuba dive, Lydia discovers some decidedly unsavory facts. Abe has embezzled three million dollars of her family’s money. And he may not be as dead as she’s beginning to wish he were. Lydia’s best chance for finding her missing boyfriend is Liam MacNally, a rugged, sexy former NYPD search and rescue diver and reluctant romantic. Liam wants nothing more than to sit on the beach with a Hemingway novel in one hand and a beer in the other. But sometimes it takes a little danger to bring you to your senses…
.

Does She or Doesn’t She?

Passion. The kind of tear your clothes off, scream your lungs out, crash into the furniture passion that changes lives.

It’s what Delilah wants. It’s what she craves. It’s what she fantasizes about whenever her disinterested husband’s not around. Okay, so it occasionally makes her late for the school run and distracts her from the fact there’s no food in the fridge, but an elaborate fantasy life is a basic requirement for a fledgling soap opera writer.

Lately, though, the oddest things have been happening in Delilah’s real life. First, she discovers a couple of skeletons rattling around in her husband’s closet. Then, she learns that the insolently sexy plumber who’s been fixing her pipes and starring in her daydreams is really an undercover FBI agent. And now all the clues seem to point to the conclusion that she’s the only person in New York City not carrying on a torrid affair. Which she intends to do something about. Or does she?

Because there’s nothing more dangerous than acting on your secret desire.

On the Couch

After going for more than a year without a date a record in New York City Marlowe Riddle has finally met a broodingly sexy, sharply intelligent man who is clearly interested in making more than polite conversation. The only problem: Joseph Kain is an NYPD detective clearly under the mistaken impression that Marlowe is a call girl. But while Marlowe does take money for spending time with strangers in her expensive Upper West Side apartment, she’s a psychologist not Manhattan’s answer to the Mayflower Madam! A fact she has no intention of telling Joe…
at least not until she finishes her research project on the ‘Behavioral Effects of Disguising Identity.’ But Marlowe’s not the only one trying to secretively gain information…
and it’s becoming increasingly unclear who is seducing whom. Because sometimes the only way to learn what a man really wants…
is to get him On the Couch.

Sex as a Second Language

A teacher of English as a second language, forty year old Katherine Miner is an expert on idiomatic phrases and subtle verbal cues. When it comes to the opposite sex, however, she’s baffled enough to choose early retirement from the dating game. It’s not that she hates men, it’s just that she doesn’t trust them. After all, her soon to be ex husband has dropped all contact with their son, and her own father disappeared from her life thirty years ago. And then Kat meets Magnus Grimmson, a tall, good looking, tongue tied Icelander in the front row of her class. Magnus doesn’t appear to pose any threat in fact, he seems to understand less about women than Kat does about men. But just when Kat considers risking a little intimacy, her father reappears in her life, causing unexpected complications. Emotionally torn, Kat is left to question whom she can trust and to realize that she still has a lot to learn about men and the kind of communication they don’t teach in school.

Flirting in Cars

From Alisa Kwitney, the acclaimed author of Sex as a Second Language and The Dominant Blonde, comes a witty, romantic, and compassionate new novel about an urban working mom who leaves the city only to find her talents are no match for country life. An accomplished journalist, Zo Goren can’t drive and she doesn’t cook. But that’s never been a problem in Manhattan, where the streets are filled with taxis and takeout restaurants, and a busy single mother can find everything she needs right at her fingertips. In fact, Zo can’t imagine living or working anyplace else. But when Zo ‘s daughter is diagnosed with dyslexia, she decides to make the ultimate sacrifice, moving two hours from Manhattan in order to enroll Maya in an excellent school for children with learning differences. Stranded in a rural paradise, Zo must grapple with isolation, coyote howls, and the lack of good delivery services. But when she decides to overcome her fear of driving and take lessons, she meets Mack, an unnervingly attractive townie, back from the war in Iraq and trying to adjust to civilian life. With a budding new romance and a reporting gig for the local paper, Zo just might survive in the wilderness of small town America after all. One of today’s best breakout authors, who has been called ‘witty, charming, funny, and real’ by Carly Phillips, Alisa Kwitney creates authentic characters that women love to read about and talk about. Zo Goren will have them rooting for her all the way.
