Zombie-in-Chief: A Novel Take on a Brain-Dead Election
by Scott KenemoreBestselling author Scott Kenemore is back with a hilarious, over-the-top, and bloodthirsty send-up of the 2016 political season. In the tradition of Joe Klein's Primary Colors and Richard Condon's The Manchurian Candidate, Zombie-in-Chief: Eater of the Free World is a compelling and dramatic story with characters and events that may resemble familiar, real-life elections a little too closely! After all, who better to perform an autopsy of the American political system than an expert on the undead? When a tycoon and reality TV star improbably wins his party's nomination for the presidency, pundits and analysts are as baffled as they are certain that he will never win the general election. What can a man who already lives at the top of a golden skyscraper with a supermodel wife still want? Absent entirely from their prognostications is the possibility that it could be to gorge upon the brains of the living! That he dreams of building a border wall to better keep delicious humans in! That he seeks to make American great again. . . for zombies! Only an unlikely journalistic partnership between a reporter fresh from J-school and a blogger who is derided and dismissed as "fake news" seems to have any chance of derailing the tycoon's plans and exposing him as a member of the walking dead. Yet a terrifying question still remains. . . In a nation divided along political lines as never before, will such a revelation change anything? Or will a candidate revealed to be a proud "Zombie American" simply be another stepping stone on a historic (and not-so-above-board) journey to the presidency?

When a prestigious wine festival announces it&’s coming to town, it kicks off a battle royale among local vineyards vying for the opportunity to host it. Zoe&’s in it to win it—being chosen would put Bluebell Vineyards on the map, and she could stick it to the vineyard next door, run by her ex–best friend (now enemy), Rachel. But when Zoe&’s father is called home to Italy to care for his sick mother, Bluebell is left without a vintner. Dejected, Zoe impulsively agrees to a blindfolded threesome with a friend, and excitingly, a stranger. But once the blindfolds come off, Zoe realizes the hot butch that rocked her world isn&’t a stranger at all. It&’s Laine Woods—Zoe&’s first crush, Rachel&’s big sister, and, Zoe is horrified to discover, the Napa-trained vintner Zoe&’s dad just hired as his replacement. While they try to ignore their sizzling chemistry, Laine&’s snobbery and Zoe&’s pride collide at every step, creating a generous pour of professional—and sexual—tension. Collaborating is the only way to win the festival, but when that means late nights under the stars and letting go of the past, Zoe must be careful—or Laine might crush her heart for good.Perfect for fans of romance novels who enjoy their smut wrapped in wit and wine, Zoe Brennan, First Crush delivers everything lesbian romance readers crave - from deliciously crafted enemies to lovers tension to the cozy comfort of small town romance charm.

Zo
by Murray PuraAndrew Chornavka tomó la capucha trapense y desapareció del siglo XXI para olvidar el siglo anterior. Sin embargo, incluso en el monasterio aislado de América, el pasado lo encuentra. Una delegación del Vaticano llega con preguntas sobre su hermana menor, Zoya, quien, para sorpresa de Andrew, es candidata a la santidad. Renuente, hostil, deseando solo que lo dejen solo con su hato lechero, sus jardines y sus oraciones, Andrew eventualmente comienza a hablar. La charla lo lleva a donde no quiere ir, revive lo que esperaba que estuviera muerto y enterrado, y hace real lo que hace mucho tiempo se había perdido. Él sabe que lo que tiene que contar no es más que una historia sobre una familia que trató de permanecer unida y mantener el amor fuerte, cuando todo en la tierra trató de destrozar ese amor. Sin embargo, también sabe que el arzobispo quiere una historia sobre un ángel que caminó con Dios. Pero Andrew no experimentó un mundo de ángeles, milagros y cuentos de hadas. Y tampoco su hermana Zo.
