Juntos hasta la medianoche
by Deborah HerediaLo que pasó aquella tarde determinó el destino de ambos, pero ¿y si tuvieran una oportunidad para recuperar su vida en común? Noel y Leo son mejores amigos. No, aún más. Son almas gemelas. Se conocen desde la infancia, lo saben todo el uno del otro y no imaginan una vida en la que no estén unidos. Por eso la noche en la que discuten ninguno de los dos puede imaginar que será la última que pasarán juntos. A la mañana siguiente el mundo ha cambiado. El universo los ha separado. Leo no existe en el mundo de Noel y Noel es solo una fantasía en el de Leo. Y lo que es más, solo ellos recuerdan lo que pasó: las noches de risas en el jardín, las cenas improvisadas, los ensayos y el festival. Sobre todo el festival. Noel, que siempre se ha mostrado esquivo con Leo, se cree culpable por no haber entendido que lo que siente por él es algo más que una simple amistad. Leo, enamorado de Noel desde siempre, no sabe qué hacer: ahora que nadie lo recuerda, no sabe si estar a su lado es más doloroso que haberlo perdido para siempre. Una vertiginosa carrera en contra del tiempo en la que tratarán de no olvidarse el uno del otro antes de que el reloj marque la medianoche y todo vuelva a comenzar.
Juno's Daughters
by Lise SaffranLove takes center stage when a single mother and her teenage daughters play Juno, Iris and Ceres in a summer production of The Tempest. Jenny Alexander has sought refuge from a troubled past on a tiny, verdant island, off the coast of Washington state. Surrounded by the cold water of the Puget Sound, she does her best to raise her girls, innocent Frankie, and thrill-seeking Lilly, in a tight-knit community of eccentrics and dreamers. The island bursts open each summer with the arrival of actors leading the annual Shakespeare production. A handsome thespian from New York reawakens Jenny to long-buried desires. As the intensity of rehearsals builds toward the live run of The Tempest, a potent mixture of actors, islanders and tourists, besotted by verse and swept up in the romance of the theater, spills the enchantment of the play into the lives of the players. When Jenny finds her daughters caught up in a "brave new world" of love and heartbreak, she is ultimately thrust into a command performance that will resonate in all their lives. .

Junk (Sexy Stranger Standalones #1)
by DR LoveThe old abandoned airplane hangar at the end of town near my parents' farm has a new owner. He's a big guy. Tall, blond, light blue eyes, almost grey, rimmed by black; and the most muscular tanned body I've seen up close without a shirt. Ran into him when I was delivering groceries to my parents one day. What could a man like him want with a huge hangar like that one? My parents said he's remodeling it into some kind of factory. But I'm suspecting something else. Maybe I've read too many mystery novels and watched too many spy films, but this man is not what my parents think he is. I know because when I accidentally ran into him coming out of the hangar, with his shirt off, dripping in sweat and looking like a giant Adonis in the sunlight, I caught a glimpse of what was in the hangar, and it wasn't machinery. It was something else. Parts, even whole ones. Planes, ships, and even rockets. A sea of old junk. He drives a new Bentley, wears a Cartier on his wrist, and seems to have an European accent. What was a man like him doing with a hangar full of junk, near my parents' house, I don't know. But I'm about to find out. Because not only did I see old planes, ships, and rockets; I saw a few tanks, cannons, and even missiles. Having missiles like that near my parents is too close for comfort, and I plan on getting close to Mr. Junk to find out. JUNK is a Romantic Comedy Mystery that is part of the Author A Parody TV Series World
