Book Description
As the leaves fall, an enemy rises. All is peaceful at West Side Sandwiches… until Zelda’s mother shows up, suitcase in hand, for a surprise visit. When an outing to Broadway goes up in flames, and a new threat bubbles up from the witches’ swimming pool, an old-fashioned seance seems like just the thing to settle the spirit world—but in magical Manhattan, nothing is ever that simple. Ghosts. Magic. Mothers. This time, it’s going to take more than spells and sandwiches to save the world.

Book Description
p.B. J. Whiting savors proverbial expressions and has devoted much of his lifetime to studying and collecting them; no one knows more about British and American proverbs than he. The present volume, based upon writings in British North America from the earliest settlements to approximately 1820, complements his and Archer Taylor's Dictionary of American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases, 1820-1880. It differs from that work and from other standard collections, however, in that its sources are primarily not "literary" but instead workaday writings - letters, diaries, histories, travel books, political pamphlets, and the like. The authors represent a wide cross-section of the populace, from scholars and statesmen to farmers, shopkeepers, sailors, and hunters. Mr. Whiting has combed all the obvious sources and hundreds of out-of-the-way publications of local journals and historical societies. This body of material, "because it covers territory that has not been extracted and compiled in a scholarly way before, can justly be said to be the most valuable of all those that Whiting has brought together," according to Albert B. Friedman. "What makes the work important is Whiting's authority: a proverb or proverbial phrase is what BJW thinks is a proverb or proverbial phrase. There is no objective operative definition of any value, no divining rod; his tact, 'feel, ' experience, determine what's the real thing and what is spurious."

Book Description
One night doesn’t seem to be enough… Dean has finally found a workplace where he’s welcomed with open arms. Starting fresh in a new city was the only downside, and he refused to become a burden to his new colleagues by accepting too many dinner invites. Oliver’s restaurant is finally making a profit, and his loss of social life is no concern for him. Anyway, an overweight workaholic is hardly considered a catch from what he’s been told. But when the new firefighter sends heated glances his way, he can’t help but react. One night won’t hurt. But one night becomes more, and Oliver and Dean become inseparable. Until Oliver’s restaurant is burnt down. Their relationship is tested to the limits during the investigation, but Oliver took a chance with Dean and he refuses to take it back. This is an MM romance, featuring a firefighter who wants to believe in love, a chef who learns that a work/life balance is essential, and the reminder that when someone finds “the one,” it doesn’t matter whether it was only supposed to be one night. Love is love.
