Book Description
London aristocrat Mia Clementine does gorgeous for a living. Her cousin's etiquette firm, The Inner Gentleman, works small miracles on rough-around-the-edges superstars, and Mia is their most sought-after stylist. But selfish, overpaid soccer player Josh Watkins? He's in a league of his own. And thanks to her rep, his team wants Mia to wave her magic wand and turn their celebrated player—and we do mean player—into a changed man before his next charity gig. That means: * No more fighting. * No more swearing. * No more "allegedly" shagging a page-three girl at a casino restaurant. But just when Mia thinks Josh is kicking his old habits, he turns the game around. Suddenly, Mia's looking for meaning in her society-page existence. Sure, she's an expert in pushing the posh life, but maybe it's time to not play by the rules.…

Book Description
I thought I knew everything about Gwen Matson. We've been best friends since sophomore year at Analy High. I know her to be smart and confident with a retro style that would give Jackie O a run for her money—albeit a graceful, sweat-free run in kitten heels. Not once did she ever display a rabid need to record every detail of her existence. But never before had she gone on a weekend road trip with her amazing boyfriend, Coop…and his evil, yoga-toned best friend, Devil Blonde Dannika. Now she's writing to me like mad. Not that I'm complaining. I'm in gay Paris (good), meeting my future in-laws (bad), so her tireless scribbling is keeping us both sane. Usually, a well-thought-out What Would Jackie Do? helps Gwen pull it together. But this crisis is beyond help. I know Gwen and Coop are meant to be, but can their love withstand Gwen's psycho jealousy and Dannika's twisted sabotage?

Book Description
From gentleman callers to big men on campus, from Coke dates to "parking," From Front Porch to Back Seat is the vivid history of dating in America. In chronicling a dramatic shift in patterns of courtship between the 1920s and the 1960s, Beth Bailey offers a provocative view of how we sought out mates-and of what accounted for our behavior. More than a quarter-century has passed since the dating system Bailey describes here lost its coherence and dominance. Yet the legacy of the system remains a strong part of our culture's attempt to define female and male roles alike.

Book Description
Before cable television and mega-contracts, professional jocks' lives were little different from those of the fans in the stands. Back then, the game they played was much simpler but far rougher than anything seen today. Ever cheering from the sidelines, Perian Conerly, wife of the New York Giants’ star quarterback Charlie Conerly, and the first female sportswriter in the National Sportswriters’ Association, wrote this lighthearted account of pro football during its heyday (1948–1961). Her husband led the Giants for fourteen seasons. As she describes the glory games, the players, and life on the road, she delivers from the inside the kind of personal reportage that fans adore. Her story begins with the hilarious misadventures of her wedding day in Clarksdale, Mississippi, “the Golden Buckle on the Cotton Belt.” It ends thirteen years later with Charlie's retirement at the age of forty. In between, there are vignettes of the closely knit cadre of Giants' wives, most of whom resided in the same Bronx hotel near Yankee Stadium. She also reports locker-room gossip and recounts amusing pro-ball anecdotes of a time before TV made athletes' images familiar in all households. Although their deeds on the gridiron were notable, their faces were not. Back then, players were so anonymous in public that many times they fell prey to imitators who stole their identities to mooch drinks and dinners from unsuspecting fans only for the thrill of passing as “somebody.” Along with her scoop reports on winning games, Mrs. Conerly paints an endearing portrait of her famous husband, an Ole Miss legend who, after retirement, was hired as the first Marlboro Man. Though her style is casual, she moves the reader painlessly through some of the finer points of the game. The Washington Evening Star touted her for “having written the best book on pro football in a long time.” The New York Times, for which Mrs. Conerly wrote occasional sports columns, said “Backseat Quarterback is exactly the kind of book that one would expect Perian Conerly to write. Its pages shine with her charm, gaiety, wit, intelligence, and sparkle.” Newsweek praised its “comic insight.” This reissue of a favorite book of 1963 has a foreword by the Conerlys' friend and teammate Frank Gifford.

Book Description
The new evidence in this book is amazing and changes everything. Applying the skills he has honed as a court consultant for the past two decades, Author Brian Kelleher discovered that the government experts and their critics alike, completely overlooked the most important evidence in the case: the "visual shot identifiers" in the six motion pictures that were taken as the shots rang out. With one startling revelation after another, Kelleher presents irrefutable scientific/photographic proof showing exactly when the shots were fired, where they came from and which bullets hit whom. He then shows how all the wound ballistics evidence and eyewitness testimony ties in. Finally, we now know what really happened . . . and where to find the "Lost Bullet."
