Book Description
Why can no one believe Holly and Brett are content with their single lives? Certainly not their interfering parents who decide to take action. The 'Opposites Attract' dating agency has the theory if normal matchmaking hasn't worked they'll turn it upside down. The uptight British policewoman and the laid-back Southern writer are complete opposites and so make the perfect mismatch. A weekend in Paris turns magical but secrets, lies and sheer stubbornness threaten this romance before it hardly gets off the ground. This pair will fight love all the way and it's a question of who'll give in first.

Book Description
"Opposites Attract," is a culmination of the influence that the writers and animators of my childhood had upon me. It is also special as it was written during a time of grieving as my grandmother lost her battle with breast cancer. My hope is that families and readers will enjoy my take on the storylines that inspired me as a child. I would love to provide a similar experience in making emotional connections with the characters and be able to inspire other young minds as my role models inspired me to create this book.

Book two in the Ready or Not series Resisting the sexy bad boy next door should be easy...shouldn't it? Tabby has spent her life following the rules and creating an orderly, regimented life. Nothing is out of place, from her landscaping, to her business, to her nonexistent love life. All that changes, however, when a tattoo-covered, motorcycle-riding bad boy moves in next door and throws her perfectly ordered life into chaos. Gray has always been wild, a guy who values his freedom above all else. It's left him with a string of one-night stands and no intention of ever getting tied down. But as soon as he meets his nerdy and uptight neighbor, he can't deny how badly he wants to see her come undone. He doesn't want forever, but a few nights can't hurt. The more time they spend together, the more the sizzling attraction between them grows. Even as they remind themselves it can't go anywhere, both Tabby and Gray find themselves wondering...what if? Will they give up and go back to their own lonely lives, or will they risk it all and realize there's a reason why opposites attract?

Book Description
Studying chess is about finding patterns and learning from examples that illustrate those patterns best. This e-book focuses on patterns based on material left on the board - bishops of opposite color and rooks. It explains the ideas of bishop endgames alone, and then shows how the strategy changes when rooks are also present on the board. The level of a reader who could benefit from this book the most is between 1600 and 2200 ELO. However other chess players should also be able to learn from it because this topic is not often discussed in chess literature, yet can improvement in playing such simplified positions can dramatically increase one's chess strength. The format was specifically designed for e-readers. Most chapters have examples from practical games of chess champions of the past and present, such as Botvinnik, Kasparov, and Carlsen, followed by puzzles for the reader to solve. That should reinforce newly learned concepts and help get a better sense of the combination of pieces (bishops and rooks) discussed throughout the book. There are also questions for the reader to answer at the key moments of the games. To see solutions for puzzles and questions - just go to the next page. Instructive mistakes by lower rated players are also demonstrated throughout the chapters.
