From USA Today bestselling author Molly O’Hare comes an enemies-to-lovers, older brother’s best friend, romantic comedy with a curvy, anti-social, supernatural-obsessed, all-year-round holiday-loving, secret romance author, and a hunky firefighter who is more than willing to be her new research partner. Olive’s content living her anti-social existence, letting the characters she writes about fulfill her wild side. She’s worked hard to achieve a zero-human interaction life and wants to keep it that way. Then her best friend and roommate announced she’s moving out, and her older brother was moving in. Now Olive has to deal with the guy that’s teased her their entire life. But when Hank finds out about her secret career, how could she turn down the offer for a hands-on research partner for her books? Hank’s had a thing for Olive for as long as he could remember. When he realized she needed a roommate, he jumped at the chance. Why wouldn’t he, when playing harmless pranks and teasing Olive, had always been his favorite pastime? One day when Hank let his curiosity get the better of him, he discovered Olive had a whole other side of her she kept hidden away. All Hank has to do is convince Olive life is a heck of a lot more fun when you add some fire to it.

From the author of In Farleigh Field... Molly Murphy Sullivan's husband Daniel, a police captain in turn-of-the-century New York City, is in a precarious position. The new police commissioner wants him off the force altogether. So when Daniel's offered an assignment from John Wilkie, head of the secret service, he's eager to accept. Molly can't draw any details of the assignment out of him, even where he'll be working. But when she spots him in San Francisco during a movie news segment, she starts to wonder if he's in even more danger than she had first believed. And then she receives a strange and cryptic letter from him, leading her to conclude that he wants her to join him in San Francisco. Molly knows that if Daniel's turning to her rather than John Wilkie or his contacts in the police force, something must have gone terribly wrong. What can she do for him that the police can't? Especially when she doesn't even know what his assignment is? Embarking on a cross-country journey with her young son, Molly can't fathom what's in store for her, but she knows it might be dangerous--in fact, it might put all of their lives at risk, in Rhys Bowen's Time of Fog and Fire.

Book Description
See the world through a photographer’s eyes Final Fire is a companion piece to Mitchell’s much-praised 2004 memoir, The Molly Fire, a finalist for both the Writers’ Trust Drainie-Taylor Biography Prize and the Governor General’s Award for Non-fiction, and a Globe and Mail Best Book of the Year. Nearly a half century ago, Mitchell abandoned a safe and secure academic career to become a “cowboy” with a camera and a keyboard. While he has always kept one foot planted firmly in the arts, as a working photographer his search for adventure took him through the Americas, into the High Arctic, across Europe, on to the Middle East, India, and the Far East. He photographed famous athletes, musicians, actors, politicians, revolutionaries, and more than a few criminals. The sum of these scary, strange, heartrending, and funny episodes is one man’s prescription for how to live in a bizarre and, best of all, never boring world. It is also a book about loss. Mitchell reflects on the invention of photography and its transformative effect on world culture and pays tribute to fellow photographers who led remarkable and frequently obsessive lives.
