Book Description
A hilarious, high-stakes adventure involving crooked casino boats, floating fish, toxic beaches, and one kid determined to get justice. This is Carl Hiaasen's Florida—where the creatures are wild and the people are wilder! You know it's going to be a rough summer when you spend Father's Day visiting your dad in the local lockup. Noah's dad is sure that the owner of the Coral Queen casino boat is flushing raw sewage into the harbor–which has made taking a dip at the local beach like swimming in a toilet. He can't prove it though, and so he decides that sinking the boat will make an effective statement. Right. The boat is pumped out and back in business within days and Noah's dad is stuck in the clink. Now Noah is determined to succeed where his dad failed. He will prove that the Coral Queen is dumping illegally . . . somehow. His allies may not add up to much–his sister Abbey, an unreformed childhood biter; Lice Peeking, a greedy sot with poor hygiene; Shelly, a bartender and a woman scorned; and a mysterious pirate–but Noah's got a plan to flush this crook out into the open. A plan that should sink the crooked little casino, once and for all.

Book Description
Can a gentle robot win the fight for humanity's last hope? Before the Robot Uprising, Block the CleanerBot dutifully followed his programming as part of a hotel cleaning crew. Now in the aftermath of the AI Apocalypse that annihilated the world, he tries to simply do his job, avoiding the dangerous SoldierBots who wage war on the last human survivors. But when Block finds a mysterious human infant, he's compelled to care for the girl and travel across the metal infested wastelands of America to a safe haven 700 miles away. Without proper food and care, the baby could die before he reaches safety. When he encounters Nova--a surly soldier who becomes an unlikely ally--they must tackle the biggest challenge of their lives. Together they face mortal danger from bands of scavengers, militaristic SoldierBots, Combat Mechs, and a cyborg Bounty Hunter that will stop at nothing to find Block and the child--an infant who might hold the key to humanity's future.

Book Description
Clare Boothe Luce: American Renaissance Woman is a concise and highly readable political biography that examines the life of one of the most accomplished American women of the 20th century. Wife and mother, author, editor, playwright, political activist, war journalist, Congresswoman, ambassador, pundit, and feminist—Luce did it all. Carefully placing Luce in a series of shifting historical contexts, this book offers the reader an insight into mid-century American political, cultural, gender, and foreign relations history. Eleven primary sources follow the text, including excerpts from Luce’s diary, letters, speeches, and published works, as well as a TV talk-show appearance and a critic’s diary entry describing an evening with her, helping readers to understand her fascinating life. Together, the narrative and documents afford readers a brief yet in-depth look at Luce with all her complications: glamorous intellectual, acid-tongued diplomat, and feminist conservative, she was a deeply flawed high-achiever who repeatedly challenged the entrenched sexism of her age to become a significant actor in the rise of the “American Century.” Addressing the neglect suffered by women in foreign relations history, this will be of interest to students and scholars of US foreign relations, 20th-century US history, and US women’s history.

Tristan follows his heart and pursues her, but Coral doesn't trust anything - especially her own heart. How can she let him in after everything that has happened? Her life is her own, yet it's on shaky ground, easily jarred by fear, love and the never ending pull of destiny. Fate, it seems will help Tristan along the way and put him in Coral's path when she least expects it, and when she needs him more than she knows.

Fallen For Him (Book One) Life has seldom been kind to Coral Stevens. Yet after years of hard work, therapy and friends, she is standing on her own two feet, somewhat comfortable and in control of her own destiny...Or so she thinks. When her boss and good friend of fifteen years chooses to sell the company, it sets Coral's small world spinning, shattering her carefully constructed routine - and places her in the sights of business mogul Tristan Freeman, a man too handsome for his own good...And her new boss. But with the ghosts of the past still haunting her, can Coral finally exorcise these demons, face her darkest fears and allow the irresistible Tristan into her heart? Freed By Him (Book Two) When the past felt too big to bear, Coral Stevens walked away from the burgeoning love between her and Tristan Freeman, handsome mogul - and her new boss. Heartbroken, yet resolute, she feels she has made the right choice...too bad Tristan doesn't. Trusting him may be the hardest thing that Coral has ever done, yet the love that has grown between them cannot be denied - nor can the flammable passion that explodes whenever they touch. Then just when Coral thinks that things can't get any better, danger weaves its way around them...With her happiness and their very lives on the line, how far can she go to protect the one she loves? Forever With Him (Book Three) Coral Stevens had no idea that meeting Tristan Freeman would lead her to challenge every aspect of her life - Including her own mortality. As she begins to recover from her ordeal, she must learn to let go of her need to control, and allow Tristan to take care of her, for he is the one that managed to break down her walls, whilst patiently wearing down the barriers she threw between them - until Coral's heart was firmly caught in his grasp. Now together they must prove to each other, no matter how hard it gets, that they have become intrinsically woven into the web of each other's lives - Forever. Or will fate take over again and play a hand neither one of them can see? Reviews For Darkest Fears Trilogy "I cannot rave about this trilogy enough! It sizzles with longing, intensity and love.
