Book Description
Why call this collection of two novellas that are connected by one secondary character, The Billionaire's Bagpipes? Because the connection is Will Power, a larger-than-life billionaire, whose ability to fade into the background is as unlikely as bagpipes being played in a library going unnoticed. So, being cast as a secondary character in not one, but two other heroes' stories, forced Will to blow his bagpipes and demand his own story. This boxset contains the two romantic comedy novellas that introduce the grumpy, sleep-deprived Will Power before he meets his sunshine-y foil, Virginia in The Billionaire's Shrubbery. The Billionaire's Bagpipes contains: Her Seasoned Delivery When Magdalena's so-called geriatric, IVF pregnancy forces her to bedrest, Stirling, a man forced into early retirement from his executive chef position, delivers the food that sates Mags's craving. This man cook with spice—even in the kitchen! Her Best Bet When Catherine, a world-renowned sculptor who creates controversial art pieces, bets Eric, the engineer she's forced to report to on her installation in the Will Power & Bros. company's lobby, that she's better at math than he is, he's convinced he'll win. Turns out, some bets are worth losing. Her Seasoned Delivery was originally published in the Eat Your Heart Out 2 charity anthology (2022). Her Best Bet was originally published as The Billionaire's Brouhaha in Resolve: A New Year's Anthology for Choice (2023).

Book Description
Often, the main difference between a work-in-progress and a finished manuscript is the tenacity of the writer. You can see your idea play out inside your head in beautifully composed and communicated scenes. Then you start to write, but the words feel clunky. Your critical inner voice tells you your writing is not as good as it should be. You start to self-sabotage. You convince yourself that you don’t have enough time to sit down and do the work anyway. And your dream of writing this book remains as just a beautiful idea. With practical and proven exercises, author and coach Donna Barker connects behavioral science to the habits and mindsets that successful authors use to finish their first, second, and final drafts. Whether you're writing your first book or your fiftieth, Scrappy Rough Draft has the tools you need to build self-confidence, develop a writing habit that works for you, and identify the kinds of people you need in your writing community to help you get your story out of your head and onto the page.

Book Description
In All I Want Is Loving You: Popular Female Singers of the 1950s, author Steve Bergsman focuses on the white, female artists of the 1950s, a time that predated the chart-topping girl groups of the early 1960s. These popular performers, many of whom graduated out of the big bands of the 1940s, impacted popular music in a huge way. As the last bastion of traditional pop and the last sirens of swing, they undeniably shined in the spotlight. Yet these singers’ fame dimmed relatively quickly with the advent of rock ’n’ roll. A fortunate few, like Doris Day, Patti Page, Peggy Lee, and Debbie Reynolds, experienced some of their biggest hits in the late 1950s, and Eydie Gormé broke out in the 1960s. The luckiest, including Dinah Shore and Rosemary Clooney, ventured to television with varying degrees of success. Others would become major attractions at nightclubs in Las Vegas or, like Teresa Brewer, shift into the jazz world. Though the moment did not last, these performers were best-selling singers, darlings of the disk jockeys, and the frenetic heartbeat of fan clubs during their heyday. In a companion volume, Bergsman has written the history of African American women singers of the same era. These Black musicians transitioned more easily as a new form of music, rock ’n’ roll, skyrocketed in popularity. In both books, Bergsman reintroduces readers to these talented singers, offering a thorough look at their work and turning up the volume on their legacy.
