Book Description
A teenage girl plots her mother’s murder with a deranged online lover in this true-crime classic by the New York Times bestselling true crime author. Jeanne Dominico was a hard-working single mother. Nicole, her fourteen-year-old daughter, was on the honor roll—and head over heels in love with an older boy she’d met through the Internet. Once the lovers met in person, Jeanne sensed trouble. If only she’d known that the life in danger was her own. With a history of psychological trouble and family misfortune, Billy Sullivan demanded obsessive and controlling power over Nicole. The twisted Romeo and Juliet responded to Jeanne’s motherly concern with brutal fury—her fiancé discovered Jeanne’s beaten, barely recognizable body on the kitchen floor. Nicole’s stunning confession and guilty plea led to Billy’s sensational trial, where a sordid tale of love, loss, betrayal, and murder finally took a cold-blooded killer offline—and behind bars. Includes sixteen pages of shocking photos “Phelps is one of America’s finest true-crime authors.” —Vincent Bugliosi “Phelps is the Harlan Coben of real-life thrillers.” —Allison Brennan

Book Description
A runaway bride and a playboy. One bedroom in a remote cabin. A spark neither of them have felt before. After almost hooking up with a gorgeous blonde stranger as a misguided way of dealing with his problems, Asher Carlson needs to escape. Discovering he has inherited a remote mountain cabin provides the perfect solution. The last thing he expects is for a runaway bride—that same beautiful blonde woman—to jump in the cab of his truck and demand to go wherever he is going. Alone together with her almost hookup in a cabin with only one bed, Noa Briggs knows she can't ignore the mess she left behind when she left her best friend at the altar. But she doesn't love her intended groom the way you are supposed to love the man you marry. The spark she feels for the stranger who rescued her is stronger than anything she ever hoped to have in her marriage, and how sad is that? Especially when Asher gives off vibes that while their chemistry is incredible, it's not going to be forever. A playboy who has actively avoided relationships, he's the perfect rebound. Their chemistry is undeniable, and they don't hold themselves back...until Noa catches the exact kind of feelings Asher has made it clear he will never have for her. For the second time in mere weeks, she has no choice but to run away from a man who can't give her what she needs. And this time, it hurts so much more than she ever imagined.

Book Description
Everyone knows the only thing more painful than relationships is not having them--or is it the other way around? Whatever, says author and cartoonist Nick Galifianakis. In his first book, If You Loved Me, You'd Think This Was Cute: Uncomfortably True Cartoons About You, he makes the case that either way, the only recourse is to embrace our frailties and laugh. Taken from Carolyn Hax's nationally syndicated advice column, this compilation spins the pain of dating, mothers-in-law, "beneficial" friends and more into ... the pain of self-recognition. The intricately drawn pen-and-ink panels and pointed captions explore some of life's most uncomfortable truths, exposing the humanity in our mistakes, the underbelly of our triumphs and the sheer heroism of trying and trying again. Throughout this character study of men and women (and the dogs who love them), Galifianakis mines our hopes and insecurities for a unifying truth: If we can't laugh at ourselves, he'll do it for us. "Nick snuck me into my first comedy club when I was only a back-acned teenager. The back acne went away but the comedy stuck. I know that last sentence sounds like a lyric from a Joan Baez song, but trust me, it's original." --Zach Galifianakis, from the foreword "Nick's cartoons are funny, witty, and smart. But what makes them so special are how universal and true they are, making the laughs they bring all the more poignant. Relationships, in all their glory, have never been captured quite so succinctly and with such charm." --Amy B. Harris, writer/producer for Sex and the City "Nick Galifianakis understands relationships unbelievably well, for a guy. My guess is he actually menstruates." --Gene Weingarten, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, Washington Post humor columnist
