Book Description
[Book 3 in the "Year of the Chick" series] For many people, Paris is the city of love. Most of those people are tourists. This turns out to be one of Romi Narindra's first realizations, when she ditches her corporate job and moves to Paris for a year to write a book. It's a year that will shatter illusions, assert independence, and maybe even leave some room for a love affair or two. All the while, the past comes swirling back like a ghost with unfinished business, which raises important questions about hope and second chances. Some things last forever, some things will never be, but one thing's for sure: love in the modern world is not a fairy tale. Oh well, fairy tales were never all that interesting anyway... ------------------------ LENGTH: 74,000 words or approximately 280 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains occasional profanities and mild sexual references (Paris,travel,Europe,chicklit,love,romance,romantic comedy,funny,humor,humour,long distance,dating,relationships)

Book Description
[NOTE: each novel in the boxed set is about 74,000 words for a total of approximately 850 printed pages] This three-book romantic comedy series is all about starting from nowhere (no dating skills, no passion for a corporate job, low self-esteem), and undergoing a big transformation. The years go on, the landscapes change, and all along our heroine genuinely grows, as she moves past failures, achieves personal goals, becomes a better friend, and even gets the chance to fall in love. More specifically, there's Internet romance (or obsession? Fine line...), there's a meeting with the right guy at the wrong time, there's long-distance romance turmoil, and there's a life-changing journey to a totally different place. The stories are told in a bold narrative with punchy dialogue, to give this series a little more edge than your typical chicklit books. Throughout the series there's also an underlying tension caused by culture clash, when a strict Indian background brings up totally unpleasant scenarios (pressure to get married, pressure to get an ARRANGED marriage...you get the drift). ---------------------------------- LENGTH: each romantic comedy is a full-length novel of about 74,000 words (or between 280-285 printed pages each) DISCLAIMER: the books contain occasional profanities and mild sexual references

Sometimes you get a second chance at a first impression Mary Trace is bright, bubbly and back in the dating pool in her midthirties. All of her closest friends are in love, and she refuses to miss out on romance. So when a regular customer at her trendy Brooklyn boutique wants to set Mary up on a blind date with her son, she gives a hesitant yes. John Modesto-Whitford is gorgeous and well-groomed, so maybe dinner won’t be a total bust—until he drops a less-than-flattering comment about Mary’s age.

When their pretense turns to real friendship—and some surprisingly hot chemistry—can these two stubborn individuals see past their rocky start to a rock-solid future together?

Book Description
USA Today Bestseller: This “emotionally rich” novel of a father, a son, and a lesson in love is “pure pleasure from beginning to end” (Susan Elizabeth Phillips, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Dance Away with Me). Jesse Sienna doesn’t believe that love can last. His parents’ marriage was caring but passionless, and his own romantic history tells him that love can burn bright, but that it cannot burn for long. So when his elderly father, Mickey, moves in with him and seems unable to understand Jesse’s no-strings-attached relationship with Marina, his current girlfriend, Jesse barely pays attention. It’s just another example of how different they are—and more evidence that he and his father will never connect on any meaningful level. But the truth is, Mickey Sienna knows more about love than most people learn in a lifetime. Over half a century ago, he discovered the endless rewards of investing your heart and soul in someone . . . and he knows the devastating costs of letting the perfect someone slip by. Mickey sees Jesse taking an extraordinary woman for granted and decides it’s time to tell Jesse his story—a story he’s never shared with any of his children before. It is a tale that will change both of them profoundly. “A wry, tender, beautifully written novel. . . . Once I started, I couldn’t put it down.” —Lisa Kleypas, New York Times–bestselling author of Secrets of a Summer Night “Better than Nicholas Sparks’s best. There’s more wit, more wisdom, and yes, there are tears.” —John R. Maxim, New York Times–bestselling author of The Shadow Box “A warm, engaging story [that] is well structured and funny and keeps you turning the pages till the very end. . . . It may even make you rethink your own attitude toward love.” —Suzanne Vega, multiplatinum recording artist

Book Description
A New York Times bestseller: "Udall masterfully portrays the hapless foibles and tragic yearnings of our fellow humans." —San Francisco Chronicle Golden Richards, husband to four wives, father to twenty-eight children, is having the mother of all midlife crises. His construction business is failing, his family has grown into an overpopulated mini-dukedom beset with insurrection and rivalry, and he is done in with grief: due to the accidental death of a daughter and the stillbirth of a son, he has come to doubt the capacity of his own heart. Brady Udall, one of our finest American fiction writers, tells a tragicomic story of a deeply faithful man who, crippled by grief and the demands of work and family, becomes entangled in an affair that threatens to destroy his family’s future. Like John Irving and Richard Yates, Udall creates characters that engage us to the fullest as they grapple with the nature of need, love, and belonging. Beautifully written, keenly observed, and ultimately redemptive, The Lonely Polygamist is an unforgettable story of an American family—with its inevitable dysfunctionality, heartbreak, and comedy—pushed to its outer limits.
