Book Description
Mysterious Poem Leads to Treasure, Murder and Romance in Island Pursuit, a Romantic Suspense from R.T. Wolfe --Present Day, Ibis Island-- Decorated war-widow, Willow Martinez-Clearwater, has her hands full with her six-year-old daughter Chloe, and a restaurant and pub to run. Her best friend, Liam, is the closest thing Chloe has to a father and their special moments melt her soul, while Liam's solid good looks and protective nature work magic in other areas. But Willow has no time for relationships—at least that's what she keeps telling herself. Liam, a simple high-school physics teacher, longs for Willow as his wife and Chloe as his daughter but knows he'll never compete with the memory of Willow's decorated war-hero husband. Then Willow discovers a cryptic poem written by her murdered brother. Posting the verse above the bar at her pub, she inadvertently draws hordes of treasure hunters who try to solve the poem's riddle. But it's Chloe who helps unravel the mystery pointing to a treasure and places her mom in grave danger. When an attempt is made on Willow's life, Liam steps in as protector while still trying to find the nerve to propose. But with her brother's murder unsolved, and a treasure to find, Willow is trying to stay one step ahead of the Island's hawkish treasure hunters willing to do anything for the bounty, while her heart silently pursues her and Chloe's happily-ever-after. Publisher's Note: Known for her intricate plot development and depth of characters, R.T. Wolfe brings loveable characters—and even sea turtles-- to life in her fictitious island setting. This sweet and lively romance will be enjoyed by readers 13+ years. "I love romance books and cut my teeth on Nora Roberts. I can honestly say that this author can compare well as far as keeping the reader hooked on the story from the start, as well as giving just the right amount of detail of the characters that your imagination can fill in the blanks." ~Paw Prints Promotions "R.T. has out done herself with this series." ~Danny and Debbie Scott The Island Escape Series Island Secrets Island Pursuit Island Reveal

Waking Up in Eden
Author: Lucinda Fleeson
Publisher: Algonquin Books
ISBN: 156512944X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Like so many of us, Lucinda Fleeson wanted to escape what had become a routine life. So, she quit her big-city job, sold her suburban house, and moved halfway across the world to the island of Kauai to work at the National Tropical Botanical Garden. Imagine a one-hundred-acre garden estate nestled amid ocean cliffs, rain forests, and secluded coves. Exotic and beautiful, yes, but as Fleeson awakens to this sensual world, exploring the island's food, beaches, and history, she encounters an endangered paradise—the Hawaii we don't see in the tourist brochures. Native plants are dying at an astonishing rate—Hawaii is called the Extinction Capital of the World—and invasive species (plants, animals, and humans) have imperiled this Garden of Eden. Fleeson accompanies a plant hunter into the rain forest to find the last of a dying species, descends into limestone caves with a paleontologist who deconstructs island history through fossil life, and shadows a botanical pioneer who propagates rare seeds, hoping to reclaim the landscape. Her grown-up adventure is a reminder of the value of choosing passion over security, individuality over convention, and the pressing need to protect the earth. And as she witnesses the island's plant renewal efforts, she sees her own life blossom again.

Book Description
In Autonorama: The Illusory Promise of High-Tech Driving, historian Peter Norton argues that driverless cars cannot be the safe, sustainable, and inclusive "mobility solutions" that tech companies and automakers are promising us. The salesmanship behind the "driverless future" is distracting us from better ways to get around that we can implement now. Unlike autonomous vehicles, these alternatives are inexpensive, safe, sustainable, and inclusive. Norton takes the reader on an engaging ride--from the GM Futurama exhibit to "smart" highways and vehicles--to show how we are once again being sold car dependency in the guise of mobility. Autonorama is hopeful, advocating for wise, proven, humane mobility that we can invest in now, without waiting for technology that is forever just out of reach.

Pages : 284
Book Description
A delicious hot billionaire romance featuring two polar opposites adrift in a small island town. It’s bullshit. I’m innocent. And to prove it, I’m surrounded by lawyers and paying them ridiculous sums of money, and the legal eagles have the gall to tell me to be patient. I’m Gabriel Chesterton, a hedge fund manager with a stellar track record. When my firm asks me to take a paid leave while the SEC twits investigate, I have half a mind to tell them where they can shove it. But, I’m told this nightmare won’t last long. And a vacation calls my name - or rather, one particular online celebrity who happens to live on the island my buddy now calls home. She’s the perfect distraction while my life gets sorted out. Only, I make a mistake. Because while I’m focusing on the two-dimensional centerfold, her three-dimensional self knocks me on my ass. That billion-dollar scandal doesn’t hold a candle to the demolition the blue-eyed babe wreaks to my well-ordered, disciplined, successful life. Adrift is a steamy billionaire romance between an alpha arrogant male and the woman who challenges his world order. The standalone contemporary romance novel is the second in the Haven Island series, an island where people come to shelter at their life’s lowest points, right off the coast of North Carolina. See what readers are saying: Absolutely great storyline! This storyline is not like any other that I have read before. It kept me enthralled from start to finish. The characters are all beautifully written about and interact with each other so well that I almost hated to see the story end. The book has just about everything that a reader could ask for in a good read, laughter, heat, tears, passion, a great storyline, interesting characters, and a beautiful ending. - Donna G.

The standalone contemporary romance novel is the second in the Haven Island series, an island where people come to shelter at their life’s lowest points, right off the coast of North Carolina. See what readers are saying: Absolutely great storyline! This storyline is not like any other that I have read before. It kept me enthralled from start to finish. The characters are all beautifully written about and interact with each other so well that I almost hated to see the story end. The book has just about everything that a reader could ask for in a good read, laughter, heat, tears, passion, a great storyline, interesting characters, and a beautiful ending. - Donna G.
