Book Description
Most parents want their kids to grow up to be something respectable like a doctor or lawyer. My mom wants me to become a man-eating ho. I, Eliana Barchim, vow to never follow my mother’s footsteps. Eliana’s determination to never be the succubus her mother wants her to be starts faltering when her mother unexpectedly interferes. It doesn’t help that a local shifter with a cute dimple is trying to help cheer Eliana up when her best and only friend leaves town. With her control slipping, Eliana resorts to something drastic to get rid of her mom. However, Eliana’s fear of ruining the one person she can trust to stand by her side might be the thing that brings her carefully composed control to its knees. Nothing can withstand a starving succubus’s hunger. Warning: Contains a reluctant succubus, a well-meaning mom who thinks monogamy is a dirty word, and a brownie who can't stop touching himself. Recommended for mature teen readers and up.

Kiss 'em Goodbye
Author: Dennis Purdy
Publisher: ESPN
ISBN: 0345520122
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
The fascinating sports history of defunct teams in baseball, hockey, basketball and more! THEY'RE GOING, GOING, GONE. . . . Their names roll off the tongue, a litany of the damned: the Providence Steam Roller, the Wilmington Quicksteps, the Cincinnati Porkers. They are the lost squads of professional sports history--teams forsaken by fans, fleeced by owners, or forgotten by time. Until now. Kiss 'Em Goodbye unearths the real stories of dozens of vanished teams that once graced--and often disgraced--North America's big leagues. Like the St. Paul Apostles, the only major league team never to have played a home game; Card-Pitt, the NFL's World War II doormat; and the Philadelphia Quakers of the NHL, a team owned jointly by bootleggers and a retired boxer who climbed back into the ring to help meet payroll. In obituaries for both big-city franchises that skipped town (the Baltimore Colts, the Brooklyn Dodgers) and small-town teams that had their brief moment of glory (the Tonawanda Kardex, the Pottsville Maroons), Kiss 'Em Goodbye commemorates mysterious fires, waterlogged basketball courts, fields tended by goats ("cheaper than mowers!"), and uniforms that broke team budgets. It's all here in a fascinating, hilarious, page-turning celebration of teams that prove it's not whether you win or lose, but that you once played the game.
