Hate-to-love romance takes center stage in Jenn Bennett's contemporary novels, Alex Approximately and Starry Eyes, now together in one incredible package that's perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Morgan Matson. When the guy you're meant to be with is your worst enemy, things can get a little...complicated. Especially for Bailey in Alex, Approximately after she falls for a sensitive film geek she only knows online as "Alex." It also just so happens that Bailey is moving to California--to the same coastal town as her online crush--and yet she is too afraid to tell Alex she's moved to his hometown. Or that she's landed a job where she's being tormented daily by her coworker: smart-alecky yet irritatingly hot surfer boy Porter Roth. But what Bailey doesn't know is that Porter isn't just any local surfer dude. Porter Roth is Alex...approximately. Trapped in the wilderness with the boy who broke your heart isn't an ideal situation for anyone. And in Starry Eyes, it was definitely not what Zorie had planned for a camping trip. Abandoned by her friends with only her ex-boyfriend Lennon for company, the two have no choice but to hash out their issues via witty jabs and insults as they try to make their way to safety. But as the duo travels deeper into California's rugged backcountry, secrets and hidden feelings surface. Turns out the magic of the twinkling stars might be the key to getting Zorie and Lennon back together--or the last straw to tear them apart for good. Jenn Bennett's popular hate-to-love romances are here to prove that sometimes the one person you can't stand is actually the person of your dreams--you just might not know it yet.

A chauffer's daughter finds herself in the middle of a love triangle with the sons of her boss's wealthy next-door neighbors in this delightfully romantic story from the author of Alex, Approximately, Jenn Bennett. Love--and Fen Sarafian--do not care about your summer plans. Eighteen-year-old chauffeur's daughter Jane Marlow grew up among the domestic staff of a wealthy LA rock producer, within reach of bands she idolizes, but never a VIP. Every summer, Jane and her father head to the Sierras to work at the producer's luxury lodge at Lake Condor--a resort town and the site of a major musical festival. The legendary family who runs the festival are the Sarafians, and Jane's had a longtime crush on their oldest son, Eddie--doltish but sweet. So, when a long-distance romance finally sparks between them, she doesn't hesitate to cross class lines. But Jane's feelings for Eddie are thrown into question after she returns to the lake and reconnects with his alluringly intense brother, the dark horse of her placid summer plans. A fellow lover of music--and hater of the game--Fen Sarafian has been ousted from the family and is slumming it at a vinyl record shop. He burns for Jane like a house on fire and will do anything to sabotage his older brother, even if it means taking a wrecking ball to a multi-million-dollar music festival. Or Jane's heart.

Understanding Gender Violence

Despite 50 years of activism, legal changes, and crisis service provision, there is no evidence to suggest any widespread decrease in rates of gender violence in the United States. People still experience gender violence at alarming rates, are often not believed, and encounter countless obstacles in navigating medical, criminal justice, media, and other institutional responses to their disclosures. The urgency of addressing the dynamics and causes of situations like these, as well as our failure to catalyze widespread decrease in rates of gender violence, fresh ideas for thinking about gender violence differently. Black Lives Matter, indigenous rights, LGBTIQA rights, and other social justice movements have made it clear how marginalized bodies and identities need to take central stage in gender violence response and prevention efforts. As a movement, we need to do better. But how?This book responds to this question by reframing how we think about the problem of gender violence so that we can address it more collaboratively and effectively. Using a paradigm-shifting comprehensive approach, Freitag offers a new perspective on defining gender violence, considering its impact, and explaining why it occurs. Instead of focusing only on (men’s) violence against women, this text offers a comprehensive definition of gender violence that focuses on gendered dynamics across a wide continuum of behaviors ranging from language and microaggressions to physical violence and murder. The author identifies and digs into the root causes that all forms of gender violence share to facilitate a big picture understanding of how cycles of gender violence continue. She shares personal anecdotes and includes examples of the lived realities of gender violence and its aftermath. She proposes applications of a comprehensive approach for every area of gender violence response and calls for ways to make our work reflexive, collaborative, and sustainable.

Bertie Clippinger plays tricks on the unwary at the Capitol Building, where the teen accidentally fell to his death when a game went horribly wrong. One of Lansing's founding families keeps a spectral vigil over its homestead, the Turner Dodge House.

Swallowed in time and believed to be burned by Nazis, the Amber Chamber is a treasure lost in war and chaos. A chance purchase in France leads museum curator Carlos Sheldon and his assistant Lauren on a broken chase through Europe for the lost Amber Room. Pursued by deadly Russian and Polish mercenaries with their own agendas, staying one step ahead of the hunt ends in a stumble as the lines between sides blur. Reviewed by Kayci Webster for Readers' Favorite: "...what the Duke has hidden in the family crypt could blow the art world away...it gets a bit dicey since they are not the only ones looking into the antiques, but probably the only ones doing it legally. Mystery, intrigue, sabotage, and kidnapping, along with out and out theft all come into play and three different parties try to find the same limited pieces for different reasons...a dynamic read...I did not want to put it down." Book 2 in the Rediscovered Series. The first book in the series, Last Assault on Oak Island, is released through this and other publishing outlets.

Women have so many things vying for their attention. Most try to handle everything with grace and ease, look perfect, be a stellar mom, be an understanding and loving wife, be a flawless boss or employee, be an ever-attentive friend, pursue their own interests, and leave no one disappointed. But is this realistic? Jenn Johnson has come to realize that the pursuit of perfection is unrealistic and unfair. Instead, we need to focus on what's important, do things with intention, and seek what is true, noble, right, pure, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy. We need to pursue All Things Lovely. Living a holy and holistic life, a life marked by beauty and truth, means being mindful and intentional about the food we put in our bodies, how we present ourselves to the world, the spaces we create, and the people we let into our lives. When we set our minds on what is lovely, we begin to see ourselves and the world as God intended. We begin to be wholly renewed.All Things Lovely is divided into four parts: Home, Heart, Health and Hospitality. Jenn invites the reader on a search for All Things Lovely by sharing the joy of healthy recipes, the clarity that comes from an organized and cozy space in your home, the importance of building community, and the peace that comes from a pure and loving heart. The book will include beautiful full color photography of Jenn's family, her home, and mouthwatering food.
