A tale of two brothers, one lucky hat, and a whole lot of style Ben and Charlie are utterly preoccupied with fashion: Older brother Ben thinks he represents the cutting edge of what’s hip, and younger brother Charlie tags along. Chief among Ben’s treasure chest of dapper duds is his good-luck Bogie hat, a fedora that makes him look like Humphrey Bogart. But when Ben starts dating a girl named Penny, his notion of what’s cool and what isn’t gets thrown out of whack. Charlie stands by, indignant and amazed, as Penny wraps his older brother around her little finger. When Ben’s grades start to slip, his parents shake their heads in amazement: Their eldest child has been bewitched! But when Ben spends his own money on a boring white shirt to please his girlfriend, Charlie finally decides to snap his beloved brother out of it. Hijinks ensue as Charlie schemes to save Ben, his sense of style, and even the Bogie hat from certain doom. It’s up to Charlie to remind his sibling that being yourself is infinitely more valuable than trying to impress someone new.

There’s nothing like falling for your worst enemy. Beatriz Herrera is a fierce woman who will take you down with her quick wit and keen intellect. And after the results of the 2016 election worked hard to erase her identity as a queer biracial woman, she’d be right to. Especially if you come for her sweet BFF cousin, Hero. Beatriz would do anything for her, a loyalty that lands Beatriz precisely where she doesn’t want to be: spending a week at the ridiculous Cape Cod mansion of stupid-hot playboy Ben Montgomery. The same Ben Montgomery she definitely shouldn’t have hooked up with that one time… The things we do for family. White and wealthy, Ben talks the talk and walks the walk of privilege, but deep down, he’s wrestling with the politics and expectations of a conservative family he can’t relate to. Though Beatriz’s caustic tongue drives him wild in the very best way, he's the last person she'd want, because she has zero interest in compromising her identity. But as her and Ben’s assumptions begin to unravel and their hookups turn into something real, they start wondering if it’s still possible to hold space for one another and the inescapable love that unites them. This retelling of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing is both razor-sharp and swoon-worthy: the perfect love story for our time.

"Scott displays a deft touch with her main and supporting characters, and a realistic, moving development of Reza and Emily's romance. Readers will ache, cheer, and worry in all the right places."~Publishers Weekly (starred review) Welcome home to the great place, the home of America’s Army, where the men are strong and the women are tough enough to love them. There’s no crying in war. That’s what Reza Iaconelli believes with everything that he is - because its the only thing in his life that he’s been able to control. Running from the demons of his past, he’s given the his men everything, hiding the worry and fear beneath a gruff exterior. Nothing will stand in the way of him taking care of his men — especially not some direct commission head doc who can barely put on her uniform. He has no idea what she’s even doing in the Army, other than getting under his skin. Emily may not know much about the Army but she knows that it’s terrible at taking care of soldiers. Running from a past that never accepted her, she’s looking for a place to belong. Emily isn’t fooled by Reza’s rough, angry exterior. Beneath the hard edges, she sees a man who’s hiding — using war as a means to escape the demons from his past. When they collide over one of his soldiers, Reza faces his toughest challenge yet. As his efforts to remain sober start to fail, he’ll need to find the strength to do the one thing he’s never asked anyone: ask for help. And it may be more than he’s capable of. “Scott delivers another sensitive, touching look at the trials and tribulations of modern military life at Fort Hood, Texas… tackling military suicides and the macho culture that contributes to them.” ~Publishers Weekly (starred review) **Previously published as ALL FOR YOU as part of the Coming Home series**
