She's lost her soul mate. She doesn't believe you get a second. Will the least likely candidate of all be able to change her mind. Jennie Farrell always believed there was a happily ever after out there for everyone. Shame she’s missed out on her own. Rocking up in London with close friend Samantha, Jennie falls back on her long-ignored artistic skills to make ends meet. Her future is even looking bright when she runs into Rupert Smythe-Brown, an aristocratic prat used to getting his own way, no matter who gets hurt in the process. Painted into a corner, Jennie turns feral and Rupert doesn’t know what’s hit him. Well he does, but for once he’s not enjoying it. Thank goodness she’s got Mark, a strapping six foot four Aussie bloke watching her back and keeping her out of trouble — at least when he’s not trying to get her into it. Brush With Fame is a chuckle along, feel good book for any woman who’s ever wanted to fight back but hasn’t felt strong enough. TRIGGER WARNING: Set in the seventies, the book contains swearing, drinking, and bad behaviour. Please do not read this novel if this will upset you and cause an adverse reaction. This series is full of bad language, bad behaviour and poorly executed Farrah Fawcett hairstyles. While laugh-out-loud at times, the books also touch on real life, making them raw in places.

What if by chance you met a famous person? And he wanted you...I showed up to the movie set bright and early Monday for a one-day sub position on a blockbuster sequel. It was crucial to prove myself as a makeup artist to break into the Hollywood scene.While waiting on the obnoxious actor assigned to me to finish a phone call, it suddenly happened. I saw him standing in the doorway-Evan Hutchinson. Never mind I'd already fallen into his lap when someone knocked into me earlier. We'd gotten past that little embarrassment. But why did the movie's famous British heartthrob request me for touch-ups? Either way, I did them, of course. Who wouldn't jump at the chance to touch his face-but with a makeup brush? What I didn't expect was for him to talk to me-to borderline flirt with me.Once I was home and talking on the phone with my long-distance boyfriend about nothing important, the call came. Evan Hutchinson requested me to finish the movie as his personal makeup artist. After nearly dropping the phone from shock, I'd accepted.It's now Wednesday night, and the other actors have left. For some reason, Evan asked me to stay. We were alone in his apartment, seated on his couch. Somehow, we ended up discussing what it's like to do a movie kiss with someone you aren't romantically involved with.Before finally leaving for home, I lowered my car window to say good night. Then the craziest thing happened-Evan offered to show me what a kiss is like. And he suggested I let him know if I'd ever like him to practice with me.Now I don't know what to do because I can't stop thinking about Evan Hutchinson kissing me...*** This is a contemporary romance/new adult stand-alone novel. No cliffhanger. It contains moderate steam and sensitive subject matter. Recommended for 18+.

A Legacy of Endurance: Memoirs of My Long Life by John Prcela My World War II and especially postwar experiences prompted me to write this book. In the aftermath of WWII, almost my entire Croatian generation was murdered in a long chain of “Death Marches” and extermination camps throughout the then existing Communist Yugoslavia. However, the would-be historians of that period of history have left just the blank pages about my murdered Croatian generation or they have described those victims as murderers! Such travesty of justice and history, prompted me to write this autobiography, although I already wrote several historic books on that horrifying subject. I am a survivor of that peace-time Croatian Holocaust, known as the Bleiburg Tragedy. That is why in these memoirs I want to leave to the future American and Croatian generations my own legacy which I not only lived through so many tragic vicissitudes but also described it in several historic and theological books

This New York Times bestseller explores the life and many owners of an imaginary Vermeer painting in an “impressive debut collection” of linked stories (Publishers Weekly). A Dutch painting of a young girl survives three and a half centuries of loss, flood, anonymity, theft, secrecy, and even the Holocaust. This is the story of its owners whose lives are influenced by its beauty and mystery. Despite their many troubles and unsatisfied longings, the girl in hyacinth blue has the power to inspire love in all its human variety. This luminous story begins in the present day, when a professor invites a colleague to his home to see a painting that he has kept secret for decades. The professor swears it is a Vermeer—but why has he hidden this important work for so long? The reasons unfold in a series of events that trace the ownership of the painting back to World War II and Amsterdam, and still further back to the moment of the work’s inspiration. As the painting moves through each owner’s hands, what was long hidden quietly surfaces, illuminating poignant moments in multiple lives. Susan Vreeland’s characters remind us, through their love of this mysterious painting, how beauty transforms and why we reach for it, what lasts and what in our lives is singular and unforgettable. “Vreeland’s book is a work of art.” —New York Post

The life of artist Georgia O'Keeffe is revealed in this biographical novel — from her childhood when she decided to be an artist, through her art education in Chicago and New York, to her eventual rise to fame in the American Southwest. At the age of 12, Georgia O'Keeffe announced that she wanted to be an artist. With the support of her family, O'Keeffe attended boarding schools with strong art programs, and after graduating, went to live with an aunt and uncle in Chicago to attend the city's highly regarded Art Institute. Illness forced O'Keeffe to leave Chicago, but once she'd recovered, her family scraped together funds to send her to New York to study at the Art Students League. When her family fell on hard times, she left without the degree she needed. Discouraged, but unwilling to give up her dream, O'Keeffe found a different path. She became an art teacher in schools in Texas and South Carolina, honing her own craft as she taught her students. O'Keeffe never gave up her dream, no matter what obstacles she encountered--she knew she was meant to be an artist.
