Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit
Summary
Winner of the Whitbread Prize for best first fiction. Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit is a coming-out novel from Winterson, the acclaimed author of The Passion and Sexing the Cherry. The narrator, Jeanette, cuts her teeth on the knowledge that she is one of God’s elect, but as this budding evangelical comes of age and comes to terms with her preference for her own sex, the peculiar balance of her God-fearing household crumbles.

The Consuming Instinct
Summary
In this highly informative and entertaining book, the founder of the vibrant new field of evolutionary consumption illuminates the relevance of our biological heritage to our daily lives as consumers. While culture is important, the author shows that innate evolutionary forces deeply influence the foods we eat, the gifts we offer, the cosmetics and clothing styles we choose to make ourselves more attractive to potential mates, and even the cultural products that stimulate our imaginations (such as art, music, and religion). The book demonstrates that most acts of consumption can be mapped onto four key Darwinian drives - namely, survival (we prefer foods high in calories); reproduction (we use products as sexual signals); kin selection (we naturally exchange gifts with family members); and reciprocal altruism (we enjoy offering gifts to close friends). The author further highlights the analogous behaviors that exist between human consumers and a wide range of animals. For anyone interested in the biological basis of human behavior or simply in what makes consumers tick-marketing professionals, advertisers, psychology mavens, and consumers themselves - this is a fascinating listen.

Sin Shot
Summary
"There's a lot more to me than what I've let on in the public eye." (Georg Kolochev, Vegas Crush) No, I don't drink vodka straight from the bottle. I don't pour it over my breakfast cereal either. I am not in need of an intervention...unless it involves me and a certain blonde bombshell alone in a room with a locking door. I've done my fair share of partying, I'll admit. And yes, I've built up something of a reputation with the ladies when not on the ice. That's on me for being careless with my posts on social. And I do know what's most important in my life. Two things. Hockey...and Pamela Jenson. My favorite physical therapist needs me so much more than she knows. Because I am the guy delivering her sin shot. Yeah, you heard me. I'm her first. Sinning with Pam has never felt so good. *Sin Shot is a super sexy stand-alone sports romance about a Russian bad-boy hockey god and a not-so-innocent virgin physical therapist! Things are about to heat up in the therapy room....

Crushed
Summary
"No-fraternization policies were made to be broken." (Evan Kazmeirowicz, Vegas Crush) This may sound reasonable coming from the star winger for the Vegas Crush the day he lays eyes on the new social media manager for the team, but for Holly Laurent, it’s a whole different story. Dating a “player” is a risky business, especially if she wants to keep the job she just landed with the hottest team in the NHL. Holly loves her independence and her career. She’s doing just fine on her own, thank you very much. Allowing her head to be turned by a hot hockey player and putting her job at risk? Not. Happening. Ever. Not even if he looks like a god. Not even if he possesses enough charm to tempt the panties from a nun. Not even if she has to cross her fingers behind her back every time she tells him she’s not interested. Policies exist for a reason. Rules are not meant to be broken, and sexy players are not to be trusted. Right? Crushed is a super sexy stand-alone sports romance about a Ukrainian American hockey god and the new social media manager for the team. Twitter is about to explode!
