The Arrangement
Summary
Businesswoman, Sam Phillips, was quite content focusing on her single life. At 37, she didn't have the time to explore. She was never supposed to be alone, not in this world. One devastating day would crush everything she had ever known, but deep down, she knew there was more to life than business. Alexis Foster wasn't looking for love. With work commitments only growing by the day, a life of "arrangements" as a high-class escort appeared to be the way forward. After all, at 25, Alexis had all the time in the world to settle down. A simple decision would change their lives, but with a past ever-present for one of them, and a past lurking for the other, one of them must decide if she can give her all. Is it too good to be true? Or can the heart be given away more than once? Contains mature themes.

Forever Yours
Summary
A second chance, age gap winter romance that will have you cheering them on, crying for them...while a whole lot of love settles in your heart. Paisley Healy was never supposed to fall in love with her boss. Her superior. The woman she looked up to. Working at the best law firm in the city was supposed to be cut and dry. The night she confessed her love to the woman she was falling for should have been magical, so why was she alone three years on, unanswered questions continuously plaguing her mind? Georgina Weaver’s dream had always centered around her business. Love wasn’t everything to her - she wasn’t sure it could compete with the demands of her job - but her assistant had quickly blown that out of the water. With the words "I love you" spoken with such beauty and honesty, Georgina was prepared to give her entire universe to Paisley. One night would change everything. One moment would crush their dream. When Georgina walks back through the doors of Weaver and Associates - interrupting the annual Christmas party and Paisley’s life - both of them must make choices. While Georgina learns of some powerful news, Paisley believes their past is better left buried.

In Her Arms
Summary
One night. Nothing held back. And maybe finding everything they need…. Reagan’s only plan, when she came alone to a lesbian bar in the city, was to knock back a few drinks far from her lonely country house. Looking around at the younger regulars, though, maybe it was a mistake to think this was a good place to start fresh. Then she meets a beautiful woman with stunning brown eyes and the world’s cheesiest pickup lines. Before Reagan knows it, she’s spending one night of passion in a stranger’s bed. Then fleeing back to the country. Alone. Frankie’s had enough of the city. Even the bar scene has gone stale, eclipsed by the memory of a black-haired, green-eyed woman who lit up her world - and disappeared. Needing a change of scene, Frankie sets out to rent a quaint country cottage. That’s when she discovers her new landlord is Reagan. But a different Reagan. She’s cautious. Prickly. Afraid. Maybe the smart thing for Frankie to do is head straight back to the city. Or maybe it’s worth the risk to stay - and kiss away the walls Reagan’s built around her heart.

America and Iran
Summary
An important, urgently needed book - a hugely ambitious, illuminating portrait of the two-centuries-long entwined histories of Iran and America, and the first book to examine, in all its aspects, the rich and fraught relations between these two powers - once allies, now adversaries. By an admired historian and the author of Untapped: The Scramble for Africa's Oil - "he would do Graham Greene proud" (Kirkus Reviews). In this rich, fascinating history, John Ghazvinian traces the complex story of the relations of these two powers back to the Persian Empire of the 18th century - the subject of great admiration of Thomas Jefferson and John Quincy Adams - and an America seen by Iranians as an ideal to emulate for their own government. Drawing on years of archival research both in the United States and Iran - including access to Iranian government archives rarely available to Western scholars - the Iranian-born, Oxford-educated historian leads us through the four seasons of US-Iran relations: the "spring" of mutual fascination; the "summer" of early interactions; the "autumn" of close strategic ties; and the long, dark "winter" of mutual hatred. Ghazvinian, with grasp and a storyteller's ability, makes clear where, how, and when it all went wrong. And shows why two countries that once had such heartfelt admiration for each other became such committed enemies; showing us, as well, how it didn't have to turn out this way.
