Startup
Summary
From veteran online journalist and BuzzFeed writer Doree Shafrir comes a hilarious debut novel that proves there are some dilemmas that no app can solve. Mack McAllister has a $600 million idea. His mindfulness app, TakeOff, is already the hottest thing in tech, and he's about to launch a new and improved version that promises to bring investors running and may turn his brainchild into a $1 billion business - in startup parlance, an elusive unicorn. Katya Pasternack is hungry for a scoop that will drive traffic. An ambitious young journalist at a gossipy tech blog, Katya knows that she needs more than another PR-friendly puff piece to make her the go-to byline for industry news. Sabrina Choe Blum just wants to stay afloat. The exhausted mother of two and failed creative writer is trying to escape from her credit card debt and an inattentive husband - who also happens to be Katya's boss - as she rejoins a workforce that has gotten younger, hipper, and much more computer literate since she's been away. Before the ink on Mack's latest round of funding is dry, an errant text message hints that he may be working a bit too closely for comfort with a young social media manager in his office. When Mack's bad behavior collides with Katya's search for a salacious post, Sabrina gets caught in the middle as TakeOff goes viral for all the wrong reasons. As the fallout from Mack's scandal engulfs the lower Manhattan office building where all three work, it's up to Katya and Sabrina to write the story the men in their lives would prefer remain untold. An assured, observant debut from veteran online journalist Doree Shafrir, Startup is a sharp, hugely entertaining story of youth, ambition, love, money, and technology's inability to hack human nature.

A Touch of Heaven
Summary
Regan Amerson's quiet and stable life has suddenly become a roller-coaster ride. After making the emotional decision for her and her mother to sell their family home, Regan is doing her best to come to grips with it. When her mother wins a home makeover/renovation from a reality television show, Regan is furious. Not only is she losing her beloved home, but some cheesy reality show contractor wants to tear it apart first? Sawyer Bennett is a little more than disillusioned with his stint hosting The Bennett Project. He's ready to branch out on his own - sans television crew - and get back to the art of custom carpentry. Unfortunately his father and his producer have suddenly come up with a new angle to make the show better than ever. How? Add some good old-fashioned family drama. Sawyer is against it, especially after meeting Regan Amerson and her mother. He's drawn to Regan immediately, but when she makes it clear that she wants nothing to do with him or his home renovation, Sawyer is determined to win her over on both counts. While Regan and Sawyer struggle with keeping their relationship from becoming reality TV fodder, there is enough distraction on the set that has them each wondering what they've gotten themselves in to.

Angel's Halo: Avenged
Summary
Backing the Angel’s Halo MC into a corner will only cause an explosion. Surrounded by their enemies, with danger lurking right outside their door, the MC is on total lock down. Between the Italians and the senator, they are looking over their shoulders every minute of the day. But was there an enemy sleeping right under their roof? Kelli: I’ve always done what I had to survive, but it wasn’t just me I had to fend for. With my mother’s illness taking over her mind and making me a stranger to her, I would do anything to make sure she gets the care she needs. But when it came down to it, I couldn’t betray Colt. I sold out my bastard of a father - trading his secrets for enough money that would ensure my mother would always have what she needs - to protect the man I swore to myself I wouldn’t fall for. But too late, I realized he was everything I really needed. Colt: With her fierce passion, I fell for Kelli long before I was ready to admit it to myself. Now that love was blurred by the betrayal that had blindsided me. At least with the USB drive of all the secrets she spilled on her father, we now had the upper hand on at least one of our enemies. But will it be enough to repair what was broken between us? Or will she become another casualty of this war who would have to be avenged?
