Dead Aid
Summary
A national best-seller, Dead Aid unflinchingly confronts one of the greatest myths of our time: that billions of dollars in aid sent from wealthy countries to developing African nations has helped to reduce poverty and increase growth. In fact, poverty levels continue to escalate and growth rates have steadily declined - and millions continue to suffer. Debunking the current model of international aid promoted by both Hollywood celebrities and policy makers, Dambisa Moyo offers a bold new road map for financing the development of the world's poorest countries. Much debated in the US and the UK on publication, Dead Aid is an unsettling yet optimistic work, a powerful challenge to the assumptions and arguments that support a profoundly misguided development policy in Africa. And it is a clarion call to a new, more hopeful vision of how to address the desperate poverty that plagues millions.

A boy who loved taking her picture and sneaking her chocolates before dinner. A boy who made her feel special. Despite her family's warnings, she loved him in secret for six years. They met in empty classrooms and kissed in darkened church closets. Until they couldn't. Until the time came to choose between love and family, and Evie chose Abel. Because their love was worth the risk. Their love was the stuff of legend. But the thing about legends is that they are cautionary tales. They are made of choices and mistakes.

Crossing the Line
Summary

(Book Fanatic) Recovering from a pulled groin muscle isnt exactly how I planned to spend my much-needed summer vacation. But being nursed back to health by my gorgeous friend, Bailey, whos just graduated from medical school, doesnt exactly sound like a hardship.

A week of watching Bailey grow closer with my mom and sisters, and my wacky but lovable grandma. A week of enjoying Bailey tending to me - which is saying something, because it involves a lot of shoving ice packs into my underwear and taping up sore muscles.

But when Bailey says shes not looking for a relationship, Im bound and determined to be more than just the fun hookup who sprained his groin a second time - this time with her.

Im not the same broken princess Malachy Doherty put back together with his callused hands. I have a career I love. A boyfriend I adore. An apartment, a roommate, a life. I changed. He changed, too.

Insatiable
Summary
I didnt mean to see him naked - it was an accident. It had to be, right? Because Noah McCormick and I have never been anything more than friends. In all the years Ive known him, hes never once laid a finger on me. And even though he was a cute lifeguard at 16 and a hotter-than-hell sheriffs deputy at 34, he's always been that protective guy I could trust to keep his hands to himself. I never wanted to mess with that. Until I walked in on him getting out of the shower and saw his hard, muscular body totally bare and dripping wet. At that moment I never wanted to mess with anything so badly in my entire life. I should have covered my eyes. Said I was sorry. At the very least, I could have handed him a towel. After all, I was only in town for a few days, and he was just doing me a favor by escorting me to my sisters wedding. It wasnt a real date. But I didnt apologize. And he didnt cover up. (Talk about a hot mess.) After all those years of being just friends, suddenly were insatiable. Hes made it clear hes not interested in romance. Which is fine with me because Ive got a plane ticket back to my real life at the end of the week. Its all in fun...or is it?

Undeniable
Summary
When we were 11, Oliver Ford Pemberton dared me to jump off a barn roof. He said you couldnt break a leg from a 12-foot jump. He lied. (You can also break a collarbone, which served him right as far as I was concerned.)

Because he had the nerve to grow up gorgeous, charming, and sexy. And as we got older, the dares only got dirtier - and the betting stakes higher - until finally, he left me in pieces. I swore Id never talk to him again. But 20 years after I took that flying leap, hes back in my life, daring me to risk everything for him: my job, my self-worth, and my heart. How many chances does true love deserve?

The Bookworm's Guide to Faking It
Summary
Let it be known that I, Holley Stuart, do not give a single rat's behind about pro baseball's star pitcher Sebastian Stone. I definitely don't care that he's standing in my bookstore.

Now, he needs a date to his sister's wedding. Don't ask me how I ended up being it - I have no idea. But that's the least of my problems. His grandfather is adamant we're dating, and Seb isn't in a hurry to convince him otherwise, so I have no choice but to go along with it. The problem? The only thing I've ever faked is...well, you know. I've definitely never faked my feelings for someone. And judging by the way I feel whenever Seb looks at me, it doesn't look like I'm starting now....

Thats just what the guy on the internet asked.) Still, Ill humor him. If I go on his little dates, hell teach my bookish, introverted self how not to be totally, completely, utterly, unforgivably awkward on every single one of them. And all I have to do is fall in love with one of the lovely gentlemen hes serving up for me on a silver platter - all of whom fit my very specific guidelines. Simple, right? It would be. If only I could stop falling for Josh.

And now I will do anything - even use her evil secret to take down thousands of people - to save my brothers and get what I want. Her.

Vicious Vet
Summary
I never imagined that Id be adding "manager of operations for Park Street Animal Shelter" to my resume. Not until my firm closed up, my boss moved away, and I was asked, nearly begged, to step in and help. Id do about anything for my old boss and friend, and since I wasnt offered a spot with the firm when they moved, I needed something to keep me surviving here in Temecula, California. Once I found a decent allergy medication and adjusted to the smell that accompanied the shelter, I was oddly excited to start my new venture. That is until I met our on-call veterinarian. Greyson Knox. Local animal doctor, famously rich, unfathomably gorgeous, and my worst nightmare. I can put up a good fight, always have, but against Greyson; Ive always been flustered, irritated...weak. Especially after what happened. Four years I've managed to avoid him. Ive stayed on my side of town with my head down, and now hes here...and I cant escape him. Some men are cordial, kind, professional...but Greyson Knox is nothing but a vicious vet looking to score. My first order of business was to strip him of his job, get him out of my clinic. But like everything between us, it turned into a war. Except for this time, losing would strip me of something I never expected to have. Something Ive been too afraid to want, and when Greyson plays dirty by revealing a secret hes been harboring, my battle lines grow weak, leaving me vulnerable for attack.

That's until she's offered an opportunity of a lifetime by an annoyingly arrogant man who believes he can charm the panties off of every woman he meets. Antonio Michaels has never had to work hard at anything. Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he's been served up a hefty life of entitlement. He's handsome, charmingly arrogant, and dates a different model every month. When he meets Daniella Belle, a bombshell who seems unfazed by his mere existence, he finds himself captivated by her looks, her unrelenting potty mouth, and the fact that he can't stop thinking about her. Will Antonio have to work hard to make Daniella believe that he's the man destined to sweep her off of her feet? Or will Daniella's bad luck with men make her continue to doubt that fairy tale romances truly exist?

Hard Crush
Summary
I never thought Id see her again - let alone find her in the same spot I left her 10 years ago, teaching at the high school where we fell in love. I should have kept walking, but I wanted that laugh, that smile. I wanted five minutes before I got back to a life with no room for my past. One kiss was all I meant to take...but then her fingers were in my hair, her breath hot against my lips, and my hands...everywhere. Now I want more. I want her, but she only wants the guy I used to be. And just like the first time...I cant stay, and she wont leave.

Summary
Im sick of following suit, doing everything my dad thinks I should. Im my own woman, and I know just how Im going to prove it.

Now that Im 24, Im going to do a 180 in my life and take a job I never saw myself doing, just to please me. It really cant be too hard to serve food to people, make beds, and use a feather duster...can it? Ill be sailing away and forgetting all my worries. Or so I think, until I look up to see the sexy captain, with his white hat on, step in front of me and I meet Reed Nichols. Growing up while traveling the open seas made my decision to take over the family business the easiest one Ive ever had to make. After four years in college taking accounting classes, I went after my true dream...a captains license. I always knew Id follow in my fathers footsteps; I just didnt think itd be this soon. Right before he passed, he asked me to do just that, and Ive never looked back. Right now, my life is perfect, just the way I want it. I run the company my father founded and drive a million-dollar yacht every day. I pick and choose who lies in my bed, and Ive never allowed anyone there for more than a night or two. No one has ever kept my attention any longer than that. Then I look down to see the long legs of a cabin stewardess walking toward my boat and I meet Maci Foster.

Our memories are deceiving, but I know what I want now. What I need more than anything. I wont rest until hes as much mine as I am his. Its always been him.

Respect
Summary
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who called a corrupt kingdom home sweet home. Protected and sheltered from the worst the world had to offer, she fell in love with the crumbling city that burned and blazed around her. Every dirty corner, every scary shadow, found a place within her heart. So did a man who was violent and dangerous, just like the streets she claimed as her own. He was all business and brutality, except when it came to her. With her, he was calm, caring, and heartbreakingly patient. He warned her over and over that he wasn't the man for her, but she refused to listen. She never expected either the streets or their enforcer to hurt her, since she'd given her heart so completely to both. She should have known the streets in the Point were always going to be savage, and so was the man committed to keeping control of them in the hands of criminals and bloody kingpins. Blindsided by a betrayal which cut so deeply she was sure the wounds would never heal, the princess fled the home she loved and the man who broke her heart. Throwing away her rusted, twisted crown was supposed to help her forget. All it did was make her long for everything she left behind. She told herself she would never go back, but in this tormented kingdom, family is everything. Eventually, she has no choice but to return. While she was gone, the people who loved her worked hard to make the city safe, and the man who destroyed her sank deeper into the darkness. Going back shouldn't feel like surrender
but it does. As this pretty princess hovers on the edge of the unknown, the past attacks with a vengeance. It's a good reminder that puppy love eventually grows up and turns into something with sharp teeth and one hell of a bite. She never asked for the keys to the kingdom. She'd much rather go out and build her own. Jay's note to all of you awesome listeners out there: This is the final book to the entire Point series.
