In their marriage of convenience, I become the major inconvenience. Captain Xavran Rax from the planet Aldrai doesn’t need a lover, a friend, or even a companion. He’s been keeping a secret about his wife’s death for over a decade, and he’s certainly not interested in replacing her anytime soon. The only reason he decides to bring a woman into his household is because he believes it would benefit his four children, especially his two daughters. Mara Takolsky doesn’t find Aldraians even remotely attractive. Neither does she care about children of any species. She accepts the proposal of Captain Rax only because her dead fiancé owed a lot of money to the criminals who now wish to collect it from her, either in money or blood. Leaving Earth is her only chance to stay alive. You may ask how do I fit into captain and Mara’s ever so practical marriage of convenience? The answer is I don’t. I’m Susanna, Mara’s twin sister. I have a man who betrayed me, too, and I tag along to Aldrai to escape the mafia who threaten to kill both Mara and me. When my sister and I arrive on Aldrai, however, things don’t go as planned… ______________________ All books in My Holiday Tails series stand alone, loosely connected by the same world and the fact that all heroes have tails.

For many, a mummy is an Egyptian pharaoh, wrapped in cloth, found thousands of years later in a pyramid by archaeologists. But mummies need not be ancient. Modern-day mummies can be found under glass in special tombs built in their honor, in private collections where they have come to rest after decades on the carnival circuit, in dissecting rooms of medical schools, and in the basements of funeral homes waiting for decades to be claimed by the next of kin. Stories about the famous (Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, Ho Chi Minh, Eva Peron) and the not-so-famous (Leslie Hansell wanted her body mummified to bask in the sun rather than being buried in the cold ground) mummies are told here in great detail, along with a broader look at the history and process of mummification. The book includes a comprehensive study of the successful prolonged preservation of the human body, and delves into the law and science of modern mummification.

How Women Make Money is a twofold exploration into the entrepreneurial spirit of Canadian women from all walks of life. It is the story of women who have realized that their paths are not pre-determined, whose experiences are united with vision and sense of purpose, and who continue to challenge their own ideas, and others' presumptions, of what their lives should look like. It is also a guide to building both business smarts and character: Julie Watson, an entrepreneur herself, delivers the goods - good planning, good guidelines, good business acumen - offering practical advice on such things as matching personal goals with business goals, developing old skills and learning new ones, using past experiences to infuse new passions, and balancing vision and bookkeeping. The road to self-employment is paved with self-discovery.
