Liz Lally wrote a book about her husband, Tom, two years ago titled Help! I Married a Cartoon Character. Some friends remarked, Liz, you and Tom are two of a kind and definitely Cartoon Characters. Liz shouted, No, I am not a Cartoon Character! Everyone replied in unison, Yes, you are! Liz journeyed back in time to see if some of her experiences may be cartoony and a vision of her second grade picture flashed through her mind. Her hair was parted in the middle and pulled back in braids, her front teeth were missing, and she wore gold thick wire rim safety glasses that were always bent so half of one eye was above the glasses. She may not have been a cartoon character yet but she certainly looked the part. Cartoony situations immediately came to mind. Then she realized these same friends that were accusing her of being a Cartoon Character were with her and sometimes the cause of many of the cartoony encounters. Liz reveals the humorous, cartoony adventures of herself, family, friends, and the people around her. Everyone can relate to these adventures in view of the fact that there is a little Cartoon Character in all of us.

Matt Corbin is going through a rough patch in his life, rougher than his time in Vietnam. He finds himself a cuckold, betrayed by a wife of ten years with another man. Returning to his job as a homicide detective after his service time doesn’t help, nor does having a batch of inadequate partners. It only compounds his trouble tenfold, making it that much heavier to carry. If it wouldn’t be for his best friend, Paul Rice, and a new female partner, attractive and feisty, he would have eaten his gun by now. Then along comes a weird murder case where the bones of the victims are all that is left of them. It’s enough to rock Corbin’s boat and set him back a step.

Anna David’s True Tales of Lust and Love began as a one-time-only reading and storytelling show in January of 2012, a venue for writers and comedians to share and laugh at their dating disaster stories. But after selling out the venue and attracting immediate press and buzz—with articles in The LA Weekly, LA Times, Time Out, Flavorpill, and LAist, among others—David agreed to produce the show every month. It has continued not only to sell out but also to attract a growing list of authors, comedians, and Hollywood writers. As Time Out declared, “This is the place to go to see strong female performers.” With the show now booked indefinitely, and with audio recordings of each performance available on iTunes, Anna has collected the most popular and entertaining pieces into the first ever True Tales of Lust and Love anthology. The book includes essays organized into three sections—Casual Sex, Dating, and Out of the Ordinary—which collectively offer up funny, raucous, insightful, and surprisingly touching confessions about the quest for lust and love. Everyone has dating disaster stories, everyone needs to share and laugh at them, and this anthology will give readers the opportunity to do just that, with contributions from the funniest writers and comedians around, pulled from the world of books, TV, and film. True Tales of Lust and Love is the perfect complement for a funny or cynical Valentine’s Day—and beyond.

Mystery writer and dabbling recreational sleuth Sophie Katz is head over heels in love—with a three-bedroom Victorian. She's just got to have it, despite a few drawbacks. Her slimy ex is the Realtor. The rich, creepy seller wants her to join San Francisco's spirited Specter Society. And her first tour of the house reveals, well, a lifeless body clutching a cameo with a disturbing history of its own. There's no way Sophie is going to give up the ghost on her dreams of stained glass and original woodwork, though—even when things become officially weird. A Society member is found with a slashed throat, and Sophie's house might as well be yelling, "GET…OUT!" She's hearing footsteps, lights are turning themselves off and her stuff keeps moving inexplicably. To top it off, boyfriend Anatoly thinks it's all in her head. Sophie is 99 percent sure her problems are caused by someone six feet tall instead of six feet under, but the only way to be sure is to track down the killer—before he pushes her kicking and screaming to the other side….
