Professor Pickett in the cafe with the Mardi Gras beads? New Orleans ghost tour gift shop manager, Paige Harrington, makes a wish for her twenty-fifth birthday: to find the one thing she can be as passionate about as her cancer-curing scientist parents. She doesn’t, however, expect her calling to come in the form of a mysterious app on her phone that matches her up with the ghost of a cute bartender who wants her to solve his murder. Nor for her pet hedgehog, Auguste, to start talking to her with a French accent. When her favorite professor turned cafe owner, Liz Pickett is framed for the murder, Paige can’t sit by and let all of this happen. Even if uncovering the truth means tangling with the Enclave, a secret society with the power and connections to make someone like her asking too many questions disappear without a trace. With the Enclave and their dark secrets dogging at her heels, Paige will have to step up her sleuthing skills and unmask the real killer before she ends up their next victim.

The one who got away is back in town...but only until midnight. Wendy Deveaux, prickly heiress to her family's New Orleans ghost tour business has pushed aside her own dreams to take care of her family and take over the business for her ailing dad. At least, that's what she tells herself. Sacrificing for the people she loves sounds a lot better than admitting an uncomfortable truth: every time she's gotten close to taking a leap, she's bailed before anyone can reject her. Now, this New Year's Eve, Wendy's alone and spinning her wheels while everyone else speeds forward, and she's second-guessing her choices. Especially walking away from Alec, the sexy cinnamon roll Canadian who melted the ice around her Scroogy heart and completed her in a way she never saw coming. When Alec unexpectedly walks back into her tour shop on New Year's Eve, the old feelings rush back, along with a reminder of the unshakable connection they shared before she chickened out. Wendy's never been more sure in her life about what she wants. But after the way she hurt him before, could he ever give her a second chance? Playing it safe could help her dodge another crushing blow. But if she lets him walk out of her city again without fighting for him, she may regret it for the rest of her life. It might take three smart-assed spirits, a dose of holiday magic, and joining forces with Alec's possibly evil twin, but if Wendy can find a way to move past her fears, their story just might have a happy ending after all. This cozy, feel-good second chance romance is a retelling of a Christmas Carol, perfect for anyone who's ever wanted to take a leap and see it ends happily ever after.

Can a believer and a skeptic move beyond their haunted pasts and find a way back ? to each other? Julie Deveaux is used to believing in things she cannot see. But when a Jackson Square psychic calls her over for an impromptu prediction, she?s as skeptical as the mystery blogger who?s trying to take down her family?s ghost tour business. According to the psychic, the grandson of her thesis subject, infamous French Quarter murderess Sophia Durocher, holds the key to solving Julie?s problems. Griffin Durocher, the anonymous blogger behind Debunked, is tired of two things: people digging into his past, and businesses cashing in on hoaxes. His once-beloved grandmother Sophia and lauded NOLA psychic had everyone fooled--including him--before she was revealed as a fraud. He?s ready to take down businesses doing the same to unsuspecting people, and next on his list is Deveaux?s Historical Haunts. A chance collision in Jackson Square brings Julie and Griffin together, and an undeniable attraction sparks fanned by a shared love of obscure history. When the two accidentally exchange copies of a rare book and read each other?s margin notes their connection intensifies. But everything comes crashing down when their true identities are revealed.

An incisive, intersectional essay anthology that celebrates and examines romance and romantic media through the lens of Black readers, writers, and cultural commentators, edited by Book Riot columnist and librarian Jessica Pryde. Romantic love has been one of the most essential elements of storytelling for centuries. But for Black people in the United States and across the diaspora, it hasn't often been easy to find Black romance joyfully showcased in entertainment media. In this collection, revered authors and sparkling newcomers, librarians and academicians, and avid readers and reviewers consider the mirrors and windows into Black love as it is depicted in the novels, television shows, and films that have shaped their own stories. Whether personal reflection or cultural commentary, these essays delve into Black love now and in the past, including topics from the history of Black romance to social justice and the Black community to the meaning of desire and desirability. Exploring the multifaceted ways love is seen—and the ways it isn't—this diverse array of Black voices collectively shines a light on the power of crafting happy endings for Black lovers. Jessica Pryde is joined by Carole V. Bell, Sarah Hannah Gomez, Jasmine Guillory, Da’Shaun Harrison, Margo Hendricks, Adriana Herrera, Piper Huguley, Kosoko Jackson, Nicole M. Jackson, Beverly Jenkins, Christina C. Jones, Julie Moody-Freeman, and Allie Parker in this collection.

Rube Marquard's life was touched by success and scandal at nearly every turn. In 1906, the teenage pitcher defied his father and became a ballplayer. Two years later, the Giants purchased his contract for the then record $11,000. He soon became the best left-handed pitcher in the game; over the course of his career he won 201 games, threw a no-hitter and pitched in five World Series. Off the field, Marquard was a master at marketing himself, recreating his story as it suited him. He wrote his own newspaper column, starred in movies, delighted crowds by catching balls thrown off high buildings, and even appeared as a female impersonator. But it was his affair and brief marriage with vaudeville sensation Blossom Seeley that caused the most uproar. Along with Seeley, Marquard became the toast of Broadway to the chagrin of his baseball fans. Throughout his life, the pitcher re-created his story as it suited him; his largely fanciful account of his career in Lawrence Ritter's Glory of Their Times (1966) was largely responsible for his election to the Hall of Fame in 1971. This book gives for the first time the true story of one of the most colorful and controversial baseball players of the century.
