A Tempestuous Temptation Aggie is infuriated that she is being accused as a fortune–hunter by billionaire Luiz Diaz...and now she is snowbound with the arrogant Brazilian! As they seek shelter from the snowstorm, Luiz does nothing to dismiss Aggie's initial opinion of him. Yes, he's unbearably arrogant...and as irresistible as he thinks he is! Despite his merciless reputation, it seems she's not as immune to his legendary lethal charm as she'd hoped... The Notorious Gabriel Diaz The last time Gabriel heard the word no was when Lucy Robins rejected his skilled advances – a moment that is still etched on his bruised ego! Now, Lucy desperately needs to help her family. Gabriel strikes a deal: Lucy's virginity! But he didn't expect that their night together would leave him hooked... The Truth Behind His Touch Caroline Rossi steps into Giancarlo de Vito's sleek offices feeling plain...and virtually invisible! Giancarlo's ruthless ambition got him where he is today, but he hasn't forgotten the past hardships – or his thirst for a revenge only Caroline can help him exact... Used to women doing anything to please him, Giancarlo is confounded by Caroline – she just won't play ball. To seek his vengeance Giancarlo will have to turn on the legendarily irresistible de Vito charm.

Starbucked will be the first book to explore the incredible rise of the Starbucks Corporation and the caffeine-crazy culture that fueled its success. Part Fast Food Nation, part Bobos in Paradise, Starbucked combines investigative heft with witty cultural observation in telling the story of how the coffeehouse movement changed our everyday lives, from our evolving neighborhoods and workplaces to the ways we shop, socialize, and self-medicate. In Starbucked, Taylor Clark provides an objective, meticulously reported look at the volatile issues like gentrification and fair trade that distress activists and coffee zealots alike. Through a cast of characters that includes coffee-wild hippies, business sharks, slackers, Hollywood trendsetters and more, Starbucked explores how America transformed into a nation of coffee gourmets in only a few years, how Starbucks manipulates psyches and social habits to snare loyal customers, and why many of the things we think we know about the coffee commodity chain are false.

The first science fiction course in the American academy was held in the early 1950s. In the sixty years since, science fiction has become a recognized and established literary genre with a significant and growing body of scholarship. The Cambridge History of Science Fiction is a landmark volume as the first authoritative history of the genre. Over forty contributors with diverse and complementary specialties present a history of science fiction across national and genre boundaries, and trace its intellectual and creative roots in the philosophical and fantastic narratives of the ancient past. Science fiction as a literary genre is the central focus of the volume, but fundamental to its story is its non-literary cultural manifestations and influence. Coverage thus includes transmedia manifestations as an integral part of the genre's history, including not only short stories and novels, but also film, art, architecture, music, comics, and interactive media.
