Angel Thief by Jenny Schwartz: “She’s breaking the rules. Again. An archivist in the heavenly library, Sara must follow protocol when it comes to curating the knowledge of the universe. But “liberating” an ancient text from the collection of a human—an Australian drug lord—could save a boy’s life.” (November 2010)

Monogamy Sucks by George Pappas: “More than a little curious, Jake finds himself attracted to the hidden, taboo world of swingers where singles and couples nightly shed their inhibitions swapping partners, staging orgies at wild sex parties and secret hotel meetings. Take a walk on the wild side of erotica with Jake where he discovers how the sexually daring lives.” (December 2010)

Crossing the Heart of Africa: An Odyssey of Love and Adventure by Julian Smith: “Portland, Oregon-based journalist Julian Smith knew that Laura, his girlfriend of six years, was The One. Yet at 35, the award-winning travel and science writer couldn’t even commit to staying in one time zone for long, much less settling down. Even when he proposed on Valentine’s Day, 2007, and she said yes, he still wondered: was he really ready to get married? Julian came up with a crazy-sounding plan: to test himself and face his fears of a lifetime commitment, he would retrace the 4,500-mile route of Ewart “the Leopard” Grogan, a legendary 19th-century British explorer who trekked the length of Africa for the love of a woman.” (December 2010)
