Gulliver Travels by Justin Luke Zirilli: “A steamy, dramatic, romantic out-of-control romp through gay Manhattan, this novel follows the story of gorgeous, gay, twenty-something Angelino Gulliver Leverenz as he tries to re-start his life in the city that never sleeps (alone, at least).” (May 2011)

Ambersley by Amy Atwell: “This novel chronicles the adventures of Johanna, orphaned as a child, raised by the servants on a ducal estate, until her true identity is revealed and she is forced to take her place in Regency society as a highly-sought heiress.” (June 2011)

The Joke’s On Me! by Laurie Boris: “When a mudslide plummets her hopes, her home, and her entire collection of impractical footwear into the Pacific, former actress and stand-up comic Frankie Goldberg takes the only possession she has left – a cherry red Corvette convertible – and drives east to her family’s bed and breakfast in Woodstock, New York. This begins a journey into the family she left behind, the family she joked about in her act. But the joke’s on Frankie. While she was doing impressions of her slightly menopausal Jewish mother and her sister the serial divorcee, her family was slowly leaving her. And maybe that joke is just too new to be funny. Travel along with fearless Frankie as she puzzles through that eternal dilemma of coming back home to find that nothing is where you left it.” (June 2011)
