My original title for this post was going to be “Naughty Picks”. Then I realized that would not be a family friendly sounding title. My little chickie Naughty is on my shoulder while I am picking out the books for this post and she really seemed interested in the selection. She can’t take her eyes off the screen. So here are Naughty’s freebies.
Francesca of Lost Nation

When a mysterious man named Matthew appears in the small Iowa town of Lost Nation, his sudden arrival raises questions about his past.

In spite of her own reservations, Francesca finds herself falling for this brooding pilot but his past looms between the pair and what neither knows is that Sarah, Francesca’s 10-year-old granddaughter, has encountered a stranger of her own … leading to a climatic confrontation that will put her and her grandmother’s life in danger.

Selena’s life isn’t turning out to be the fairy tale she imagined as a kid.
That hope seemed to vanish long ago when her dad kicked her and her mom out of the house.

Things don’t seem too bad, though. Especially when Selena gains the attention of the cute neighbor next door. But when her best friend back home in Brooklyn desperately needs her, a secret that’s been hidden from Selena for years is revealed, and when she becomes a target for one of her cousin’s nasty pranks, she finds herself having to face the scars from her past and the memories that come along with them.

Life Behind: A memoir from the open road through the Wild West
Regan Kline
Genre: Science & Math | Biographies & Memoirs
FREE for a limited time
Ever wanted to just pick up and go? So what stopped you?
In the late spring of 2008, suddenly devoid of my job, my long-term girlfriend, and quite possibly my faith in humanity, I took to the road as a form of self-prescribed therapy.
Equipped only with what I could fit in the back of my small SUV, I made my way across 3,800 miles of the beautiful West and Pacific Northwest, sleeping mostly in my truck, fly fishing, and communing with both nature and locals alike. My trials along the way ranged from such trivial things as cavorting with small-town girls or figuring out where my next shower would come from, to the much more profound issues of dealing with lost love and coming to terms with the fact that sooner or later, like it or not, I was going to have to “grow up.”
This memoir is a recount of my search for the sort of elusive guidance that can only be found in clear high mountain trout streams and at the bottom of craft beers in smoky dive bars.
