I am seeing gnomes today. Some have been peeking out from behind trees, others were driving Teslas. It is a sign. A sign that I should be wearing my glasses. I will take it as a sign I need cake. Conveniently it is my oldest baby basset’s 15th birthday today. There will be Gnomes & Cake.

by Lori Wilde
Genre: Romance | Holidays

Hard-driven, corporate lawyer Evan Conner is tasked with accompanying his ailing boss to Kringle, Texas, where his boss plans a lavish party to make amends for his Scrooge-like misdeeds that almost destroyed the quaint little town five years earlier. Dismayed to find a stray dog who’s just had puppies in the house they’ve rented for the event, Evan calls local vet, Chloe Anderson to bail him out.
Chloe is the most charming woman Evan’s met in a very long time, despite her silly Christmas costume and plethora of pet hair on her clothes. He loves her bubbly attitude and bright smiles. But the town is suspicious of Evan and his wily boss, and they warn Chloe that big-city men simply can’t be trusted.
As Evan’s feelings for Kringle and the adorable veterinarian grow, he finds himself yearning for the most perfect Christmas gift of all… Chloe’s love.

by Julia Huni
Genre: Teen & Young Adult
FREE for a limited time
It’s a dirty galaxy and someone has to clean it.
Avoiding the wealthy inhabitants on the upper levels of Station Kelly Kornienko is bot-programmer Triana’s number one rule. Well, number two, right after “eat all the chocolate.”
But when one of her cleaning bots finds a dead body, all the rules go out the airlock. A highly connected security agent interrupts her routine with stories of missing bodies, and Triana can’t ignore him; it’s cooperate or find a new job. A girl has to pay the rent, even on a crappy studio compartment.
Working with a shiny detective beats a shuttle dirt-side, so Triana lends her programming skills to Agent O’Neill’s investigation. Together, they find more victims and evidence of a major cover-up.
It will take all Triana’s technical talents, most of O’Neill’s connections, and some really excellent croissants to stop the murders, save her job, and ultimately, her life.
The Vacuum of Space is the first book in a completed series.

There’s nothing like the scent of freshly baked pie in the kitchen, but the days when baking a homemade pie signaled a special occasion are gone. Many of us look back to that tradition with fondness, remembering those pies as the number one comfort food. Those were the days when mom or grandma had painstakingly prepared a special pie packed with love and deliciousness.
But those who have baked pies from scratch know the rewarding joy that comes with making one. Some say there is something almost spiritual about baking pies. Every bite of homemade pie seems to impart the maker’s love and devotion. This is perhaps why old-fashioned, home-baked pies come with so many warm, fuzzy feelings and memories.
In this cookbook discover the lost art of making a pie from scratch.
First and foremost, the success of pie baking relies on a solid foundation, which is the crust. This cookbook has 7 full-proof pie crust recipes including:
• American Flaky Pie Crust
• Traditional Flaky Pie Crust
• Sucrée Pie Crust
• Brisée Pie Crust
• Sablée Pie Crust
• No-Bake Graham Cracker Crust

When you have the pie crust done, you are ready to prepare the filling, which usually takes 10-15 minutes. It’s always basically stirring the ingredients in a bowl and then pouring the filling into the pie crust. The next step is to bake the pie or chill it in the case of a no-bake pie. The remaining step is of course to share a slice with your loved ones or all by yourself!
