Book
1106 Grand Boulevard
by Betty Dravis
." . . The dramatized, fictional story of the author's sister wins the prize for the most hair-raising soap opera that I have ever read. The 64-year-spanning story . . . with a beautiful woman in the lead (takes readers) from one glamorous location and wealthy man to another with hypnotic speed in order to cram in the entire tale of lust, power, money, and the search for true love." -- Paul Kyriazi, Hollywood movie director.

Although this is her first homicide assignment, it does not take Faydra long to decide the accused man is innocent. Someone wants her investigation to quietly disappear, but Faydra is determined to clear the accused man's name, discover why she has been made an accessory to a cover up, and find out who is responsible. But she will need all her wits about her to unravel the intricate web of lies and deception that stand between her and the answers she seeks. Faydra's quest for the truth launches her on a heart-pounding voyage across the world in a desperate race against time. Along the way, she will contend with the murky backwaters of governmental dirty deals and international intrigue, follow every lead, and risk her life in a bid to halt a catastrophic conflict that has three nations on the brink of war.

Book
Azúcar!
by Alan Cambeira
AZUCAR! The Story of Sugar is a fictional novel that offers a gripping testimony to the unmasked brutality and decay of daily life on a contemporary Caribbean sugarcane plantation, Esperanza Dulce. Azucar, the intelligent and beautiful young girl, is the central character, but the omnipresent protagonist is her namesake, "azucar" -- sugar itself. Azucar?s story is a complex and hauntingly atmospheric tale of sustained intrigue, murder, revenge, forbidden love, and an unnerving journey into the mystical spirit world of Caribbean ritual. Even after Azucar?s fiercely determined grandmother arranges for her to emigrate to Canada -- with a most unlikely couple-- where she is dramatically transformed, she is still not completely free from the hypnotic pull of the distant Caribbean plantation. Azucar meets and falls in love with Lucien, whose own mysterious history shockingly brings them both back to Esperanza Dulce to confront the terrifying ghosts of an unknowingly shared past.
Book
Bjoyfl
by Lynn Barry
Bjoyfl is a humorous quirky tale about the lessons an older student learns inside and outside the walls of lecture halls. Her pursuit of happiness seems more like a course in frustration 101, or a well- researched paper on relationships that make you feel like screaming or tearing your hair out. Do any of us ever really achieve the inner peace we want to achieve, or are we all just plodding through life with no clue? Explore the seemingly weird path this single woman goes down during her quest to discover what the heck will ever make her happy. Men and women who love Barrys humorous dark novel Puddles will also enjoy Bjoyfl.
