When I opened my eyes this morning I thought to myself, “Today is going to be a productive day! I’m feeling motivated!” For some crazy reason, I woke up ready to go. Then I started to get out of bed. It was kinda down hill from there. The list of aches and pains was adding up fast. Oh My neck hurts! No problem, I can turn at the waist when needed. Oh, but wait. My lower back hurts. Fine! I will use my feet to turn. Left elbow is giving me a bit of trouble, but my right elbow seems fine. GREAT!!! We are back on track. I can turn with my feet and use my right arm. It’s going to be a great day! What’s that stingy feeling??? Oh… my sunburn. I’m OUT! Back to bed.

The Deadbeat Next Door: An Enemies to Lovers Romance (Catalpa Creek Book 1)
by Katharine Sadler
4.1 Stars (7 Reviews)
Genre: Humor & Satire | Women’s Fiction | Romance

FREE for a limited time

One night is all it took to upend my life.
I’ve always played by the rules. I work hard and I take care of the people I love. Sure my furniture hasn’t been updated since the sixties (I inherited it from my parents), I love classic movies, and I prefer sweater sets to mini-skirts, but that doesn’t mean I’m ready to settle down with fifteen cats and accept spinster-hood. I want to fall in love, marry the right guy – an upstanding, risk-averse, good citizen – and have kids. I just keep ending up on dates that go nowhere.

My best friend insists on a night out and invites my unemployed, obnoxious, loud-music-playing, inconveniently gorgeous neighbor, Cody Reynolds.

One drunken mistake of a night gets our small, gossipy town talking about me and Cody.

My boss, who’s had it out for me since she became principal, says a teacher shouldn’t be the subject of rumors about drunken sleepovers, so I lie and tell her Cody’s my fiancé.

Getting him to agree to my plan is easier than it should be, but I’m too happy to have saved my job to care. All I have to do is remember he’s not the right guy for me, and I’ll get through this sham engagement with my sanity intact. Right?

This fun, flirty romance is the first book in The Catalpa Creek series but can absolutely be read as a stand-alone. There is no cliffhanger and there is most definitely an HEA.

Distraught and furious, Christie turns amateur sleuth to find the person who trapped her in the resort so she can exact her revenge.

The perfect summer read for sci-fi fans and whodunit fans alike, these short books are built like the episodes of a TV mini-series telling one big story, the first two ending in cliffhangers and the third ending the tale conclusively.

Well, Doc, It Seemed Like a Good Idea At The Time!: The Unexpected Adventures of a Trauma Surgeon
by J. Paul Waymack
4.3 Stars (371 Reviews)
Genre: Medical eBooks | Humor & Entertainment

FREE for a limited time

In 1976, Paul Waymack began chronicling his experience as a third-year medical student, and for the next 20 years, he kept a journal filled with crazy stories of unusual patients, maladies, and international espionage. Some of them, he’s the first to admit, seem unbelievable–like chasing a naked patient around the ER parking lot in the middle of the night… or constructing a horse sling for a 700-pound patient… or treating a patient who swallowed a cigarette lighter… or serving as a major in the U.S. Army Medical Corps during the Cold War, on orders of the president and with a KGB agent hot on his tail in the Soviet Union. In his wildest dreams, Dr. Waymack could never have imagined most of what he experienced as a doctor, but these stories are all true. He couldn’t have made them up if he tried.
