Book Description

A Trace of Pet Glitter By: Theresa Nagy Why, oh why would someone break into Pretty Pets Groomer? That’s what owner Veranne and the police officers she calls for help are wondering. In addition to noticing that the bad guys were definitely searching for something specific, Officer Nick Mount also picks up on an attraction between him and Veranne. Though it’s odd timing, Nick quickly asks Veranne out to dinner, and since the only man in her life is her dog, Comet, she says yes. But there’s still a mystery to solve, and everyone, from Nick’s partner to his cousin to even Comet offers assistance. Perhaps looking into the building’s history will lend some insight. You’ll have to read A Trace of Pet Glitter to find out.

Book Description

A teenage fairy contends with the consequences of war in this coming-of-age fantasy by the award-winning author of Teeth and Not Otherwise Specified. Sixteen-year-old Beckan and her friends are the only fairies brave enough to stay in Ferrum when war breaks out. Now there is tension between the immortal fairies, the subterranean gnomes, and the mysterious tightropers who arrived to liberate the fairies. But when Beckan’s clan is forced to venture into the gnome underworld to survive, they find themselves tentatively forming unlikely friendships and making sacrifices they couldn’t have imagined. As danger mounts, Beckan finds herself caught between her loyalty to her friends, her desire for peace, and a love she never expected. This stunning, lyrical fantasy is a powerful exploration of what makes a family, what justifies a war, and what it means to truly love. Praise for A History of Glitter and Blood “With Ferrum, Moskowitz has built a vividly gritty fairy realm and populated it with a richly diverse cast of characters. . . . This novel of friendship, love, and fighting for one’s beliefs should find a place among fans of the modern fairy story.” —Kirkus Reviews “Reminiscent of Holly Black and Laini Taylor, this gritty fantasy/war story is also an exploration of love in many forms . . . and creating a family of choice.” —The Horn Book Magazine “The author’s talent is evident as she ambitiously tackles complex themes of violence, sexual awakening, politics, and even infertility.” —School Library Journal “Thick, sultry, lyrical language builds a strong sense of atmosphere . . . [in] this rich, off-kilter snarl of a story.” —Booklist “Gritty, intense, sensational, and moving.” —Fresh Fiction

Book Description

A workplace flirtation leads to something more in this New Jersey–set romance in the series that gives each state a love story to call its own. As one of the few female “cameramen” in the TV business, Jersey girl Petra “Pet” Wallis works hard to fit in on set. But as much as she tries to keep her cool, she can’t help butting heads with her boss, Dane Kingston. The first time she met Dane, the hotshot producer/director mistook Pet for someone’s girlfriend and chewed her out for messing with expensive equipment. Pet quickly corrected his error, but the two have had it out for each other ever since. Now, Pet is working for Dane again, this time on a high-profile special starring the singing sex goddess, Ruby Gale. Before shooting even starts, Dane warns Pet to make sure she doesn’t stir up trouble. Pet has always been careful, but Dane gets under her skin in a way she just can’t explain. And as the production unfolds, it gets tougher and tougher for Pet to behave like she’s just one of the boys.
