Lethal in a Kilt


Book Description

I hate Logan MacTaggart. He's rude, crude, and the last man on earth I'd ever get involved with. But every filthy thing he says makes me want to rip his clothes off. Or smack him. Sometimes both. Logan tempts me to do naughty things in inappropriate places, and I can't resist giving in. Serena Carpenter is a bitch. Every time she slaps me and calls me disgusting, I want to drag her into the nearest dark corner and show her exactly how rude I can be. The last thing I want is a relationship. Once I seduce her, I'll walk away. After all, an ex-spy doesn't get a happy ending. If Logan and I didn't work together, maybe we could stay away from each other. But I see him every day, and the more I see him the more I crave that infuriating man. It's not fair for a jerk to be so hot and irresistible. We're completely wrong for each other. But maybe… Lethal in a Kilt is the seventh book in the award-winning, bestselling Hot Scots series of contemporary romances. Coming soon in audio, featuring Shane East and Emma Wilder.

Natural Impulse


Book Description

I'm a computer nerd who can't keep a girlfriend, but now I've got the best job ever as assistant manager at Au Naturel Naturist Resort. As a naturist—aka nudist—I'm right at home here. Until Mara Severins shows up. She's wicked hot, but the girl thinks "naturist" means birdwatching, and when she catches her first glimpse of all the naked guests here, she freaks out. What else can I do? My job, that's what. I take care of the guests, which means I have to babysit Mara. It would help if I didn't develop an, um, embarrassing condition every time I see her. She's an uptight city girl at a rural nudist resort, so yeah… Mission control, we've got a problem. Her wacky hang-ups drive me almost as crazy as her sexy body does. Then she kisses me. Then I kiss her. And then things start to get out of hand, and the line between assistant manager and guest gets awfully blurry. Natural Impulse is the second book in the Au Naturel Trilogy of romantic comedies from Anna Durand, bestselling author of the Hot Scots series.

The British Bastard


Book Description

When a sweet Scot meets a hot Brit with a mysterious past, can she resist the irresistible? I never let anyone into my life, much less my heart. Teaching college students keeps me busy, and the occasional anonymous shag satisfies my urges. But then a bonnie Scots lass walks into my world, and everything changes. I shouldn't be with Catriona MacTaggart. She awakens something in me that needs to stay buried. I should keep away, but I can't do it. Seducing her is a mistake. Living with her might be the worst disaster of all. The moment I saw Alex Thorne, I knew I wanted to be with him. No other man has ever made me feel so alive and so confused at the same time. The harder I try to get to know him, the further he pulls away. But something about him keeps me coming back for more—until the day catastrophe strikes, and I finally have no choice but to leave him. The British Bastard wrecked me, but I have the strangest feeling fate isn't done with us yet. The British Bastard is a Hot Scots prequel that reveals the full backstory of Alex and Catriona, going beyond what's revealed in Irresistible in a Kilt (Hot Scots, Book Eight).

Lethal Rage


Book Description

First in the gritty police series: “In the mold of Joseph Wambaugh . . . Characters that transcend cop-show stereotypes” (Booklist). Jack Warren, a young officer who’s been working in a virtually crime-free area, is now moving into Toronto’s notorious 51 Division. Suddenly, he’s entered a dangerous downtown world where drugs and prostitution are rampant—and he’s immediately thrown into a brutal war against a dealer intent on taking over the city’s trade. Warren soon discovers that no one is safe from the dealer’s quest for domination when the war turns horrifically personal. Working with the division’s elite major-crime unit, Warren learns there is an imperceptible yet enormous difference between the law and justice—and being a police officer and surviving in the 51. “Canadian policeman Pilkey writes from firsthand experience in his gritty procedural debut . . . Charts the stresses the dangerous job puts on Jack’s marriage, the us-against-them mentality that binds patrol cops, the off-duty cop parties to blow off steam, and the way the 51 can change good cops to bad.” —Publishers Weekly “Loaded with insider info and a cop’s-eye view of the city. Devotees of urban cop tales will eat this up.” —The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

After one steamy afternoon in a Scottish hotel room, it's over—again. But we forgot something on that day when we gave in to our mutual lust. Autumn Flowerday left me without explaining why. Now she's back—with a revelation that changes everything. We're having a baby. All we've ever done is argue and shag, but that's not enough. Aye, the sex is bloody fantastic. But with a child on the way, we need to settle our differences. Maybe we have a chance… Until the entire MacTaggart clan decides to help us out. Bloody hell.

Cocaine


Book Description

The contributors to Cocaine analyze the contemporary production, transit, and consumption of cocaine throughout the Americas and the illicit economy's entanglement with local communities. Based on in-depth interviews and archival research, these essays examine how government agents, acting both within and outside the law, and criminal actors seek to manage the flow of illicit drugs to both maintain order and earn profits. Whether discussing the moral economy of coca cultivation in Bolivia, criminal organizations and drug traffickers in Mexico, or the routes cocaine takes as it travels into and through Guatemala, the contributors demonstrate how entire ways of life are built around cocaine commodification. They consider how the authority of state actors is coupled with the self-regulating practices of drug producers, traffickers, and dealers, complicating notions of governance and of the relationships between economic and moral economies. The collection also outlines a more progressive drug policy that acknowledges the important role drugs play in the lives of those at the urban and rural margins. Contributors. Enrique Desmond Arias, Lilian Bobea, Philippe Bourgois, Anthony W. Fontes, Robert Gay, Paul Gootenberg, Romain Le Cour Grandmaison, Thomas Grisaffi, Laurie Kain Hart, Annette Idler, George Karandinos, Fernando Montero, Dennis Rodgers, Taniele Rui, Cyrus Veeser, Autumn Zellers-León
