Passions of a Ghost by Sara Mackenzie
He is Lord Reynald de Mortimer, a powerful warrior of the thirteenth
century who defended his castle against his fiercest enemies. Now
Reynald has awakened from a seven-hundred-year sleep to find that his
beloved home has been turned into a modern hotel. Worse, it is host to a
medieval festival! Before Reynald can begin to contemplate his fate, a
stunning beauty comes to his rescue . . .
Amy Fairweather is not your typical damsel. Nor is she in distress. As a former con artist, it'll take more than a breathtaking giant in armor to convince her that he's the Lord Reynald . . . even if he does set Amy's nights ablaze with passion and magic. But then strange, inexplicable things start to happen at the hotel, and she has no choice but to believe that the Ghost has emerged from the shadows of time. And now he must seek redemption by facing his greatest threat . . . with the unquestioning love of one extraordinary woman by his side.

The Litigators by John Grisham
The partners at Finley & Figg—all two of them—often refer to
themselves as “a boutique law firm.” Boutique, as in chic, selective,
and prosperous. They are, of course, none of these things. What they are
is a two-bit operation always in search of their big break, ambulance
chasers who’ve been in the trenches much too long making way too
little. Their specialties, so to speak, are quickie divorces and DUIs,
with the occasional jackpot of an actual car wreck thrown in. After
twenty plus years together, Oscar Finley and Wally Figg bicker like an
old married couple but somehow continue to scratch out a half-decent
living from their seedy bungalow offices in southwest Chicago.
And then change comes their way. More accurately, it stumbles in. David Zinc, a young but already burned-out attorney, walks away from his fast-track career at a fancy downtown firm, goes on a serious bender, and finds himself literally at the doorstep of our boutique firm. Once David sobers up and comes to grips with the fact that he’s suddenly unemployed, any job—even one with Finley & Figg—looks okay to him.
With their new associate on board, F&F is ready to tackle a really big case, a case that could make the partners rich without requiring them to actually practice much law. An extremely popular drug, Krayoxx, the number one cholesterol reducer for the dangerously overweight, produced by Varrick Labs, a giant pharmaceutical company with annual sales of $25 billion, has recently come under fire after several patients taking it have suffered heart attacks. Wally smells money.
A little online research confirms Wally’s suspicions—a huge plaintiffs’ firm in Florida is putting together a class action suit against Varrick. All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of people who have had heart attacks while taking Krayoxx, convince them to become clients, join the class action, and ride along to fame and fortune. With any luck, they won’t even have to enter a courtroom!
It almost seems too good to be true.
And it is.
The Litigators is a tremendously entertaining romp, filled with the kind of courtroom strategies, theatrics, and suspense that have made John Grisham America’s favorite storyteller.

Play Dirty by Sandra Brown
After five long years in federal prison, Griff Burkett is a free
man. But the disgraced Cowboys quarterback can never return to life as
he knew it before he was caught cheating. In a place where football is
practically a religion, Griff committed a cardinal sin, and no one is
forgiving.
Foster Speakman, owner and CEO of SunSouth Airlines, and his wife, Laura, are a golden couple. Successful and wealthy, they lived a charmed life before fate cruelly intervened and denied them the one thing they wanted most -- a child. It's said that money can't buy everything. But it can buy a disgraced football player fresh out of prison and out of prospects.
The job Griff agrees to do for the Speakmans demands secrecy. But he soon finds himself once again in the spotlight of suspicion. An unsolved murder comes back to haunt him in the form of his nemesis, Stanley Rodarte, who has made Griff's destruction his life's mission. While safeguarding his new enterprise, Griff must also protect those around him, especially Laura Speakman, from Rodarte's ruthlessness. Griff stands to gain the highest payoff he could ever imagine, but cashing in on it will require him to forfeit his only chance for redemption...and love.
Griff is now playing a high-stakes game, and at the final whistle, one player will be dead.

Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella
If you've ever paid off one credit card with another, thrown out a bill
before opening it, or convinced yourself that buying at a two-for-one
sale is like making money, then this silly, appealing novel is for you. In the opening pages of Confessions of a Shopaholic,
recent college graduate Rebecca Bloomwood is offered a hefty line of
credit by a London bank. Within a few months, Sophie Kinsella's heroine
has exceeded the limits of this generous offer, and begins furtively to
scan her credit-card bills at work, certain that she couldn't have spent
the reported sums.
In theory anyway, the world of finance shouldn't be a mystery to Rebecca, since she writes for a magazine called Successful Saving. Struggling with her spendthrift impulses, she tries to heed the advice of an expert and appreciate life's cheaper pleasures: parks, museums, and so forth. Yet her first Saturday at the Victoria and Albert Museum strikes her as a waste. Why? There's not a price tag in sight.

In theory anyway, the world of finance shouldn't be a mystery to Rebecca, since she writes for a magazine called Successful Saving. Struggling with her spendthrift impulses, she tries to heed the advice of an expert and appreciate life's cheaper pleasures: parks, museums, and so forth. Yet her first Saturday at the Victoria and Albert Museum strikes her as a waste. Why? There's not a price tag in sight.
It kind of takes the fun out of it, doesn't it? You wander round, just looking at things, and it all gets a bit boring after a while. Whereas if they put price tags on, you'd be far more interested. In fact, I think all museums should put prices on their exhibits. You'd look at a silver chalice or a marble statue or the Mona Lisa or whatever, and admire it for its beauty and historical importance and everything--and then you'd reach for the price tag and gasp, "Hey, look how much this one is!" It would really liven things up.Eventually, Rebecca's uncontrollable shopping and her "imaginative" solutions to her debt attract the attention not only of her bank manager but of handsome Luke Brandon--a multimillionaire PR representative for a finance group frequently covered in Successful Saving. Unlike her opposite number in Bridget Jones's Diary, however, Rebecca actually seems too scattered and spacey to reel in such a successful man. Maybe it's her Denny and George scarf. In any case, Kinsella's debut makes excellent fantasy reading for the long stretches between white sales and appliance specials.

Where Does a Mother Go to Resign by Barbara Johnson (P1)
Where Does a Mother Go to Resign? is the original story of how
Barbara Johnson faced as a wife and mother the crippling of her
husband, the deaths of two sons, and the homosexuality of a third who
disappeared into the gay lifestyle for over eleven years.
At that time, there were no books, no ministries to help Christian families deal with the devastating, painful news the Johnsons faced. But even through their pain, they set out on a personal journey of survival and restoration that included a steady diet of laughter, joy and hope. And through the sharing of their story, thousands of other families have found their own way back to hope and joy and laughter.
Barbara Johnson writes so beautifully: "There is no magic place to go when we face insurmountable problems. There is no never-never land. We may have to live with mountains that will not move, but we can face the inevitable and realize that we have greater reserves and resources that we thought possible - [God] brought me through the deep water without letting me drown. He held me up when my mind and emotions were torn apart by tragedy. He gave me the gift of joy which made it possible to share with others the good things God was going to do for them also."
