After being publicly humiliated in the worst possible way, New York socialite and Magnolia Hotel heiress, Madison Clark, pours out her woes to a psychic. She’s given a “to-go” bag of calming tea that promises rest and relaxation, but instead Madison wakes up in an unfamiliar crappy apartment with a wallet full of maxed-out credit cards and a bank account with a zero balance. Convinced she’s the victim of identity theft, Madison returns to the psychic’s shop, only to learn the universe – and that freaking cosmic tea – is responsible for the change. She is now living the (poor) life, and the only way to get her (rich) life back is by righting some wrongs, starting with a reconciliation with her estranged father, who is inconveniently about to get married in Montana. Cue up the good times, because even though she’s got nothing to wear and a pathetically small amount of bills in her wallet, she has to be at the wedding because there’s no time to waste. But things get even more upside-down when she lands in Montana and is picked up from the airport by the annoyingly attractive Jax, who seems to loathe her at first sight. He’s expecting the party girl he’s seen all over social media, and is taken aback when Madison bounces out of the airport sporting neon overalls and fishing boots. In addition to the many roadblocks of her new life, Madison suddenly finds herself outrunning cows, and competing in beer-chugging competitions while attempting parental bonding. The more time she spends in Montana, and the more time she spends with Jax, the more she questions her “good life”. Just when things are starting to become clear someone shows up unexpectedly, and all bets are off.

The well-known questions such as What, How and, above all, Why are given some unexpected and enchanted answers in the volume III of the book A Little Frog’s Heart. These answers are delivered by the original characters we got used to celebrating along the story. The relationship between a grandfather and his grandson is being brought in a warm light destined to open up our hearts for the harmonies of this volume, The Stellar Waltz of Life. In the glittering bunch of the stories which interweave and overflow from each one to the others, as a modern version of the series On Thousand and One Nights, one could discern two mythological episodes, somehow a remnant of a popular Christianity magnificently adapted for a contemporaneous audience, of a genuine originality, which sheds their light as if they were some big rounded regal grapes, even if they are in a way ‘removed’ from the bunch and ‘spread’ all over the volume.

English teacher by day turned hostess by night.

Life overseas will all be a breeze, easy money, and fun, right? WRONG. Not only does living abroad come with its share of challenges, it also comes with culture shock and danger as her unresolved substance abuse problems and craving for excitement get her into trouble and put a strain on her relationship. Will it survive? Her brushes with the underworld place her in life-threatening situations that can get her chopped up and dumped into the East Sea, because somewhere along the way, she has made enemies uninterested in fun and games! Based on and a true story and real-life events

It's said that how we eat is reflective of our appetite in bed. Food and sex: two universal experiences that can easily become addictive and all consuming. You don't need to look far—The Food Network, billboards, TV spots, to name just a few—to witness firsthand the explosive combination of food and sex. In Sex and Bacon: Why I Love Things That Are Very, Very Bad for Me, Sarah Katherine Lewis is a seductress whose observations about the interplay between food and sex are unusually delightful, sometimes raunchy, and always absorbing. Sex and Bacon is a unique type of lovefest, and Lewis is not your run-of-the-mill food writer. A lusty eater who's spent the better part of her adult life as a sex worker, Lewis is as reckless as she is adventurous. She writes of eating whale and bone marrow as challenges she was incapable of resisting. With chapters that hone in on the categorically simple—fat, sugar, meat—Lewis infuses even the most quotidian meals and food memories with sensual observations and decadence worthy of savoring. Sex and Bacon is exuberant-a celebration that honors the rawness and base needs that are central to our experiences of both food and sex.
