I grew up in a family of five that went on numerous road trips. While traveling we needed ways to entertain ourselves. One of the family favorites was "punch bug ." I thought it would be great to put the rules into book form so that other families could use them to make their family road trips more enjoyable. The book contains the rules in large easy to read print form accompanied by a visual copy of each vehicle used. Our book is small and therefore very convenient to carry with you or have handy in the vehicle. The large type print makes it easy to read while traveling not only for adults but also for children. Along with the visuals it makes the book family friendly. I believe it would be very successful and quickly become a must-have for all.

Life and love are more brutal than the crackled ice of a Rocky Mountain fourteener… That’s what thrill-seeker Kaye Trilby believed, until a deadly avalanche almost swept her from the face of the earth. Now, tackling life and love with her ex-husband isn’t as traumatic as scaling the mountains she once longed for. Or is it? Kaye has loved the brilliant and guarded Samuel Cabral since childhood and, at last, he’s allowed her behind his carefully-cultivated veneer. But so much has changed in the years they lived apart, Kaye worries she may never fully know him. Why is Samuel firmly against becoming a father? Who is this mysterious woman in Mexico, and why is she a secret? While Samuel chases ghosts through the lush hills of Tamaulipas, Kaye chases the woman she once was, up the peaks of Colorado’s gleaming fourteeners. In the end, is it possible Kaye and Samuel are chasing separate futures? With this life-affirming and personal novel, Sarah Latchaw returns with a stunning, multifaceted conclusion to her Hydraulic series. Fourteeners is a grown-up story of first love and second chances.

Not all that glitters is gold Where better to learn that lesson than in the hallowed halls of the gilded Nine Realms Resort and Casino in Las Vegas? Odin, aka Alldickhead, has led me on a merry chase—if you consider foul-mouthed mobster hummingbirds, a bisexual millionaire cross-dresser, and heartbreak to be merry. To be fair, the millionaire is quite merry, but it’s hard to appreciate good drag when you’re about to die. When things can’t get worse, my Aunt Flo pays a visit. I suppose there’s a price for rocking this awesome body, and Ragnarok in my pants is the fee. (Mad respect to those who bleed for seven days and don’t die. Or kill anyone.) Odin remains one step ahead, lobbing unwanted surprises that could destroy the first real friendships I’ve had in centuries and torpedo my romance with the hot AF Gunnar Magnusson, not to mention, obliterate any chance of retrieving my runes. But yours truly isn’t giving up. In fact, I’m laying all my chips on the table. You can’t con a con man, my friends. As Asgard is about to be reminded, they don’t call Loki the trickster god for nothin’. Book 2 in the Asgard Awakening urban fantasy comedy series
