She’s a force to be reckoned with… Marisol Medina is all about the hustle. Reporting for duty with a shiny new business degree, she’s not only the first Medina to go to college, she’s also the knight in shining hoops that literally everyone is counting on to take their struggling family bar and turn it into the profitable taqueria of their dreams. Why? Because tacos and tequila solve everything. Obviously. There’s just one problem. She’s hit a snag. A big, sexy, bearded, six-foot-plus snag. This isn’t how he’d planned on getting her attention… Sy Ransom, owner of Symon Says Sweets, ran out of room in his bakery about two seconds after he opened it. He needs to expand, and putting in an offer for the empty building next door seems like a win-win situation. He’ll be able to double his size without having to leave the location he’s come to love. The building isn’t technically on the market, but he figures it won’t hurt to ask, right? Wrong. He is so wrong. The result…a Mexican standoff. Now locked in a bidding war, his thriving bakery and her family’s struggling taco shop are contracted to cater the town’s most anticipated anniversary shindig. Can they keep things professional or will the oven mitts come off once the lime wedges come out?

There are few modern animated television shows that could survive over a decade and a half and remain as funny... or as stupid... or as sick... or as depraved... today as when they started. Even fewer can claim to cater to “mature” audiences, while their critics complain that everything about the show is immature. And fewer still where, for the first decade or so, one of the main characters was killed off every week. Then returned, no worse for wear, seven days later. That, however, is the world of South Park, and this is a book about that world. A journey through the lives, times, and catastrophes that have established the tiny mountain town of South Park, Colorado, as America's favorite dysfunctional community. A voyage into a universe where Barbra Streisand is reborn as a Japanese monster movie; where Kentucky Fried Chicken is a registered drug; where Canada is forever on a footing for war; and where we discover that even feces love Christmas. From Zebulon Pike to Chef, from Brian Boitano to Mel Gibson, from “Super Best Friends” to South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, it's all covered in South Park FAQ. Featuring A-Z coverage of the all the characters readers have come to know and the stories behind the episodes, it also includes an episode guide and an appendix of all of the songs featured in South Park. Nothing is sacred and nobody is safe. Even physical and emotional disabilities are just another banana skin for someone to slip on, and the term “politically correct” has been translated into “oh good, you're getting annoyed.” It is a place where ... you get the picture. This is not Bambi!

Schooled by the harshness of Djaromir, Warlord Sparx of Fyeir believes women to be a distraction he can’t—and won’t—allow himself. His focus needs to be on the city he rules and their progress into the future, not on coddling a sensitive human female. As warlord, he’ll do his duty and help match his men to their future brides but has no intent in joining their happily mated ranks. Then, he sees Lucy. One glance at the sweet little female and his fate is sealed—whether he wants it to be or not. Burning with the need to claim his tempting mate, Sparx tries to hold strong but can't resist his powerful attraction to the newly arrived, fragile female. He can only hope the risk is worth it in the end. Nicknamed “Lucy Goosey” for her tendency to wreak havoc in almost any situation, Lucy had begun to wonder if her streak of unfortunate catastrophes would ever end. Unlucky at literally everything, she knew a change was needed if she’d ever get what she wanted out of life. Crossing her fingers that Earth was the jinx, Lucy and her best friend take a leap of faith and catch a ride to the distant mining planet advertising for mates. She knew it sounded absolutely bonkers, but she’d give just about anything for a chance to have what seemed to only happen in romance novels. Considering the chaos that normally follows her around, she’s holding her breath in hopes that maybe this time will be different. On the harsh world of Djaromir, surrounded by dangers at literally every step, is it possible that Lucy can feel safe being her normally clumsy self? Will she find her happily-ever-after in the massive arms of the imposing Warlord or will her bad luck mean a one-way ticket home?

A woman on a mission… Petal Jane, PJ to her family, is on the way to rescue her big sister—whether she wants her to or not. Or at least that was the plan her parents had come up with. “Don’t worry,” they assured her. It was supposed to be foolproof. First, sign up for the Djaromir volunteer program. Check. Second, catch a Phaeton spaceship to the distant planet where her sister had disappeared to. Check. Last, grab her sister and get the hell back to Earth before one of the big guys think she’s there to get mated, sexed up, and pregnant like all the other fools she’d arrived with… And that’s where she runs into a snag. He’s more than a little rough around the edges… Shuddre doesn’t talk much—if at all. His penchant for silence, combined with his mountainous size, makes others uncomfortable. Taller and wider than all of his brethren, his bulk is both a blessing and a curse. His massive size and abilities are valuable assets to Gunninng, yet when he’s within the tunnels of the city, he feels suffocated. It’s one of the reasons why he’s determined to answer his warlord’s summons, find out what Gunninng needs, and then get the hell back to the mines as quickly as possible. He never thought there’d be anything to keep him here… Until he saw her.

K’hor, Warlord of Hamuir, was stuck between a rock and hard place… Literally. On Djaromir, a remote and desolate mining planet, K’hor and two fellow warlords rule a rugged, but desperate people. With few females remaining, the miners of Djaromir must find new mates or face extinction. When the opportunity arises to rescue Earth-women kidnapped, K’hor sees a new future for his people. With the new brides under his protection, he hopes that a little time alone with his men will be enough to convince at least some of the women to stay —specifically the one he realizes is his mate.
