(Extra)Ordinary?
Questioning what “makes” a celebrity and how celebrity is controlled, dispersed and received are aspects branching out of (Extra)Ordinary’s debate over celebrities as ordinary/extraordinary. Jade Alexander and Katarzyna Bronk, together with the authors whose chapters make up this inter-disciplinary discussion, not only utilise the existing research on celebrity and fandom, but they also go beyond the often-quoted theorists to engage in multidirectional analyses of what it means to be a celebrity, and what influence they have on the consuming public. The present book provides an avenue for exploring not just what celebrity is as a discursive construction, but also how this involves a complex interplay between celebrities, the media and the audience.

But when she attends her friend's New Year's Eve party, she meets her old flame, Terrell Edmonds. As the clock strikes midnight, Jade can feel her resolve weakening—and her desire kindling— under his piercing gaze. Midnight Wishes Six years ago, Terrell Edmonds lost Jade—the only woman he believes was "the one" for him—by letting her marry the wrong man.

All That Shimmers
Fendi, Christian Louboutin, Alex Perry, Jimmy Choo: with friends like these, who needs fidelity?

But all that glitters ain't necessarily gold, and when her husband's eyes start wandering, Jade is one yummy mummy who won't take it lying down. As fashion replaces passion and her material-girl life starts crashing like an unhealthy stockmarket, Jade is faced with a most modern dilemma: Overlook the betrayals and keep her luxurious lifestyle? Or start over, alone and broke, but with dignity? Street-smart, sassy and sexy as hell, All that Shimmers is the true story of extravagant love gone into liquidation. Will Jade capitulate and make the ultimate exchange? Or is she brave enough to see that self-respect and honesty shimmer more brightly than wealth?
Kidnapped

To be a Rehab Guard requires very specific qualifications and years of specialized training. It is brutal, dangerous, and often thankless job—and there is nowhere else Sean would rather be. It keeps him safe, his deadly secret safely buried, and gives him a life as close to normal as he will ever come. Until the day new prisoner arrives, a genetically-engineered Draconis with the ability to 'match' to a suitable magics-capable individual and boost his power. Convicted of murder, he is sentenced to Rehab for life, and no one has ever escaped from Rehab.
