Inside Mummy's tummy is a Special Something. What, wonders her little girl could it be? It wriggles and kicks. Could it be a hippopotamus, or a dinosaur, or a cheeky monkey that will tease her when she's trying her best to be good in the car?

Culinary school dropout Callie Giordano never intended to wind up in a small town with a terrible name, but after surviving a serious cycling accident in New York City, she needed a change of pace. At 26, she is now the sole doughnut entrepreneur living in Fly-Debate, Maine. But Fly-Debate isn't just a one-stoplight town deep in lobster country. It's also home to the cast and crew of hit historical heist TV series, Hidden Cove. Beckett Brown, its star, may as well have a resume that says 44, single, and nesty, but between his celebrity status and a reputation for falling too hard and too fast, dating feels impossible. At least until he meets Callie. That Special Something is a high-heat, queer M/F romance featuring large quantities of sugar, bird watching, and more plastic prop lobsters than you can shake a net at.

The money jar that Rosa, Mama, and Grandma filled with their coins will be emptied to buy Rosa whatever she wants for her birthday. But what can Rosa choose that special enough-unless it's a gift they can all enjoy!

A Large Print Romance.

Every Friday is 'special day' in Charlie's class at school, when everybody takes in something special to show the rest of the class. Charlie can never find anything special enough to take, until one day he has to look after his baby sister.
