First kiss at Christmas an Off season romance / by McClain, Lee Tobin,author.;

First kiss at Christmas -- Secrets of summerFirst kiss at Christmas: Not many women still have "first kiss" on their Christmas list, but somehow Kayla Harris is permanently in the friend zone with men. So when veteran Tony DeNunzio shows up in her preschool classroom with his nephew, Jax, her focus is solely on helping the troubled little boy adjust. But as Tony takes on a volunteer role at the school, she can't help noticing his softer side is as appealing as his rugged male presence. Tony will do anything to make Jax's first Christmas without his mom a happy one. And that includes spending more time than is typical with the teacher who's drawn Jax out of his shell. Beautiful and kindhearted, Kayla makes Tony long for family and a happiness he doesn't think he deserves. But with the magic of Christmas in the air, a first kiss might lead them both to a forever love.Secrets of summer: Meg Harris loves living in picturesque Pleasant Shores, though the summer rental next door sometimes means noisy neighbors. She's shocked to discover that the newest occupant is Finn O'Conner, her late husband's business lawyer and her onetime love. Turns out Finn secretly writes bestselling thrillers under an alias. Their spark quickly flares again, but Meg has seen her dreams derailed by a man before. Though Meg's warmth inspires him to be honest, there's one painful truth about Meg's husband that Finn can't reveal. He doesn't want to get involved while keeping this secret--or shatter her illusions about the past. But what he and Meg are building could be much more than just a summer romance, if they're willing to trust in this brand-new chapter.

Body language : writers on identity, physicality, and making space for ourselves / by Chung, Nicole,editor,author of introduction.; Ortile, Matt,editor,author of introduction.;

"A kaleidoscopic anthology of essays published by Catapult magazine about the stories our bodies tell, and how we move within--and against--expectations of race, gender, health, and ability. Bodies are serious, irreverent, sexy, fragile, strong, political, and inseparable from our experiences and identities as human beings. Pushing the dialogue and confronting monolithic myths, this collection of essays tackles topics like weight, disability, desire, fertility, illness, and the embodied experience of race in deep, challenging ways. Selected from the archives of Catapult magazine, the essays in Body Language affirm and challenge the personal and political conversations around human bodies from the perspectives of thirty writers diverse in race, age, gender, size, sexuality, health, ability, geography, and class--a brilliant group probing and speaking their own truths about their bodies and identities, refusing to submit to others' expectations about how their bodies should look, function, and behave. Covering a wide range of experiences--from art modeling as a Black woman to nostalgia for a brutalizing high school sport, from the frightening upheaval of cancer diagnoses to the small beauties of funeral sex--this collection is intelligent, sensitive, and unflinchingly candid. Through the power of personal narratives, as told by writers at all stages of their careers, Body Language reflects the many ways in which we understand and inhabit our bodies. Featuring essays by A.E. Osworth, Andrea Ruggirello, Aricka Foreman, Austin Gilkeson, Bassey Ikpi, Bryan Washington, Callum Angus, Destiny O. Birdsong, Eloghosa Osunde, Forsyth Harmon, Gabrielle Bellot, Haley Houseman, Hannah Walhout, Jenny Tinghui Zhang, Jess Zimmerman, Kaila Philo, Karissa Chen, Kayla Whaley, Maggie Tokuda-Hall, Marcos Gonsalez, Marisa Crane, Melissa Hung, Natalie Lima, Nina Riggs, Rachel Charlene Lewis, Ross Showalter, s.e. smith, Sarah McEachern, Taylor Harris, and Toni Jensen."--
