Bah! Humbug! Some people are better off single

For Geoffrey Monroe, January can’t come too soon. His Scrooge isn’t wowing anyone on Broadway this Christmas. And his daughter has resolved to marry him off. But once the holidays are through, he’ll be free to resume his footloose lifestyle.

Then Toni Piccolo moves in across the street. It turns out the passionate young widow has an impossible daughter of her own.

Geoffrey gets an idea. They’ll teach their children not to meddle. Soon, he’s giving his best performance yet, as a man in love and ready to settle down.

Can he convince himself that it’s only an act?

You can’t go home again …

Vicky Hurley Walker is back in the New York neighborhood of her youth. She's come home with her boys to make a new start.

Vicky’s bounced back from sorrow before. This time will be no different. Besides, her sister needs her help.

… Or can you?

Margy Hurley also returns to the old neighborhood—and to the place where she got her start—to open her dream restaurant. She'll make it a place that will feel like home.

If only it weren’t for her sister. Vicky has always stolen what's Margy’s. But Margy isn't going to let that happen this time.

 It’s all over the neighborhood…

 Al Romano may not be the guy who gets the girl, but he is the reporter who gets the story. Now he’s got hold of one that’s sure to restart his career.

When Al turns up in the old neighborhood to unearth details of the night Vicky's world blew up, things get complicated. Soon Vicky's cooking up a plan to reunite former sweethearts Al and Margy. But once Al follows his own heart, his reputation—not to mention the sisters’ fragile bond—are on the line.

Chuck Palahniuk showed himself to be his generation’s most visionary satirist in this, his first book. Fight Club’s estranged narrator leaves his lackluster job when he comes under the thrall of Tyler Durden, an enigmatic young man who holds secret after-hours boxing matches in the basement of bars. There, two men fight "as long as they have to." This is a gloriously original work that exposes the darkness at the core of our modern world.

Only two things are capable of sating my hunger: racing and women.

I’m a devil behind the wheel, and there isn’t another man in New York City who can beat me.

Nor any dumb enough to try.

But there was a woman who could. My ex-wife, Evie.

And she did. Messed me up real good.

Thanks to her, I gave up my dream of racing, but I can’t run from fate forever.

The evil bastards at her side have taken over the underground racing scene, but I’m diving back in deep.

With my focus on the road, the last thing I need is a distraction, but that’s just what Laina is.

My best friend’s little sister feels off limits, until she isn’t.

Perfect curves and a smile that could melt hearts, this woman has me wanting to say yes from the start.

She’s relentless and drives me mad with the desire to be bad one more time—just for her.

I might be outracing demons, but I’m not running from anything.

Not me. Not ever again.
