Book Description
Investment banking intern Carina Chen doesn't need any distractions--especially the hot, guitar-playing barista she rooms with for the summer. Free spirit Dylan Jewell appreciates the delightful universe of women who vie for his attention. His goal in life is to do good, make happy coffee, and help the homeless. When Carina moves in, she insists on rules of conduct to quell her instant attraction to Dylan. But when her boss asks her to turn Dylan into a businessman, she can't think of a reason not to take advantage of his hospitality. Their chemistry is white hot, but Dylan refuses to play Carina's game, unable to understand how he can fall in love with a woman who puts profits in front of people. When Carina realizes Dylan isn't budging, she risks all to gain a single night with him. Will her gambit backfire or will Dylan discover Carina's true heart before she runs away with his? Set in Berkeley, California, Whole Latte Love is an opposites-attract romance mixing bluesy rock music, steamy coffee, summer love, and financial shenanigans.

Book Description
“A beautiful and inspiring collection of prayers. A Book of Pagan Prayer is like a breath of fresh air, breathing life into the spiritual aspect of pagan practice.”—Mat Auryn, Patheos Steeped in tradition based on more than a quarter century of research and practice, A Book of Pagan Prayer teaches us to pray in the ways of our ancestors for very modern times and concerns. A unique collection of nearly 500 prayers written to fulfill the needs of contemporary pagans from a variety of traditions, A Book of Pagan Prayer is a book to turn to again and again. First published in 2002, the revisions to this new edition include rearranged chapters and prayers and the addition of two new chapters, all of which make the book easier to use. The chapters are now arranged in an order that follows a ritual, and all the litanies have been moved to their appropriate chapters. Two new chapters--"General Requests and Offerings" and "Travel, Protection, Imprecatory"--combine two types of prayers out of the general "Petitions" into one. Prayers have been labeled with the deities to which they are addressed and arranged in logical order within each chapter. Prayers to new deities have also been added. In addition, a major problem with the first edition has been corrected: prayers for Lughnasadh/Lammas and Midsummer, two of the eight great neopagan holidays, have been added.

Book Description
PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION: "Thanks to Mrs. Kroeber’s simple, supple style, the stories all succeed as stories; they please, engage, move, or divert without depending for their effect on their exotic source."—The New Yorker "The varying but almost always superb story style of these narratives will speak to all."—New York Herald Tribune "This is a jewel of a book."—San Francisco Chronicle "These stories enlarge life. They remind us of Shakespeare and Aeschylus…. That Mrs. Kroeber’s book should generate such thoughts is proof of its power and beauty."—New York Times Book Review
