Wedding bells are ringing. Let the gunslinging begin! Bo Creel and Scratch Morton are mighty proud. They managed to deliver five mail-order brides to the New Mexico mining town of Silverhill in one piece. The town is so grateful, they want to make Bo their marshal and Scratch his deputy. Bo and Scratch are happy to accept the job-and even happier to attend the weddings of the fine young women they brought here . . . Cecelia has two young suitors-a well-off rancher and a low-born miner-but but one of them is not what he seems. Tomboyish Rose has gotten herself roped into a cow-rustling scheme-with the wild young buck who's stolen her heart. Luella has a not-so-secret admirerer of her own, a former journalist who's making headlines-with a gang of Mexican bandits.

By Pullen, M J
At thirty-three, Suzanne Hamilton has no regrets. A successful event planner with a swanky condo in a hot Atlanta neighborhood, she's got a close group of friends and a list of men a mile long who would happily bend over backwards to win her heart. Plus, she's just landed the event that will take her career to the next level. Then a freak accident changes everything. Humiliated, with her career in tatters, Suzanne's lost her business not to mention her self-respect. She's managed, however, to retain the surprising support of her newest celebrity client: the sexy country music star, Dylan Burke. Against her better judgment, but without any better offers, Suzanne agrees to plan a wedding for one of the Burke sisters. But when she comes to realize her freak accident was anything but, her catalog of past relationships turns into a list of suspects and Suzanne must question everything - her career, her friendships, and most acutely, her own dating rules.

How to Be an Antiracist
By Kendi, Ibram X.
Antiracism is a transformative concept that reorients and reenergizes the conversation about racism - and, even more fundamentally, points us toward liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. At its core, racism is a powerful system that creates false hierarchies of human value; its warped logic extends beyond race, from the way we regard people of different ethnicities or skin colors to the way we treat people of different sexes, gender identities, and body types. Racism intersects with class and culture and geography and even changes the way we see and value ourselves. In How to Be an Antiracist, Kendi takes readers through a widening circle of antiracist ideas - from the most basic concepts to visionary possibilities - that will help readers see all forms of racism clearly, understand their poisonous consequences, and work to oppose them in our systems and in ourselves.
