    $3.99

    A school teacher determined to remake her life. A criminal whose fateful decision lands them in a desperate race for survival. Together, they must face brutal enemies amid an undeniable attraction in this sizzling romantic suspense.

    Ending a dangerous marriage, Emma flees to the arms of her family, determined to start over. The small town of Bertram in the New Mexico desert could provide solace to heal her wounded heart. In such a small, boring place, there is not much chance of complicated entanglements. That is until a killer kidnaps her.

    Nic, the Scorpion, leads a dangerous life. Working as an enforcer for a powerful drug lord, he has done things that stain his soul. He also has a secret he is desperate to protect in order to bring down a powerful enemy. Double-crossed and wounded, he goes on the run, dragging along an innocent woman to keep her, and his secret, safe.

    Forced together by circumstance, two hurting people fight their growing attraction while avoiding capture by the good guys and the bad. Emma struggles to trust her instincts while Nic is convinced he’s too far gone to deserve someone like her. Both their courage and their desire will be tested in the desert.

    If you like spicy romance mixed with non-stop action, you’ll enjoy DESERT COURAGE!

  • Desert Giant: The World of the Saguaro Cactus (T

    $17.79

    A venerable saguaro cactus stands like a statue in the hot desert landscape, its armlike branches reaching fifty feet into the air. From a distance it appears to be completely still and solitary–but appearances can be deceptive. In fact, this giant tree of the desert is alive with activity. Its spiny trunk and branches are home to a surprising number of animals, and its flowers and fruit feed many desert dwellers.
    Gila woodpeckers and miniature elf owls make their homes inside the saguaro’s trunk. Long-nosed bats and fluttering white doves drink the nectar from its showy white flowers. People also play a role in the saguaro’s story: each year the Tohono O’odham Indians gather its sweet fruit in a centuries-old harvest ritual.
    In this first volume of Sierra Club Books’ Tree Tales series, a simple, easy-to-read text and appealing drawings document the life cycle of this amazing cactus tree and the creatures it helps to support. Readers will come away with a better understanding of and a lasting respect for this accomodating giant of the desert.

  • Desert Star (Renée Ballard Book 5)

    $11.99

    LAPD detective Renée Ballard and Harry Bosch team up to hunt the brutal killer who is Bosch’s “white whale”—a man responsible for the murder of an entire family.

    A year has passed since LAPD detective Renée Ballard quit the force in the face of misogyny, demoralization, and endless red tape. But after the chief of police himself tells her she can write her own ticket within the department, Ballard takes back her badge, leaving “the Late Show” to rebuild and lead the cold case unit at the elite Robbery-Homicide Division.

    For years, Harry Bosch has been working a case that haunts him—the murder of an entire family by a psychopath who still walks free. Ballard makes Bosch an offer: come volunteer as an investigator in her new Open-Unsolved Unit, and he can pursue his “white whale” with the resources of the LAPD behind him.

    First priority for Ballard is to clear the unsolved rape and murder of a sixteen-year-old girl. The decades-old case is essential to the councilman who supported re-forming the unit, and who could shutter it again—the victim was his sister. When Ballard gets a “cold hit” connecting the killing to a similar crime, proving that a serial predator has been at work in the city for years, the political pressure has never been higher. To keep momentum going, she has to pull Bosch off his own investigation, the case that is the consummation of his lifelong mission.

    The two must put aside old resentments and new tensions to run to ground not one but two dangerous killers who have operated with brash impunity. In what may be his most gripping and profoundly moving book yet, Michael Connelly shows once again why he has been dubbed “one of the greatest crime writers of all time” (Ryan Steck, Crimereads).

  • The Colorful Dry Garden: Over 100 Flowers and Vi

    $10.99

    A design-focused, easy-to-use guide to colorful, eye-catching foliage and flowers for your whole yard, from the ground plane to the canopy, for homeowners and landscapers faced with replacing thirsty gardens in California and other dry regions in the Western US.

    If readers must reluctantly remove water-guzzling favorites from the garden, they need equally beautiful substitutes! This book is a visual treat that supports the transition to dry gardening by proving that gardeners can have all the gorgeous color and flowers they had in the past using just a fraction of the water.

    Maureen Gilmer provides chapters on design categories of plants—flowering shrubs, the ground plain, eye-catching accents, ephemeral flowers, perennials for color, animated plants and fine textures, canopy, and edibles—with profiles for each plant plus background info and top picks lists.

    The Colorful Dry Garden is unique because it features only bold plants that are also heavy bloomers despite heat and limited water. It also features more than just Western native plants by including varieties from the world’s driest climates.

    Resorting to a dull, monochromatic modern look is not necessary when coping with drought. I hope this book helps you bring your garden alive with flowers and color, with birds and butterflies, so that it changes with the seasons and yet asks for few resources.

    It’s time to reconsider some drought-loving plants you may already know and discover some new ones.
