I really, really… really want to take the deal. I’ve spent more money on things so ridiculous I’m embarrassed to admit them.” “I sense there’s a ‘but’ coming.” “But… there’s no amount of money that will keep you from falling in love with me.” Amara Riley works for her crush and personal hero, Grayson Davis, a 30's Zuckerberg type CEO of an internet startup called Webster, the story world's equivalent of Facebook.

Grey (Book One)
Aundrea Ascencio - 2017
If black clothing, heavy metal music, and a general apathy toward humanity didn't turn Chantel off, then stalking was definitely a deal-breaker. Chantel's life was perfect before Eric shoved himself into it, and she is desperate to keep it that way. Eric couldn't agree more. Chantel is a risk he's never had the courage to take, and he's built a philosophy on staying away from "her kind". But staying away from her is harder than he counted on, and that is starting to become a problem. Or rather a beautiful disaster waiting to happen, when loving someone is a choice between who you really are and the person she makes you want to be. Grey is an interracial romance between a troubled Caucasian man who is involved in a white supremacist "brotherhood, and an African American woman, who is an honors student and obsessive perfectionist. The story follows the journey of accepting cultural differences, and learning to love for what's within, rather than for what's on the outside. It is also a story about coming of age as a young adult, and establishing one's self-identity in a world where stereotypes, racism, and prejudices warp the perceptions of other people, especially groups that are outside of mainstream American society. Against preexisting stereotypes, the characters fight for the right to define themselves, rather than accept how others choose to define them. This story is not just about race or romance, but raises social questions and values that everyone can relate to, no matter what cultural group they belong to.

Glacier Gal
L. Langdon - 2017
Her graduation from college (the first of her family to do so) is marred by a scornful, cheating boyfriend who dismisses her as unadventurous. There is a kernel of truth to this, she realizes, but it has more to do with the family finances than any lack of interest. Her parents, hearing of this, scraped together the money to provide Gerri with a low-budget adventure: a bus trip across the country to spend a few weeks with her brother, a soldier stationed near Seattle. In this year of 1969, such a trip is not without danger for an unaccompanied young black woman, but she makes it to her brother's Army base unscathed. Her adventure is cut tragically short, however, by his sudden deployment overseas. Stubbornly determined to extend her adventure somehow, Gerri fixes on the idea of seeing a glacier. To this end, and unknown to her parents, she takes a side trip to Juneau, Alaska. There, her inexperience catches up with her and she runs out of money. Her search for a temporary job leads her to a fisherman, Sven Halvorsen. Depending upon whom you talk to, he is either a nice man with a tragic life—or a monster. This job leads her to further adventures—and dangers—beyond anything that she had dreamed. Sven lives a quiet life in a town where many still blame him for his wife's death. Against his better judgment, he hires a persistent, but inexperienced, Black youth as a deckhand. What he got was an attraction which was utterly unexpected. Pursuing this attraction took him to places that he never imagined. He yearns to make a life with her. Can he convince Gerri of this? And can he convince her to uproot her life in the face of hostility from her family and friends?
