What does it mean to be female? Mother, carer, the weaker sex? Think again. In the last few decades a revolution has been brewing in zoology and evolutionary biology. Lucy Cooke introduces us to a riotous cast of animals, and the scientists studying them, that are redefining the female of the species. Meet the female lemurs of Madagascar, our ancient primate cousins that dominate the males of their species physically and politically. Or female albatross couples, hooking up together to raise their chicks in Hawaii.

Eric and Dane Walker have always done everything together. They live together, work together, f--k together. But they’ve never been in love together. The moment the Walker brothers meet Emily Berringer, they know she’s the one. Smart, sexy and adventurous, she is impossible to resist. So when she accidentally stumbles into the illegal drag racing club they’re investigating, it doesn’t take long for her skills behind the wheel, and her soft curvy body, to attract the attention of the sadistic son of a b---h who runs the race and takes what—and who—he wants.

Edward Berringer is a chauffeur, a soon-to-be business owner, and oh, yeah, he’s an ex-con. With the promise of financial backing for his vintage auto garage on the line, Edward has no time for dating, but when months of flirting with Karen Walker finally culminates in a scorching hot kiss, he’ll make the f------g time. After all, the manager of his favorite bookshop is everything he wants in a woman: smart, sassy, and a total badass. Who also happens to come from a family of cops. Awkward.

Finally the time has arrived for Luke to exact his revenge and he has all of his pieces in place—except one. To take his enemy down he’ll need the help of her niece, Claire Morse, the shy, curvy beauty he’s fantasized about for years. But she’s not the girl she used to be. To ensure her cooperation, Luke holds the lease to her bookshop over her head. And should her cooperation also involve pretending to be his girlfriend and participating in some very public displays of affection… perfect.

Jax and Winter pursue the mysterious body snatcher while dealing with their increasingly complicated relationship.

Winter would do anything for the young man of the house, and that includes defending him from a cruel, manipulative borderline sociopathic blonde. She understands how young love can be, hormones at an all-time high, impulse control at an all-time low. But she also understands the pain of a broken heart and refuses to watch him go through it. Lacking any other option and clearly incapable of doing nothing, Winter sets out to distract Jackson from his evil girlfriend. With the help of her best friend Molly, Winter devises a simple plan, with the perfect bait—two luscious older women.
