My Viral Valentine

Holiday Hat Trick 1

By: Melanie Ting

Abby’s big break-up just went viral. When Abby Boyko agrees to go on a morning TV show as part of a Valentine’s Day special, she’s in for a big surprise. Instead of promoting their new phone app, her business partner—and boyfriend—breaks up with her on live TV. Then the video goes viral. Now Abby’s lost her relationship, her fledgling business, and her self-esteem. Still reeling from the humiliation, Abby would prefer to stay swaddled in her cozy colourful apartment with her rescue cat, Oscar—but determined to develop a competing app, she arranges a meeting with tech genius, Mason Harrington. From the moment he saw Abby's video, Mason's gentle heart was filled with sympathy for her. He can't believe he's getting a chance to actually help her. Unfortunately, his nervous awkwardness makes their first encounter a complete disaster when he accidentally makes her cry, insults her business idea, and harasses her. But what Mason lacks in suaveness, he makes up for in determination. He's going to apologize and make things right. Can he be the knight in wrinkled Dockers who helps Abby heal her broken heart? My Viral Valentine is the first book in the Holiday Hat Trick trilogy. These romcoms feature three close girlfriends, crazy hijinks in the pursuit of love, and beer league hockey—all set in the wintry capital city of Ottawa. Each story is set around a holiday.

The Devil in Denim

By: Melanie Scott

LIFE JUST THREW HER A CURVEBALL. As the team-owner's daughter, Maggie Jameson grew up in the New York Saints' stadium-glove, cap, hot dogs, and all. Baseball's in her blood, and she's always dreamed of the day when she would lead the Saints to victory herself. That was before her dad had to sell the team to Alex Winters. The fast-talking, fiercely attractive businessman has a baseball pedigree that's distinctly minor league. Maggie wants to hate him but his skills of seduction, however, are off the charts. WILL LOVE BE A HOME RUN? Alex could never have imagined how much this team means to Maggie. He needs her to help show the players that they're still a family...even if he and Maggie are at the verge of exchanging blows. But her fiery determination and gorgeous looks prove irresistible to Alex. And much as he wants to relegate their relationship to the playing field-and get the Saints back in the game-Alex just can't help himself: What he wants to win most is Maggie's heart...in The Devil in Denim by Melanie Scott.

Disturbing Calculations

The Economics of Identity in Postcolonial Southern Literature, 1912-2002

By: Melanie Benson Taylor

In Thomas Wolfe’sLook Homeward, Angel, Margaret Leonard says, “Never mind about algebra here. That’s for poor folks. There’s no need for algebra where two and two make five.” Moments of mathematical reckoning like this pervade twentieth-century southern literature, says Melanie R. Benson. In fiction by a large, diverse group of authors, including William Faulkner, Anita Loos, William Attaway, Dorothy Allison, and Lan Cao, Benson identifies a calculation-obsessed, anxiety-ridden discourse in which numbers are employed to determine social and racial hierarchies and establish individual worth and identity. This “narcissistic fetish of number” speaks to a tangle of desires and denials rooted in the history of the South, capitalism, and colonialism. No one evades participation in these “disturbing equations,” says Benson, wherein longing for increase, accumulation, and superiority collides with repudiation of the means by which material wealth is attained. Writers from marginalized groups--including African Americans, Native Americans, women, immigrants, and the poor--have deeply internalized and co-opted methods and tropes of the master narrative even as they have struggled to wield new voices unmarked by the discourse of the colonizer. Having nominally emerged from slavery’s legacy, the South is now situated in the agonized space between free market capitalism and social progressivism. Elite southerners work to distance themselves from capitalism’s dehumanizing mechanisms, while the marginalized yearn to realize the uniquely American narrative of accumulation and ascent. The fetish of numbers emerges to signify the futility of both.
