For fans of Lyssa Kay Adams and Jen DeLuca comes this fresh, funny take on second chances that proves love is anything but trivial. For family-focused Charlotte, the chance to compete on her favorite trivia game show is a dream come true—the prize money could ensure the best care for her aging grandmother. But when she arrives on set, who does she see among the other contestants? Eli, her high school first love, at least until their shattering breakup. He has his own reasons for competing, not least of which is the stress of multiple jobs, college courses, and a father who has had multiple run-ins with the law. When the casting department pairs them on a team, both Charlotte and Eli are determined to grit their teeth and make the best of it. That’s easier said than done, of course, and before long a national audience is breathlessly watching them bicker and air years-old grudges. Far from being angry, the program’s producers are ecstatic—the ratings are positively soaring. As they compete together over several episodes of the show, Charlotte and Eli begin to suspect that old wounds might actually heal. Touring L.A. in their free time has given them the opportunity to get to know each other again—and reawakened feelings that are hard to resist. Until the show’s producers throw a wrench in their hopeful plans that will compromise everything Charlotte and Eli have worked so hard for. Kelly Ohlert’s warm, witty second novel proves that the best thing to know is always your own heart.

Let’s Get Quizzical Book 1 is a collection of thematic research quizzes on a wide variety of subjects. Each page of quiz questions invites children to explore numerous facets of a topic, using a mix of resource materials: books, newspapers, journals, atlases, as well as the internet. At the bottom of each quiz page a research section is offered for extension work. These “Research and Report” activities encourage students to investigate a topic in more depth than the quiz questions allow. The quiz activities in this book will not only provide children with a useful and interesting store of general knowledge, they will also foster solid research techniques, which will come in very useful in their further studies.

Winner of the RNA Romantic Comedy of the Year Award. Two best friends. Eight pub quizzes. One shot at love... There are some people who seem like they have all the answers in life. Clarrie Midwinter isn't one of them. At the age of 26, tomboy Clarrie is still struggling to become a 'proper' grown-up. She's eternally strapped for cash, she hasn't had a date in nearly a year and her attempts to quit smoking tend to take a nosedive after the second pint. Most annoyingly of all, her ladykiller best friend Simon just won't stop asking her out. The only thing keeping her sane is her pub quiz team, the Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers. But when Simon bets her a date their team will win the quiz league, Clarrie is forced to confront what she really wants out of life – and love. Is it finally time for her to grow up? Gloriously irreverent, badly behaved romantic comedy from the author of Meet Me at the Lighthouse.
