SUMMARY:Meet & Greet with Carla Luna
DESCRIPTION:If your secret vice is to watch those Hallmark holiday romance movies this time of year\, you cannot miss the newest book from local romance author Carla Luna! \nIn the first of the Dutchess Hotel Series\, it has fake-dating\, holiday romance\, friends-to-lovers\, a pinch of spice\, and a swoon-worthy Santa. \nCarla Luna will be at Blue House Books on Sunday\, December 1st\, from noon to 3 p.m. to chat with readers and sign books. Whether you are buying this book for yourself or a loved one\, it is the perfect book to commence the Holiday season. We hope to see you there! \nABOUT THE BOOK \nHave yourself a merry little fauxmance—with a dashing Santa who just might make it real. \nRosie Gonzalez isn’t having a wonderful Christmas time. Not when she’s at risk of losing her job as assistant manager of the Duchess—Victoria’s oldest boutique hotel. If she and her team can’t bring in more guests by the end of December\, she’ll be let go. Adding to her stress is a calendar filled with family gatherings where her mom will inevitably nag her for still being single.\nDrew Richardson isn’t faring much better. As if working alongside his ex at Northlife Fitness wasn’t bad enough\, now she’s invited him to her December wedding. And since all his coworkers will be there\, bailing isn’t an option. To get through it\, he’ll need a plus-one for moral support. \nSo\, when Rosie recruits him to play Santa for her hotel’s activities\, he also proposes a fake-dating scheme to benefit them both. Just for the holidays—nothing more. But as things between them turn from nice to naughty\, they’ll have to decide whether a real relationship could be the best Christmas gift of all. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nCarla Luna writes contemporary romance with a dollop of humor and a pinch of spice. A former archaeologist\, she still dreams of traveling to far-off places and channels that wanderlust into the settings of her stories. Her books have been called “escape reads\,” ideal for perusing during a beachside vacation\, a long flight\, or a relaxing weekend at the lake. \nWhen she’s not writing\, she spends her time reading\, baking\, and taking long walks while listening to pop culture podcasts. Carla is of Mexican-American descent\, with roots in Los Angeles and Vancouver Island\, but she currently resides in Cedarburg\, Wisconsin with her family and her feisty Siberian cat.

SUMMARY:Meet & Greet with Kim Suhr
DESCRIPTION:Carefully crafted\, surprising\, and humane\, the stories in Kim Suhr’s “Close Call” unveil emotion in tight spaces\, hearts in turmoil\, and the searching soul of the Midwest. A series of stories that have been described as capturing “the searching soul of the Midwest”. \nKim will be at Blue House Books on Saturday\, December 7th\, from noon to 3 p.m. to chat with readers and sign copies of her latest short story collection. \nABOUT THE BOOK: \nA door-to-door salesman’s visit shows Carol a new side of her mother and threatens the security they both had taken for granted; a woman finds out what happens when we’re “too busy to die”; a woman in her fifties celebrates her newly augmented body parts; four friends try to breech a chasm in their friendship by planning a reunion; and a researcher examines his relationship to creativity in a world where it has been deemed a mental illness. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR: \nKim Suhr is the award-winning author of “Nothing to Lose” and “Close Call”\, both published by Cornerstone Press at the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point. Her work has appeared in many journals including at Midwest Review\, Pink Panther Magazine\, and Wisconsin People & Ideas\, where “Everything Burns” was recognized in their annual fiction contest. \nKim is also Director of Red Oak Writing where she leads critique groups\, teaches a prompt-writing class called “Time to Write”! and provides individual manuscript critiques and coaching.

SUMMARY:Meet & Greet with Lori Brand
DESCRIPTION:“Bodies to Die For” is a brilliant psychological thriller that will have readers wondering whether the perfect body really is worth dying for. Debut author Lori Brand will be at Blue House Books on Saturday\, December 14th from Noon to 3 p.m. to sign books and chat with readers about her novel “Bodies to Die For”\, perfect for fans of “You Shouldn’t Have Come Here” and “None of This Is True”. Don’t forget\, signed books make great gifts for the holidays! ABOUT THE BOOK Popular fitness influencer Gemma has transformed herself from a Before into an After\, complete with washboard abs\, thriving business\, and a gorgeous husband. But social media can be deceiving. Offline\, the cutthroat world of bikini bodybuilding may just eat her alive. That’s if she’s not first devoured by the secret nemesis that lurks beneath her polished surface\, waiting to destroy her. Software engineer Ashley is fat and frustrated. Frustrated with failed diets. With a world that wants her to shrink. With biased doctors\, online trolls\, and even her own mother. Until Ashley falls in with a mysterious and radical sect of Fat Activists who are fighting back … by any means necessary. She’s never felt so alive\, so full of purpose. She’ll do whatever it takes to ride this high\, destroy Diet Culture\, and win the approval of her charismatic leader. Gemma and Ashley are on a collision course headed for the Olympia\, the bodybuilding competition where futures are made. And lost. When Gemma’s toughest rival turns up dead\, and more fitness girls fall like dominoes\, it’s beginning to look like the body image war has gone too far. With breakneck pace and keen insights\, “Bodies to Die For” takes a hard look at social media\, the $70 billion diet industry\, and the war on women’s bodies—the wars we wage with each other\, and with ourselves. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Lori Brand is a lifting enthusiast\, group fitness instructor\, yoga teacher\, and software quality engineer. In past lives\, she’s been a gymnast\, dancer\, Playboy model\, and bodybuilder. Her time in the body wars trenches led to her realization that getting strong\, rather than shrinking\, is the way out. In an effort to spread the word\, she’s had articles published in “STRONG” Fitness Magazine\, “T-Nation”\, “Inside” Fitness Magazine\, “D’FYNE” Fitness Magazine\, and more. “Bodies to Die For” is her first novel.
