"What do beavers and baked goods have to do with love? Well, everything for Liliana Travis, the owner of the local coffee shop, Higher Grounds. Her day job is serving caffeine highs, but her love life is at an all-time low. A meticulous planner ever since high school, she has a checklist for her perfect man and even plans for how she wants this future romance to unfold. But her carefully laid plans are about to be upended by something, rather someone, completely unanticipated from her past. Dominic Moore has always been the hometown celebrity of Mountain View. The former captain of the high school football team turned NFL pro is the definition of the "golden boy". But when Dom is caught in a scandal, he returns home to Mountain View to help his recently widowed grandmother open her dream bakery... and do some soul searching. For Lili, Dom's return is both exciting and a total gut punch. Her high school crush is back in town, but also fresh competition for her small business. To make matters worse, the nationwide baking competition, the Upper Crust Challenge, has come to town and bets are firmly on the table. Is it rivalry or romance as buttons are pushed, banter exchanged, and sparks fly? Maybe not everything in life can be perfectly anticipated..."--

Lioness. That's the first word that comes to mind when I see the brilliant redhead selling cupcakes at the hockey arena. With the soul of an artist and the spirit of a nomad, Bea Turner is gorgeous, quirky, and refreshing. She's also my teammate's little sister. As the Tennessee Thunderbolts' Rookie, I should steer clear. I'm here to play hockey and provide much-needed financial security for my family. To do that, I need to avoid distractions. Bea doesn't just distract me; she flips my world upside down. One bad joke has me pursuing her. One date and I crave more. Calling her mine? Well, now I'm dreaming of a future. The life of a hockey player - trades, travel, uncertainty - isn't for the heart of a creative. Bea desires adventure and possibility, not early morning skates and strict exercise regimens. When I'm thrust into a situation at odds with Bea's dream career, I know I can't hold her back. If we're meant to be, we'll make it work. But what if we're not? What if my greatest regret is letting my lioness go?

Eustace Cockrell was a pioneer television writer who contributed to many of the early western shows, including "Have Gun Will Travel," "Maverick" and "Gunsmoke." He also wrote for such high-profile television programs as "Alfred Hitchcock Presents," "I Spy" and "Naked City." As it turns out, Cockrell was also a master of the short story prior to his Hollywood career. Over 25 years, beginning in 1932, his works appeared regularly in pulp fiction magazines such as Blue Book and Argosy as well as in "slicks" like Collier's, Saturday Evening Post and Cosmopolitan.Now, for the first time, these stories have been collected in a two-volume set edited by Roger Coleman, Cockrell's son-in-law. Coleman, also a writer, is married to Cockrell's daughter, Elizabeth.These two volumes are organized to reflect a division within Cockrell's prolific writings. His early stories (1936-1945) portray the darkness of the Great Depression and the coming of World War II. Here, orphans, ex-cons and soldiers often serve as heroes and sources of inspiration. His later stories (1946-1957) express greater awareness of social issues and a rebellion against restrictive attitudes, especially those limiting the role of women and minorities. Cockrell was a gifted writer for whom everyone, even the most hard-hearted and downtrodden, received a second chance. Hope came not from the power of wealth or prestige but from the innocence of children, the integrity of women; and the insights of those often on the fringes of society.The Masterpieces of Eustace Cockrell further defines Cockrell's importance as an American writer, whether read in print or watched on the home screen.
