If you believe the rumors you know that Doctor Charm, the wickedly sexy super villain, retired in shame seven years ago after his last fight with the super hero Zephyr Girl. The fact that the charming Evan Smith--father of four and husband of the too-beautiful-to-be-real Tabitha--bears a resemblance to the defeated Doctor is pure coincidence. And, please, ignore the minions.
Everything is perfect in the Smith household, until Tabitha announces her return to work as a super hero. Evan was hoping to keep her distracted until after he rigged the presidential election, but--genius that he is--Evan has a backup plan. In his basement lab, Evan has a machine whose sole purpose is keeping Tabitha hungry for him.
But children and labs don't mix. The machine is broken, and Tabitha storms out, claiming she no longer knows him. World domination takes a back seat to meeting his daughters' demands to get Mommy back right now. This time his genius isn't going to be enough--he's going to need both his evil alter-ego, and the blooming super abilities of his children to save his wife. But even his most charming self might not be enough to save their marriage.

Kaddy Chaak's career is in jeopardy, her social life is non-existent, and instead of spending the holidays at home with everyone she loves, she's in the hospital with her chronically-ill, probably-dying nephew Everett, wondering if her dead sister could have fixed this. The one bright note in an otherwise bleak winter is a potential visit from the Polar Terror, the only super villain north of the 66th parallel, to make little Everett's hospital wish come true.
Kaddy's not really expecting him to show. At best, she expects a lackluster cosplayer with a half-hour to spare.
But what she gets is a swoon-worthy stranger full of secrets, who might just sweep her off her feet--and maybe help her leave the past behind, once and for all.
A heart-warming stand-alone addition to the popular Heroes and Villains series.

Selena Caryll lost everything in the war--her ship, her crew, her family. Although technically on the winner's side, her lack of crew makes her easy pickings in any fight--and any bar brawl. But she never goes down without swinging.
Titan Sciarra, on the losing side of the war, brokered a kind of peace with the winners, enough to let him live as the fragile bridge between the two sides. As a Fleet Guardian, he deals with the day-to-day operations of the fleet--and breaks up bar brawls when necessary.
As a Guardian, obviously he should walk the fired-up Selena home. Make sure she gets there safe.
Definitely without flirting. That could bring his delicately spun balance crashing down, dragging the fleet with him.
If only a way existed to get the bodies of the fleet into motion again.
An action-packed enemies-to-lovers romance in a world drawn with stunning vision and depth--don't miss this fantastic series from Liana Brooks.

The participatory politics and civic engagement of youth in the digital age. Read Online at connectedyouth.nyupress.org There is a widespread perception that the foundations of American democracy are dysfunctional, public trust in core institutions is eroding, and little is likely to emerge from traditional politics that will shift those conditions. Youth are often seen as emblematic of this crisis--frequently represented as uninterested in political life, ill-informed about current-affairs, and unwilling to register and vote.
By Any Media Necessary offers a profoundly different picture of contemporary American youth. Young men and women are tapping into the potential of new forms of communication such as social media platforms, spreadable videos and memes, remixing the language of popular culture, and seeking to bring about political change--by any media necessary. In a series of case studies covering a diverse range of organizations, networks, and movements involving young people in the political process--from the Harry Potter Alliance which fights for human rights in the name of the popular fantasy franchise to immigration rights advocates using superheroes to dramatize their struggles--By Any Media Necessary examines the civic imagination at work. Before the world can change, people need the ability to imagine what alternatives might look like and identify paths by which change can be achieved. Exploring new forms of political activities and identities emerging from the practice of participatory culture, By Any Media Necessary reveals how these shifts in communication have unleashed a new political dynamism in American youth.
