Mia is getting used to her new family now that her mom is remarried to Eddie and she’s gained a new stepbrother, Dan. She’s in the groove of going to her dad’s house on the weekends, and everything is going pretty well at home and at school. Well, except for Spanish class. Mia’s parents and stepfather speak it and she does too—but speaking it and writing it are two different things, and somehow Mia ends up in the hands of the merciless Mrs. Alvarez and almost failing Spanish class. Still, things are so good at home that Mia doesn’t want to worry anyone or rock the boat. But when her parents find out—all three of them—she realizes that instead of having two parents, she’s lucky enough to have three, and all three of them pitch in to help her. A baker’s dozen is a bonus!

Readers will discover dark, sour classic Russian Borodinsky; orange and molasses-infused Swedish Gotländ Rye; nearly black Westphalian Pumpernickel, which gets its musky sweetness from a 24-hour bake; traditional Old Milwaukee Rye; and bright, caraway-infused Austrian Country Boule Rounding out this treasury are reader-friendly chapters on rye’s history, unique chemistry, and centuries-old baking methods. Advanced bakers will relish Stanley’s methods, ingredients, and carefully sourced recipes, while beginning bakers will delight in his clear descriptions of baking fundamentals. The Rye Baker is the definitive resource for home bakers and professionals alike.

Book excerpt: Reviewers have called JJ Rose's erotica both "smoking hot" and "well thought-out and realistic", and now he's back with a brand-new collection of spanking stories that do more than just bring on the pain. You'll get to know people who you might have met at work, or seen in the grocery store, or passed on the street. And though these stories are fiction, the people in them will be just as real to you as their spankings are to them. Among others, you'll meet the young professional whose insecurities end in an attitude adjustment, the long-lost crush who makes a move at her high school reunion, the college student whose lies come back to haunt her, and even the pair of divorcees who have more in common than they thought. So bend over and hang on tight, because at the end of this book there will be some very sore bottoms. One of them might even be yours.
