The challenge was supposed to be simple. Spill a drink on an airline passenger and be one square closer to winning the company's secret bingo card game. Twenty-five different challenges, at various levels of difficulty, had to be accomplished within a month's time. After nearly eight years of being a flight attendant, Alice Kaminski had spilled drinks on plenty of passengers, mostly on accident and during rough air. She didn't particularly like the idea of the bingo card, but she had massive student debt; the financial incentives were enough to make her momentarily forget the questionable ethics of it all. The challenge was supposed to be simple-that is, until Alice saw her intended target-the beautiful woman seated in 3B. And after that, nothing was simple ever again.

It's in the tiny town of Embarrass where she learns more about Julia Desjardin. The city prosecutor is cool, professional, and untouchable. But she and Cassidy have history, and Cassidy isn't going to let her easily forget that.For all their surface differences, Cassidy and Julia have more in common than they first realized-both are reluctant to hand over their pasts to be judged and studied. But it might take someone just as damaged as the other to help each cope with the skeletons in their respective closets.

Don't Call Me Hero

It all started with a broken classroom heater... Graduate school prepares you for many things - the rigor of academic life, how to pull consecutive all-nighters, and living off a meager stipend without having to be roommates with cockroaches.

Because for all she learned, graduate school never prepared her for dealing with a student crush.

Winter Jacket

New from Eliza Lentzski: Damaged Goods - the sequel to Don't Call Me Hero. The past few years had been difficult for former Marine, Cassidy Miller. She'd left the military, joined the Minneapolis city police, only to voluntarily remove herself from active duty. In the tiny town of Embarrass, Minnesota, she met Julia Desjardin, the distant yet devastatingly beautiful city prosecutor, sparking a romance neither could have anticipated. Now, back in Minneapolis, things are starting to look up for Cassidy: she and Julia have reconciled, and she's hoping to be reinstated with the Minneapolis police soon. But life is never that simple. Cassidy can take off the uniform, but she can't shake the soldier. Her flashbacks of Afghanistan are getting progressively worse, her new police partner resents her existence, and she's not sure she's truly forgiven Julia for what happened in Embarrass. Can she enjoy this Happily Ever After or will memories of a not-so-distant past slowly tear her (and Julia) apart?

An unidentified Jane Doe, an unusual poison, and a decade passing since the murder wasn't going to make it easy on her. Plus a call in the middle of the night reminds her that as much as she might want to move on from her time in the military, some things would always keep dragging her back.
