She's finally seeing the fruits of her labors. Chef Ellie ''Lemon'' Manelli's hip East Village bistro is suddenly all the rage; Lemon and her staff of wildly talented friends plucked from New York City's finest eateries can barely keep pace. Good thing she has her loyal, doting, bankrolling Georgia peach of a boyfriend, Eddie, to lean on -- not to mention a gaggle of loving relations over the river in Brooklyn. In fact, Lemon's life is turning out exactly as she planned -- except for the fact that she's late. As in late. Nobody said anything about, you know, labor. Having a baby right now would jeopardize everything Lemon has worked so hard to accomplish, so the pregnancy test results leave her feeling a little sour. Eddie, bless his heart, wants to just go ahead and get married, but Lemon's not sure the timing's right. She's about to learn a lesson or two about love and loss, though. And in the end she'll discover that there's a reason things work out the way they do -- and that when life gives you lemons, you can make lemonade, or lemon tarts, or lemon meringue pie. Or, you can just be a plain ole Lemon, if that's what you were meant to be. more...

Meet Wooster and Jeeves' Only True Rival! Next to that famous pair, Rupert Psmith is P. G. Wodehouse' most beloved creation. This monocle-sporting dandy and ex-Etonian will tell you that the P in his name is silent, and was added by himself as he considers himself too remarkable to be a mere "Smith". You will meet Psmith in all his most famous adventures in this bargain omnibus reprinting of the three books that introduced this famous Wodehouse character to the world. When Mike introduces his new university chum, Psmith, to the gang, in "Mike and Psmith," Edwardian high-jinks are never higher. Climaxes with Wodehouse's greatest shambles of a cricket match. Next, in "Psmith in the City," our hero settles down to serious work in a bank (what could be more serious?), but soon has turned Britain's staid financial establishment upside-down. Finally, we learn what happens when Mike and our hero take off for the U.S. on a cricket tour. When he takes charge of a Big Apple magazine, "Psmith, Journalist" also takes on slum lords, gangsters, and society attorneys, and some of the drollest scenes the author ever penned. Written just before the creation of Wooster and Jeeves, the Psmith stories are Wodehouse at his best. more...
