Hate to Love the Inspector
by Elsie Woods

Sweet Romance
Rating: 4.1
I thought things were moving along well with my job as a groomer of naughty puppies at the Dog’s Paw Dog Spa. I can handle the most troublesome of four-legged furballs, so it can’t be much harder to manage the male species of the two-legged variety, right? Wrong.
Inspector Buckley waltzes into the Dog’s Paw Dog Spa and turns everything upside down. If there ever was the perfect example of an arrogant, cocky, selfish hunk of man, it’s Inspector Buckley. He’s here to shut down the spa, and I’ve got to stop him. But then again, there’s something stirring under that tough exterior, if only he would let it show a little more… And if he does, what then?

The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
by Rebecca Skloot
BARGAIN
History
Rating: 4.7
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells–taken without her knowledge–became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than sixty years.
HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects; helped lead to important advances like in vitro fertilization, cloning, and gene mapping; and have been bought and sold by the billions. Yet Henrietta Lacks remains virtually unknown, buried in an unmarked grave. #ad
