Look both ways : a novel / by Barclay, Linwood,author.;
The residents of Garrett Island are part of a visionary experiment. Their cars have been sent to the mainland and now, for one month, they've got self-driving vehicles called Arrivals. With a simple voice command, an Arrival will take you wherever you want to go, and because these cars are networked and aware of each other, road mishaps are a thing of the past. As the world's press arrives for a glimpse of this driverless future, islander and single mum Sandra Montrose preps for the huge media event. She's ready for this new world. Her husband died when he fell asleep at the wheel one night, and she's relieved her two teens, Archie and Katie, may never need drivers' licenses. God knows, Archie already finds enough ways to get into trouble. And Katie, unbeknownst to her mum, is flirting with danger as she investigates what strange secret the old man across the street is keeping in his garage. But as this special media day gets underway, there are signs all is not well. A member of the press has vanished, possibly murdered. There are rumours of industrial sabotage, an unleashing of a malevolent virus. Before long, the Arrivals aren't taking orders from their passengers anymore. They're starting to organise and hunt. And they've got the residents of Garrett Island in their sights.

When Katie met Cassidy / by Perri, Camille,author.;
"From the acclaimed author of THE ASSISTANTS comes another gutsy book about the importance of women taking the reins--except this time, when it comes to finding sexuality, pleasure and love sometimes where you least expect it. Katie Daniels is a perfection-seeking 28-year-old lawyer living the New York dream. She's engaged to charming art curator Paul Michael, has successfully made her way up the ladder at a multinational law firm, and has a hold on apartments in Soho and the West Village. Suffice it to say, she has come a long way from her Kentucky upbringing. But the rug is swept from under Katie when she is suddenly dumped by her fiance, Paul Michael, leaving her devastated and completely lost. On a whim, she agrees to have a drink with Cassidy Price-a self-assured, sexually promiscuous woman she meets at work. The two form a newfound friendship, which soon brings into question everything Katie thought she knew about sex--and love. WHEN KATIE MET CASSIDY is a romantic comedy that explores how, as a culture, while we may have come a long way in terms of gender equality, a woman's capacity for and entitlement to sexual pleasure still remain entirely taboo. This novel tackles the question: Why, when it comes to female sexuality, are so few women figuring out what they want and then going out and doing it?"--

Though they are longtime friends, they've recently had a rocky relationship, thanks to her being partly responsible for his latest breakup. But while they may not always get along, she needs someone to trust with her secrets, and Harley is nothing if not trustworthy. Katie has always reminded Harley of a bright hummingbird-- she moves a mile a minute, and she possesses a very sharp beak. He's hesitant to accept the job because of his history with Katie. But when he realizes that Katie's been hiding her mother's hoarding, he agrees to help her because it's clear she needs someone on her side. Both soon discover that clearing the debris in an old house can lead to some clean-up in their lives, too. As the house gets a second chance, so does their relationship. Now all they have to do is open their hearts-- and hope and pray that their new bond will also stand the test of time."-- Page [4] of cover.
