After years of study and experimentation, the engineer invented Velcro, with hooks and loops just like the cockleburs. What would life be like without Velcro? In Animal Tech: Fur & Claws, readers will learn about six life-changing technologies that have been inspired by mammals. They will follow the stories of the scientists and engineers who have harnessed mammals’ abilities, developing them into powerful technologies that have shaped our world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Johanna Adalwolf has spent years avoiding the Lariat Clan and the wolf who resides there. She wants nothing to do with Nicolas Olcan and his playboy ways. With her business on the edge of greatness and an opportunity to enter the Race Games appearing, she can feel success on the horizon. But fate has a funny way of messing things up. The wolf clan alphas will only approve her entry under one condition: Race with Nicolas, or don’t race at all. Now she’s stuck with the arrogant wolf she hoped to never see again, fated or not. The last time they’d seen each other, she’d given him a swift kick in the shins and some choice words, but the Nicolas who appears has grown up. She shouldn’t be giving him side glances and thinking about how things could be different, not with so much at stake. It should have been easy— enter the Race games, win, take home the prize— but it’s clear from the beginning that things aren’t as they seem with the Supernatural Council or The Games. At every turn, someone is trying to stop them from crossing the finish line. The corruption runs deep, and without realizing it, Johanna and Nicolas find themselves in the thick of it. Someone doesn’t want the wolves to race. Too bad the wolves were always meant to run wild. . .

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In Claws for Alarm, the fifth book in Cate Conte's delightful and cat-filled series, it’s the heart of the busy season, and JJ’s House of Purrs is booming—until a killer is let off the leash. Maddie James has finally given in to her friend Katrina’s pleas to open up her cat cafe to more than ten felines: they’re now up to fifteen purring friends. In fact, JJ’s House of Purrs is making such a splash that she’s getting national attention. The Shoreline Animal Rescue League is quite interested in the cafe, and so Maddie accepts a request to meet with Jillian Allen, the executive director. Jillian shows up at the cafe and asks Maddie if they can partner on a fundraiser to support the local rescue efforts—and she offers up her celebrity endorser and her celebrity cat to sweeten the deal. Maddie, caught up in the prospect, offers up her sister Val to help plan the event. But when Val shows up for a site visit at the venue, she finds Jillian strangled with a fancy cat leash—a piece of swag they were intending to use for the fundraiser—leaving Maddie with a lot of questions to answer. Was her death a tragic one-off event, or is there something more sinister going on? Maddie has to figure it out fast, before anyone else in the rescue community is jeopardized.
