Lovably troublesome Gladie Burger runs into sizzling danger and a fiery love triangle in the second installment of Elise Sax’s hilarious and sexy Matchmaker romance series. Since joining the family matchmaking business run by her eccentric Grandma Zelda, Gladie is always looking for love. But when an unbearable toothache knocks her out of commission and into the dentist’s chair, she prays only for relief. No such luck. Emerging from an anesthetic haze, Gladie awakes to find that not only is her tooth still throbbing, but her dentist is dead—and the lead suspect in the murder, office receptionist Belinda, just so happens to be Gladie’s first real client. Now it’s up to Gladie to find Belinda a man and keep her from being locked up behind bars. As if that weren’t enough distraction, two gorgeous men are vying for Gladie’s attention: Spencer, the playboy chief of police, and Holden, Gladie’s secretive, gorgeously muscled neighbor. Still, Gladie’s not complaining about having a helping hand or two when the case leads her to a dangerously bizarre cult. She may have met her match—and if she’s not careful, it could be her last.

Beach volleyball player Caio has his eye on the highest prize at this Olympic Games-but does that mean more than a gold medal with his partner in the sand, Diego?

MATCHPOINT DEFENSE - Kick it up a Notch is a new book for duplicate players. MATCHPOINT DEFENSE teaches techniques that go beyond the basics that are used on every hand. Many of the book's forty-one hands are directly from club-level tournaments, so the reader gets to see that the techniques work and that good defense keeps moving daily scores upward.Excellent defense is much more important in duplicate than in Team-of-Four, Swiss Team, or Rubber Bridge. That's why MATCHPOINT DEFENSE is 100% about matchpoint defense. In matchpoint, every extra trick you get is golden. It doesn't matter whether you limit declarer's overtricks, set her contract, or cause an extra undertrick. GAME ON!MATCHPOINT DEFENSE explores topics like knowing which cards partner still has later in the hand, defensive carding to win that elusive last trick, and imagining declarer's plan so you can thwart it.

If defense is the hardest part of playing bridge (and it is!) then defending at matchpoint scoring is the toughest challenge a player can face. Every trick matters, irrespective of the contract, and every decision is potentially critical. In "Thinking on Defense" Jim Priebe introduced the idea of visualization, picturing likely hands for declarer and basing defensive strategy on those. In this book he shows how to apply the same methods when playing matchpoint events, which means essentially every pairs competition.
