This season is different. I need that prize money, and I need it badly.What I don't need? Luca Vasvault.My new partner is perfect on paper: a gorgeous ex-Hollywood star with a body built for the ice. But in reality? He's brooding, difficult, and determined to make my life miserable.And even worse than that? He's the one man I can't stop thinking about.LUCAI'm not here to make friends - I'm here to fix my reputation. Stars on Ice is just another performance, and Matilda Stevens is just part of the act.She should be easy to keep at a distance. After all, she's everything I don't trust: too pretty, too polished, and impossible to read.Matilda needs to win as badly as I do, though, and our chemistry on the ice is undeniable. So we strike a deal: fake a relationship off the ice, give the public something to obsess over, and turn the attention into votes.But it's getting harder to pretend the way I feel about Matilda is just part of the show.

Paint by Sticker: Music Icons

Paint by Sticker is the most exciting new idea in activity books, both for grown-ups and kids. A compelling activity for crafters and artists, doodlers and colorers of all ages, each Paint by Sticker book includes everything you need to create twelve vibrant, full-color "paintings." The original images are rendered in low-poly, a computer graphics style using geometric polygon shapes to create a 3D effect. As in paint-by-number, each template is divided into dozens of spaces, each with a number that corresponds to a particular sticker. Find the sticker, peel it, and place it in the right space. Add the next, and the next, and the next--it's an activity that's utterly absorbing, both in the pleasure of peeling and sticking and the growing satisfaction of watching a "painting" come to life, emerging from a flat black-and-white illustration to a dazzling image with color, body, and spirit.Paint by Sticker: Music Icons brings us face-to-face with Elvis, The Beatles, Beyoncé, Katy Perry, David Bowie, Cher, Prince, and other legendary stars.
