Rich. Wealthy. Well-heeled. Moneyed. Affluent. Not bad — but why not get Stacked instead? If you’ve ever dreamed of a basic philosophy of money that’ll help you live bigger, be bolder, and laugh harder, you need this book. In these uncertain times, the basics matter more than ever. But for most of us, concepts such as investing, budgeting, and getting out of debt just don’t float our boats (or 150-foot yachts) — and so we put them off longer than we should.

Laugh, swoon, and fall in love with a hilarious small-town romance that’s stacked with charm! Stacked is a witty, heartwarming tale of rivalry, rekindled sparks, and unexpected love. My life revolves around The Green Frog, New Burlington’s beloved independent bookstore—until Robert Kilgore, my high school crush turned Wall Street hotshot, rolls back into town with a flashy bookstore-bourbon-bar combo that threatens to put me out of business. His smoldering looks and sharp wit make our rivalry anything but professional, and soon, old memories and new chemistry ignite a spark we can’t...

But the champions of those races are long dead leaving none to stand up and lead a new defense. This time, there is only one halfling with his axes and his highly fashionable hat to hold the line against evil and determine the ultimate fate of ...
