Here’s the set-up:

There’s nothing like a near death experience to make a guy reassess his life. And that’s exactly what nightclub owner Logan McCabe decides to do, starting with looking up the girl he spent one wild night with eleven years ago, right before his life turned to crap. He spent a year fantasizing about her. Now he’s ready to see how reality matches up.

Abigail Parker is a perfectionist. She’s only strayed from the straight and narrow once in her life, on her eighteenth birthday. It was supposed to be one wild night with a totally unsuitable man before she settled into her sensible future. Instead it changed her life forever.

Logan might still be the sexiest man Abigail has ever seen, but a dirty-talking, tattooed, ex-con is the last thing she needs in her perfect life. He claims she’s his fantasy girl, but what he doesn’t know is she’s also the mother of his ten-year old daughter…

“But what are we without dreams?”

The vicars of the Temple of Light brought peace, ushering in an era of blessed simplicity. For ten centuries they have kept the madness at bay with “temple magic,” and by eliminating forever the rush of progress that nearly caused the destruction of everything.

Childhood friends, Orah, Nathaniel, and Thomas have always lived in the tiny village of Little Pond, longing for more from life but unwilling to challenge the rigid status quo. When they’re cast into the prisons of Temple City, they discover a terrible secret that launches the three on a journey to find the forbidden keep, placing their lives in jeopardy, for a truth from the past awaits that threatens the foundation of the Temple. If they reveal that truth, they might once again release the potential of their people.

Yet they would also incur the Temple’s wrath, as it is written: “If there comes among you a prophet saying, ‘Let us return to the darkness,’ you shall stone him, because he has sought to thrust you away from the Light.”

“The plot unfolds easily, swiftly, and never lets the readers’ attention wane… After reading this one, it will be a real hardship to have to wait to see what happens next.” ~ Feathered Quill Book Reviews (Awarded “The Children of Darkness” the Gold Medal in Science Fiction & Fantasy)

“A tightly executed first fantasy installment that champions the exploratory spirit.” ~ Kirkus Reviews

Here’s the set-up:

As a new mom, reading is probably the last thing on your list. With around-the-clock feeding, cuddles, cleaning, and a seemingly endless supply of dirty diapers, you definitely don’t have time to read that 300-page baby-raising manual that’s gathering dust on your bookshelf. But you wish you did have the time, because being a first-time mom is scary! How are you supposed to know all the ins and outs of babies?

Well the answer to your prayers is here. “Mama’s Manual” by Chanelle Bauer is a short, no-nonsense guide to the first year of raising your bundle of joy (and poop). This is the kind of book that you can breeze through while burping baby or taking some much-needed mom time. Unlike the lengthy, outdated parenting guides of the past, this manual is a concise and comprehensive guide that has all the information you need. And though its short, it covers everything. From secrets to more effectively nurse your baby, to recommended brands and products, to educating your child, this book has it all.

When Chanelle Bauer was pregnant with her first son, she realized that there weren’t a lot of great resources for her to turn to. And the more thorough resources (like the 300-page books we already talked about) were way too long for her to get through. As a new mom during the pandemic, she decided that she wanted to create a short yet complete guide for other new parents. And so, “Mama’s Manual” was born.

If you’re about to be a first-time mom, or know someone who’s about to pop out a little one (great baby shower gift, anyone?) this book is an absolute must-have!

Here’s the set-up:

The author of the Love in Provence series returns to the South of France with a poignant portrait of a woman who must learn how to create a new life for herself…

Sixty-two-year-old Arianna arrives in the South of France for a two-week artists’ workshop full of anticipation but burdened by guilt. Back home in Toronto, she has been living with the devastating diagnosis of her husband’s dementia and the heartbreak of watching the man she has loved for decades slip away before her eyes. What does her future hold without Ben? Before her is a blank canvas.

Encouraged by her family to take some time for herself, she has traveled to Arles to set up her easel in the same fields of poppies and sunflowers that inspired Van Gogh. Gradually, she rediscovers the inner artist she abandoned long ago. Drawing strength from the warm companionship and gentle wisdom of her fellow artists at the retreat—as well as the vitality of guest lecturer Jacques de Villeneuve, an artist and a cowboy—Arianna searches her heart for permission to embrace the life in front of her and, like the sunflowers, once again face the light.
