A beautiful virgin aches for a Big Easy bad boy in this novel from the New York Times–bestselling author of Rivals. In the sultry heat of the Louisiana bayou, Jolie Antoinette Smith discovers more than her great-grandmother’s plantation—she finds love. The plantation’s electrifying owner, Steve Cameron, with his dark blue eyes, black hair, and overwhelming masculinity, makes her wish she never committed herself to chastity before marriage. His loving efforts to restore the crumbling mansion only fuel her desire further, but when Steve says he’ll never get married, she knows she’s lost her heart to the wrong man. Jolie is a different kind of woman, and that troubles Steve. Her soft brown eyes and ready smile move him in ways that are dangerous for a man who has no intention of settling down. As much as he wants her, he’ll fight to keep her safe from his own desire—but that only makes the spark between them all the more intense.

Frequently well-meaning folk comment about the "loving nature" of those with Down syndrome. Three years ago, Jill began writing short reflections celebrating Isaac during Down Syndrome Awareness Month (October) but not shying away from the realities faced by a family dealing with special needs. She shared these details on social media, hoping to help others understand life with Isaac and to offer a glimpse of the real person Isaac is. Jill's goal was to share the struggles and the unexpected victories, the frustrations and the challenges a family must navigate, and to demonstrate that "loving" is sometimes not the term that springs to mind when dealing with Isaac. Jill has written about Down syndrome, but more importantly, she has written about one family's experience of having a child who is different. When the diagnosis of Down syndrome was made, Jill recalled searching the internet to find photos of people with Down syndrome at different ages for some reassurance that things would be alright with this baby she was carrying. She felt photos of Isaac accompanying her daily writing would be helpful to others who might be facing an unexpected diagnosis. She has written honest descriptions of the good as well as the not-so-good days of having a child who is different. Her reflections have been compiled in hopes of helping other families who are traveling down a path that is different.

The Girl with Something Extra, based upon a true event, is the story of twin sisters who were separated at birth. Crystal was lovingly raised by her mother. She excelled in school, went to law school and became a lawyer. Ultimately, she ran for the office of Mayor of Phoenix and won by a landslide. The other twin, Jade, was raised by her father and the drug lords in Mexico who worked for him. Although they never knew about each other, they were connected by several murders that took place in Arizona and New York. The lead investigator in Phoenix is Detective Thomas. Thomas had been a high school classmate of the Mayor and he managed to also have a very big crush on her. She had definitely grown from a skinny, book-smart nerd into a beautiful swan in his book. As Detective Thomas investigates the newest murder, he finds a surprising connection that may break the case wide open. The story takes many twists and turns along the way but packs an intriguing punch that turns into a surprise ending like you've never read before!

When racehorse trainer Delbert "Shorty" Rogers is found dead in a stall at Caledonia Downs, Homicide Detective Campbell Young is drawn into the investigation. Add to the mix a lottery winner, an Internet mogul, a reclusive land baron, his voluptuous helpmate and twin bodyguards, an eccentric environmentalist, a cast of backstretch characters reminiscent of Damon Runyon, and the murder of a thoroughbred racehorse named Download, and the scene is set. The possibility that the deaths of Rogers and Download are unrelated makes Young’s task even more difficult. With the assistance of washed-up racetrack journalist Priam Harvey, Young sets out to solve the mysteries and bring the guilty to justice. This is book #2 of the Campbell Young Mystery series. Book #1 is The Devil in Me (McClelland & Stewart, 2001).

During WWI, one Christmas, a young boy finds himself stranded in a snowed-in hill community in upstate New York, and finds himself experiencing a Christmas he is not accustomed to. He meets a "locked-out fairy" who introduces him to equally lonely neighbours, all of whom were also spending the winter far from home, and each tells him a personal story of the Christmas season. Some stories the neighbours heard in their native homelands long ago. A final celebration brings all the neighbours of different nationalities together, forging relationships that will outlast the holiday season and sending a message of hope to a war-torn world. Suitable for reading to children aged up to 8 or as a gift to young readers aged 9 and up. 10% of the publisher’s profit is donated to charities. =============== Ruth Sawyer (August 5, 1880 – June 3, 1970) was an American storyteller and a writer of fiction and non-fiction for children and adults. She may be best known as the author of Roller Skates, which won the 1937 Newbery Medal.

Notes of Caring offers a collection of thoughts, warnings, encouragements, and reactions to life itself. Augustines writings were his reactions to the belief system he came to know and embrace. He did not create it, but simply explained his understanding of it and how it worked itself out in his life. This collection of articles is much the same in being an explanation of ideas as I understand them. It is one persons perspective, and that is all.
