A holiday tale that gets the (snow)ball rolling on a trilogy made up of the “western romances readers have enjoyed for decades” from the bestselling author (Romantic Times). Reid Barclay doesn’t have time for Christmas, not with trouble brewing at the Crown Seven Ranch. He’s got prize thoroughbreds to protect and a long-ago wrong that he wants to make right. But the beautiful cook who’s taken over the ranch kitchen is a welcome distraction, even if Ellie Jo Cade burns everything from gingerbread to roast beef. Her sweet face and womanly figure are pure temptation . . . Cornhusk angels . . . bright berry garlands . . . spun-sugar snow—everything about Christmas holds fond memories for Ellie Jo. She’s doing her best to make peace with an ornery wood-burning stove and make the old ranch house truly festive. All she wants is to believe in Reid . . . and the only-at-Christmas magic that makes hearts glow . . . Praise for the Lost Sons Trilogy “A Cowboy Christmas is exciting and surrounded with tons of mystery and treachery. This story will definitely keep your mind running wild with possibilities.” —Fresh Fiction “A hero you’re gonna love.” —Jodi Thomas, New York Times–bestselling author “A classic western . . . Kenny delivers.” —RT Book Reviews

Ray’s not on the attendance lists and doesn’t have a locker, or even a student folder. Jay decides that this lost information could be very…useful. And fun. Maybe even a little dangerous.

Ten-year-old Goose is lost. It's Christmas, his parents are dead, he's turned to petty thievery to support his increasingly addled Nan, and now his dog Mutt has gone missing. As Goose searches the streets of Manchester on Christmas Eve for any sign of his dog, he encounters a strange man named Anthony, who seems to know an awful lot about everyone he meets but almost nothing at all about himself. Anthony's special skill is to help people who have lost something-and everyone's lost something, according to Anthony. As they roam the streets together, they meet a wide variety of people, all of whom are searching desperately for something missing from their lives. As the mysterious Anthony proves again and again to have the power to reunite the seekers with the sought-after, Goose begins to wonder if Anthony may be able to help him find one of the precious things he's lost.

"Alice is an entrepreneur who owns a gift shop. Her business is failing, and she's struggling with doubts about her upcoming marriage on Christmas Day, in Pennsylvania. Despite her doubts, she follows the plan to meet her fiancé in Pennsylvania, six days before the wedding. Alice leaves New York and, as night descends, she gets lost in a violent snowstorm. A man darts out in front of her and she barely misses him. He's frightening and mysterious. He directs her to a nearby B&B. In a bookshelf in her room, she discovers an old diary wedged behind a row of books. The diary was written by a man 15 years before. Alice reads it and is immediately overcome by its honest and tender style. Intrigued, she sets off on an "innocent" journey to find the man, to learn what happened to him. During her journey, Alice must confront her past, present, and future, and make a decision that will change her life forever."--Back cover.

The Hudson Review has always had an international focus. Travel and reports from abroad have figured prominently in the journal, including essays on exotic and picturesque locales, as well as accounts from war-torn areas and the experiences of exiles. Many of these are pilgrimages; others are harrowing memoirs. What unites even the most devastating of these accounts are intellectual curiosity and a spirit of adventure. Places Lost and Found is a treasury of distinctive and compelling essays selected from six decades of the Hudson Review. From a description of the gardens of Kyoto and a portrait of Syria just before its civil war to reflections on Veblen and the Mall of America, these essays explore an array of places that are deeply layered with history and meaning. The stunning cover photo of the Semper Opera House in Dresden encapsulates many of the themes of the book: war and its aftermath, the importance of the built environment in any discussion of "place," the endurance of civilization and resilience, and of course the romance of travel.
