It is 2002 as Melvin stands atop the bluff that overlooks the now-deserted land he has inherited from his recently deceased father, glancing down at the ground he has called home all the years of his life. As memories flood his mind, he realizes he is not as prepared as he should be for the uncertainty that lies ahead, but grateful he has his wife, Mattie, by his side to help him. Although his spiritual journey has been rocky at times, his faith in God is strong. Eight years later, Ida is a devoted teacher who is doing her best to claw her way out of the darkness that has enveloped her mind and prompted suicidal thoughts. As she heads to a beautiful bluff that brought her much peace in the past, she reflects on her life experiences and her own spiritual journey while navigating her way through a path lined with thick briars and branches. She has driven to this place for answers—searching for something outside herself, her own being. Will she find the answers or something much better? In this beautiful story of faith, love, and hope of new beginnings, God strategically places two strangers together, intertwining their pasts with connections only He could have known.

Is it holy matrimony or an unholy mess? Having worked in a Las Vegas Wedding Chapel for many years, Bella Johnson thought she’d seen it all when it came to spur of the moment weddings. Until the morning she wakes up in bed with a handsome and charming Brit she’d met only the day before who claims they’re now married. Neither Bella nor Colin have any recollection of saying ‘I do’, although their respective grandparents assure them they’ve done just that. As she and her new husband work together to discover what really happened, Bella learns that the truth is a tricky thing because what her mind hopes they discover is not at all what her heart wants.

Book 10 in Ved Mehta's Continents of Exile series. Nearly 50 years in the making, Continents of Exile is one of the great works of twentieth-century autobiography: the epic chronicle of an Indian family in the twentieth century. From 1930s India to 1950s Oxford and literary New York in the 1960s-80s, this is the story of the post-colonial twentieth century, as uniquely experienced and vividly recounted by Ved Mehta. In lucid, sparse prose Mehta documents the twists and turns of a romantic history peppered with disappointment and anguish - that is until, in his search for self-understanding, he meets a surprising guide who shows the way toward new insights about himself and those he has loved.

Carol Malyon writes of women's lives, of their relationships with lovers, mothers, children, other women. She explores the relationships between memory and truth. "Lovers & Other Strangers" consists of small stories, snapshots of women's lives in specific times and situations. The setting and characters vary but the theme remains fixed: that there is a fundamental and irreconcilable discord between men and women, in their view of the world, their modes of communication, the way they view themselves, the way they view others. Carol Malyon's stories are nearly all unconventionally brief and intense in feeling. They are essentially a poet's stories but they most definitely are not that revolting hybrid prose-poetry'. This writing is hard, direct, forceful. She is among those writers who are forcing us to reconsider the nature and form of the short story in Canada. The stories are often prickly. They illuminate, but illuminate darkly. Malyon gazes down into the emotional chasm which seems to seperate men and women, parents and children, and the images she brings to the surface are not quite like anything you've read before ... though you recognize them and know they're true. Perhaps the only Canadian stories at all comparable are those of Carol Shields in "Various Miracles" and "The Orange Fish."
