Book excerpt: A new collection of short stories from the woman Rick Moody has called "the best prose stylist in America" Her stories may be literal one-liners: the entirety of "Bloomington" reads, "Now that I have been here for a little while, I can say with confidence that I have never been here before." Or they may be lengthier investigations of the havoc wreaked by the most mundane disruptions to routine: in "A Small Story About a Small Box of Chocolates," a professor receives a gift of thirty-two small chocolates and is paralyzed by the multitude of options she imagines for their consumption. The stories may appear in the form of letters of complaint; they may be extracted from Flaubert's correspondence; or they may be inspired by the author's own dreams, or the dreams of friends. What does not vary throughout Can't and Won't, Lydia Davis's fifth collection of stories, is the power of her finely honed prose. Davis is sharply observant; she is wry or witty or poignant. Above all, she is refreshing. Davis writes with bracing candor and sly humor about the quotidian, revealing the mysterious, the foreign, the alienating, and the pleasurable within the predictable patterns of daily life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller: A sprawling epic of an American railroad dynasty’s “sensational intrigues and stormy struggles for power” (The New York Times Book Review). Founded in Portersville, Pennsylvania, in the latter days of Andrew Jackson’s presidency, the Interstate is a small regional railroad with vast potential. Also, it is the birthright of Aaron deWitt’s sons: ruthless yet charming Rufus and stubborn, idealistic Stephen. When Stephen wins control of the Interstate, his victory starts a series of events that will roil the deWitt family for generations. Over decades, the Interstate grows into an enterprise capable of shaping the future of the nation. Yet, both its triumphs and defeats sow the seeds of the deWitt family’s downfall. Brothers plot against brothers, sons demean fathers, wives betray husbands—all in pursuit of monumental power. Not even Cornelia, Rufus’s beautiful and cunning daughter, can ensure that the deWitt family name won’t disappear. Spanning nearly a century, Never Victorious, Never Defeated is a brilliant dramatization of the lives of America’s robber barons and further proof that Taylor Caldwell “never falters when it comes to storytelling” (Publishers Weekly).

Book excerpt: Longtime residents of the Rhode Island mill village, Amethyst Hill, can tell you all about the haunting in the town’s old cemetery. The legend of the Amethyst Hill ghost has been around for as long as they can remember. But the story becomes all too real for shopkeeper Lydia Gwyndorra and her friend Cory Spenceton, who is the sole heir to the mansion that overlooks the town where the Spenceton Textile Mills were once a prosperous industry. With the discovery of some old diaries and stories from the past, Lydia and Cory are curious to learn what happened that turned a beautiful, intelligent young woman from the 1920s into the terrifying Amethyst Hill ghost. While they uncover this compelling tale of murder and deception, the supernatural activity around them intensifies at an alarming rate, as though the ghost were watching their every move, and manipulating Lydia and Cory into playing out the parts in a twisted reenactment of her past. Discovering the truth behind the legend may no longer be a mere curiosity. It now may be a matter of life and death... A sequel to ‘Afterimages,’ The Legend of Diadamia is C.J. Fisher’s second novel, again combining his love of the old amusement parks from New England, with his fascinations in history, architecture, movies, ghost stories, and new-age philosophy.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of Anne Rivers Siddons and Pat Conroy comes this sensual, beautifully written novel of the South, about a world on the verge of change and the secrets it fears will be revealed When you enter the town of Fawley, you take a step back to a simpler time, back to when neighbors shared potluck dinners, church socials were the only parties decent people attended, and people knew who they were and what they valued—and didn’t tolerate outsiders who tried to change things. It is into this closed but nonetheless appealing community that Danny Crane brings his new wife, Lydia. They met at Myrtle Beach, where they spent a week in the rush and confusion of falling in love. The relationship that ensued startled them both, and the fact that they married six months later was equally disorienting. It was an act of passionate conviction and blind faith. From the outset, Lydia finds Fawley to be different from the exclusive and privileged environment in which she was raised, secure in both “name” and “position” in her family’s stately home in the Georgetown section of Washington, DC. But gradually Lydia comes to realize that few things in Fawley are as they seem, for behind the serenity and the clean-scrubbed façades, there exists a tradition of suspicion and anger, of hostility toward outsiders and fear of change of any kind. Even more disturbing is her realization that Danny, too, is not what he had seemed—that beneath the easy charm lies a darkness borne of distrust and deception, and of secrets too closely kept. In a struggle to hold on to the marriage she continues to believe in, Lydia is forced to confront the forces that have shaped her husband—the town of Fawley itself, and Danny’s family, most especially his cousin Kyle, whose personal magnetism even Lydia has to acknowledge, but whose hold on those around him becomes more and more destructive. Filled with the heat generated by passions too long suppressed and secrets too long kept buried, Close to Home is both a sensual and a literary gem.

Book excerpt: King of Hearts by Kay David She loved him so much, she was willing to kill. He loved her so much, he was willing to die. One night with bad-girl biker Jessie Delacort should have been enough for straight-laced cop Kingson Landry. But she got under his skin and hasn't let go. Discovering she's an undercover Texas ACES agent makes it even harder to resist her. But he must, because his past could kill Jessie just as easily as it has the other people he loves. When Jessie Delacort rides into town on her Harley, the last thing she wants is to fall in love with another man who is hiding secrets too dark to reveal. But when they're forced to work together to bring down a powerful drug cartel, Jessie knows she's got it bad for the quiet cop with the haunted eyes. When the cartel's vengeance-driven leader sets his sights on the two of them, King knows he'll do whatever it takes to keep Jessie safe. Even if that means giving up their chance of turning the white-hot attraction between them into love.

Book excerpt: Untouched by the ravages of war and the politically volatile atmosphere, the Villa della Pace remains an island of European society in the tiny British Protectorate of Aderra. Its circle religiously maintain their rigid social calendar and allow nothing, save the death of King George VI, to interfere with their pleasures. But the flawless surface of their lives conceals a turmoil of deception and desire . . . Flo has just left school in England and is flying out to spend the summer with her mother Lydia, and step-father Harry, who, as head of the British Administration, must oversee the forthcoming handover to indigenous rule. Lydia is determined that this year Flo will have the summer of her life, just as she herself did years earlier in Nairobi. And believing she can relive her youth through unworldly Flo, Lydia devises a plan for her daughter's social debut - even providing a man. But she little suspects the intensity of emotion behind Flo's quiet façade, nor the irrevocable impact her presence will have on the whole community over those few stifling months . . . A powerful and beautifully written novel by Ann Schlee at her very best.

Book excerpt: Ashlyn Chandler had to make ends meet. After her father had died, her mother, Lydia had done the best she could to raise Ashlyn, but she had gotten sick. Ashlyn didn’t know what she would do if she ever lost her mother. The bond she shared with her was unbreakable. When the medicine ran out, she knew that she would have to put her pride aside. Ashlyn worked in a dress boutique during the day and they would give her old, torn dresses that her mother would mend to make them look new for Ashlyn’s other job she would have at night. She had rules—never kiss a man with her eyes closed. Never let her heart get involved. Julio Ramos made a vow to never love a woman after his mother died. For years he had watched his father fade away. He could never understand how that kind of love could change a person, until he met Ashlyn Chandler. Could he truly love a woman the way his father loved his mother? Could she break her last rule or leave her mother?

Book excerpt: The Allied Treaty with Japan attempted to break up a system that concentrated the country's real power into the hands of a secret few families. It was unsuccessful. After months of work, the entire intelligence community could only determine that there existed a secret committee that seem to run everything. It was a pretty Air Force Major's wife who broke the case by identifying the perpetrators which, in turn, sealed her own death warrant. Military families frequently lead strange life styles in equally strange places. This was particularly true in the fifties in Japan where great booze, great food and great ladies were all available at bottom dollar prices. In this environment of perpetual parties, Emily Jordan's involvement in an adultery/rape episode created a personal family disaster that she was able to turn into a business success and an intelligence coup. To accomplish her objectives she became a mistress, a CEO, a manager in a high Japanese government department and a spy. All of these were very unusual occupations for a round eyed American lady. Through it all she had but three goals: get the committee identified, get her family back and get the hell out of Japan in one piece.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By His Stripes We are Healed peeks into the lives of several members of the Solid Rock Pentecostal Church. Sabrina Jackson is quick to point out her husband's flaws and is devastated when he forces her to examine herself. Diane Pearson is too busy for her own good. She's been "running for Jesus a long time" and beginning to grow weary. With a creative blend of Christian principals and drama, By His Strips We are Healed leaves us no choice but to evaluate ourselves, our relationships with others and more importantly-our relationship with God. Pastor Pass is convinced that Jezebel is not only "live in the flesh" but trying to destroy everything he has worked so hard to build. Pastor Pass inadvertently becomes a busy body in his attempts to keep his congregation on the straight and narrow path. Finally, Pastor Pass receives revelation from the Lord and delivers a sermon that provokes thought and emotion so powerfully that all of the members of the Solid Rock flock to the alter. Sabrina, Diane, Pastor Pass and the rest of the congregation learn that although they have been broken they still have Jesus and By HIS Stripes they are healed.
