Book excerpt: The story of a secret affair that would have rocked the establishment and changed the course of history. This series of letters, photographs and first-hand accounts is a true story of forbidden love and inevitable tragedy between Princess Diana's grandfather Lord Fermoy and an ordinary American woman. Maurice Roche met Edith Travis during a long train journey across America at the height of the First World War. There began an impassioned and impossible affair, culminating in Edith giving up everything and moving three thousand miles with her two young sons to be near the man she had fallen hopelessly in love with. Yet as the passion and longing grew there was an overwhelming sense of duty and realism striking deep into the relationship. Maurice knew that if he claimed the title of Lord Fermoy and married his newly divorced American sweetheart they would be ostracised by English aristocracy. Instead, the couple learned to cope by living a lie, allowing the course of history to continue as it was meant to be. But neither of them could give each other up, no matter how hard they tried. For over 40 years the lovesick couple, based on different sides of the Atlantic Ocean, wrote hundred

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One woman, an impossible dream, and the faith it took to see it through, inspired by the life of Hulda Klager German immigrant and farm wife Hulda Klager possesses only an eighth-grade education—and a burning desire to create something beautiful. What begins as a hobby to create an easy-peeling apple for her pies becomes Hulda’s driving purpose: a time-consuming interest in plant hybridization that puts her at odds with family and community, as she challenges the early twentieth-century expectations for a simple housewife. Through the years, seasonal floods continually threaten to erase her Woodland, Washington garden and a series of family tragedies cause even Hulda to question her focus. In a time of practicality, can one person’s simple gifts of beauty make a difference? Based on the life of Hulda Klager, Where Lilacs Still Bloom is a story of triumph over an impossible dream and the power of a generous heart. “Beauty matters… it does. God gave us flowers for a reason. Flowers remind us to put away fear, to stop our rushing and running and worrying about this and that, and for a moment, have a piece of paradise right here on earth.”

Book excerpt: Lombard has been called the "Lilac Village" since the late 1920s when William R. Plum, affectionately known as the "Colonel," bestowed his world-renowned lilac collection to the village for use as its first public park. Colonel Plum's 2.5-acre estate was known as Lilacia and began in 1911 after a trip to the Lemoine Lilac Gardens in France. By the time Plum passed away in 1927, he had amassed over 200 varieties of lilacs and had the largest collection of French hybrids in the world. Jens Jensen, the famous landscape architect, designed a public space out of Plum's lilac collection with winding paths of native limestone, tulips by the thousands, and a lily pond in the park. The first community-wide Lilac Festival was held in May of 1930, unveiling Jensen's Lilacia and including a Lilac Queen and Court, a pageant, parade, and wide variety of events and festivities celebrating the village's new park.

Book excerpt: Can one summer house bring two broken hearts together? Summer escapes to Lilac House have always been a source of comfort for Anna Harris. Though things will never be the same since her husband’s death, she knows that it is there, nestled in Lake Summers in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains, that she and her children Zac and Evie can begin to build a new life. The house is just as beautiful as Anna remembers, and caught up in the rhythm of small town life, helping her Aunt Hope run the little shop on Main Street, Anna begins to feel a sense of herself she hasn’t felt in years. Then she meets Aidan. Handsome, strong and quiet, he also knows what it’s like to lose someone. In each other they recognize something they’ve both been missing and they feel a spark. But Aidan’s past holds a different set of complications. He’s hiding a secret about why he came to Lake Summers. And just as the Lilac House finally starts to feel like home, Anna learns something devastating about Greg’s death that makes her question everything… The summer might have brought Anna and Aidan together, but can Anna finally let go of the past now she really has the chance for a new beginning?

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • One million copies sold! Inspired by the life of a real World War II heroine, this remarkable debut novel reveals the power of unsung women to change history in their quest for love, freedom, and second chances. “Extremely moving and memorable . . . This impressive debut should appeal strongly to historical fiction readers and to book clubs that adored Kristin Hannah’s The Nightingale and Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See.”—Library Journal (starred review) New York socialite Caroline Ferriday has her hands full with her post at the French consulate and a new love on the horizon. But Caroline’s world is forever changed when Hitler’s army invades Poland in September 1939—and then sets its sights on France. An ocean away from Caroline, Kasia Kuzmerick, a Polish teenager, senses her carefree youth disappearing as she is drawn deeper into her role as courier for the underground resistance movement. In a tense atmosphere of watchful eyes and suspecting neighbors, one false move can have dire consequences. For the ambitious young German doctor, Herta Oberheuser, an ad for a government medical position seems her ticket out of a desolate life. Once hired, though, she finds herself trapped in a male-dominated realm of Nazi secrets and power. The lives of these three women are set on a collision course when the unthinkable happens and Kasia is sent to Ravensbrück, the notorious Nazi concentration camp for women. Their stories cross continents—from New York to Paris, Germany, and Poland—as Caroline and Kasia strive to bring justice to those whom history has forgotten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1950s were a quieter time with no cell phones, texting, twenty-four hour news or social media. Residents of rural Mississippi had more time for unfettered interactions, although in keeping with the strict, but unspoken, social rules that ordered their lives. And then there was Opal Pratt. In this sequel to the author’s first book, Opal, Miss Pratt is encouraged to step out of her reclusive comfort zone and learns more about human kind. Sometimes more than she wants. In addition to new characters, the reader will recognize Olivia and Levi, the former hussy Frances/Francine, the immigrant preacher now with a love interest, and Opal’s rejected suitor, Lemuel, who assumes a new and special place in her life. Opal is naïve, courageous, and sometimes tragic. Follow her journey in Warren County Days. With a distinct voice that easily portrays both small town simplicity and heartbreakingly complex nuances, Diane Thomas-Plunk has once again transported me to the South I know and love in her new short story collection. The beloved Opal Pratt is back, along with a cast of characters both new and old, but all remarkable for the feelings they evoke. One standout story is None So Blind, which brought the combination of liquor and opera together in a manner that left me truly moved. I find it amazing that an author can take the folks that others would glance over and their life stories, and turn them into something exceptional. I was left wanting more, which is the definition of a powerful book in my opinion. ~ Christina Huber, Candid Christine Book Review Blog Readers who fell in love with spinster Opal Pratt in Diane Thomas-Plunk’s first book will be glad to meet more of this distinctly Southern writer’s small-town characters. Through interactions with old suitors, new neighbors, and roadside saviors, Opal continues to evolve with the changing times. ~ Erin Z. Bass, Editor & Publisher, Deep South Magazine Warren County Days is a believable trip back into the fifties. You’re going to see characters who leap off the page, full blown, and remind you of people you’ve known. And a few that you haven’t. Diane Thomas-Plunk, a born and bred Memphian, weaves stories about ordinary people who turn every day life into something special. ~ Randolph Haspel, Columnist, The Memphis Flyer
