Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet the Women of Westport. An introduction to the women of this irresistible series full of romance, mystery, laughter, and just a bit of danger… Dangerous Deeds When one door closes, another opens… or falls off its hinges. They say that love is blind. Sure, they weren’t necessarily talking about old houses at the time, but that’s the story I’m sticking with. And I like that theory a whole lot better than the one about me losing my mind. I knew that buying a fixer upper I’d be stumbling into an unknown abyss of demolition, dust and unfathomable costs, but I never expected to find an engagement ring and letters of forbidden love hidden under the attic floorboards. Nor did I expect the lazy cat, or the drop-dead gorgeous handyman. And I definitely didn’t predict the stalker. As the renovation begins and the house starts to slowly return to its former glory, the letters dog my dreams. Who is the mysterious penman? Why was their love forbidden? And who is trying so hard to keep me from learning the truth about it all? Working alongside my hunky handyman Riley is proving to be quite the distraction, but I’m determined to solve the puzzle of the long-lost love affair. Only can I restore the house to its former glory, and solve the mystery before my stalker catches up with me? Or will I lose everything...including my life? Wicked Little Lies Every family has their secrets, right? Those little white lies that hang like skeletons in the closet, no one ever wanting them to see the light of day… Hi, I’m Molly, and up until yesterday I thought I pretty much had everything I ever wanted in life: I’m the owner of a successful photography business, I have a cupboard full of Jimmy Choos, and the new man in my life ticks all the boxes. But when two pink lines showed up on a drugstore pregnancy test and my new man Matt doesn’t respond the way I’d hoped, my life seems to be spinning out of control. Especially since Matt has vanished into thin air, and I can’t find him anywhere. Where has he gone? And why do I keep getting anonymous messages about him not being who I thought he was? Determined to learn the truth, I threw my Gucci handbag over my shoulder and decided to do everything in my power to track him down. Only what I learnt is that everything is not what it seems. As secrets are uncovered and long-buried sins emerge—the person responsible will stop at nothing to keep it all hushed up. Faced with fires, threats and more than one little lie, Matt and I must reunite and together face our fears to unravel the deceit. But will we be able to reveal the truth and get our happy ever after before it’s too late? Or will those wicked little lies destroy it all? Killer Unleashed Who knew one little dog could cause so much trouble? Hi, I’m Chloe! I have a house, a best friend, and absolutely no idea how to say "no." You see, my elderly neighbor asked me to surrender her little dog named Theo to the animal shelter, and of course I agreed. But then Theo batted his big puppy dog eyes, and I became the reluctant owner of a dog. As if I need another man in my life. With a sexy new neighbor named Brody to play havoc with my emotions, a creepy new neighbor named Rick, and my ex-boyfriend Jack snooping around, the men in my life seem to be multiplying, and I don’t need that kind of trouble. Add in an attempted dog snatching, a break in, a masked attacker, and a hit and run, my life is adding up to big problems. But maybe with the help of my new neighbor, I can figure out why everyone wants Theo, and what key he holds to the whole mess. If I can do that, I may be able keep us all alive! Invitation to Murder One invitation you wished you’d turned down… A workplace reunion at the television station where I formerly worked, sounded exciting. And the theme of the reunion is a Murder Mystery Party, so that should be fun, right? Wrong! My first horror was coming face-to-face with my ex-boyfriend and his brand new, gorgeous wife. Second, the party happened to coincide with one of the worst storms of the season, knocking out utility lines and cell service. And when my less than-beloved ex-boss becomes the Murder Party's fake victim, me and my "team" are tasked with solving the fake murder before anyone else. The only bright spot? The sexy cameraman with the sparkling blue eyes and soft, full lips who happens to be on my team! But what started out as a game quickly became all too real when I stumble upon the actual dead body of my ex’s new wife. Did someone take the game too seriously? Is there a real murderer among the party-goers? Can following the clues to a fake murder help me solve a real one? Trapped by the storm, with "players" disappearing and time running out, I find myself in the middle of a deadly game of cat and mouse... where not everyone will make it out alive! The Ivory Veil What if one dress can hold all the answers? I love my job at The Ivory Veil Bridal Boutique. I love matching the perfect dress to the perfect bride, and I loves how the veil can show a woman what a bride really looks like. Until the boutique was bought by the one man I hate, and suddenly my life is turned upside down. But when an exquisite wedding dress is found hidden in the attic beneath years of dust and dirt, I’m thrown headlong into a mystery that encompasses the past, and where the lines between love and hate are suddenly blurred. Can I separate my feelings long enough to see what’s real and solve the puzzle of who owned the dress? Or will I be out of a job and single forever?

Exiled from her elegant New York apartment by her husband's mistress, she and her two middle-aged daughters, Miranda and Annie, regroup in a run-down Westport, Connecticut, beach cottage. In Schine's playful and devoted homage to Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, the impulsive sister is Miranda, a literary agent entangled in a series of scandals, and the more pragmatic sister is Annie, a library director, who feels compelled to move in and watch over her capricious mother and sister. Schine's witty, wonderful novel The Three Weissmanns of Westport "is simply full of pleasure: the pleasure of reading, the pleasure of Austen, and the pleasure that the characters so rightly and humorously pursue....An absolute triumph" (The Cleveland Plain Dealer).

Book excerpt: “Get ready to smile….[A] sweet story and the perfect antidote to the chaos that’s been 2021.” –the Skimm A deeply funny and shrewdly observed debut novel about being lost in the very place you know by heart. Bennett Driscoll is a Turner Prize-nominated artist who was once a rising star. Now, at age fifty-five, his wife has left him, he hasn't sold a painting in two years, and his gallery wants to stop selling his work, claiming they'll have more value retrospectively...when he's dead. So, left with a large West London home and no income, he's forced to move into his artist's studio in the back garden and list his house on the popular vacation rental site, AirBed. A stranger now in his own home, with his daughter, Mia, off at art school, and any new relationships fizzling out at best, Bennett struggles to find purpose in his day-to-day. That all changes when three different guests--lonely American Alicia; tortured artist Emma; and cautiously optimistic divorcée Kirstie--unwittingly unlock the pieces of himself that have been lost to him for too long. Warm, witty, and utterly humane, Super Host offers a captivating portrait of middle age, relationships, and what it truly means to take a new chance at life.

Book excerpt: A pitch-perfect, emotionally riveting novel about the fracturing of a marriage and a family: “A gripping debut” (People) from an award-winning young writer with superb storytelling instincts. Life hasn’t always been perfect for Abe and Cassandra Green, but an afternoon on the San Francisco Bay might be as good as it gets. Abe is a rheumatologist, piloting his coveted new boat. Cassandra is a sculptor, finally gaining modest attention for her art. Their beautiful daughter Elizabeth is heading to Harvard in the fall. Somehow, they’ve made things work. But then, tensions overflow, and they plunge into a terrible fight. In a fit of fury, Abe throws himself off the boat. “A bittersweet tale of breakup and forgiveness” (O, The Oprah Magazine), The Violet Hour follows a modern family through past and present. As Cassandra, Abe, and Elizabeth navigate the passage of time—the expectations of youth, the concessions of middle age, the headiness of desire, the bitterness of loss—they must come to terms with the fragility of their intimacy, the strange legacies they inherit from their parents, and the kind of people they want to be. Exquisitely written, The Violet Hour is “a rewarding family saga reminiscent of Anne Tyler’s novels...Hill’s story unfurls from the kind of sensational marital spat that makes you feel better about your own imperfect union…wonderfully witty and assured” (The Washington Post Book World).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1963, Carol-Anne was 13 years old and hypnotized by the civil rights movement because much of it involved children her age. She read Time magazine and watched TV newscasts flash Birmingham police attacking children, the March on Washington, Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech, and a church bombing. During festivities for a family wedding at a country club in Knoxville, Tennessee, she observed young, white girls at their Debutante Ball. Black, tuxedoed wait staff lined the ballroom walls and waited to serve the guests. She wondered: Are those the jobs people marched for at the March on Washington? In early 1964, she learned that Dr. King was scheduled to speak at Temple Israel in Westport, Connecticut. Carol-Anne called Temple Israel and asked to attend. Rabbi Rubenstein invited her to the service and arranged for her to meet and talk with Dr. King. That conversation changed her life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly one hundred years after the Henry Street Settlement was founded, this venerable institution still serves the people of the lower East Side of New York. Much of the credit for its survival may be attributed to its founder, Lillian Wald, who is also the author of this book.The House on Henry Street was written at the height of the Progressive Era, when economic prosperity and an expansive spirit were pervasive, but when poverty and misery were the lot of countless new immigrants and families in urban areas. This book is the story of the early years of the Settlement and of the personal involvement of Lillian Wald in the social reform activities of the Settlement and the Progressive movements. From the first it was considered a significant work, and was widely and favorably reviewed. It remains significant.The story of the Henry Street Settlement is part of the history of New York City, as well as a key moment in the growth of social work in the United States. It is integrally related to the story of progressivism and social reform. Although the book's style is simple, it tells a complex story, both of one woman's indomitable nature, and of a special institution in a particular neighborhood of New York City. The House on Henry Street reflects the spirit of an optimistic era in which actors were part of larger social and political changes. It is also a history that moves easily from the personal, through the community, and finally to the national levels of American government. Professionals in the fields of volunteerism and philanthropy, progressivism, women's studies, and social welfare will find this an absorbing document.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opening of the ordained ministry to women, in the larger context of the women's movement in America, has created an unprecedented situation within Protestant denominations. Women are now increasingly visible in religious organizations previously administered solely by men. Congregations, church agencies, educational institutions, and volunteer organizations are all affected by the "gender shift" within mainstream Protestantism. Episcopal Women is the first careful historical and sociological study of the impact of these gender changes on a particular religious institution. This groundbreaking volume includes essays on Episcopal theology and women's spirituality, the urban church, aging and the church, women's organizations, women donors, clerical leadership, and black women's experience in the Episcopal Church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2017 Gold Medal IPPY Award in Autobiography/Memoir They first meet in Paris in the spring of 1996. David is a divorced American attorney living on a converted barge moored on the banks of the Seine; Roni Beth is an empty-nested clinical and research psychologist working from her home in Connecticut. Now in their fifties, both have signed off on loving again—until they meet each other. Miracle at Midlife tells the inspiring story of Roni Beth and David’s intense and transformative transatlantic courtship. Along the way, David the loner, living amid the beauty, freedom, and pleasures of Paris, brings Roni Beth, a responsible and overextended professional haunted by earlier loss and trauma, back to her core as a woman, while she helps him reclaim connections that tie him to a larger world. They wrestle internal demons (mostly hers) and external threats (friends, family and different perspectives) as they share adventures in their respective worlds. Throughout their journey, stories of courage, joy and integrity bring hope and delight to those who wonder how romantic love appears and evolves; inspiration to people in mid-life who, knowingly or unknowingly, have completed a chapter in their lives and are ready to move on; and comfort to anyone who longs to wrestle and conquer the demons of fear, born of history or of the unknown, and win. Testimony that love is real.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I realize that I am a soldier of production whose duties are as important in this war as those of the man behind the gun.” So began the pledge that many home front men took at the outset of World War II when they went to work in the factories, fields, and mines while their compatriots fought in the battlefields of Europe and on the bloody beaches of the Pacific. The male experience of working and living in wartime America is rarely examined, but the story of men like these provides a crucial counter-narrative to the national story of Rosie the Riveter and GI Joe that dominates scholarly and popular discussions of World War II. In Meet Joe Copper, Matthew L. Basso describes the formation of a powerful, white, working-class masculine ideology in the decades prior to the war, and shows how it thrived—on the job, in the community, and through union politics. Basso recalls for us the practices and beliefs of the first- and second-generation immigrant copper workers of Montana while advancing the historical conversation on gender, class, and the formation of a white ethnic racial identity. Meet Joe Copper provides a context for our ideas of postwar masculinity and whiteness and finally returns the men of the home front to our reckoning of the Greatest Generation and the New Deal era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this debut memoir, a James Beard Award-winning writer, whose childhood idea of fine dining was Howard Johnson's, tells how he became one of Paris's most influential food critics Until Alec Lobrano landed a job in the glamorous Paris office of Women's Wear Daily, his main experience of French cuisine was the occasional supermarket éclair. An interview with the owner of a renowned cheese shop for his first article nearly proves a disaster because he speaks no French. As he goes on to cover celebrities and couturiers and improves his mastery of the language, he gradually learns what it means to be truly French. He attends a cocktail party with Yves St. Laurent and has dinner with Giorgio Armani. Over a superb lunch, it's his landlady who ultimately provides him with a lasting touchstone for how to judge food: "you must understand the intentions of the cook." At the city's brasseries and bistros, he discovers real French cooking. Through a series of vivid encounters with culinary figures from Paul Bocuse to Julia Child to Ruth Reichl, Lobrano hones his palate and finds his voice. Soon the timid boy from Connecticut is at the epicenter of the Parisian dining revolution and the restaurant critic of one of the largest newspapers in the France. A mouthwatering testament to the healing power of food, My Place at the Table is a moving coming-of-age story of how a gay man emerges from a wounding childhood, discovers himself, and finds love. Published here for the first time is Lobrano's "little black book," an insider's guide to his thirty all-time-favorite Paris restaurants.

Book excerpt: Edward Davoll was a respected New Bedford whaling captain in an industry at its peak in the 1850s. But mid-career, disillusioned with whaling, desperately lonely at sea, and experiencing financial problems, he turned to the slave trade, with disastrous results. Why would a man of good reputation, in a city known for its racial tolerance and Quaker-inspired abolitionism, risk engagement with this morally repugnant industry? In this riveting biography, Anthony J. Connors explores this question by detailing not only the troubled, adventurous life of this man but also the turbulent times in which he lived. Set in an era of social and political fragmentation and impending civil war, when changes in maritime law and the economics of whaling emboldened slaving agents to target captains and their vessels for the illicit trade, Davoll's story reveals the deadly combination of greed and racial antipathy that encouraged otherwise principled Americans to participate in the African slave trade.
