Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exquisitely wrought debut novel about sisterhood through three generations in Ireland and America. It is 1921 in Ireland. When their mother dies in childbirth, Moira and Julia O'Leary are left to rear their infant sister, Ann, while their father, a sheep farmer, despairs. After Ann dies, Moira and Julia depart Cork for Boston, but the painful secret behind Ann's death haunts their new lives and presages the confusion that will come to trouble the next generation. Moira and Julia have always been strikingly different, but theirs is a mercilessly dependable relationship-Moira's boldness is fortified by Julia's quiet inner purpose, while Julia lives vicariously through her sister's impulsive actions. Moira's Crossing charts their shared journey through marriage, children, and lobstering off the coast of Maine. At once an examination of the troubled intimacy of sisterhood and an inquiry into the meaning of faith, Moira's Crossing is also a story of what we leave behind and who we become because of it.

Book excerpt: Jonathan Braithewaite settles in eastern North Carolina in 1727. He marries a sea captain's daughter and they found Jonathan's Landing, later renamed Wisharton. Half the town evolves into a harsh, Calvinist planter community represented by the Brandt family. The other half into a more liberal community scended from the Anglicans and represented by the Braithewaites. Tension grows between the two families who pass through a series of crises. The hero's wife dies of untreatable disease, followed by her husband who is killed in a duel. The slave community evolves from its Yoruban (African) roots tempered by an infusion of Christianity. The eldest Braithewaite daughter marries a school teacher and they open an academy. The Brandt son becomes a religious fanatic who slays his retarded mulatto daughter resisting his attempt at rape. His older slave mistress mediates between the planter family and the slaves. She, too, is carrying his child. Brandt's trial for murder in the death of the girl takes up the middle third of the story. He is sentenced to the pillory and dies there as he is being branded on the forehead with the mark of the serpent. The Brandt's slaves engage in a carefully-controlled rebellion, and the Braithewaite widow frees hers. The final third of the story is set in modern times. Graduate student Kareena discovers she is a direct descendant of a sister of the slave girl murdered 150 years earlier. Moreover, her graduate advisor is a direct descendant of the mad planter Brandt. Through this lineage she and her advisor both carry the Brandt genes. Strange events seem to happen that cannot be real. Flashbacks relating to their common heritage carry the story to a terrifying and surreal conclusion, bringing their mutual family curse to an end.

Book excerpt: "The author of the acclaimed Cheerleaders Can't Afford to be Nice writes her second novel, combining the sharp irony and genuine warmth that marked her literary debut with a dramatic exploration of familial love and conflict." "At the heart of Moira's Way is Moira McPherson, whose brains and budding sexuality arouse the jealousy and unfulfilled longings of both her parents: a boozy father whose once promising athletic career has given way to an endless road trip selling sporting goods; and a mother who with murderous wit vents her frustrations on targets from Miss America candidates to her own precocious Moira. Completing this tempestuous household is a younger "good" daughter, who yearns too hard to be "normal." Moira has big dreams, far beyond Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and the way she sets about fulfilling them makes Moira's Way a truly unique reading experience." "Filled with indelible images of "growing up," distinguished by a voice that rings true and transports readers beyond the boundaries of the pages, Moira's Way confirms Susan Sullivan Saiter's burgeoning reputation as a sparkling new talent."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Do not miss this beautifully realized debut!"--- JT Ellison, New York Times bestselling author of Her Dark Lies on The Orphan Witch. A deeper magic. A stronger curse. A family lost...and found. Persephone May has been alone her entire life. Abandoned as an infant and dragged through the foster care system, she wants nothing more than to belong somewhere. To someone. However, Persephone is as strange as she is lonely. Unexplainable things happen when she’s around—changes in weather, inanimate objects taking flight—and those who seek to bring her into their family quickly cast her out. To cope, she never gets attached, never makes friends. And she certainly never dates. Working odd jobs and always keeping her suitcases half-packed, Persephone is used to moving around, leaving one town for another when curiosity over her eccentric behavior inevitably draws unwanted attention. After an accidental and very public display of power, Persephone knows it’s time to move on once again. It’s lucky, then, when she receives an email from the one friend she’s managed to keep, inviting her to the elusive Wile Isle. The timing couldn’t be more perfect. However, upon arrival, Persephone quickly discovers that Wile is no ordinary island. In fact, it just might hold the very things she’s been searching for her entire life. Answers. Family. Home. And some things she did not want. Like 100-year-old curses and an even older family feud. With the clock running out, love might be the magic that saves them all.

Book excerpt: Eve Eddison describes her ideal woman to her best friend, Roxanne, over pints in their local pub a few days before she travels to the Scottish Highlands. There she falls head over heels for an enigmatic local, Moira Burns, and the usually reticent Eve wants more than a holiday romance. Forestry officer Moira Burns has no intention of letting go—either of past pain or for present pleasure. If that means she misses out on her chance at happiness, so be it. Convinced Eve is headed for heartbreak, Roxanne advises her to let Moira go…but has Eve found her ideal woman at last? From the breathtaking Highlands of Scotland to the buzz of a Leicester gay bar, family and friendship are tested to breaking point, as letting go proves painfully hard.

Book excerpt: Tucker Stapleton emerged from a youth of trial and conflict as a fiercely determined young man endowed with special talents. These talents were clearly recognized by his early teens; they included extraordinary athletic prowess, high-level intelligence, and exceptional charm. After college, he realized a great deal of success in professional football, and with that success, he became famous. He was the recipient of professional football's honors and accolades. When he was struck down by a career-ending injury, businesses sought his polished charm and name recognition. In his capacity as a Vice President in charge of Community Relations at a large and prestigious company, Tucker Stapleton would begin the second dynamic period of his life. He was not yet thirty years old, but he was wealthy, and to most who met him, he was handsome and completely irresistible. His arrival at Shamrock Hill marked his deepening involvement with the closely bonded families who lived there. The devastating impact and tragic suffering that his hedonistic and exploitative actions brought to those families served to put his life on a collision course with a life-crisis that culminates in a violent confrontation.
