  In this captivating novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel, a wildly successful, unmarried wedding planner leads her clients to happily ever after. 
   
  Faith Ferguson is New York’s most in-demand wedding planner, an arbiter of taste for elegant affairs, lavish ceremonies, and exclusive fêtes. She appreciates a simple celebration as much as a dazzling event, for she knows that a dream wedding is not necessarily the most expensive one. 
   
  As much as Faith enjoys her work, her two failed engagements leave her with no desire to get married herself. She finds fulfillment in her close relationship with her twin sister, Hope, her role as a mentor for her assistant, Violet, and her career. 
   
  This year, new clients have flocked to her, and she signs up an extravagant reception, a mid-sized gathering, and an intimate soirée, in addition to her mother’s next marriage and Violet’s modest ceremony. Faith finds herself forming bonds with her new clients and their loved ones—most notably the handsome brother of one of her grooms. 
   
  But weddings are not always all champagne and roses, and in no time, Faith is grappling with private quarrels, unplanned pregnancies, family scandals, dark secrets, and the possibility of canceled ceremonies. Through her own journey, Faith will prove once and for all that there is not just one path to happily ever after. 
   
  In The Wedding Planner, Danielle Steel presents an enchanting story about the winding road to love and the many ways to find joy while staying true to oneself.

  The Metamorphosis** is a powerful narrative that revolves around the harrowing tale of a young man named Gregor Samsa, who, after a night filled with restless dreams, awakens to find himself inexplicably transformed into a grotesque, beetle-like creature. This sudden and horrifying change casts him into a punishingly lonely existence, forcing him to confront the shame and disgrace he brings upon his family. In his new form, Gregor feels like a stranger in his own home, epitomizing the experience of alienation that many feel in their lives.  
  The story opens with a vivid description of Gregor’s shocking transformation. As he lies in bed, his back now covered in a hard, armor-like shell, he struggles to comprehend his new reality. Lifting his head slightly, he gazes down at his grotesque body – a vast, domed belly segmented and rigid, almost as if it were made from a thick, impenetrable material. The bed quilt, once a comforting presence, now teeters precariously atop him, threatening to slip away and expose the full extent of his bizarre predicament. His legs, thin and weak in comparison to the mass of his body, flail aimlessly before him, a pitiful sight that reinforces his helplessness. This striking imagery frames a profound exploration of human emotions: inadequacy, guilt, and the suffocating sense of isolation that can consume one’s existence.

  When high school teacher Sarah Bennett returns to her childhood hometown of Hollow Creek to care for her ailing grandmother, she expects quiet comfort—not a decades-old mystery that threatens to unravel the town's peaceful facade. The day she arrives, the mayor's daughter vanishes without a trace, eerily mirroring an unsolved disappearance from twenty years earlier. As suspicion falls on the town's most prominent families, Sarah finds herself drawn into the investigation, uncovering buried secrets that someone will kill to keep hidden. With the help of a reluctant local detective and a mysterious historian who knows too much about the town's dark past, Sarah must navigate a web of lies, old grudges, and shocking betrayals. But in a town where everyone has something to hide, the truth may be more dangerous than she ever imagined.
