  Inheritance by Edward W. Ludwig is a quiet, haunting story about survival, loneliness, and the strange way hope can return when everything else has vanished. Martin survives a mysterious catastrophe only because he was trapped in a cave with his dog. When he finally reaches daylight, he finds highways full of empty cars, silent farms, and still cities. Step by step, he pieces together what happened, and what the rest of his life must now become. 
  As he explores deserted streets, abandoned stores, and fading dreams of civilization, Martin wrestles with the fear that isolation will drive him mad. Yet something unexpected follows the grief. He begins to see the world differently. He finds food, music, luxury, and the chance to roam every place he once thought unreachable. What begins as terror slowly becomes a strange new inheritance — a world left behind. 
  Edward W. Ludwig was a prolific American writer who worked across magazines and anthologies from the 1940s through the 1960s. His stories often focused on ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances, mixing adventure, emotion, and thoughtful speculation. 
  Ludwig’s fiction appeared in some of the best-known science-fiction and mystery publications of the era. He wrote for both adults and younger readers, developing a reputation for clean storytelling, human themes, and sincere emotional depth. Inheritance is an excellent example — grounded, personal, and unforgettable.

  If only life were as simple as making a reservation. 
  Makenna Rye Conroy was living the dream—with an amazing husband and a beautiful new baby daughter—when one night changed everything. 
  Almost six years after Adam’s death, Makenna and her daughter Paige have built a solid, happy life together. Makenna manages her brother’s trendy restaurant, The Yard, and helps out at Ryeland Farms, the family business, all while navigating the world of private school parenting. Sure, being a single mom has its challenges, but she hardly has time to pack her daughter’s lunch in the morning, let alone think about dating. 
  Travis McNulty, the middle child and biggest disappointment of the McNulty clan, is a chef at his best friend’s new restaurant. He gave up apologizing for not being the football hero his family wanted a long time ago. In fact, Travis apologizes for very little these days. He loves creating great food—it’s more of a passion than a job—and he lives life on his own terms with few complications. 
  For the past couple years, Makenna and Travis have worked side by side at The Yard, bickering, teasing, and never taking each other very seriously. That is until Makenna has her usual reoccurring dream; but this time, instead of her late husband as the featured man, Travis stands in his place. Travis may be attracted to his best friend’s sister, but she’s a widow and a mother, which tops the charts for complicated in his book. 
  As the game changes, Makenna and Travis, with a little help from Paige, have to figure out what they are willing to risk to reserve a table for three.
