  Newly arrived in the small town of Oberlin, Ohio, Sterling is an enthusiastic young writing teacher trying to break free of his privileged upbringing. Samantha, neglected but brilliant, stays on the fringes of society, living through her books. Neither knows what it means to truly dream big until the summer of 1901, when their lives collide and they learn things about themselves and each other that challenge the ways they view the world.  
  When a stolen kiss suddenly separates them by over 100 miles, they both have to decide what is most important and how to obtain it–even if it means facing their toughest fears. When an important letter goes missing, and an old journal is thrown into the mix, Sterling and Samantha each worry about failure and loss, but are some dreams worth the risk? And when all hope seems lost, will their newfound faith in God be enough to strengthen them?

  Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes

  In a small Michigan town, in the late 1950s, the widow Etta Klein—wealthy and Jewish—has for more than thirty years relied for aid, comfort, and companionship on her Black housekeeper Harriet Gibbs. Between "Aunt Harry" and Etta, a relationship has developed that is closer than a friendship, yet not quite a marriage. They are inseparable, at once absurdly unequal and defined by a comic codependence. 
   
   
   
  Forever mourning the early death of her favorite son, Sargent, Etta has all but adopted Aunt Harry's nephew, the precocious, gay seventeen-year-old Oliver, who has been raised by both women. Oliver is facing down his departure to college—and fending off the advances of Etta's cook, Nella Mae—when the household is disrupted by the arrival of a self-proclaimed "warlock," one Maurice LeFleur, who has convinced Etta and Harry that he might be able to contact Sargent in the afterlife . . . 
   
   
   
  Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes was the debut of the extraordinary Henry Van Dyke, whose witty and outrageous novels look back to the sparkling, elaborate comedies of Ronald Firbank and forward to postmodern burlesques like Fran Ross's Oreo. 
   
    
   
  Contains mature themes.

  They're destined to fall in love... if they don't kill each other first. 
  Violet “Vy” Finch is a vampire cursed, for the very blood she needs is poison to her. Suffering unquenchable hunger and shunned for being of mixed lineage, Vy searches desperately for her mother who disappeared over a decade ago—the one person who may be able to heal her. Unfortunately, a great sorceress prophesies that Vy will only get what she wants if Petra Malkovitch willingly works with her to find a magical relic with the power to change everything. 
  Petra Malkovitch is an assassin. A member of the Order of Light—a shadowy organization that hunts supernatural creatures for profit—she wants only to kill the vampire who took away the last of her family.

  But is a common goal enough to bring them together, or will betrayal happen at the earliest opportunity?

  Daphne is everything I don't need, and she makes me crazy in all the wrong ways. This princess does not belong in the wilderness. Or, so I think. But then, thought is hard to come by around Daphne. 
   
   
   
  Between flying tourists all over Alaska's skies, hotshot firefighting on the side, and raising my sixteen-year old sister, I don't have time for anything, much less for a woman. 
   
   
   
  But time's been laughing at me ever since Daphne showed up. I can't get her out of my mind, and my control has fled the building. Oh, and I'm her boss. 
   
   
   
  One night, just one night, I let things go too far. Now, all bets are off. 
   
   
   
  Daphne & Flynn's story is perfect for listeners who love small town romance, military heroes, sassy heroines, opposites attract, workplace/boss romance, slow burn, emotional romance with a dash of angst, plenty of steam and swoon, and a grumpy hero with a protective streak as big as Alaska.

  A billionaire, age-gap romance.RowanI’m getting desperate. I need money to look after my sick mom, so when I get an out of the blue cash offer from the grandmother I’ve never met to be her surrogate, I can’t afford to say no. And then I find out who the man supplying the DNA is: Atlas Blackwood, my ex-stepfather. Oh and I’ll need to marry him too. This wouldn’t be a problem if he wasn’t the hottest man I've ever met. He was all those years ago when he married Mom and I had a crush on him a mile wide, but he’s even hotter now. It’s forbidden to want him, except I see the fire in his eyes when he looks at me and I can’t help thinking: would it be wrong to get pregnant the old fashioned way?AtlasI’m a jaded playboy. I’ve seen everything, done everything, so helping out a friend by supplying my DNA for a crazy baby-making scheme is no big deal. Until I find out who the surrogate is: Rowan James, my ex-stepdaughter and she’s not a kid anymore. She’s all grown up, an adult, and not only do I have to supply my DNA, I have to give her a wedding ring too. Again, not a problem, except she keeps looking at me like she wants something and I know what she wants: me. I know what I want too: to own her. If she’ll let me.Warning: this book contains explicit language and scenes
