  ‘Irresistible! Sparkles with warmth, wit and compassion. A treat from start to finish!’ Nicola Gill  
  Interior designer Nicky always used to know how to make the best of things. Ever since she lost her husband though, things haven’t been easy. She’s had to raise her two daughters alone and she’s so proud to see them all grown up, and she knows that’s down to her. But she can’t help but feel like she doesn’t know what to do with her life now… 
  Then her best friend begs her to help out. Jenny is a TV exec and her new renovation show is in peril. Only Nicky can help. 
  The catch – Nicky needs to fly to Provence… tomorrow. To renovate a tumbledown B&B. Jenny doesn’t mention the fact that the grumpy B&B owner Robert seems to need a makeover too. Or that the budget is next to nothing… 
  Will Nicky be able to turn the B&B’s fortunes around, save her best friend’s job, and maybe even find some happiness for herself, under the blazing hot French sun this summer…? 
  Totally gorgeous, escapist, uplifting fiction that lets you escape to sun-soaked Provence from the author of the international bestseller, A Year at the French Farmhouse. Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Jennifer Bohnet and Debbie Macomber.

  Sis' Becky's Pickaninny

  The short story "Sis' Becky's Pickaninny" of "The Conjure Woman" now follows John as he reproaches McAdoo for all of his superstitious beliefs and how they lack foundation, commenting that these traditions are the reason why Southern Black people are destined for a life of continued acquiescence and little prosperity. This opinion stemmed from McAdoo's assertion that carrying a rabbit foot leads to good luck. John is concerned for Annie's health, since the main reason they moved to the countryside was to improve her health due to her current bouts of depression and anxiety. With this knowledge, McAdoo then relates the story of a young boy who was separated from his mother and orphaned due to a series of events, which could have all been avoided if the mother had simply carried a rabbit's foot. As the story goes, according to McAdoo, Sis' Becky's husband dies, upon which her master trades her in for a horse. Thus leaving her child, named Mose, orphaned and who grows sick, Aunt Peggy goes on to turn him into a mockingbird from time to time so that he can visit his mother. As part of her plan, Aunt Peggy lames the horse for which Sis Becky was traded, ultimately influencing Becky's master to trade her back, and reuniting her with her son once more. McAdoo claims that none of these events would have happened if Sis Becky would have had a rabbit foot with her, a moral that Annie once again understands. Over time, John notices that Annie grows to feel better, which he attributes to her simply surpassing her melancholy. One day, Annie asks John to grab her handkerchief from her blue dress, and as he goes to grab the handkerchief, John discovers a rabbit foot that McAdoo had placed in her room, which can be related to Annie's quick recovery from her ails.

  ""A delicious culinary romance."" —Booklist 
  From the author of A Taste of Sage comes another charming and engrossing novel in which a young woman must navigate her family’s expectations, the demands of her job, a new love, and a secret about her magical identity. 
  Larimar Cintrón works hard at three things: her job as brand manager for Beacon Café, a New York based corporate bakery chain; taking care of her parents and her abuela; and hiding that she’s a ciguapa—a mythical creature of Dominican folklore with long, straight hair and backwards-facing feet. Larimar may only be a ciguapa on full moons, but she feels like an outsider in her family the rest of the month too. Her love of ’90s punk rock music and style further sets her apart. But when her best friend introduces her to Ray, a bakery owner and fellow punk rock lover, Larimar thinks she may have finally found someone with whom she can be her true self. 
  As Beacon’s brand manager, Larimar oversees all new location openings, including its newest store in New Jersey, which could be the project that finally lands her a coveted promotion. But when she discovers the location is right across from Ray’s bakery, Borrachitos, Larimar is torn between impressing her boss and saving Ray’s business. 
  As Larimar continues to grow closer to Ray and the new store’s opening looms, she struggles to hide the truth about herself and her job. But embracing her magical nature may be the only way Larimar can have everything she wants. Witty and poignant, A Touch of Moonlight is a celebration of heritage, culture, and identity—of embracing yourself and finding your place in the world.

  Luna's life shatters in a single click. A stranger's photo, maliciously edited to strip her naked on a crowded subway, goes viral overnight. Overnight, she becomes 'that girl'—her phone flooded with vile offers, her family consumed by shame, her own sister, Sunny, a venomous accuser. Trapped in her room, force-fed pills, and drowning in public scorn, Luna sees only one escape: the cold embrace of the river. But a hand pulls her back. Vincent, a man with his own ghosts, offers not pity, but a dangerous proposition: revenge. He knows who targeted his late sister, Serena, and he believes Luna's tormentor is connected. As Luna hides in Vincent's world, helping in his flower shop under the alias Selene, the hunt begins. But when a delivery to her former university forces a confrontation with her ex-boyfriend, Marcus, and her own past, the fragile safety Vincent provides threatens to collapse. 'The Girl in the Pixels' is a raw, relentless thriller about digital violation, familial betrayal, and the fierce, fragile will to reclaim a stolen life.
