  A New York Times–bestselling author brings Gilded Age New York and Victorian England alive in this “vastly entertaining” saga of a bold American heiress (Publishers Weekly).  The daughter of one of New York City’s brash new millionaires and an impoverished socialite, Christabel Spencer inherited both her father’s passionate nature and her mother’s beauty and breeding. An American debutante in Paris and London, Chrissie waltzed with European princes and English lords, all of whom found her combination of looks and wealth irresistible. Despite her father’s dream of having an English aristocrat for a son-in-law, Chrissie is determined not to marry for social status alone. She cannot live without love—and will find it at any cost.   Featuring a cast of unforgettable characters, The Millionaire’s Daughter is the heartwarming, surprising tale of a young woman caught in the crosscurrents of ambition and desire.

  1989, Botswana. 
  A marriage on the edge. A death that still haunts the desert. 
  When the Australian pilots’ dispute explodes, journalist Verity White and her airline-pilot husband, James, see their hard-won careers collapse overnight. Bound by loyalty and fifteen years of history, Verity follows James to Botswana, where the wild beauty of the Okavango Delta promises a fresh start—and instead exposes every fracture in their marriage. 
  Adrift in the isolated safari camps, Verity stumbles on the echoes of an old tragedy: a hunting trip in the Kalahari that ended in a young man’s death. As she begins to ask questions, she’s drawn into the orbit of Starky Willis, a charismatic safari operator with a past knotted tightly to that night—and to whispers of illegal wildlife killings that stain the desert silence. 
  As poachers, old loyalties and buried guilt converge, Verity must decide what she’s willing to risk: her marriage, her life, or her chance to finally reclaim herself in a land where every choice has a cost.

  This is the story of Saint Brendan the Navigator, whose legendary quest to find the Isle of the Blessed is one of the most remarkable and enduring early Christian tales. 
   
   
   
  Among Irish saints, Brendan the Navigator is second only to Patrick. Founder of several monasteries, he most famously guided a group of monks on a dangerous journey into the unknown vastness of the ocean on a search for Paradise. Based on the medieval "Life of St Brendan," Morgan Llywelyn's imaginative retelling of the Christian legend of this most remarkable man is a lyrical and surprising feast for the mind and heart. It is a story of truth and transcendence, and inner strength and daily discipline, a story of love and longing, and a story of towering faith. And of course, miracles.

  Arizona Territory, 1871. Valeria Obregón and her ambitious husband, Raúl, arrive in the raw frontier town of Tucson hoping to find prosperity. Changing Woman, an Apache spirit who represents the natural order of the world and its cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, welcomes Nest Feather, a twelve-year-old Apache girl, into womanhood in Aravaipa Canyon. 
   
   
   
  Mexican and Anglo settlers have pushed the Apaches from their lands, and the Apaches carry out raids against them. In turn, the settlers, angered by the failure of the US government and the military to protect them, respond with a murderous raid on an Apache encampment under the protection of the US military at Camp Grant, kidnapping Nest Feather and other Apache children. 
   
   
   
  In Tucson, while Valeria finds fulfillment in her work as a seamstress, Raúl struggles to hide from her his role in the bloody attack, and Nest Feather, adopted by a Mexican couple there, tries to hold on to her Apache heritage in a culture that rejects her very being. Against the backdrop of the massacre trial, Valeria and Nest Feather's lives intersect in the church, as Valeria seeks spiritual guidance for the decision she must make and Nest Feather prepares for a Christian baptism.
