  Solomon Trebeck's heart broke the night of his bi-awakening. 
   
   
   
  Fifteen years later, Sol's back in Cornwall where it happened, single, shy, and oh-so lonely. Teaching art to kids wasn't his life plan. Neither is raising a teenage nephew, but with no family left to support him, a live-in job at a boarding school becomes his life raft. 
   
   
   
  Problem: that life raft is sinking. 
   
   
   
  Solution: Sol's first love could have the cash to keep it afloat. 
   
   
   
  Reconnecting with Jace Pascoe might save the school—the one place Sol's nephew is happy. Asking for his help opens old wounds, but Jace helps to heal them, fusing Sol's broken heart back together. However, Jace has his own shadows, no matter how brightly his smile dazzles. 
   
   
   
  Falling for Jace again could be so easy. It could also be a huge risk when neither of them plans to stay in Cornwall forever . . . 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  The Free - A Novel

  In his heartbreaking yet hopeful fourth novel, award-winning author Willy Vlautin demonstrates his extraordinary talent for illuminating the disquiet of modern American life, captured in the experiences of three memorable characters looking for meaning in distressing times. 
  Severely wounded in the Iraq war, Leroy Kervin has lived in a group home for eight years. Frustrated by the simplest daily routines, he finds his existence has become unbearable. An act of desperation helps him disappear deep into his mind, into a world of romance and science fiction, danger and adventure where he is whole once again. 
  Freddie McCall, the night man at Leroy's group home, works two jobs yet still can't make ends meet. He's lost his wife and kids, and the house is next. Medical bills have buried him in debt, a situation that propels him to consider a lucrative—and dangerous—proposition. 
  Pauline Hawkins, a nurse, cares for the sick and wounded, including Leroy. She also looks after her mentally ill elderly father. Yet she remains emotionally removed, until she meets a young runaway who touches something deep and unexpected inside her. 
  In crystalline prose, both beautiful and devastating, this "major realist talent" (Seattle Post-Intelligencer) considers the issues transforming ordinary people's lives—the cost of health care, the lack of economic opportunity, the devastating scars of war—creating an extraordinary contemporary portrait that is also a testament to the resiliency of the human heart.

  Dreams are no longer safe. When the barrier between sleep and waking begins to fracture, whispers of an ancient power stir – and a world on the brink of collapse needs a protector it never asked for. Girvyn, a young scholar bound to a dangerous gift, is drawn into a conflict far beyond his understanding. What begins in dreams soon bleeds into reality, and the cost of failure will be measured in lives. 
  Untrained, untested, and haunted by forces he cannot control, Girvyn must navigate a world where allies are fragile, enemies relentless, and truth rarely what it seems. As war gathers and old ghosts awaken, every choice pushes him closer to a destiny he fears – and a power that may consume him if he falters. 
  Dark Rising is a richly layered epic fantasy blending immersive world-building, dream-magic, and hard-won character growth. This is a story of fractured alliances, hidden histories, and quiet moments where courage is forged long before battle begins. 
  This is Book One of The Dream Traveller series – a sweeping, high-stakes fantasy saga where each volume builds toward a larger reckoning.  
  Ideal for readers who enjoy epic fantasy with depth and momentum – where magic carries a cost, characters are shaped by consequence, and the journey matters as much as the destination. If you’re looking for a new fantasy series to sink into, this is where it begins. 
  Narrated by Peter Kenny, acclaimed for his performances in epic fantasy and science-fiction classics including The Witcher and works by Iain M. Banks.
