    Sometimes the greatest gifts aren't found under the tree.
     
    
     
    In the cozy town of Sugarville Grove, Charlie Keene quietly runs her beloved pizzeria, a tribute to the father she lost, carefully hiding her past as a tech millionaire. Haunted by painful Christmas memories, she has avoided the festive cheer that fills every corner of her adopted home—until a gentle-hearted adventurer starts to change everything.
     
    
     
    Max Hayes, the free-spirited brother of the Hayes clan, has returned to Sugarville to 
    plant roots after years of wandering the globe. With the purchase of the local country store and the sudden responsibility of raising a child, Max yearns for stability. When his journey intersects with Charlie’s, he finds himself drawn to her guarded heart, sensing the loneliness behind her brilliant smile.
     
    
     
    As they come together to build a warm, loving home for young Bianca, their shared purpose kindles a tender romance neither expected. But the shadow of past hurts—Charlie's devastating loss and Max's fear of inadequacy—threatens to dim their newfound happiness.
     
    
     
    Will Charlie and Max overcome their deepest fears to embrace the promise of love beneath the twinkling lights of Sugarville Grove? Or will old wounds rob them of the joyful Christmas they both deserve?
     
    
     
    Filled with warmth, humor, and heartfelt moments, Christmas Treasures is the perfect holiday listen for anyone who believes in the magic of second chances and the healing power of family and love.

    A powerful and lyrical debut: a botched robbery sets two men on conflicting journeys across the untamed landscape of the American West. 
    After an attempted horse theft goes tragically wrong, sixteen-year-old Caleb Bentley is on the run with his mean-spirited older brother across the American Southwest at the turn of the twentieth century. Caleb’s moral compass and inner courage will be tested as they travel the harsh terrain and encounter those who have carved out a life there, for good or ill. 
    Wealthy and bookish Randall Dawson, out of place in this rugged and violent country, is begrudgingly chasing after the Bentley brothers. With little sense of how to survive, much less how to take his revenge, Randall meets Charlotte, a woman experienced in the deadly ways of life in the West. Together they navigate the murky values of vigilante justice. 
    Powerful and atmospheric, lyrical and fast-paced, All Things Left Wild is a coming-of-age for one man, a midlife odyssey for the other, and an illustration of the violence and corruption prevalent in our fast-expanding country. It artfully sketches the magnificence of the American West as mirrored in the human soul.

    There is something about the number 3.    
     
    The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
     
    Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
     
    Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

    Murder isn't as much fun as it's made out to be, neither is being rescued by a grouchy cop.
    All Noel Chance wanted to do was ask a woman a few questions about a kidnapping that took place thirty-seven years ago for his cold case podcast. He didn't think someone would shoot her right in front of him. 
    While hiding from the murderer by the dill pickle in the food cellar, he calls Bo, his brother's best friend, who is a cop. Bo takes his sweet time to come to the rescue, and once he does, he's surprised Noel was telling the truth. 
    Bo then kidnaps him and takes him to his cabin in the woods while the police investigate the murder. Okay, maybe it isn't kidnapping, and more a case of keeping him safe, but still. What is he to do with a hot but grumpy man in a cabin with only one bed?
