Sinopsis

In the heart of Dallas where the Trinity River's bank cradles warmth from morning fires, a tale unfurls - modest as a tale but grand as the hopes within. Amidst the grit of street living, an unexpected adventure beckons—a journey from hardship to the unfamiliar embrace of four solid walls and the companionship that sustains through trials. This is the story of unlikely friendships fostered over meals shared under open skies, of lives intersecting in pursuit of survival, work, education, love, and the pursuit of a sanctuary to call home. It is a story of transformation, not just of spaces with fresh paint and the determination of those willing to wield the brush, but of hearts and minds opened to possibilities once veiled by circumstance. Here within these pages lies an odyssey; an exploration of human resilience, the power of community and the silent orchestrations of the divine presenting gifts of second chances.
In this heartwarming tapestry of life, an individual's journey through the trials of work and higher education blooms into a testament of resilience and fellowship. Woven within are threads of compassion, where unlikely allies emerge to offer a lifeline in times of struggle, affirming the profound power of human connection. As we follow the protagonist’s path, graced by divine intervention and fortuitous encounters, we witness a celebration of spirit and help. This narrative is an ode to those who reach out a hand in support and to the beauty of embracing our shared humanity, as it underscores the transformative spirit of faith, kinship, and the enduring pursuit of knowledge.

    Pilgrim's Progress meets Mad Max in this post-apocalyptic road-trip. On the day he saves his fortress town from raiders, Chris Walker makes a devastating discovery that will overturn everything he believes and force him to leave the safety of his home. As he heads out into a shattered land, Chris must fight for his life and battle his own demons as well. 
    Will he find a cure for the Tox that is spreading through his nervous system? Will he finally learn the terrifying truth of its origin? Can he put his trust in the mysterious Envoy and his promises? 
    I love Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress and so when I heard that Andrew Moody was writing a post-apocalyptic transformation of the story, I just had to get my hands on it. And it did not disappoint! The world of the Autonomous Zone is vivid and richly imagined, its characters diverse and beautifully rendered, its insights into human nature mature and incisive. Not only that, but the deep spiritual truths to be mined from these pages left me thinking about the story for some time after I finished it. A book as thought-provoking and spiritually rich as the beloved Christian classic it is based on, but with its own original flair and fresh application for modern issues, The Blood Miles is a story to be devoured in one sitting, then closely contemplated over many more.

    Charlotte "Charli" Monroe: After years of bit parts in forgettable Hallmark movies and embarrassing commercials for feminine hygiene products, I'd been given my big-budget break: the lead in an Edwardian era social drama set on a sprawling estate in Sussex. Everything was going great until I discovered my costar and current flame was banging his way through the cast. That's when this southern girl channeled her inner Scarlet O'Hara by hurling a vase at him. Turns out the owner of said vase, the infuriating Earl Whittingham, did give a damn about the priceless heirloom. Just as I was imagining a life of servitude to pay him back, he gave me an unorthodox proposal. 
     
     
     
    Randall "Rand" Halsey, Earl Whittingham: Being a member of the British aristocracy can be a royal pain, especially when it comes to the required social season. The only thing worse than having to attend all the myriad of events is attending them single. Throw in the likelihood of running into my ex-wife with her new boy-toy and it's bloody insufferable. I'd resigned myself to keeping a stiff upper lip while drowning my sorrows in Lagavulin when an opportunity fell into my lap. Actually, it crashed into the wall of my drawing room. Charlie is used to playing a part, but she'll need to turn an Oscar-worthy one to prove she's in love with me.

    “A joy to read. ... Emotional, clever, and humorous, Holding Her Breath will engross readers with its academic atmosphere and family drama.” — Booklist 
    A moving and “whip smart” (Sunday Telegraph) debut novel, following a former competitive swimmer and granddaughter of a famous Irish poet as she comes of age in the shadow of her family’s tragic past, perfect for fans of Sally Rooney, Lily King’s Writers & Lovers, and Elif Batuman’s The Idiot.

    When Beth Crowe starts university, she is haunted by the ghost of her potential as a competitive swimmer. With her Olympic dreams shattered after a breakdown, she is suddenly free to create a fresh identity for herself outside of swimming. Striking up a friendship with her English major roommate, Beth soon finds herself among a literary crowd of people who adore the poetry of her grandfather, Benjamin Crowe, who died tragically before she was born. Beth’s mother and grandmother rarely talk about what happened to Benjamin, and Beth is unsettled to find that her classmates may know more about her own family history than she does. 
    As the year goes on, Beth embarks on a secret relationship with an older postdoctoral researcher—and on a quest to discover the truth about Benjamin and his widow, her beloved grandmother Lydia. The quest brings her into an archive that no scholar has ever seen, and to a person who knows things about her family that nobody else knows. 
    Holding Her Breath is a razor-sharp, moving, and seriously entertaining novel about complicated love stories, ambition, and grief—and a young woman coming fully into her powers.
