  Every night at midnight, Red watches the purple clouds dance across the Parisian sky. Once, their movements soothed her; now, they remind her of everything she's lost: her art, her faith, and the quiet connection she once shared with her wife, Marisol.
  When Marisol insists on a lunch date with old friends at a trendy new restaurant called the Raving Bull, Red reluctantly agrees. But what begins as a simple outing becomes something strange and transformative, a surreal encounter that forces both women to confront the distance between them. As illusion and emotion blur, they find the truth of love might lie not in perfection, but in rediscovering the green light that first brought them together.
  Can Red and Marisol find their way back to each other before the color fades for good?

  Rawan's necklace gleamed with a unique brilliance before Adam's eyes. Amazed, he asked, "Do the islanders even know the sun, to name their stone after it?"
  
  "The hidden sun above the canopy holds profound signifi-cance as the primary source of energy for the outside world's creatures. But these unique stones somehow serve as the islanders' own sun. Perhaps they actually fulfill their particular needs in the sun's absence, which is why they chose such a strange name for them! They are the island's most treasured possession, valued above their own lives... but we need it. We're not leaving without it!"

  When Knights Were Bold

  This book is in no degree an attempt to relate the involved and intricate history of the Middle Ages. Its plan is, rather, to present pictures of the manner of life and habits of thought of the people who lived between the eighth and fifteenth centuries. Our writings and our everyday conversation are full of their phrases and of allusions to their ideas. Many of our thoughts and feelings and instincts, of our very follies and superstitions, have descended to us from them. To become better acquainted with them is to explain ourselves. (Summary from the Preface of When Knights Were Bold.)
