  In Hooked on You, the first Maple Falls novel, opposites attract when an artist comes back home to help the grandmother who raised her and falls for the local hometown sports hero. Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber and Denise Hunter. 
  She never wanted to come back. He never wants to leave. The town of Maple Falls has plans for them both. 
  Riley McAllister is living the dream in New York City--if the dream means being a struggling mixed-media artist, part-time food delivery driver, and having a carefully curated social media to hide all of the above. She refuses to admit defeat and move back to small-town Maple Falls, but when her grandmother breaks her leg sliding into third base during a softball game (she was safe, by the way), Riley reluctantly agrees to go home and help the woman who raised her--while secretly hoping she can convince Mimi to sell her house and yarn shop and move in with a good friend. Then Riley can return to her new life in NYC, on her own and for good. 
  But Mimi has her own plans, which include setting Riley up with local baseball star Hayden Price, who returned to Maple Falls after an injury ended his major league career. Now he works at his father's hardware store, coaches the church softball team, and worries about the declining town. It's not the life he dreamed of having. 
  With a little meddling and a lot of kindness from the town, Hayden and Riley find themselves unexpectedly falling for each other as they discover the true meaning of home. 
  Welcome to Maple Falls, where everyone knows your name and your business. 
  Like stepping into a Hallmark movie, Hooked on You will give you all the small-town vibes, complete with a set of busy-body older women. Escape into the low stakes but fully heartwarming and low-spice romance which might just inspire you to pick up a new craft. 
  "A sweet, refreshing tale of idyllic small-town life, family, and unexpected romance, Hooked on You is the perfect read to cozy up with on a rainy day." --Melissa Ferguson, multi-award-winning author of The Cul-de-Sac War

  It's Dangerous to Believe -...

  Mary Eberstadt, “one of the most acute and creative social observers of our time,” (Francis Fukuyama) shines a much-needed spotlight on a disturbing trend in American society: discrimination against traditional religious belief and believers, who are being aggressively pushed out of public life by the concerted efforts of militant secularists. 
  In It’s Dangerous to Believe, Mary Eberstadt documents how people of faith—especially Christians who adhere to traditional religious beliefs—face widespread discrimination in today’s increasingly secular society. Eberstadt details how recent laws, court decisions, and intimidation on campuses and elsewhere threaten believers who fear losing their jobs, their communities, and their basic freedoms solely because of their convictions. They fear that their religious universities and colleges will capitulate to aggressive secularist demands. They fear that they and their families will be ostracized or will have to lose their religion because of mounting social and financial penalties for believing. They fear they won’t be able to maintain charitable operations that help the sick and feed the hungry. 
  Is this what we want for our country? 
  Religious freedom is a fundamental right, enshrined in the First Amendment. With It’s Dangerous to Believe Eberstadt calls attention to this growing bigotry and seeks to open the minds of secular liberals whose otherwise good intentions are transforming them into modern inquisitors. Not until these progressives live up to their own standards of tolerance and diversity, she reminds us, can we build the inclusive society America was meant to be.

  Vital Message

  Arthur Conan Doyle

  The bestselling author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries expands upon his thoughts in The New Revelation with evidence of a coming spiritual transformation.   A Second Dawn will come not when the spiritual descends to us, but by the ascent of our material plane to the spiritual, and the blending of the two phases of existence. This is what Arthur Conan Doyle proposes as the cure for a world thrown into political and religious tumult after the First World War. With human failing and corruption thrown into stark relief, reform is necessary—readjustments based on the certainty of life after death and a sense of responsibility for our own spiritual development.   In The Vital Message, Doyle asserts that Modern Spiritualism is the movement destined to bring vitality to the dead and cold religions. With the arrival of two very convincing forms of mediumship, the direct voice and spirit photography, there is greater proof than ever of Spiritualism’s claims that the soul and personality survive. The challenge is for religious leaders to embrace Spiritualism as their greatest ally. Doyle goes on to lay out what the benefits of this transformation will mean to the human psyche and the world.
