Synopsis

A witty, moving tale of monsters and modern life from the award-winning author of Cackle and The Return. For readers looking for a story of sisterhood, complicated families and love with a bit more bite...
Rory Morris isn't thrilled to be moving back to her hometown. There are bad memories there. But her twin sister, Scarlett, is pregnant and needs support, so Rory returns to the place she thought she'd put in her rearview. After a night out at a bar where she runs into Ian, an old almost-flame, she hits a large animal with her car. And when she gets out to investigate, she's attacked.
Rory survives, miraculously, but life begins to look and feel different. She's unnaturally strong, with an aversion to silver—and suddenly the moon has her in its thrall. She's changing into someone else—something else. But does that mean she's putting those close to her in danger? Or is embracing the wildness inside her the key to acceptance?
This darkly comedic love story is a brilliantly layered portrait of trauma, rage, and vulnerability.

    Jerry McNeal didn’t ask to be born with the gift of premonition. Nor did he ask to be haunted by the ghost of a K-9 police dog that doesn’t even appear to like him. And yet, in the second book in The Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry finds himself saddled with both. 
As Jerry struggles to coexist with his new ghostly companion, he must also follow the feeling that warns him of imminent danger in order to save Savannah - a psychic medium who unknowingly puts her own life at risk when she refuses to give her client bad news. 
Will Pennsylvania State Trooper McNeal be able to find the dog another companion to attach itself to? Or will Jerry finally accept things he has no power to change and make a decision that will alter his life forever?

    A spirit who calls himself Dog, reincarnates into a new life while trying to retain the memories of his last life experiences as they quickly drift away. Dog thinks he is here to save a little girl, but a couple who call themselves "Babe", takes him from his mission and sends him on a new adventure with a blind Pitbull named Ruka, and a RV that looks to be falling apart. Synchronicities and destiny take over and send Dog down a path a lot of souls never return from. Can he accept his own faith with the help of a blind companion? 
Paws To Prophecies is an incredible read from start to finish. It takes you on an unforgettable journey, letting you experience the world through the eyes of a dog. The way the author captures the dog's thoughts, movements, and life is so vivid and heartfelt that you find yourself fully immersed in their perspective. 
The storytelling is masterful, with an urgency that keeps you hooked, even in th quieter moments. You can't help but root for the main characters-they're so lovable and inspiring. You'll laugh from your gut, cry from your heart, and feel every emotion in between as you follow their journey. 
At its core, this is a story about love, strength, and bravery. It's about embracing life's challenges, staying true to yourself, and finding connection-with others, the world, and with God. The writing is beautifully poetic, weaving these themes together in a way that is both deeply moving and unforgettable. This is the kind of book that stays with you, long after you turn the final page. 
“(This) story is romance, friendship and family, loyalty, bravery, love and trust, being creative and open, and being a good human and allowing ourselves to love even when it hurts—plus, honestly, a million more—all readers will be able to identify with this!” ~Editor~

    In this poetic and haunting tale set in contemporary Appalachia, New York Times bestselling author Ron Rash illuminates lives shaped by violence and a powerful connection to the land. 
Les, a long-time sheriff just three-weeks from retirement, contends with the ravages of crystal meth and his own duplicity in his small Appalachian town. 
Becky, a park ranger with a harrowing past, finds solace amid the lyrical beauty of this patch of North Carolina. 
Enduring the mistakes and tragedies that have indelibly marked them, they are drawn together by a reverence for the natural world. When an irascible elderly local is accused of poisoning a trout stream, Les and Becky are plunged into deep and dangerous waters, forced to navigate currents of disillusionment and betrayal that will force them to question themselves and test their tentative bond—and threaten to carry them over the edge. 
Echoing the heartbreaking beauty of William Faulkner and the spiritual isolation of Carson McCullers, Above the Waterfall demonstrates once again the prodigious talent of “a gorgeous, brutal writer” (Richard Price) hailed as “one of the great American authors at work today” (Janet Maslin, New York Times).
