    Ancelet Bay, Louisiana, on the surface is a peaceful and quiet little town. It seemed to be the perfect place for workaholic Rusty Martinez to detox and deal with destructive habits that had affected her health.

    Rusty's mental and emotional transformation becomes a wild ride. Police Chief Kirsten Flyte doesn't even realize that she's on the journey with Rusty as they leave life's back roads and hop onto the cerebral expressway that takes them through chaos, temporary insanity, and eventually bliss. 
     
     
     
    Come to Ancelet Bay with Robin Alexander, and let her tell you a tale about personal discovery, life, and love in her typical comedic fashion. Watch out for the flamingos.

    In 'My Name is Philippa,' prepare to be moved by a powerful story of love, transformation, and resilience. Katherine E. Zappone explains, This is primarily a love story. Philippa Ryder's journey to embracing her true self as a transgender woman has left an indelible mark on Irish culture. Growing up as a boy in the 1960s, she felt out of place, drawn to dressing in her sister's and later her wife's clothes. It wasn't until the 1990s that she discovered she wasn't alone in these feelings. Navigating the challenging path of transitioning from male to female, 'My Name is Philippa' tells an extraordinary tale of love, understanding, and the unwavering support of a family who stayed united as Philippa transformed from husband and father to wife and mother. In this heartfelt account, Philippa addresses many questions about what it means to be transgender, detailing the physical and emotional aspects of transition. Her story contributes to the global pursuit of freedom and empowerment for all individuals, regardless of gender identity. Through her honesty, courage, and perseverance, Philippa breaks the silence and encourages others to find their joy by embracing their authentic selves. This audiobook is a valuable resource for the transgender community, their allies, and anyone questioning their gender identity, as well as parents of transgender children and those seeking to learn more about transgender issues. Additionally, it offers insights for professionals in the Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion sectors, Employee Resource Groups across corporate and public sectors, and health and social service personnel.

    Wilby 
     
     
     
    Sometimes you meet someone and you just know they're going to mean something to you. That's what happened with Col Langdon. Sure, he's a cranky, uptight New Yorker who seems strangely immune to my serenading, but he's been living rent-free in my head since the night we met. I'm the king of casual. But with Col . . . it's different. 
     
     
     
    When he shows up in my hometown, I hope it means we get to rekindle what we started in Sydney. But then I find out the real purpose of his visit, and my feelings for him explode into a volcanic rage. If Col thinks he can waltz in here and destroy my family, I'll give him the biggest fight of his life.
