Sinopsis

William Patterson White's "Paradise Bend" serves as a poignant exploration of the complexities and contradictions of human relationships set against the backdrop of a semi-rural American landscape. The narrative unfolds through a blend of lyrical prose and sharp dialogue, reflecting both the intimate struggles of its characters and the broader themes of aspiration and despair. White crafts a richly textured world that encapsulates the essence of mid-20th century America, intertwining moments of profound beauty and heartache to reveal the intricate tapestry of life in a seemingly idyllic setting. White, an accomplished author known for his keen insight into the human condition, draws from a wealth of personal experiences and observations that likely influenced the creation of "Paradise Bend". His ability to depict the nuances of everyday life and his profound understanding of social dynamics have positioned him as a significant voice in American literature. White's background in sociology further informs his narratives, emphasizing the interplay between individual choices and societal expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend "Paradise Bend" to readers seeking a deep and resonant literary experience. The book challenges its audience to reflect on their own lives, grappling with universal themes of love, loss, and the pursuit of happiness. White's profound storytelling will linger in the minds of readers, urging them to ponder the true meaning of paradise in their lives.

    When my boss at Bluebird Pottery, Sydney, left me in charge while she went on vacation with her girlfriend, I wasn't looking forward to it. During my first few hours, a tall, stunning stranger walked in, and I could barely breathe. Of course I ruined everything by spilling coffee all over her. What I didn't expect was for her to push me up against the sink and kiss the hell out of me when I tried to help her clean up in the bathroom. 
     
     
     
    I never thought I'd see her again, and then she showed up to my book club and introduced herself as Ryan Jewel, the heiress to a candle company fortune and is so far out of my league, we're not even on the same planet. Still, I keep running into her in Arrowbridge, and it doesn't feel like a coincidence. 
     
     
     
    At first, I'm happy to be sucked into Ryan's glittering orbit. Everything is first class all the way, and it's nice to have a little luxury in my life. Even beyond the money, I'm dazzled by her. Underneath her chilly exterior is someone who's secretly kind, and funny, and who cares fiercely for those she loves. 
     
     
     
    It doesn't take long for me to completely fall for her, but could she ever want a small-town life with someone like me? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Can an old electric guitar help when what Roland Hope really needs is a Christmas miracle?  
    "You made me cry. Thank you for a true, not cheesy, but great Christmas story!" – Tina Lincoln  
    It had been one year, and Roland Hope had still not learned a damn thing. Now, the week before Christmas, his world is falling apart. 
    His wife wants a divorce. His siblings hate him. Even his drunk, homeless father tells him to bugger off. 
    And his career as a high-paid contract negotiator is in danger of imploding if he wavers from the ruthless tactics that propelled him to a life of privilege. 
    In this contemporary holiday story, Roland turns to an unlikely source of inspiration – an old Fender Stratocaster guitar gifted to him by his once-famous musical father. 
    Facing the prospect of his bleakest Christmas ever, Roland discovers the old guitar still has some tricks left in it, as he rekindles a love for music he thought had died long ago. 
    In the spirit of It’s a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol, the story of one man’s musical salvation will confirm your faith in the most magical season of the year. 
    Audiobook version includes original music, 'Is It Really Christmas' - performed by Matt Davies, Ania Hejnar and Duke Holmes

    Book 17 of the nationally bestselling Joanne Kilbourn series is classic Gail Bowen: masterfully compelling storytelling that combines a modern, urban family with a gripping, satisfying mystery. 
    As Joanne Kilbourn-Shreve, her husband, Zack, and their soon-to-be seventeen-year-old daughter, Taylor, rush through the rain from their cottage to their car, the Thanksgiving weekend they just spent at the lake with Zack’s law partners is already slipping away, burnished into memory as pleasantly as the hundreds of other weekends the Falconer-Shreve families have shared at Lawyers’ Bay. Thoughts of the weekend past will now focus on the future and be prefaced by the words “next time.” 
    Within weeks, a triple homicide will rip apart the lives of those related to the lawyers who, at the end of their first year in law school, only half-jokingly styled themselves “The Winners’ Circle.” Dazed by grief, Joanne will seek answers to an impossible question: “Why did they die?” 
    The facts behind the suicide of Christopher Altieri, known by his law partners as “the conscience of The Winners’ Circle,” appear to provide insights, but for Joanne those insights raise new, unsettling questions. Knitting this powerful narrative together is Joanne’s unshakeable belief that the only thing worse than knowing is not knowing.

    With the sting from not being drafted still fresh, Dalton Boyd gets sent to the strictest coach with the most rules in summer league ball. 
    Was it mentioned the coach also serves as his host family? No? Well, everyone knows the player staying at the coach’s house has the most brutal regime. 
    But here’s the thing. 
    Dalton wouldn’t be in this situation had he not followed his heart and ended up ghosted. As much as he’d like to change the past, he can’t. 
    So, he sets a goal to stay out of trouble long enough to get through this summer and impress the coach and scouts. 
    It’s an obtainable goal. Or so Dalton thought until walking into his coach’s home and seeing the reason for rule number one—don’t touch the coach’s daughter—is none other than Cassie Greenburg, his rule follower ghost. 
    Summer just got a whole lot more challenging. 
    Book four in the Cessna U Wildcat series, Caught Looking, is a forbidden, second chance, stand-alone, sports romance. If you like sexy-hot, brooding baseball players, click to add Dalton Boyd!
