Book excerpt: As a young girl in Michigan, Bella Colquhoun knows she’ll be a writer. It’s not easy for a woman in the 1920s to have a career of her own. She decides to never marry, but Ray promises to support her dreams. No one could have anticipated the railroad accident that would claim his life, teaching Bella things she never wanted to know about investigative journalism. She moves to New York to attend Columbia University, but she never loses touch with the families back in Michigan, brought together by a nephew given Ray’s name. She eventually researches the family tree and decides to record the interrelated stories of extraordinary women who never quite became who they thought they would be. Across four generations, Bella traces the stories of women confronted by societal challenges as they struggle toward more than ordinary lives. Bella’s family saga begins with European immigration to the Midwest and moves with the younger generations across 20th century America into the Pacific and even Africa. From women’s suffrage to civil rights, the Titanic to the Great Depression, these women face conflict with spouses and family members related to gender roles, childbearing, politics, and education. Yet, they find the strength to be someone, driven to rise above the challenges of a work-in-progress America.

Book excerpt: A nobleman trying to protect a woman’s virtue discovers he longs to seduce her himself in this Regency romance from a New York Times–bestselling author. After the death of her dear father, Georgiana Hartley returns home to England—only to be confronted by the boorish advances of her wretched cousin. Knowing no one, she flees to Dominic Ridgely’s estate, hoping the nobleman will bestow a neighborly kindness upon her. The haughty viscount hears Georgiana’s plea to find her a position as a lady’s companion with thinly veiled disgust. A lovely innocent such as Miss Hartley subjected to that base existence? The very idea was preposterous. Instead, he takes matters into his own hands and introduces her to his sister’s influence. Suddenly, Georgiana is transformed into a lady who charms the ton with ease and draws a bevy of suitors at every turn. Everything is unfolding according to Dominic’s plan . . . until he realizes that he desires Georgiana for his own.

Book excerpt: “Passion. I feel it coming off of you in heated waves. Now lift your bow and play these notes using that damned passion to bring out what this piece needs.” After years of struggling, Lilith Crane finally lands a job as a cellist with a major orchestra. To say she is thrilled is an understatement. Everything is coming up roses, until the sexy new conductor, Bella Lombardi, takes a personal interest in her. Normally, she’d be excited by the attention, but every time they’re together, Lilith can’t tell if the conductor wants to help her professionally, or desires something more intimate. Bella Lombardi’s career is flying high now that she’s the musical director of a prominent orchestra. Better yet, there’s a new cellist she can’t take her eyes off. But after a failed romance and family drama, she has sworn off women forever. She can’t deny the heat building between her and Lilith, but the only way to move forward with her desires involves acknowledging a secret she’s kept hidden for years. Passion is the first book in the Playing For Her duet. It’s the story of an insanely talented genius who appears to have it all, but realizes she has nothing without the woman she loves by her side. If you love the works of Jea Hawkins, Hildred Billings, Harper Bliss, or Clare Lydon, this is an excellent choice for you.
