Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated artist and lead character designer of Brave, Ratatouille, and Despicable Me, Carter Goodrich, shows that sometimes, even the prickliest people—or the crankiest cacti—need a little love. Hank is the prickliest cactus in the entire world. He sits in a pot in a window that faces the empty desert, which is just how he likes it. So, when all manner of creatures—from tumbleweed to lizard to owl—come to disturb his peace, Hank is annoyed. He doesn’t like noise, he doesn’t like rowdiness, and definitely does not like hugs. But the thing is, no one is offering one. Who would want to hug a plant so mean? Hank is beginning to discover that being alone can be, well, lonely. So he comes up with a plan to get the one thing he thought he would never need: a hug from a friend.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty-two-year-old Janet Stevens was resolved to the fact that she may never get married. If she did, it would probably be to someone who would just fit into her lifestyle. Janet was an artist and a very independent young woman. Her mother, an immigrant from Scotland, died very suddenly from a heart attack at the age of fifty-one, and while cleaning out her mom's house she found a Journal written in her mother's handwriting. She decided to wait until she moved up to her new home in the beautiful Wine Country of California before sitting down to read the Journal. On a stormy day, sitting by the fire in her new home in Boonville, she started to read. It surprised her that her mother even kept a journal. At first it was fun to read about her mom as a young girl but further on secrets and deceptions came to the surface that hurt and confused her. She decides to take a trip to Elgin, the heart of Moray, in the mystical Highlands of Scotland where she hoped to unravel the secrets and lies. She was not prepared, however, to meet the man Jonathan Grant, son of a wealthy Scottish laird. This was the man that seemed to have eluded her for so long. But why did she have to meet him on such a distant shore.
