Book excerpt: Sarah is growing up fast. She swings on swings, slides down slides, and climbs trees. Whenever she falls, her mother sweeps her up in her arms and soothes away the hurt. Her mother is always there for her-on her first day of school, when she falls in love for the first time, and finally when she leaves home and starts a family of her own. It is then that Sarah realizes what a wonderful gift her mother has given her. As she watches over a daughter of her own, Sarah passes on that gift, helping her child through the trials of growing up with a gentle strength and enduring love. This beautiful testament to the powerful bond between mothers and daughters will move and inspire mothers while reassuring their daughters that they have a special safety net that will never let them down. Anna Strauss was only sixteen-years-old when she was inspired to write this story as a gift for her mother. Now her enchanting story makes a perfect gift to celebrate the special mother/daughter bond on Mother's Day, Graduation Day, and all year round.

In the waning days of summer, a lake appears, almost overnight, in the middle of Los Angeles. In an instant of either madness or revelation, convinced that the lake means to take her small son from her, Kristin becomes determined to stop it. Three thousand miles away, on the eve of a momentous event, another young woman -- with a bond to Kristin that she can't even know -- meets a mysterious figure who announces in the dark, "The Age of Chaos is here." Against a forbidden landscape that shimmers with destiny and yearning, Our Ecstatic Days finally takes place on the terrain of a defiant heart. Human connections multiply into astonishing twists of fate -- by which the wrongs of an obsolete century may be set right -- and parallel lives spin faster toward the possibility that they will once again unite, electrifying a vision of the century to come.
