But some chores are no work at all, like grooming young Jack. At eight months, his rough foal coat has shed out, leaving a smooth, rich silk, like chocolate. As for Black George, such a good horse, it turns out he’s a natural jumper. When he and Abby clear four feet easy as pie, heads start to turn at the ring—buyers’ heads—and Abby knows Daddy won’t turn down a good offer. Then a letter arrives from a private investigator, and suddenly Abby stands to lose not one horse but two. The letter states that Jack’s mare may have been sold to the Lovitts as stolen goods. A mystery unfolds, more surprising than Abby could ever expect. Will she lose her beloved Jack to his rightful owners?

A life you yourself may be living and questioning... So many people are feeling trapped and uncertain as their life unfolds. How exactly did your dreams pass you by? No matter who you are—how old you are or where you are in life—you can find that place of youthful energy and excitement again. It starts by returning to your own Orchard Canyon. Sometimes the best thing you can do in business and in life is to reinvent yourself. To go forward and embrace something new. Or... return to an earlier time and capture a dream that has eluded you. Sometimes that truth comes to you against your will. From unusual sources. When you least expect it. Destiny happens with or without your consent. Journey with us to Orchard Canyon, a real place tucked between the red rocks of Sedona, Arizona and the picturesque Oak Creek. Once there, you may discover that what was old is new and what you thought was impossible in your life can really happen. If you let it. Return to Orchard Canyon is a story that vividly captures the real feelings too many people have today. A sense of working for a paycheck, giving up their lives to make a living, and throwing any dreams they may have had aside as impractical, impossible. A trade-off... for survival. Return to Orchard Canyon dispels the myth that living means sacrificing and replaces it with the reality that our nation was built on the backs of dreamers who took risks. Why not you? Why not today? Why not return to your own Orchard Canyon. Inspiring and actionable, this book will show you the way.

It’s a superbly written action-adventure thriller that explodes with romantic sexiness that can only be described as sensual. * What Happens after the fairy tale ending? Belle didn’t know Captain Bryce Mabo ‘Wolf’ Cameron well, but she knew one thing for certain: she loved him and would happily follow him anywhere, even to the end of the Earth. She left her high-pressure job as a forensic accountant in New York to follow him to his homeland. What she didn’t know was just how hard life would be once she got to the end of the Earth, otherwise known as Australia’s Gulf Savannah. They got married in a whirlwind. Soon, the realisation has set in; she knew even less about the area around his home than she did him. Belle has to confront being a step-­mom, strange and dangerous wildlife, scorching heat, thick dust, and deadly cyclones. Worse still, action man Bryce was often called away for clandestine missions which were fraught with danger. Each time he went, she was never certain he'd be able to return. Will love be enough to keep Belle with Bryce, or will the harsh world of her romantic warrior be too much for her? * Join Belle as she learns just how much romance and regret can happen after the rings are exchanged and the ‘I do’s’ are said in this unmissable follow-up to Lifesaver in a Bikini.

Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Gemma Halliday comes a new fashionably fatal culinary mystery novel in the USA Today bestselling Wine & Dine Mysteries! Emmy Oak has always been a fan of her best friend Ava's handmade silver jewelry. So when Ava gets a chance to showcase her pieces at a charity fashion show for Wine Country's elite, both women are thrilled. That is, until the model wearing Ava's custom emerald necklace is murdered after her runway walk and the gem is stolen! The theft of the expensive jewel means Ava could lose everything, including her shop, Silver Girl... unless Emmy can help her track down a killer and find the missing emerald! While the enticing Detective Grant might be looking at the death as a burglary-gone-wrong, Emmy isn't so sure that's the case. The model's name was Gia Monroe, and Emmy quickly learns that she made her fair share of enemies in life. From the flamboyant designer overheard threatening her just before the fashion show, to her agent with a shady secret and a precarious hold on his talent, to an eccentric rival designer with a grudge, no one seems to be grieving Gia's death. And when Emmy discovers Gia may have had a mysterious stalker, she realizes any one of them could have murdered the model. Between running her small winery and navigating the catty world of high fashion, Emmy tries to stay one step ahead of the danger...before the killer strikes again! **Simple and delicious recipes and affordable wine pairings included!** "Ms. Halliday is the undisputed queen of the genre." ~ Fresh Fiction "I rank 'A Sip Before Dying' as one of my favorite fun reads.
