Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this #1 New York Times bestselling novel of first love and second chances, former high school sweethearts confront the painful truths of their past to build a promising future—together. "Everyone wanted to believe that endless love was possible. She'd believed in it once, too, back when she was eighteen." In the spring of 1984, high school students Amanda Collier and Dawson Cole fell deeply, irrevocably in love. Though they were from opposite sides of the tracks, their love for one another seemed to defy the realities of life in their small town in North Carolina. But as the summer of their senior year came to a close, unforeseen events would tear the young couple apart, setting them on radically divergent paths. Now, twenty-five years later, Amanda and Dawson are summoned back home for the funeral of Tuck Hostetler, the mentor who once gave shelter to their high school romance. Neither has lived the life they imagined . . . and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever changed their lives. As Amanda and Dawson carry out the instructions Tuck left behind for them, they realize that everything they thought they knew—about Tuck, about themselves, and about the dreams they held dear—was not as it seemed. Forced to confront painful memories, the former lovers will discover undeniable truths about the choices they have made. And in the course of a single, searing weekend, they will ask of the living, and the dead: Can love truly rewrite the past?

Book excerpt: A brother's best friend story from NYT and USA Today bestselling author Evelyn Adams about about a woman who plans for every contigency and a man who runs from order. Right into each other's arms. Adeline Ryan has always played by the rules and taken the road most traveled, but that hasn’t gotten her anywhere close to where she wants to be. She’s stuck in the same small town she grew up in with too many siblings, an overbearing mother, and a job she hates but can’t quit because she inherited it from her late father. But now that her high school crush and brother’s best friend is back in town, all the old rules have flown out the window. Tech guru Mason Andrews swore he’d never return to the town that considered his mental neurospiciness a form of juvenile delinquency. But his much loved aunt’s illness has brought him back, and now that he’s created a billion-dollar business, he’s been given a rock star’s welcome by the same people who used to look down on him. All he has to do is follow the rules to remain the town’s new Golden Boy. But Mason never met a rule he didn’t want to break, and that might include falling in love with his best friend’s little sister. With the clock ticking on his time in Beaton, the woman who color codes her multi-tab plans and the man who thrives on chaos are going to have to learn how to bend if they want a chance at happily ever after. *~*~*~* Aided by her grumpy sexy handyman, Grace is trying to save her farm, but the goats and an amateur arsonist have other ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love is always a beautiful thing when it’s shared, respected, and cherished. The moment it becomes any less than those three, your relationship and sanity are damned to hell. Don’t believe it? Just ask Paradise “Goody” Maverick. Once upon a time, she’d been the hopeless romantic type who thought she’d fall in love and stay that way forever, only to be painfully reminded that forever doesn’t always last. High school sweethearts and the only loves they’ve ever known, Goody and Kayson Miller have lived happily, chased dreams, and established a life together. The house, the cars, the success, and anything else Goody could name, they’d grinded and gotten it together. She had just gotten to the peak of her happiness when life decided to come around and knock her down. What happens when love is no longer enough? What do you do when you’re betrayed and left by your best friend? Who’s to blame when you have nothing left to give, not even to yourself? The idea of second chances seems utterly detestable, so when Jerrico shows up looking, smelling, and acting like a knight in shining armor, what’s a girl to do? Do you suck it up and move on, or do you harbor rage and bitterness? Ask Goody, she knows. The heart of the heartless, hollowed and emptied by that thing called love. Fed up and against anything that involves a man and her emotions, she’s prepared to kiss Jerrico goodbye, or so she thinks... welcome to the life of a SAVAGE. Men, remember, anything you can do... women can do better. Heads up, Queens, this one is for us!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s funny how love has a way of changing things. Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, life throws you a curveball. Marcellus Blake knew that better than anyone. He’d been living his life on a private high until being inadvertently forced to expose himself. Not at all accustomed to explaining himself or considering any needs outside of his own, he’s become immersed in one of the most difficult situations of his life. Not realizing it until it was too late, Marcellus finds his heart torn between two women with no way out. Everything that seemed right and natural has now become the biggest fight of his life. How does he walk away from everything he’s known to embark on an unknown road with uncertain feelings? More than willing and inadvertently eager to trust his newest feelings, Marcellus pursues what feels right, only to be met with one barrier after the next. What’s a man to do when he’s broken the heart that was made for him? How does he retract the feelings that were never supposed to form? Where does he start picking up the regretful pieces that he’s lost? Above all, when does the woman he wants, begin to want him back? ...It’s all fun and games until the person you love no longer loves you back...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever prayed for something harder than you’ve ever prayed for anything, and then it happens, and you don’t know if you’re really ready for it? Well, so has Goody. Praying for a good man then actually getting one were two totally different things. In her mind, her world would be complete if that happened, so naturally, when it did, she was happy but then came fear. Fear of what the future would hold, or whether or not she was even good enough for her answered prayers. Lucky for her, Jerrico Blake is well equipped and intently focused on Goody and every need she has. A man with many honorable traits, Jerrico is a Godsend, but he’s not to be taken lightly. Though he can withstand the toughest times with the hardest people, that doesn’t mean he wants to. Desiring love and happiness as much as the next person, Goody’s rejection may have worn thin. Not sure whether she’s worth the fight, Jerrico second guesses his initial intentions. Will Goody’s past destroy her future, or will she be woman enough to pick up her pieces and put her own future back together?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lives of four generations of one Louisiana family, woven together by a master storyteller Tracing a family's roots is like taking a journey through the years. In the case of one Louisiana family, that journey can be charted by the books they read and loved. The journey begins in 1939 with Rose, who moves with her mother and siblings from rural Texas to live with their estranged grandfather in the Louisiana bayou. Rose connects with this flavorful community through her love of books and by driving a bookmobile. Two decades later, Merle Henry, Rose's son, is more passionate about trapping a mink than about reading, although there is a place in his heart for Old Yeller. In 1973, Merle Henry's daughter, Annabeth, feels torn between reading fairy tales and a crush on a real-life knight in shining armor. And in the present day, Annabeth's son, Kyle, finds himself in a bind: he hates reading, but the only summer job he can get is at the library. In her people-smart way, Kimberly Willis Holt introduces us to a Louisiana family: touching, lyrical, and always intriguing, their stories reveal the powerful connections between four generations. Part of Me is a 2007 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER • NAMED ONE OF TIME’S TEN BEST NONFICTION BOOKS OF THE DECADE • PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST • NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST • ONE OF OPRAH’S “BOOKS THAT HELP ME THROUGH” • NOW AN HBO ORIGINAL SPECIAL EVENT Hailed by Toni Morrison as “required reading,” a bold and personal literary exploration of America’s racial history by “the most important essayist in a generation and a writer who changed the national political conversation about race” (Rolling Stone) NAMED ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL BOOKS OF THE DECADE BY CNN • NAMED ONE OF PASTE’S BEST MEMOIRS OF THE DECADE • NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • O: The Oprah Magazine • The Washington Post • People • Entertainment Weekly • Vogue • Los Angeles Times • San Francisco Chronicle • Chicago Tribune • New York • Newsday • Library Journal • Publishers Weekly In a profound work that pivots from the biggest questions about American history and ideals to the most intimate concerns of a father for his son, Ta-Nehisi Coates offers a powerful new framework for understanding our nation’s history and current crisis. Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.
