Book excerpt: THE RECLUSE is the third collection of poetry from the author and it forges a path greatly beyond its predecessors; If Only I Knew and Diary. It attempts a look into the social and economic mishaps of life that inadvertently leads to the abuse of opportunities by caring others. The Recluse is also a collection of poetry stemming from the desire of the individual at self-actualization by striving through writing for social and economic independence. It tells the tale in lines of challenges as witnessed and lastly, The Recluse delves while positing my dreams and aspirations, into the issues of religion and faith as I battle within and with those around me. Its culmination discusses the view of the average Nigerian who is politically conscious, of the ills the citizenry have been facing in the last 6yrs and the hope of changing what we can, at the next ballot, come 2015. This is the hope of the Nigerian youth; our dreams and aspirations as individuals and a whole.

When Charlene Waters’s boss married the new CEO of Wolfe Enterprises after a whirlwind romance, she brought her assistant along for the ride. Charlie now has a cushy new job at the billion dollar company, and she’s excited to begin her new venture. Roy Wolfe is a recluse. He’s never taken an active role in his family’s business, and he has no desire to now. He’s only in the office to deal with the fallout from his father’s murder. He, along with the rest of his siblings, have all been implicated. Meeting Charlie Waters with the gorgeous silver eyes complicates things. Their chemistry is immediate and passionate, but he can’t be what she deserves. Roy knows his father was hiding something even more sinister than his brothers and sister can imagine—something he witnessed years ago that he can’t bring to his conscious mind. But he must—for Charlie, and for his family. Or they may all pay the ultimate price.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She never thought time-travel was real. Until it happened to her... Researching her father's journals in her spare time was closest Francine came to time-travel and frankly, who would believe it? But when she's tossed back in time, she regrets she didn't pay more attention to the past... of course that's only after she finally admits to herself that she's been tossed into another world, much like a Victorian freaky-Friday. The first thing Francine has to reconcile is that a woman in Victorian England is a commodity. She's owned. Francine is no longer the powerful business woman she was only moments ago and on top of it all she's being chased by a man who wants her dead—or worse. Her only chance for safety lies in Gideon Trumbull the lionhearted—but evasive—duke who discovers her: terrified, running for her life, at the edge of his lands. What began as a compulsion to learn anything she could about him turns into an urgent need and she finds herself in an inescapable new reality—a world in which she doesn't belong. °•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•° Meanwhile... Gideon's brother Perry has likewise been caught up in an incident. Finding a stowaway housemaid in his carriage as he's bound for London will be the most life-changing moment of his life. She's plotting to seduce the rake who refuses to touch her. Propriety be damned. Getting him to teach her what love is seems like just the right challenge to sooth her damaged soul. Until the man who chased Francine sets his sites on someone much more accessible. The entire Trumbull family comes together to protect the women they've accepted into the fold in the first installment in the Trumbull Family Saga, The Rake and The Recluse.

Look for special features inside. Join the Random House Reader’s Circle for author chats and more. From the outside, Mill River looks like any sleepy little Vermont town where everyone knows everyone and people never need to lock their doors. There are newcomers for whom this appeals, from police officer Kyle Hansen and his daughter Rowen, who are starting over after heartache, to Claudia Simon, the schoolteacher who is determined to reinvent herself. But on closer inspection, there are those in Mill River—including a stealthy arsonist, a covetous nurse, and a pilfering priest—who have things they wish to hide. None more than the widow Mary McAllister, who for the past sixty years has secluded herself in her marble mansion overlooking the town. Most of the residents have never even seen the peculiar woman. Only the priest, Father O’Brien, knows the deep secrets that keep Mary isolated—and that, once revealed, will forever change the community. Praise for The Mill River Recluse “A heartwarming story.”—Examiner “[Darcie] Chan’s sweet novel displays her talent. . . . A comforting book about the random acts of kindness that hold communities together.”—Kirkus Reviews “A real page-turner.”—IndieReader “Chan does an amazing job with pacing while maintaining continuity and weaving universal themes such as friendship, love, new beginnings and overcoming adversities into small town life.”—RT Book Reviews “This debut novel is a genre-breaking thriller with romantic overtones that should appeal to both men and women.”—Huntington News “Chan’s compassionate novel . . . blends elements of mystery, suspense and romance . . . [and] culminates in a beautifully rendered denouement that rekindles hope for a troubled world.”—Shelf Awareness

Book excerpt: For many mystery readers, Alpine, Washington–Mary Daheim’s fictional small town in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains–has become a beloved second home, a delicious retreat from the stresses of life. Yet the editor of The Alpine Advocate, Emma Lord, knows all too well that the picturesque old logging town is loaded with scandal: family feuds, illicit romance, chicanery, and sometimes deadly violence. THE ALPINE RECLUSE In the middle of a hot midsummer night, Emma is awakened by fire trucks rushing to a blaze at the nearby home of newlyweds Tim and Tiffany Rafferty. At daybreak, Tiffany and her unborn child are safe, but Tim, never blessed with good luck in all his thirty-plus years, has perished in the fierce conflagration. Sheriff Milo Dodge suspects murder and arson, and rumors fly from the Burger Barn and Mugs Ahoy to the Grocery Basket and the Venison Inn. Some swear the Rafferty marriage was crumbling. Others hint at stock fraud. A few mention momentary sightings of a possibly mad recluse known as Old Nick. Sacrificing the heady enticements of a budding romance to nail down a great story, Emma shifts into high investigative gear while her fearless House & Home editor, Vida Runkel, rushes in where angels fear to tread: straight into the private lives of some of Alpine’s most respectable–and now terminally edgy–citizens. But neither Emma nor Vida suspects the unbelievable truth.
