Book Description
From best-selling author and design icon Chris Madden comes the first book on her design philosophy, and how to achieve her comfortable, chic style. Design expert Chris Madden has spent years chronicling other people’s beautiful rooms. Now, for the first time, she presents her own design sensibility as illustrated by examples such as her elegant one hundred-year-old carriage house in upstate New York and a mid-century modern family getaway in the mountains of Vermont. Organized by type of room, each house is explored—from entryways to bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms, mudrooms, greenhouses, and terraces, as well as specialty rooms like yoga studios and a man’s study—through rich photography and dozens of practical styling tips. Readers learn how to layer fabrics and colors for seasonal decorating; how to repurpose materials; and how to recognize a room’s quality of light. Also featured are sidebars on caring for guests, collecting, and living in an old house versus a modern house. An avid gardener, Madden explores the way outdoor space frames and supports a house. This lush and elegant volume is an eminently practical resource of ideas for creating rooms in which to celebrate family, entertain friends, and provide personal sanctuary.

A Home For Christmas written by Paul A. Lynch tells the story of a man thirty-five years of age Jimmy Hendricks who lives with his wife Kathrine and eleven-year-old daughter Jessica in the fictional town of Hopeville. However, this town isn't what the name suggests. In truth, Hopeville isn't filled with hope, but just despair, trouble, and disappointment. Jimmy's dream is to get a home for Christmas, however, he fears within himself that his dream will not be made into reality because he earns a little money and he has a lot of bills to pay. Jimmy has been working at a toy factory for several years, but he is disappointed when the company goes bankrupt and has to be closed. Jimmy doesn't give up, though, as he looks for work around town. Kathrine also gets a job at a shelter on the opposite side of the town they live as a social worker. Jimmy meets upon his long time high school friend Bobby Daniels begging on the streets of the town in ragged clothes and shoes. Jimmy is somewhat surprised since Bobby was a brilliant kid. Bobby explains to Jimmy the reasons he has been on the streets. Jimmy helps his friend to a burger and some coffee at a restaurant downtown. Bobby and Jimmy ride on the bus where they meet an old woman who asked them if they know any plumber or gardener around. Both men are surprised as they get a perfect opportunity to do some work. The woman identifies herself as Miss Peterson an African American woman who lives in a huge apartment complex. In the end, Jimmy overcomes the challenges in his life and he didn't have to buy a house because the mayor of his town gave him one for solving the mystery of the missing Nativity Scene. This is a suitable read for teenagers, young adults, and adults throughout the world.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
A sweet feel-good second chance romance novel. A steamy version of this sweet romance was previously published as Home for Christmas under my pen name Susan Craig. That version is no longer available. Mac knew April Windham before she drove her car off the road during a freak Illinois snow storm. He knew her before she decided to leave Cedar Hill and return to St. Louis. And he knew her long before she fled her hometown to start over in Cedar Hill… Now he’s a grown-up single dad, but he’s never forgotten her. When he rescues her from her snowed-under car, all his adolescent hopes come rushing back, in the adult male version. He can’t get her out of his head, but she hasn’t recognized him. Yet. April Windham is done with chasing dreams or men. In the seven years since she left St. Louis, the developers who wrecked her career should have moved on. And if not, she doesn’t care. She’s shifted to selling residential properties and, when the opportunity arises, buys and flips homes. It’s time to settle down and make a life for herself, by herself. So, when a handsome stranger rescues her from freezing to death, she is grateful, but eager to continue with her own agenda. The trouble is, she can’t forget his eyes, or a strange sense of familiarity. And when he reappears in her St. Louis realty office, her emotions wage war against her wish to remain distant and unencumbered.
