Book Description
"When serving as the bishop of the Diocese of Bridgeport, I was delighted whenever I received an invitation to dine with the priests at St. Joseph's parish in Danbury. For I knew what awaited me: a splendid meal, lovingly prepared by a gifted cook, Franca. The food was always superb, and I felt transported back to Italy each time. Thus, I was very happy indeed to learn of her collaboration with Father Matthew Mauriello and their soon-to-be-published cookbook." His Eminence, Edward Cardinal Egan Archbishop Emeritus of New York "Several times each year, Fr. Matt invited a group of priests for a fraternal gathering and a home-cooked Italian meal. It was always a treat! Everything was prepared from scratch by him; from the large platters of antipasto to the manicotti or tortellini, then a main course, followed by Tiramisù or freshly-made ice cream. There was even home-made Limoncello. The excellent meal was accompanied by warm conversation and conviviality among the brother priests. It seemed that Fr. Matt's joy in serving as a priest was the secret ingredient in his cooking. Those were very memorable gatherings." A priest of the Diocese of Bridgeport About the authors: This cookbook is the product of nearly twenty years of friendship between Franca Bosio Bertoli and Fr. Matthew Mauriello. In 1992, Fr. Matt began his parish priest assignment at St. Joseph Church in Danbury, CT where Franca was the Rectory cook. They hit it off, exchanging cooking tips and recipes. Franca was born in the Province of Cremona, in northern Italy and Fr. Matt's relatives came from the Province of Avellino in southern Italy. They hope that this cookbook, a treasury of recipes and a product of love and friendship, will bring others as much joy as their mutual love of cooking has brought to them.

Book Description
Raised by her aunt and uncle at the rectory in the small English village of Grimston Way, lovely Evy Varley remembers little of her missionary parents and nothing of South Africa, the land where she was orphaned during the Zulu War of 1878. But when Sir Rogan Chantry, the arrogant and handsome son of the local Squire, accuses Evy’s mother of stealing the infamous Kimberly Black Diamond, Evy sets out to prove the rogue wrong and clear her mother’s name. Secrets abound, however, from the diamond mines of South Africa to the halls of her own beloved rectory. Strangers come to Grimston Way for their own mysterious purposes, a stunned Evy finds that her own aunt and uncle may have concealed disturbing truths about her family, and the dashing Sir Rogan has his own reasons to seek the missing diamond. Yet despite Rogan’s seemingly rakish ways and the class differences that render a romance between them impossible, Evy finds herself drawn to the man who was once her childhood friend and now holds the keys to her heart. Faced with a dangerous past and an uncertain future, Evy must draw upon her wits and her faith to pursue Tomorrow’s Treasure. A story of faith, danger and romance, Tomorrow’s Treasure is a masterpiece of historical suspense fiction.

Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
“Reading [The End of the Day] is like studying a stained-glass window up close, each piece bright and sharply cut, but when you step back and see it as a whole you discover a large, beautiful, mysterious work of art.” —David Ebershoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Danish Girl and The 19th Wife Following his acclaimed New York Times bestseller, Did You Ever Have a Family, Bill Clegg returns with a deeply moving, emotionally resonant second novel about the complicated bonds and breaking points of friendship, the corrosive forces of secrets, the heartbeat of longing, and the redemption found in forgiveness. A retired widow in rural Connecticut wakes to an unexpected visit from her childhood best friend whom she hasn’t seen in forty-nine years. A man arrives at a Pennsylvania hotel to introduce his estranged father to his newborn daughter and finds him collapsed on the floor of the lobby. A sixty-seven-year-old taxi driver in Kauai receives a phone call from the mainland that jars her back to a traumatic past. These seemingly disconnected lives come together as half-century-old secrets begin to surface. It is in this moment that Bill Clegg reminds us how choices—to connect, to betray, to protect—become our legacy. Deeply observed and beautifully written, this novel is a feat of storytelling, capturing sixty years within the framework of one fateful day.
