Book Description
Rylee Green lives a fairly normal life until a world-famous boy band comes to town and turns her world upside down. Things start to change for her in ways she never imagined when the lead singer, Carson James, hits her in the back of the head with his fast-food wrapper. He’s isn’t the pampered and self-centered celebrity she imagined he’d be, but kind, funny, and undoubtedly the kind of gorgeous you dream about… and Rylee would know, since her older sister has been planning her fantasy wedding to Carson for years. When the paparazzi snaps a blurry picture of the singer and his “Mystery Girl” fleeing from the cameras, Rylee starts receiving social media backlash and bullying like she’s never experienced before. The world already hates her, twisting her words and constructing lies to fit their narrative, but what will happen when her true identity is revealed and she can no longer hide behind a baseball cap? And worst of all, what happens when her Carson-obsessed sister finds out she’s the girl in all the photos? Remember December is the heartwarming first book in the 13 Days of December contemporary romance series. If you like shy and quirky heroines, swoon-worthy book boyfriends, and insta-love relationships, then you’ll love Lexi Kingston’s sweet and inspirational tale. Buy Remember December to get lost in the melody today.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Get ready to be swept up in a whirlwind romance. It absolutely charmed me.”—Reese Witherspoon (A Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick) “The perfect book to get lost in . . . Josie Silver’s characters sneak their way into your heart and stay.”—Jill Santopolo, author of The Light We Lost Two people. Ten chances. One unforgettable love story. Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn't exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic...and then her bus drives away. Certain they're fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn't find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they "reunite" at a Christmas party, when her best friend Sarah giddily introduces her new boyfriend to Laurie. It's Jack, the man from the bus. It would be. What follows for Laurie, Sarah and Jack is ten years of friendship, heartbreak, missed opportunities, roads not taken, and destinies reconsidered. One Day in December is a joyous, heartwarming and immensely moving love story to escape into and a reminder that fate takes inexplicable turns along the route to happiness.

Book Description
"I want to get married, go out west, build a log cabin, raise a bunch of kids, volunteer in my community, and then write a book about it." In 1978, during a golden age of middle-class prosperity, newly wed Kevin and Eleanor, like other young people at the time, felt the irresistible pull of the Back-to-the-Land movement and left behind everything they knew and loved to live far from the city and off the grid. As they searched western Canada for a place to settle, abandoned homesteads warned that their dream would be hard won. 10 Days in December journals Kevin and Eleanor's adventures living for the first ten days in their wilderness cabin facing the demands of winter, where harsh reality and self-denial test their love and commitment. Along the way practical Kevin and idealistic Eleanor will learn if they have what it takes to live in the mountains and with each other. Eleanor shares her true 'coming-of-age' story exploring what resources from her sheltered childhood could help her endure the isolation, cold and darkness of this northern river valley.
