'A warm, funny, uplifting writer!' KATIE FFORDE If you love Lucy Diamond, Phillipa Ashley, Sue Moorcroft and Holly Martin, you'll LOVE Erin Green's novels of love, life and laughter. ............................. Welcome to the Lakeside Cottage . . . A place to write, where inspiration awaits . . . Five authors have gathered at the idyllic Lakeside Cottage for a retreat, with the promise of peace and dedicated writing time. At least, that's the idea . . . Retreat organiser Rula is there to edit, surrounded by like-minded souls. An interloper, especially one with whom she has a past, was certainly not part of her plan. Eve has a bad case of writer's block, despite numerous bestsellers under her belt. Can she find new inspiration? Or will she get drawn into the dramas that unfold around her? Alice has a deadline looming but is seemingly more interested in anything but writing. And where does she keep disappearing to? Daphne is an experienced self-published author, but might she be more unconventional in other ways too? And then there's Brontë, the complete novice. She's a mere scribbler, not a 'proper writer' like these other women, and she feels totally out of her depth. As the collective word count grows, and their personal stories interweave, each woman finds herself drawn in unexpected and life-changing directions. ............................. Warm praise for Erin Green's heartfelt novels: 'An uplifting and wonderful story about the power of female friendships' Donna Ashcroft 'Thoroughly entertaining. The characters are warm and well drawn' Sue Roberts 'A lovely, heart-warming story . . . I was hooked!'

Book Description
Beth Henley's twelve complete plays (three of which have been turned into films) have achieved worldwide production. At age 29, she produced her first full-length drama, Crimes of the Heart, which won a Pulitzer Prize and garnered three Academy Award nominations as a film. Her Mississippi upbringing and her penchant for the eccentricities of southern culture, however, have caused critics to categorize her writing as a kind of southern gothic folklore inspired by feminist ideology. This book, the first critical study of Henley's complete plays, attempts to dispel the common stereotypes that associate Henley's work with regional drama and sociological treatises. It argues instead that Henley can best be perceived as a dramatist who delineates an existential despair manifested in various forms of what Freud calls the modern neurosis. The book maintains that Henley's plays must be understood as universal statements about the angst of modern civilization, and Henley's characters are assessed in light of Freud's proposition that cultural restrictions create neurotic individuals. The introduction provides a brief account of Henley's childhood and career. Early chapters summarize the theory of the modern angoisse espoused in Freud's Civilization and Its Discontents, while later chapters relate this theory to thematic and stylistic elements of Henley's most popular play, Crimes of the Heart, as well as Am I Blue, The Wake of Jamie Foster, The Miss Firecracker Contest, The Debutante Ball, The Lucky Spot, Abundance, Signature, Control Freaks, Revelers, L-Play, and Impossible Marriage.

This book was previously published in December of 2015 by Loveswept, a digital only imprint of Random House. The residents of the small coastal town of Seaside, North Carolina fall into two categories: Marines and their kids. When outsider Kat Chandler takes a new job as the principal of Seaside Elementary, she faces opposition to her goal of creating an oasis of calm for the children. Adding to her challenges is single father Micah Peterson, who wastes no time in telling Kat the way things should be done. Kat can handle overbearing parents, but when Micah adds passionate kisses to the mix, she knows she’s in trouble. Marine Sergeant and single dad Micah Peterson puts all his military discipline and precision into the two most important things in his life: his job and his son, Ben. But meeting Ben’s gorgeous new principal causes Micah to wonder if there might be room in his world for one more. Kat is certainly sexy, but Micah feels more for her than just physical attraction as he watches her build meaningful relationships with her students. When he learns Kat has a strict no Marines dating rule, Micah sets out to prove to Kat he’s worth the risk . . . a risk that just might turn into forever.

They’ll need a Christmas miracle to pull off their fake relationship in this sweet holiday romance. Della Rose desperately needs a Christmas miracle to make it back home in time for her sons’ holiday concert. It’s just that the single mom never imagined Santa would arrive in the form of her plane’s seatmate, the grumpy, gorgeous Roman Everson. With flights delayed, Della’s out of options. She needs Roman to drive her back to Somerset Lake, even if his un-jolly mood threatens to drain her Christmas cheer. The season may have Roman feeling grinch-like, but he needs a favor, too, so he makes a deal with Della. In exchange for a ride home, she’ll pose as Roman’s adoring girlfriend in front of his family. As the pair set off on a journey though the North Carolina mountains with a rescue dog named Jingle, they soon learn they have more in common than either would have imagined possible. Could it be true that opposites attract? And will the chance of a happily-ever-after make this the most wonderful time of year after all?
