Book Description
For fans of Becky Albertalli and Ali Novak comes a fun, flirty romance about navigating first love, and the challenge of letting go of perfection. Classic Hollywood and high school collide in this charming teen romance about finding love where you least expect it. Maddie Brooks has always dreamed of a romance straight out of a classic Hollywood film, complete with her very own silver screen heartthrob. But she never expected to find that in her new neighbor. Jesse Morales is a lot of things-star pitcher for the baseball team, a member of the popular crowd, her friend's gorgeous older brother-but he's not the kind of boy Maddie pictured herself falling for. She's always had her heart set on someone who is as into theatre as she is-and jocks are so not her style. Then Maddie discovers that Jesse was raised as a dancer, and that he might just be what she's been looking for after all-as long as she can convince him to take the stage again. But when it becomes clear that baseball, not dance, is Jesse's passion, Maddie is faced with a choice: should she hold out for the romance of her dreams, or let herself fall for the boy who's unexpectedly taken her heart?

Book Description
Waterford Ireland, 1876, sixteen year old Seamus O’Toule escapes a demeaning judicial order when he is selected to fill a request from the Colonial Governor of NSW to provide a bonded servant for a Scottish pastoral family. Arthur and Lilly Evans wish to train a boy to do the work of the son they lost in a colonial war. His good fortune will be like no other and he returns the love given him by Arthur and Lilly. In the gold-fields district that will be his new home, the young man will enjoy strong friendships, especially among people who are living under the perverted authority of powerful Senior Constable Whithers. One such friend will be Doctor Harold Cheltam, the only man who knows the truth about Whithers’ murder of his former police senior. They must watch each other’s backs, but they are people who enjoy a great gift for humour that adds a special quality to their story. Whithers will have Dr. Harold tried for a murder that he could not have committed and the Doctor’s daughter sails from London to be with him. Seamus is devising plans to upset the jury’s findings. The trial might have ended badly for Dr.Harold but for the exposure of several jurors who knew more about the murder than the police did. One juror would have a photo of ‘his spirit’ in the newspaper. The court room becomes free-for-all with jurors fighting each other and Seamus. Hellena is arrested for pushing a police officer down the steps of the gallery. The trial fails. Whithers and his cronies were also active with a fraudulent solicitor Elmo Carlton to defraud Seamus estate inherited from his adoptive Scotish parents. New friendships are emerging between Hellena and Seamus, and her English chaperone Jesse who is in love with the retiring sea captain. There will be several weddings and great humor when Seamus’ brothers arrive to be ‘encultured’ into new surroundings. But Whithers has not given up. He must discredit the doctor or have him killed in a violent home invasion that captures the whole cast of the story with painful outcomes for some. Whithers tries again and again and plots the kidnap of Dr Harold’s daughter Hellena, by this time Seamus’ love of his life. But the constable's luck is failing him and his desperate attempts lead to his downfall and great violence. Five little stories meld into the main stream of the novel giving it a wide scope for character development, for drama and humour. Chaperone, Jesse, will marry her sea Captain. The publican's daughter has a problem with one of Seamus' love sick brothers in a lively sequence of great humour. Seamus friendship with Hellena must be upset by wealthy Constance McAlistar, providing a lively story in its own right. But Seamus now has a badly disabled brother who is more strain on the emotions than most women would choose, except of course, the ever loving Hellena. Will she be rewarded for her love and devotion?

Book Description
When writing workshops first blossomed in classrooms, its hallmarks were genuine curiosity, individual choice, quality conversations, and engaging children's literature. A joyous hum of intention, creativity, and craft enlivened the school day. Today's teachers are often faced with a range of obstacles, as new initiatives are embraced, mandates handed down, and scripted programs are purchased. Sometimes teachers must sacrifice the original principles of the writing workshop and lose the creative venue they provide. Above and Beyond the Writing Workshop is filled with original writing challenges designed to bring back the spirit of the original writing workshop model and encourage teachers to enhance it with invention, innovation, and inspiration. Teaching creative writing is not only possible, but an important process in their instruction. Author Shelley Harwayne invites teachers to keep the workshop spirit alive by: Encouraging professional conversations on classroom ideas and methods between colleagues; Developing writing cues that allow young writers to be inquisitive, outspoken, and independent; Showing how high quality writing can make a difference; Offering an inspired and stimulating outlet for students to express their passions. Harwayne's book will help teachers encourage students to write the world around them, which can generate more critical thinking and make for a more well-rounded child.

Everybody in Fallon's Landing remembers Quaid O'Fallon as the street-tough kid adopted by the tight-knit clan and made into one of their own. Quaid has spent the last few years working in the Coast Guard Search and Rescue in Alaska, but he's still got a hint of danger humming under the surface--and a heart fiercely loyal to the man who saved him, Rory O'Fallon. That's why he had to come back home. What he doesn't expect is to run into the only person who's ever cracked his armor, Cynthia James. His attraction to the single mom has lasted years even though they're worlds apart. She loves New York; he loves the River. She's Vogue; he's Field & Stream. She designs beautiful clothes; his job is fishing people out of dangerous waters. He may be a rough-and-tumble river man, but he's not about to let a second chance at his dream woman get away. Cynthia came home to Fallon's Landing in defeat after her smooth-talking husband ran her clothing business into the ground and left her with their son to raise. The last thing she needs is another man in her life, no matter how incredibly tempting he is. But Quaid's always been a fascination to her. She's wondered what those strong arms would feel like wrapped around her, or what ways a man that bold might have of pleasing a woman. He's all wrong for her, but once she shuts out the rest of the world and tastes Quaid's hungry kisses, all she can think about is just how right he feels.
