Book Description
After her mother dies of an accidental overdose, Alex takes leave from her job as a writer for a Washington, DC, lifestyle magazine to return home to Maryland’s Eastern Shore. There, she joins her brother Owen, a study in failure-to-launch, in sorting out their mother’s whimsical and often self-destructive life. Alex has proposed to her editor that while she is home she profile Juliette Sprigg, her former high school fling, owner of a wildly popular local restaurant, and celebrity chef in the making. While working on the story and trying for a second chance with Juliette, Alex meets Carolyn Massey, editor of the town newspaper, and wonders if there’s more to life than reheating leftovers. Enter Alex and Owen’s Aunt Johanna, who arrives from Seattle to help with arrangements. When Johanna reveals a family secret, Alex may have to accept her family for who they are rather than who she hoped they would be. And just maybe apply the same philosophy to her heart and herself.

Book Description
“Looks will get you far, but not as far as a good education.” —Marilyn Monroe to Terry Karger Terry Karger is a child of Hollywood: the granddaughter of Metro Pictures cofounder Maxwell Karger, and the daughter of Fred Karger, a vocal coach at Columbia Pictures. Terry’s story revolves around Fred and a trio of silver-screen legends: her stepmother Jane Wyman, Ronald Reagan, and, primarily, Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn, recently evolved from Norma Jeane Mortenson, was an unknown starlet when, as a twenty-one-year-old, she first met six-year-old Terry—and began dating her dad—in the spring of 1948. The orphaned, emotionally fragile actress initially babysat Fred’s daughter while turning to his family for support. Although the Marilyn-Fred romance lasted just over a year, her close friendship with the Kargers, including Fred, continued for fourteen years until the end of Marilyn's life. While Fred was Marilyn’s first true love, his mom, Nana, was the mother she never really had. “Maril,” as they fondly called her, was allowed to relax and be herself. It also enabled Marilyn to appease her own unfulfilled maternal instincts, acting as a cross between a sweet, playful big sister and generous, caring surrogate mom to Terry. This memoir also reveals privately taken, previously unpublished photos of the iconic superstar with her adopted family and friends.

Book Description
This heartfelt debut novel from a fresh new voice debunks the myth that says to truly forgive you must forget. Traumatized by two abusive relationships and a haunting secret, Cassidy Beckett has shut herself off emotionally from the world. Despite the fact that she has forgiven those who hurt her, she is paralyzed by the memories. Burying herself in church ministry she soon meets Trevor Monroe, a widower and single father of two young girls. Forced to interact, Trevor and Cassidy initially have a love-hate relationship. But with the passing of Cassidy’s beloved Aunt Odessa, their bond grows stronger. As a widower,Trevor echoes Cassidy’s sentiment of being burdened by painful memories of his past. They fall in love and marry, but that only causes more pain when Trevor realizes that the future of their relationship is more about his wife’s past than their love. Finally, Cassidy reveals to Trevor that as a frightened college student she was forced by her minister-in-training boyfriend to abandon her infant son. Not only does Trevor support Cassidy after her confession, he performs some detective work of his own to help his wife find closure—and the son she has never forgotten.
