Hold Me Forever
She’s the one who got away… Lark Donovan doesn’t need anything besides her art. That’s what she’s told herself for years as she’s traveled the country selling her paintings at festivals and teaching workshops. She’s independent and takes life day by day, because that’s the only way to keep from getting hurt. The only rule she’s lived by is to never return to Heron Harbor Island, but that’s one she has to break to be in her sister’s wedding... Now he plans to hold on forever… Police Chief Hunter McMullen loves his life on Heron Harbor. The only thing missing is someone to share it with. He thought he’d found that once and the rejection still stings, especially when sexy, free-spirited Lark Donovan returns for a family wedding they’re both in. Reunited for the first time in years, they’re thrown together to celebrate another couple’s love--and damn if the sparks between them still don’t fly. Now, it’s all Hunter can do to avoid convincing Lark with his hands, his mouth, and his body that they belong together. But he can already sense her pulling away—again. The only question is how hard they’ll both fight to hold on to happiness...forever.

The View from the Very Best House in Town
Part thriller, part friendship story, part real estate listing, this witty and inventive debut explores the nature of friendship and home. Sam and Asha. Asha and Sam. Their friendship is so long established, they take it for granted. Just as Asha takes for granted that Donnybrooke, the mansion that sits on the highest hill in Coreville, is the best house in town. But when Sam is accepted into snobbish Castleton Academy as an autistic “Miracle Boy,” he leaves Asha, who is also autistic, to navigate middle school alone. He also leaves her wondering if she can take anything for granted anymore. Because soon Sam is spending time with Prestyn, Asha’s nemesis, whose family owns Donnybrooke and, since a housewarming party gone wrong, has forbidden Asha to set foot inside. Who is Asha without Sam? And who will she be when it becomes clear that Prestyn’s interest in her friend isn’t so friendly? Told from the points of view of Asha, Sam, and Donnybrooke itself, this suspenseful and highly original debut explores issues of ableism and classism as it delves into the mysteries of what makes a person a friend and a house a home.
The Word
After her parents split up, seven-year-old Lisa’s father convinces her to leave out the window in the middle of the night. After all, according to their religion, she belongs to him, and it is her duty to obey him. Ever the dutiful daughter, at least on the outside, and confused about the sinful changes in her mother (she’s cut her hair, there’s a new man around, she’s had a baby with him), Lisa complies. She spends the next nine years on the run before the police finally catch up with her father, and she is returned to a mother who is “dead” in the eyes of their religion. But her father always had a plan for when the law came and took what was his—a plan that was set in motion the moment the police arrived at their home. Now Lisa must make a decision: follow the plan and go home again with the hope that she’ll see her brother and father again, or risk everything to figure out what life could be when she makes her own choices.
Creating the Good Will
Leave your family peace of mind with this new approach to wills and estates Whenever Elizabeth Arnold tells people her specialty, they usually share their own family dilemmas. Maybe Dad left behind a misguided or inadequate will. Maybe Aunt Sue nabbed the vase that wasn’t in Grandma’s will and Aunt Pat hasn’t spoken a kind word to her since. Maybe Sis can’t decide who should get the kids in case of a tragedy, so she doesn’t have any will at all. Such tales of woe have nothing to do with legal or tax problems. The real issues behind wills gone wrong—or wills that never get off the ground—are the human ones. Creating the Good Will tackles the important human dimensions that most books about wills fail to address. Arnold teaches her readers that wills are not just legal documents but also heartfelt emotional tools.
