Lily's Sister
Remarkable Women. Unforgettable Love Stories. Louisa Caldecott, a progressive woman and independent business owner in 1880 Kansas, is principled, strong-willed, passionate, and generous to a fault. Satisfied with her comfortable life, Lou is content to live in her sister Lily's shadow. Until she meets John Rock Davis, Civil War veteran and man with a past. Until her cherished hometown is rocked by violence and fear and her friends and neighbors begin to act like strangers. Until she is forced to take a stand that threatens to destroy her safety, her happiness, and everything she holds dear. Then all hell-but heaven, too-breaks loose, and self-sufficient Lou discovers the cost of courage and the power of love.
Waiting for Hope
Remarkable Women. Unforgettable Love Stories. In 1905, Hope Birdwell is a spirited young woman of strong will and uncompromising dreams. Exchanging her routine life as the domestic servant of a wealthy family for the demanding self-reliance of a Wyoming homesteader is the first step in her plan for success. Hope is finally on her way to the home and the future she has always desired, and she will not allow any distractions into her life-or her heart. She doesn't realize that her dream of a bright and independent future will be threatened by secrets from her past, a past darkened by the shadows of prostitution and violence. When she is forced to confront her fears and defend the place and the people she has grown to love, Hope will discover the danger of deception-and the liberating power of truth. Waiting for Hope continues the story of the Davis family, introduced in the acclaimed Lily's Sister, the first book of Hasley's Laramie Series. You will find Lily's Sister at Amazon.com, Borders.com, and other online book retailers. Meet a remarkable woman. Read an unforgettable love story.
What About the Future?
This book closely examines the concept and theory of 'future' from a multidisciplinary perspective, focusing on the practice of forecasting, especially in its interaction with complexity. It highlights the relations between forecasting, decision-making and strategy, mixing technical arguments (but minimal mathematics) with ideas from psychology and philosophy. Rich with examples, the book highlights the role of values and attitudes in deciding how to look at the future. Written in a casual but precise style that makes the ideas easily digestible, it helps corporate strategists, practicing futurists, and researchers in the field of strategy or public planning gain a fundamental perspective on the future – before starting to predict things.
Waiting for Hope
It's 1905 and the new century overflows with opportunities for the smart, the strong, the confident, and the determined. All words that describe Hope Birdwell to a T. Her first twenty years had their share of trouble and torment, but she's certain the next twenty hold only promise. Hope leaves a sordid past behind and heads for Wyoming to take up homesteading. Never mind that she's alone in the world and has never known a real home in her whole life. Her name is Hope, after all, so what could possibly go wrong? Well, maybe the long reach of perverted violence from a brute she would rather forget could get in the way of her dreams. Maybe the warmly distracting appeal of friends and community ...

But while Meg may be running from, she's also running to ~ to new friends and lovers, to redemption, and to life with purpose. To a new life altogether. Maybe there's hope for Meg's future, after all - if only she can make peace with her past.
