When Marrying a Scoundrel
“Kathryn Smith weaves a heart-wrenching tale of love lost and found that satisfies the soul. Don’t miss this one!” —New York Times bestselling author Sabrina Jeffries USA Today bestseller Kathryn Smith follows the success of When Seducing a Duke with When Marrying a Scoundrel—the second book in her sexy Victorian series centered around a group of wealthy and powerful patrons of London’s most prestigious house of pleasure. Romance superstar Lisa Kleypas says, “Smith writes with spectacular passion and flare” and Sherilynn Kenyon promises that, “Kathryn Smith never disappoints”—high praise that is more than supported by this breathtaking story of a beautiful fortuneteller whose heart is thrown into disarray when the dashing former conman she wed unexpectedly bursts back into her life.
Self-Portrait with Cephalopod
Environmental collapse. The betrayals and alliances of the animal world. A father who works in a timber mill. The celebrities in our feeds, the stories we tell ourselves. Loss, never-ending loss. Self-Portrait with Cephalopod—selected by francine j. harris as winner of the Jake Adam York Prize—is an account of being a girl, and then a woman, in the world; of being a living creature on a doomed planet; of being someone who aspires to do better but is torn between attention and distraction. Here, Kathryn Smith offers observations and anxieties, prophecies and prayers, darkness and light—but never false hope. Instead, she incises our vanities and our hypocrisies, “the bloody hand holding back / the skin,” revealing “the world’s inner workings, / rubbery and caught between the teeth.” These are the poems of someone who feels her and our failings in the viscera, in the bones, and who bears witness to that pain on the page. Self-Portrait with Cephalopod is an urgent and necessary collection about living in this precarious moment, meditative and resolutely unsentimental.

Marguerite 'Missy' LeHand, a young woman with a modest background, an agile intellect, a pleasant personality, and remarkable stenographer's skills, began working for F.D.R. in 1920, when he ran for vice president. Smith writes particularly well about F.D.R.'s struggle to bounce back from being struck with polio in 1921, explaining the disease and the origins of the Warm Springs, Ga., health spa that he frequented. LeHand was F.D.R.'s most constant companion during the 1920s, sparking rumors--convincingly dismissed by Smith--that they were lov...
