Book Description
Is someone trying to kill Anne Reynolds? Kind, reliable, longing for a place-to-call-home Anne Reynolds? It was hard for her to believe. But then, it had been hard for her to believe that the townspeople of Overton, California, would turn on her as they had when she testified against the corrupt owners of the town’s largest business. To them, she was to blame for everything bad that followed and they harassed her to the point of driving her away. Shattered, Anne seeks isolation on the beautiful and lonely northern California Coast, where she hopes to heal her nerves and her spirit. Only she soon learns that she’s not as alone as she thought: Robert Singleton—a very attractive man entangled in his own weighty problems—and his determinedly friendly five-and-a-half-year-old son, Jamie, are vacationing in the next cove. Then accidents start to happen...

Book Description
New York Times Bestselling Author BARBARA DELINSKY CALL MY NAME From America's beloved storyteller, Barbara Delinsky, comes the story of one woman's passion, one man's politics, and one battle of the sexes that's too close to call... As a child psychologist, Dr. Daran Patterson is passionately dedicated to children's causes—so dedicated, in fact, that she's taking her campaign directly to Senator Drew Charles. He may be one of Connecticut's most popular and powerful politicians, but she is prepared to put up a fight. Unfortunately, she's not prepared for how handsome and charismatic he is—how he can wrap a woman around his finger with a look and a smile. The Senator is impressed with the doctor as well. He's never met an advocate so engagingly persuasive—or irresistibly sexy. So far, their encounters have been civil. But when their mutual attraction leads to one molten-hot kiss, the political becomes the personal...and there's no turning back. Previously published as Whispered Promise by Bonnie Drake

The Nappers
Author: Nick Rondi
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1628389958
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
“The Nappers is a saga about an East Harlem, New York, gangster who comes up with a lucrative, if dangerous idea of kidnapping his fellow gangsters. It is also the story about the collapse of the mob, which turns out to have been caused more by Urban Renewal than the FBI. And there is also enough of a love story stirred into the plot to make a great movie.—Can’t wait.” —Nick Pileggi— Author of “Wiseguy” and the screenplay “Goodfellas” “The book is written in a language which captures your imagination in a way that makes you feel like you’re part of the moment. I couldn’t wait to turn the page. I hope someone asks me to be in the movie...” —Bo Dietl— Retired NYPD Homicide Detective, author of “One Tough Cop” and Business Lunchatations. Nick Rondi the author of The Nappers was born and raised in East Harlem in New York City. This story is composed not only of his recollection of what transpired in the neighborhood in the years 1949 to 1968, but also of events to which he bore witness. His knowledge of “The Life”—the people living it, the honor and dishonor of being part of it—compelled him to write this book. At its heart The Nappers is also the story of the destruction of a neighborhood that was once the largest Italian enclave in the United States. Although Joey Rendino the protagonist is a gangster who kidnaps other mobsters—thus the title—he is also a man in love. Narrated by his watchful younger brother, this tale of star-crossed love as well as tragedies both personal and political will leave readers wondering which side of a fine line to walk with characters whose actions are both violent and tender. The Nappers can be read as a passionate story between two conflicted longtime lovers, or one of love between two brothers. It’s also a tale about inexplicable acts that caused much confusion in a close-knit community and left many unanswered questions. And last but not least it’s a love letter to a neighborhood that was dismantled piece by piece in the name of urban renewal.
