Book Description
Millions of readers have fallen in love with Ava's bestselling books...come join the family. Fall into Ava's unforgettable stand-alone novel about a decorated hero returning from WWII and finding renewed courage for a second chance with his life...and with the woman he fell in love with through letters while executing his duty in Europe. July 1945—Noah Weatherby returns from war to the woman he fell in love with, one letter at a time. Understanding he's been given a second chance to make something of his life, he begins to search for a greater purpose while battling memories of the horrors of war and how to live with them moving forward. Anna Sims has been praying for Noah's safe return since she started writing him after her brother, Noah's best friend, died. He's every inch the hero she imagined, but she knows he's haunted by what he did in the war. Struggling to help him, she's faced with a greater problem: her still-grieving mother doesn't want him to be around. Noah is a reminder that her own son is never coming back. As Noah and Anna both move forward to create a new life together, they face their deepest shadows while holding fast to the sunshine they find in each other's arms. In this timeless story, Ava Miles shows why “the greatest generation” won the war with their guts and strength and how the fragile weeks after the Victory in Europe weighed on a nation still praying for peace. ALONG WATERS OF SUNSHINE AND SHADOW is a page-turner about how to overcome loss through love and how to find answers to some of life’s biggest questions—most especially around a soldier’s duty during war. Ava’s former career of rebuilding warzones shines through in both her nuanced understanding of the legacy of war and its emotional impact on human beings.

Book Description
First in a new series! Fern Rivers works two part-time jobs and lives upstairs in a cramped storefront apartment with her nerdy ex-boyfriend…who also happens to be her boss. But she is on the verge of realizing her career as a full-time naturalist and will soon be able to prove to her nagging mother that she is a capable woman after all. That is until one of her co-workers at the park unexpectedly ends up dead. Darren may have been preparing to retire, but as Fern quickly realizes, it was clear that someone had decided to make his exit final. Unfortunately, no one believes Fern’s theory, and evidence is sparse. Relying on her instincts and knowledge of all things nature—not to mention some assistance from her trusty Sheltie—she decides to investigate alone. Not even the threat of losing her career will stop her from solving the murder. Duskview Metroparks may be renown as a picturesque tourist town, but it is about to get a real scare from an individual with questionable morals. ** Bonus Short Story: Evergreen With Envy ** What could be more awkward than moving into an ex-boyfriend’s apartment? When Fern Rivers decided to move back to her hometown of Duskview, she didn’t imagine she’d be in so desperate a situation. But it does get more awkward when she falls victim to a robbery. Between her old boyfriend, his new girlfriend, and a small cast of acquaintances, discovering the culprit could shatter lifelong friendships.

Book Description
Readers know from his now classic Lenin's Tomb that Remnick is a superb portraitist who can bring his subjects to life and reveal them in such surprising ways as to justify comparison to Dickens, Balzac, or Proust. In this collection, Remnick's gift for character is sharper than ever, whether he writes about Gary Hart stumbling through life after Donna Rice or Mario Cuomo, who now presides over a Saturday morning radio talk show, fielding questions from crackpots, or about Michael Jordan's awesome return to the Chicago Bulls -- or Reggie Jackson's last times at bat. Remnick's portraits of such disparate characters as Alger Hiss and Ralph Ellison, Richard Nixon and Elaine Pagels, Gerry Adams and Marion Barry are unified by this extraordinary ability to create a living character, so that the pieces in this book, taken together, constitute a splendid pageant of the representative characters of our time.
