Book Description
If you love those Hallmark romances, along with mountains, lakes, and small communities filled with good friends and family, you'll find them all here in this novella. Enjoy the hope, adventure, love, and laughter in your visit to Green Mountain. This is book 1 in the Coming Home for Christmas Series and can be read as a stand-alone. Ridge left six years ago in search of the Berkley degree that would allow him to be an architect in the bustling city of Boston. That was his dream, but the other part he looked forward to was coming back home to the family-run Crofton Inn. With his Dad and Mom retiring, he and his brother Roan are taking over the family business. He knew that Sunday would be there, but what he doesn't count on is that she is not right where he left her. Sunday has been at the Crofton Inn since she was an infant, meaning that she grew up with Ridge and Roan. The three amigos were the best of friends. Ridge and Sunday had a bond like no other, both finding love early, so how could he leave her behind without a second thought? He wanted more... That open-ended statement has been filled in a million times. When Ridge comes back home to run the Crofton Inn, he's definitely interested, but there is no way he could love her. Who leaves the girl he loves for six years without so much as a phone call shared during that time? The ideal love story should have made Ridge turn around and come back. He's back now, determined to show Sunday how much he cares, but will he be six years too late? It's pure agony to have her near and not be able to be with her. Ridge was an immature fool once blinded by selfish dreams and unable to see what a mess he left behind. Has he learned his lesson?

Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This fiercely original debut novel follows four Nigerian siblings over the course of two decades as they search for agency, love, and meaning in a society rife with hypocrisy. “. . . lush, sharp, and shot through with hope!" —Well-Read Black Girl I like the idea of a god who knows what it’s like to be a twin. To have no memory of ever being alone. Twin sisters Bibike and Ariyike are enjoying a relatively comfortable life in Lagos in 1996. Then their mother loses her job due to political strife, and the family, facing poverty, becomes drawn into the New Church, an institution led by a charismatic pastor who is not shy about worshipping earthly wealth. Soon Bibike and Ariyike’s father wagers the family home on a “sure bet” that evaporates like smoke. As their parents’ marriage collapses in the aftermath of this gamble, the twin sisters and their two younger siblings, Andrew and Peter, are thrust into the reluctant care of their traditional Yoruba grandmother. Inseparable while they had their parents to care for them, the twins’ paths diverge once the household shatters. Each girl is left to locate, guard, and hone her own fragile source of power. Written with astonishing intimacy and wry attention to the fickleness of fate, Tola Rotimi Abraham’s Black Sunday takes us into the chaotic heart of family life, tracing a line from the euphoria of kinship to the devastation of estrangement. In the process, it joyfully tells a tale of grace and connection in the midst of daily oppression and the constant incursions of an unremitting patriarchy. This is a novel about two young women slowly finding, over twenty years, in a place rife with hypocrisy but also endless life and love, their own distinct methods of resistance and paths to independence.
