Book Description
A powerful fog has consumed the mysterious realm of Jo'Hanna... Conner James, a bullied foster child with no links to his past, awakens on his thirteenth birthday in the suburbs of Caskel, CA. Outside his window lies a fallen elm in the middle of the road. Has Conner seen this elm before... or was it in a dream? On his way to school, he encounters Miko - a boy claiming to be his best friend from another world called Jo'Hanna. A journey begins with a chase through a train station, down a raging waterfall, and up a ladder into the foggy woods of Jo'Hanna. Conner's memories gradually re-emerge as well as strange empathic abilities, discovering most children are being held inside the Koval - a maze-like fortress ruled by the sadistic teenage dictator, O'Riley. Conner's return ignites an inevitable uprising among a unique group of resisters determined to free the Koval from O'Riley and his followers, as well as returning peace and prosperity to Jo'Hanna. The Keepers of Jo'Hanna is a coming-of-age epic grounded in the realities of a generation finding courage in a society overthrown by tyranny. An adventure of friendship, identity, trauma, and loss with the notion of learning from the past, surviving in the present, and striving for the future.

Lindsey’s golden anniversary 50th novel! #1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey presents a passionate novel of hidden identities, family secrets, and love that transcends a fifty-year feud set in the majestic ranchland of 1880s Montana Territory. Some young ladies marry for money and social standing, a few lucky ones marry for love, but Tiffany Warren is marrying to end a feud. Honoring her mother’s wishes, Tiffany reluctantly travels west to meet her estranged father and his enemy’s eldest son, rancher Hunter Callahan. Once the Warrens and the Callahans are united by marriage, both clans will stop squabbling over a disputed strip of land. But in the chaos of a train robbery Tiffany seizes a golden opportunity: By assuming the identity of her father’s new housekeeper she can live with the father she never knew while assessing the character of the neighboring cowboy to whom she is betrothed. But the moment she steps off the train, the Callahans steal the “housekeeper” from their rivals, the Warrens! Now Tiffany, masquerading as Jennifer Fleming, finds herself living in the enemy camp, under the same roof as her fiancé, a handsome, sweettalking charmer whom she has to fight off because he can’t keep his eyes— or his hands—off Jennifer. After Tiffany’s charade is exposed, she refuses to marry Hunter. How can she wed a man who is in love with another woman? As Hunter goes about claiming his rightful bride-to-be, he knows he loves two women—proper, elegant Tiffany as well as spunky, passionate Jennifer—but he has only one heart to win.
