The Ripening: A Canadian Girl Grows Up

About The Ripening: A Canadian Girl Grows Up

Tillie Bishop never knew her father. So when her mother abandons her, Tillie becomes streetwise. She’s tried to follow the Canadian Girl in Training’s Christian guidelines, but she smokes cigarettes in the church bathroom during the group’s meetings and plays kissing games afterward with neighborhood boys. Barely a teenager, glamour becomes her guiding star, and she fantasizes about dating men and having sex. Even in Calgary, forces of the coming 1960s—a decade of rebellion, discovery, and upheaval—are festering within her. At seventeen, during a stay in Toronto, she becomes a band groupie and throws herself into “sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll.” Then, seeking more adventure, she moves to San Francisco, drawn to its psychedelic night life, leading to a deeper downward spiral. But Tillie’s grit and ability to face life’s challenges are inspiring, the seeds for later discovering her artist self. Tillie takes readers on a wild ride. Join her if you dare!

A Girl Like You by Michelle Cox

About Featured Book: A Girl Like You by Michelle Cox

Henrietta Von Harmon works as a 26 girl at a corner bar on Chicago’s northwest side. It’s 1935, but things still aren’t looking up since the big crash and her father’s subsequent suicide, leaving Henrietta to care for her antagonistic mother and younger siblings.

Henrietta is eventually persuaded to take a job as a taxi dancer at a local dance hall―and just when she’s beginning to enjoy herself, the floor matron turns up dead. When aloof Inspector Clive Howard appears on the scene, Henrietta agrees to go undercover for him―and is plunged into Chicago’s grittier underworld.

Meanwhile, she’s still busy playing mother hen to her younger siblings, as well as to pesky neighborhood boy Stanley, who believes himself in love with her and keeps popping up in the most unlikely places, determined to keep Henrietta safe―even from the Inspector, if need be. Despite his efforts, however, and his penchant for messing up the Inspector’s investigation, the lovely Henrietta and the impenetrable Inspector find themselves drawn to each other in most unsuitable ways.

About Featured Book: The Eva Rae Thomas Mystery Series: Book 3-5 by Willow Rose

This boxed set will be 99 cents from 10/9-10/15.

Description:
Former FBI-profiler Eva Rae Thomas is back and embedded in a true nightmare reaching deep into her own family.

NEVER EVER:

Ex-agent Eva Rae Thomas is on the run. She has done things she never knew she was capable of the past month while hunting for her kidnapped daughter.

Eva Rae has risked everything,
-her career,
-her newfound love,
-her freedom.

She’s looking for the man they call the Iron Fist. The trail has led her to Miami.

Meanwhile, Miami is under attack. Hundreds of passengers in the Metrorail are exposed to a deadly nerve gas on a peaceful Monday morning.

When Eva Rae Thomas sees her daughter on the surveillance footage from the attack, she knows it is no coincidence.
But by the time she uncovers the chilling truth of how it is all connected, it might be too late.

SAY YOU LOVE ME:

What would you do if your brother was accused of a horrible crime, and you were certain he didn’t do it?

Life is not done throwing Eva Rae Thomas curveballs.

A phone call turns her life upside down – once again. The call is from her father, the man she hasn’t seen in thirty-six years, not since he kidnapped her sister in a supermarket.

Now, he is back in Florida, and he needs her help. Her younger brother – whom she didn’t know existed – has been arrested on Amelia Island. The boy is in a coma after being shot by an officer during the incident. But his father doesn’t believe the police, and he asks for Eva Rae’s help to prove it.

At the same time, a serial killer is planning one of the most horrific mass killings in history.
Will Eva Rae find it in her heart to help her father after what he did to her? Will facing him again set her free or pull her under?

LET ME GO:

What if a stranger tells you that she believes your child is about to be killed? What if that woman is an ex-FBI profiler with a disputable reputation?

Would you believe her?

Eva Rae Thomas is chasing down a vicious killer, but no one will believe he even exists. If there are no unexplained dead bodies or missing persons, then how can there be a killer on the loose?

They don’t understand that the perfect murder is the one that doesn’t look like murder.

Can Eva Rae convince local law enforcement to help her with this case before the killer strikes once more? Or will she have to take matters into her own hands – again?

Utopia Café

About Utopia Café

An amusing young romance intersects with an underground freedom movement after the US experiences the comic and tragic results of living under a repressive socialist regime that over-promised utopia and created a poorly run police state.

Great for adults of all ages, book clubs, and smart college and high school students, with appealing characters and storylines, laugh-out-loud humor, surprising twists and thriller scenes, and engaging dialogues and narratives, from art to music, race relations to socialism, and Christian beliefs to the Holocaust.

After Izzy, an attractive college senior, joins an underground freedom movement organizing against the repressive socialist regime, she is challenged by the idea of recruiting Tom Hardy. He’s an unlikely choice as a rising young star in the regime. But Izzy heard Tom may have private sympathies for freedom, and he may be able to get valuable information as the underground’s mole in the regime. He’s also nice looking.
Izzy’s plan to meet Tom works like a charm. But neither of them can risk expressing subversive views until they trust each other. Will their amusing and cautious interactions and gradual revelations develop into a deeper relationship of shared beliefs, even love? Meantime, will increasing friction between the two marginally competent Party leaders provide an opportunity for the underground to take action?

How could the small underground force possibly prevail, and what roles could Izzy and Tom have? Will there be an armed conflict and what will the military do? Will Tom be reunited with his capitalist parents whom he denounced as a child, and who have been in a secretive gulag prison camp in Alaska? Will Izzy obtain closure by confronting the guy who raped her?
