Annie journeyed to America from northern Italy at the age of eleven. She lived with her grandparents since she was a baby, banned from passing through Ellis Island due to an eye disease. Now she's ready to join her family, but life is not what she expected. She expected warmth, but met coldness and indifference. She expected plenty, but met want. Annie's accent makes her the object of ridicule. The innocent, warm girl begins to change to an unhappy one, and hardens as her bleak environment is more than she can handle. The bright spot in Annie's life is a fellow outcast, Curtsey, a black girl whose family fled from a segregated South to settle in Harrison County, Ohio, after the Civil War. Will Annie stay and adjust, or surrender to her circumstances and retreat to Italy?

A perfect marriage reveals its dark secrets in this psychological thriller of a devoted wife, her veteran husband, and a shocking murder. Maddie and Ian’s love story began with a chance encounter at a party overseas; he was serving in the British Army and she was a travel writer visiting her best friend, Jo. Now almost two decades later, married with a beautiful son, Charlie, they are living the perfect suburban life in Middle America. But when a camping accident leaves Maddie badly scarred, she begins attending writing therapy, where she gradually reveals her fears about Ian’s PTSD; her concerns for the safety of their young son; and the couple’s tangled and tumultuous past with Jo. From the Balkans to England, Iraq to Manhattan, and finally to an ordinary family home in Kansas, sixteen years of love and fear, adventure and suspicion culminate in The Day of the Killing, when a frantic 911 call summons the police to the scene of a shocking crime.

This is the story of a man who, at age fifty, found his world crashing in on him. In addition to losing his job, he found that he was afflicted with a heart condition that could be fatal within five years. Rather than sitting back and awaiting the arrival of the Grim Reaper, he elected to start a new career in franchising, cofounding a retail concept that had never been tried. With the assistance of new medications and numerous groundbreaking surgeries, he continued to lead the fledgling company for twenty years, building an international network of retail private postal facilities that now exceed six thousand outlets spanning the whole globe. The purpose of this book is to provide encouragement to individuals who have arrived at middle age and feel that life has passed them by, that their unrealized goals in life are now unachievable. We agree with that sage, Yogi Berra. "It ain't over till it's over!"
"Bilge? What bilge?" "Sink? It can't sink ... can it?" First he was in shock, then he was angry. Then he pretended like it never even happened, like he didn't just buy a magnificent chore-of-a-boat that needed to be stocked, cleaned, repaired and maintained. But we've all been there, and I knew one thing for sure. Helping our hapless buddy bring his new boat home across the Gulf of Mexico was going to make for one heck of a story and endless entertainment when the boat-as boats tend to do-started to give him plenty of grief.
Ever since her step-mom brought her a snow globe of the New York City skyline, Annie has wanted to visit the beautiful, big city. Since it’s nearing the time of Annie’s rumschpringe—the time when Amish youth experience Englisch life to make a decision whether to live in that world or become baptized into the Amish faith—the family decides a visit is a good idea. They watch the Macy’s Christmas parade, admire the decorated store windows, skate at the Rockefeller Center rink and— Annie’s favorite—get a glimpse of a writer’s life while visiting the New York Times building. But others aren’t as thrilled with Annie’s lure to the Big Apple. Aaron has long been attracted to Annie and is sure he’s in love. As he watches her engage in big city life, he grows concerned that she won’t want to return to their quieter life. Will Annie follow Aaron back home? Or stay and pursue her dreams? Competing for her attention, Aaron sets out to show Annie that Christmas isn’t about the glitz and glamour, but about family, love, and the birth of Jesus.
