|
Review In 1940, Clare Childs unexpectedly inherits a yacht, the Maggie Bright . She also inherits its secrets, hidden documents someone is willing to kill for. As British and Allied troops retreat from the advancing German forces to the French port of Dunkirk, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill decides that civilian craft must be put into service to rescue the surviving army from certain defeat and captivity.

Review Nominated for the 2017 RITA Award About the Author From medical secretary to court reporter to property manager to owner of a special-events decorating company, Carol J. Post’s résumé reads as if she hasn’t yet decided what she wants to be when she grows up. But one thing that has remained constant through the years is her love of writing.

Now she pens fun, fast-paced inspirational romance and romantic suspense stories. Her books have been nominated for an RT Reviewers’ Choice Best Book award and selected as an RT Top Pick. When Carol isn’t writing, she enjoys sailing, hiking, camping―almost anything outdoors. She also plays the piano and sings with her music-minister husband. Their two grown daughters and their grandkids live too far away for her liking, so she now pours all her nurturing into taking care of a fat and sassy black cat and a highly spoiled dachshund.

Her Fear: The Amish of Hart County

From the Back Cover In New York Times bestselling author Shelley Shepard Gray’s latest novel in the suspenseful Amish of Hart County series, an EMT falls for a woman with ties to an Amish community where people are dying similar, suspicious deaths . . . Sadie Detweiler never imagined she’d move to Kentucky, yet here she is: a pregnant, unmarried Amish girl banished by unforgiving parents to live with kin she barely knows. The men are gruff and her cousins are secretive. Worst of all, elderly matriarch Verba becomes mysteriously ill shortly after Sadie moves in. When EMT Noah Freeman arrives, Sadie immediately notices he’s unlike any other Amish man she’s met. Noah is warm and confident, and has an easy way with practically everyone in the community, both Amish and English. Though Sadie is drawn to him, she has little hope he will reciprocate her feelings once he learns she’s with child. Noah can’t understand how a girl as sweet and lovely as Sadie ended up sleeping on a cot in Verba Stauffer’s kitchen. He also senses Sadie is terrified of something. Concerned, he checks up on her. Eventually they strike up a friendship and soon their attraction is undeniable. When Verba later dies at the hospital and her death is followed by two others, Noah’s boss wants him to dig around the Amish community for clues. He agrees—for Sadie’s sake—because only the truth will keep Sadie safe and by his side.

Captives (The Safe Lands)
|
From Booklist The most compelling dystopian novels aren’t really about a horrifying possible future; they’re about the present, and the dangers we don’t see because they’re part of the cultural air we breathe. That’s clearly the case with Williamson’s somewhat moralistic but wonderfully realized antiromance. The term anti-romance is prompted not by the absence of true love in the novel—in fact, honoring it is a thematic keynote—but because romance is considered corny in the antifamily, libertine Safe Lands, where a pandemic decades earlier has made reproduction problematic. Consequently, the state abducts uninfected young outsiders for breeding purposes. Williamson deftly intercuts between the points of view of characters drawn from the group, which includes a teenage girl living in a harem. Along the way, well-observed details skewer today’s materialistic and superficial values. Yes, some plot points are hard to buy (e.g., authorities would be better at keeping the outsiders apart), and the biblical references can be too explicit—but that’s not a knock on the message, which is important and worth discussing. Ultimately, the multilayered, futuristic narrative should intrigue fans of sf. Grades 9-12. --Peter Gutierrez About the Author Jill Williamson is a chocolate loving, daydreaming, creator of kingdoms and the award-winning author of several young adult books including By Darkness Hid, Replication, The New Recruit, and Captives. She's a Whovian, a Photoshop addict, and a recovering fashion design assistant, who was raised in Alaska. She loves teaching about writing.

The Perfect Blend (Tea Shop, Book 1)
|
From Publishers Weekly Perry (Sunset Beach) entertains and gently inspires in this first of the Tea Shop series, a cozy tale about love lost and found. Steph Vandergrift left all to elope with attorney Rick Manfred and was then left behind before reaching the altar. Beside herself with disbelief, Steph allows a kindly tea shop owner to provide her sustenance for stomach and a bruised soul. Milly Jewell, the twice-widowed shop owner, offers Steph a temporary job at her small restaurant. Having burned her personal bridges with family and friends, Steph thankfully agrees to the arrangement, and soon meets Kendall James, proprietor of the pricey hotel where she was staying before the wedding fell through. Mutually smitten is an understatement as Steph and Kendall immediately connect. Inevitably, obstacles interfere with an otherwise perfectly spun fairy tale. Perry takes what could be a glib, weightless tale and makes her own blend work. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Viscount Reginald Petchey wants his niece's fortune and will do anything to get it, even murder and kidnapping.

Misery Loves Company
|
From Booklist Never has the phrase “misery loves company” been so apt as when Jules Belleno, a distraught and reclusive widow, is kidnapped by her favorite author, Patrick Reagan, who is haunted by his past. Jules is a private blogger while Patrick is a best-selling author, yet as he holds her captive, Jules must decipher the shadow side of his writing to unlock the secrets of her own heart. As the two of them remain isolated, officer Chris Downey investigates Jules’ disappearance and ends up uncovering something much bigger and more sinister than he had imagined. Gutteridge takes readers on a hair-raising and heart-wrenching ride in this suspenseful, character-driven, inspirational crime novel that is reminiscent of Jodi Picoult’s work. Gutteridge’s tale is hard to put down as readers attempt to solve the mystery of Jules’ kidnapping, and as she slowly uncovers the truth about why she’s been captured. Gutteridge’s keen characterization and exciting plot make for a refreshing read as readers eagerly follow the twists and turns that lead to faith. --Carolyn Richard
