An Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestseller.

From the USA Today bestselling author of A Curve in the Road comes a spellbinding novel about one woman's love, loss, and courage during wartime.

After a crushing betrayal by the man she loves, Gillian Gibbons flees to her family home for a much-needed escape, but when she finds an old photograph of her grandmother in the arms of a Nazi officer, Gillian's life gets even more complicated. Rattled by the discovery, Gillian attempts to unravel the truth behind the photos, setting her off on an epic journey through the past…

1939. England is on the brink of war as Vivian Hughes falls in love with a handsome British official, but when bombs begin to fall and Vivian's happy life is destroyed in the blitz, she will do whatever it takes to protect those she loves…

As Gillian learns more about her grandmother's past, the old photo begins to make more sense. But for every question answered, a new one takes its place.

Captain Hotnessby Weston Parker

I'm a single father. Ex-Military and now a Firefighter.

That means I'm trained to find danger in every situation.

So how did I not see Bailey coming? She's the spark that starts an inferno. She's the fuel for the passion in my heart. She's been nothing more than a friend since we were kids, but fuck me, she's all grown up now.

It's her that I go to for comic relief after a million blind-dates, each more ridiculous than the last.

And then, without any warning, like a backdraft that kills everyone in its path, she swept me right off my feet.

Now I need her the way flames need oxygen. With a passion that leaves me aching and hard as shit.

But will I be able to convince her I've changed? That I'm not the player she thinks I am, but the man I know she wants me to be?

Fuck if I know, but I gotta try with everything inside of me. My best friend's little sister is in for one hell of a love story. It goes something like this…

I'm her man, and my heart is all hers. And her innocent, virgin body is all mine.

Cause with her? I don't put out fires. I start them.

Every good girl deserves a bad boy. ~Weston

Socially Distanced : Voices of a Teacher and Her Students During a World Pandemicby Debi Bober

With less than a day's notice, every teacher across the globe was forced to drastically change the entire teaching and learning system of public and private school as we know it. Students, teachers, and parents around the world were quarantined, stores closed, restaurants boarded up. Life became measured by a "6 foot socially-distanced" norm. However, for children locally and internationally, this instantaneous call to action silenced their needs, locked up their hopes, and felt as if their world had come to an end. This book is the collection of stories from a class of students and their teacher who recorded their thoughts and experiences navigating through the world's COVID-19 pandemic of 2020.  

Trace the social emotional journey of this class of fifth-grade students and their teacher as they learn to navigate how to deal with the effects of the coronavirus on public education in America.
