In the early 1800s, New England pioneers braved the Ohio wilderness and settled on a tract of frontier land in central Ohio; this settlement was to become Worthington. During the nineteenth century, Worthington was mainly a sleepy market village, providing necessities for the surrounding farms. In the early twentieth century, Worthington evolved from its quiet, small-town days to asuburb of the growing metropolis of Columbus. The area experienced dramatic growth after World War II created the present suburban city. Tracing WorthingtonAa's dynamic history through time is especially significant now because the town is on the verge of celebrating its bicentennial (2003), which notably corresponds with OhioAa's 200th anniversary of official statehood. A compilation of nearly 200 photographs gathered from such varied sources as the Worthington Historical Society, the National Archives, local businesses, and private citizens helps enrich and vary this collection. These photographs and insightful text offer a visual history that captures the true breadth of WorthingtonAa's past.

In this entry of the USA Today–bestselling Regency romance series, a widow gets a second chance at love when reunited with a dashing viscount. Patience was the second wife of the Earl of Worthington before he died. So why shouldn’t Patience be allowed a second chance at marriage, too? Of course, finding a new husband was not something the mother of four had ever planned on. But a surprise encounter with her first love has suddenly made the impossible seem possible all over again… It seems like a lifetime ago that Richard, Viscount Wolverton, was halfway around the world, looking for adventure…while Patience, at her coming-out, was left with no choice but to take old Worthington’s hand. Richard never forgot the woman whose heart he yearned for—and now that he’s back, he’s not going to let her slip away again… Praise for The Worthingtons series “A classic Regency romp! Perfect for fans of Grace Burrowes.”—Caroline Linden, USA Today–bestselling author on When a Marquis Chooses a Bride “Three Weeks to Wed is a delightfully heartwarming escape into the sparkling world of the Regency. Ella Quinn weaves magic.”—Cathy Maxwell, New York Times–bestselling author

Suzie Cain has more problems than she can count—the least of which is the fact that, if she touches a person, that person’s going to die within the week. That, at least, she can work with. If people want to give her money to hang out with terrible people, well—it isn’t anyone’s idea of a good time, but it’s a living. She has bigger problems. For starters, she doesn’t know who she is. Oh, she knows she’s Suzie, orphan and foster kid. She knows she’s dangerous. But why? Where did she come from? Her only clue is an old photo of a very angry woman with some sort of…shadow hovering behind her and a strange poem—or is it a curse?—written on the back. And now she’s picked up a new problem, a biker named Ace who seems to be tracking her across state lines. He’s operating under the assumption that Suzie is a mercenary for hire, just like he is—and he doesn’t like the competition. But when she’s got the chance, she doesn’t touch him and she doesn’t know why. If Suzie can break her curse, she can change her luck. But life is never that simple. Because of course not.

Square By: P. Randolph Square introduces us to a good, faithful man who works too much while his family falls apart, his wife cheats, and his health declines. Everyone sees his value and he understands time when his health is in question. This story is an entertaining and educational tale of what can happen if you don’t take the time and pay attention. If you don't take the time to say who you are and what you care about, what you value, what you work on, what you work for, and pay attention to your life and enjoy it, it has not been fulfilled.
