DOWNLOAD EBOOKFamily Man "The Only Child is beautifully written, wonderfully rich, totally satisfying."—Debra Dixon, award-winning author A Child Is Missing… Logan MacMillan hasn't seen his granddaughter, Dulcy, since the toddler was snatched by her fugitive mother three years ago. Logan never gave up hope of finding her until the moment his private investigator handed him a death certificate for a little girl named Dulcy MacMillan. A Child Is Found! Molly Halliday knows that the death certificate can't be Dulcy's. But Logan doesn't trust her. The woman lives in a fantasy world—she makes dolls for a living! However, Logan has to admit that one of her dolls looks exactly like his computer portrait of Dulcy as a five-year-old. And Molly modeled that doll on a child she saw less than a year ago. Join Logan and Molly as they search for Dulcy—and find much, much more than they bargained for."The Only Child is beautifully written, wonderfully rich, totally satisfying. What more could a reader want? Carolyn McSparren is a terrific, talented newcomer who has a gift for finding the emotional compass of a story." —Debra Dixon, award-winning author of Bad to the Bone and Doc Holliday

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAshton, Mississippi, provides the deceptively sterile, conforming, and blindly respectable background in The Welcome, a novel written by Hubert Creekmore in 1948. After moving to New York following Jim’s wedding, Don returns home, routed by the Depression of the 1930s. He finds Jim stuck in an unhappy marriage, and Don's arrival intensifies Jim’s misery. As Jim sinks into alcoholism, Don connects with a new love interest, and their mutual friends persistently try to unlock the secrets between Don and Jim. Ahead of its time in the depiction of same-sex relationships, the novel caused a scandal upon release. As Phillip “Pip” Gordon says in the new introduction written for this edition, “the majority of gay fiction prior to The Welcome structured tragedy as a natural outcome for being gay. Creekmore aimed higher and sought a narrative that does not show the same-sex lovers as flawed for their desires; rather, the problem is context.” Creekmore was a prolific writer, literary critic, editor, translator, photographer, and librettist, and was good friends with famed Mississippi author Eudora Welty. However, Creekmore never had the success of his peers, and his work has been neglected, most of it falling out of print. This new edition recovers a significant addition to the canon of LGBTQ southern literature and a Mississippi author for a generation of new readers and scholars.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe thrilling mountain man series from the creators of Longarm! With a caravanful of ornery pioneers in his command, hired mountain man and guide Will Barlow is loaded down with duties. Foraging for the group’s food, for one. Breaking up fights among his charges, for another. And—although one couldn’t rightly count this as a duty, exactly—stealing time enough for some good, old-fashioned rollicks in the grass with one lusty pioneer-gal. Aside from a few mishaps along the Oregon Trail, Barlow is confident (perhaps too confident) that the troupe’ll arrive safe and sound at the West Coast.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCameron Ross lives a double life. Most people recognize him as the world's hottest leading man--the new Cary Grant. Those people would never recognize him as the man who wakes at the Flying V Ranch in Montana the morning after an epic drunk. That man is a scruffy horseman who seems to fit seamlessly in the mountain valley his ranch inhabits. That man’s name is Noah Campbell. Cameron is a myth. Noah is the real man who bought a ranch in order to remind himself of that fact. What's also real is his ranch manager, Dulcy McCann, who has risked everything to protect her position and her precocious sprite of a daughter, Hannah. Noah knows he should not develop an attachment to either of them. Dulcy thinks he's Noah, a businessman. Her world is Montana, not the fishbowl of notoriety he inhabits. As for Dulcy, she has enough on her hands balancing the rigors of the ranch and the much tougher job of raising her daughter. The last thing she needs in her life is a new boss so compelling he's interfering with both. Especially when they're threatened by secrets Dulcy can't share.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA crafty killer lurks among the prized collectibles of a Southern smalltown flea market in this cozy mystery by a New York Times–bestselling author. There’s nothing Laura Fleming’s Southern family likes better than a get-together, and cousin Augustus returning from the army is a perfect reason to gather for a party in Byerly, North Carolina. While Laura and her scholar husband, Richard, are in town, her formidable great-aunt Maggie has an assignment in mind. Carney Alexander was recently found dead under his own table at Tight as a Tick Flea Market, where Aunt Maggie is a regular dealer. She and the other vendors weren’t overly fond of Carney—general opinion is that the man was nosy, ornery, and had a mean streak a mile wide. Why Aunt Maggie is so intent on solving the crime is a mystery in its own right, but Laura can’t let her down. The flea market’s regulars prove as colorful and quirky as the goods they offer, and plenty had reason for wanting to see Carney and his stall shut down permanently. But locating the genuine article among a slew of motives won’t be easy—especially with the killer in the market for another victim . . . Praise for Tight as a Tick “Decidedly homey characters, country charm, and an upbeat tone should make this a popular choice.” —Library Journal

One early morning, Reverend Short is watching from his bedroom window as the A&P across the street is robbed.

As the crowd gathers to see what happened, a shocking discovery is made: There is another body in the bread basket, and Valentine Haines is dead, really dead. It's up to Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson to find out who murdered Val.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCenterburg might be your town. Grampa Hercules and his never-ending tall tales, Dulcy Dooner, the uncooperative citizen, unbusinesslike Uncle Ulysses and his friendly lunchroom, the flustered sheriff, the pompous judge—they are all as American as they come. But there's a subtle and delightful difference. In Centerburg, along with the routine of day-to-day living, the most preposterous things keep happening. But nothing fazes Homer Price! Ragweeds taller than fire ladders, music that sets a whole town dancing—he solves these problems calmly and efficiently. Homer Price is a boy with a good supply of common sense—and ingenuity! Homer's Grampa Hercules is a delightful old rascal and his extravagent reminiscences of his youth are the starting point of many of the episodes. The chapter titles are as enticing as the chapters themselves: The Hide-a-Ride, Looking for Gold, Ever So Much More So, Experiment 13, Grampa Hercules and the Gravitty-Bitties, Pie and Punch and You-Know-Whats. Mr. McCloskey's characters have warmth and kindness and a healthy curiosity; but they are not above a few minor faults and foibles. They are unmistakenably alive. Like Mr. McCloskey himself, they are perpetually amused by the everyday hazards and discrepancies around them.
