Anyone who has ever created a garden knows that it is a process replete with drama: there's the feverish excitement of drawing up plans and making lists of plants; the bleak depression of realizing that the plans will have to be altered; the "Eureka!" moment when a brilliant solution presents itself; the grim frustration of dealing with meddlesome neighbors and recalcitrant plants. For Beverley Nichols (1898–1983), making a new garden in a London suburb in the years just before World War II was positively operatic in its emotional trajectory. Fans of Beverley Nichols will find in Green Grows the City the same elements that have delighted them in his other books: the wit, the style, the cats, and of course Gaskin, gentleman's gentleman extraordinaire. Those new to Nichols are in for a rare treat.

A light-hearted, laugh-out-loud story about a loveable late bloomer, for fans of Janet Evanovich. After twenty years in New York, Beverley Green has had enough of big-city anonymity. Guthrie, the former capital of her home state of Oklahoma, seems like the perfect place to fulfill her dreams of owning chickens and opening an independent bookstore. But neither of those things pays the bills (yet), so she accepts a side gig as a reporter for the local paper. Trouble is, she’s been instructed to cover a spate of Bigfoot sightings, which makes her question her boss’ commitment to journalism … and the sanity of the entire town. Because everyone—from her persnickety landlady to Guthrie’s grumpy sheriff—seems to believe in Sasquatch. Beverley’s convinced they’re nuts, but if she proclaims herself as the only unbeliever, she risks being forever thought of as the resident outsider. And outsiders don’t sell many books. Desperate for help with the article, Beverley enlists the local “Bigfoot expert” (and resident cute guy) Danny Cadence to take her on an overnight Sasquatch stakeout. The night results in more than one front-page-worthy story … and as Beverley soon discovers, once you add in a nosey landlady, one cantankerous chicken, and, well, Bigfoot … the simple life may not be so simple after all! Beverley Green’s First Adventure is the first book in the sassy and irreverent Beverley Green Adventures series. If you’re looking to lose yourself in a lighthearted yarn, this is the novel for you!

A heartfelt story about a grinch who’s about to learn the upside of the holiday season, for fans of Janet Evanovich Beverley Green has never been big on holiday spirit. But after writing a hit article for the local paper about a spate of recent Bigfoot sightings, she knows she’d be silly not to capitalize on her newfound popularity and include her new bookstore in the upcoming Territorial Christmas celebration. It’s Guthrie, Oklahoma’s biggest community event of the year—but with period costumes and a parade, it’s also way out of Beverley’s Christmas comfort zone. As if that’s not enough to turn Beverley into a grinch, her sister’s just informed her that she needs to babysit her eleven-year-old twin niece and nephew over Christmas break. And Beverley? Well, she’d have a better shot at world peace than understanding kids. To Beverley’s great surprise, her niece and nephew turn out to be excellent—and handy—houseguests. But the bookshop’s fate takes a turn when an orphaned hamster puts Beverley on the naughty list of her shop’s cantankerous landlady, who threatens eviction. With Beverley’s reputation—and business—on the line, her holiday spirit is in danger of melting faster than a Sasquatch snowman on a sunny day. But little does she know, help can come from the most unlikely places—and the friendly face of a local Bigfoot expert under the mistletoe just might restore her faith in Christmas… Enjoy the heck out of the holidays and pick up Beverley Green’s First Territorial Christmas, the second book in the Beverley Green Adventures series!
