From the beloved and bestselling author of the Ransom Canyon and Harmony, Texas series comes a powerful, heartwarming story about generations of family and the ironclad bonds they forge. When Jillian James lands in the small-town Texas community of Laurel Springs, she’s just looking to find a few clues about the father who abandoned her and destroyed her faith in family.

When Connor meets down-on-her-luck Jillian, he’s out of options. Can he trust the newcomer to do right by his grandmother’s legacy? Jillian is done with relationships. But as she grows closer to Connor and Eugenia, she must consider giving up her nomadic life for a future with those who need her—in this inspiring family saga that asks us to consider what love and chosen family really mean. “A tissue-worthy book to treasure.” —BookPage (Top Pick in Romance) “Thomas hits another winner.” —Library Journal “You can count on Jodi Thomas to give you a satisfying and memorable read.” —Catherine Anderson

The National Book Award–winning biography that tells the story of how young Teddy Roosevelt transformed himself from a sickly boy into the vigorous man who would become a war hero and ultimately president of the United States, told by master historian David McCullough. Mornings on Horseback is the brilliant biography of the young Theodore Roosevelt. Hailed as “a masterpiece” (John A. Gable, Newsday), it is the winner of the Los Angeles Times 1981 Book Prize for Biography and the National Book Award for Biography. Written by David McCullough, the author of Truman, this is the story of a remarkable little boy, seriously handicapped by recurrent and almost fatal asthma attacks, and his struggle to manhood: an amazing metamorphosis seen in the context of the very uncommon household in which he was raised. The father is the first Theodore Roosevelt, a figure of unbounded energy, enormously attractive and selfless, a god in the eyes of his small, frail namesake. The mother, Mittie Bulloch Roosevelt, is a Southerner and a celebrated beauty, but also considerably more, which the book makes clear as never before. There are sisters Anna and Corinne, brother Elliott (who becomes the father of Eleanor Roosevelt), and the lovely, tragic Alice Lee, TR’s first love. All are brought to life to make “a beautifully told story, filled with fresh detail” (The New York Times Book Review). A book to be read on many levels, it is at once an enthralling story, a brilliant social history and a work of important scholarship which does away with several old myths and breaks entirely new ground. It is a book about life intensely lived, about family love and loyalty, about grief and courage, about “blessed” mornings on horseback beneath the wide blue skies of the Badlands.

As they agreed on the night of their high school graduation, Leiklyn and her two friends, Tiffany and Willen meet on the porch of the Manor at Blueberry Beach on April Fool's day, eighteen years after being given their diplomas. Life hadn't turned out as expected for any of them. A single mother for fifteen years, Leiklyn recently lost her job in HR for an oil company and her unemployment is running out. Could the manor she and her friends bought for $1 at a tax sale in celebration of graduation be the change she needs to move forward in her life? Or will it just complicate things when she finds out the explosive secret her fifteen-year-old daughter is hiding? When she finds out that her old high school crush - and the only one who knows her most terrible secret - now owns the hardware store and will be working closely with them on renovations, Leiklyn must choose whether she wants to start over somewhere else, or whether the draw of spending misty mornings by the lake with a man who understands her all too well is worth the risk to her heart. Reviews for Misty Mornings: ★★★★★ "This book was so good I didn't want it to end and I'm anxious for the next book. A heartwarming story that captivated me from the beginning. I can't wait for the next book." - MJ ★★★★★ "A story of midlife, with real drama, & a second chance at life and love. It has a sweet romance woven through and an undercurrent of faith for hope." - Kindle Customer ★★★★★ "Jessie writes about imperfect people making less than ideal decisions-so basically any one of us. She helps us see how those decisions make sense to the characters and gives us such empathy and caring. She doesn't excuse the wrong choices or downplay the consequences, but she shows how they can be redeemed and turn their lives around. This is Jessie at her best, telling a story that pulls you in and makes you forget the rest of your life, while lovingly planting seeds of goodness and redemption." - Wren ★★★★★ "This is a delightful book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I love the way Jessie brings God's guidance and His forgiveness into the story. As you read the book you can't help but love the characters. If you like a good cozy romance, you will enjoy this book. You just can't go wrong with a Jessie Gussman book!" - jill ★★★★★ "The characters really made this story, especially Leiklyn and Ethan, who had carried a tremendous secret between them that broke up their friendship in high school. I enjoyed watching them open up to each other and to try to overcome and move on together from the past." - lori Books in the Blueberry Beach series: Yesterday's Treasures Tomorrow's Blessings Beautiful Forevers Precious Memories Misty Mornings Sweet Afternoons

On a fateful Tuesday in September, two strangers meet for a startling moment in a smoke-filled stairway. Only one will leave the Twin Towers alive. Will he find his way home?
