Raelynn Rivers dreams of reviving her floundering career. The "Country Music Queen" hasn't had a number one hit in six years, and her song-writing ability has vanished. But Raelynn's hopes are derailed when tragedy strikes. Returning to her home town forces her to confront her past—Lane Ryan, the childhood best friend and former fiance she abandoned in order to pursue her music career. In the snow-covered mountains of Appalachia, Raelynn reconnects with family and rediscovers her musical abilities—and her faith. And no one inspires her more than Lane. She's finally ready for a relationship, but the secret Lane carries is as big as Coal Mountain and threatens any future they may have together. Second chances don't come around every day. Will Raelynn sacrifice her career this time or say goodbye to Lane forever?

Petals, a closeness from each other for a harmony of a family! Flowers, a fragrance soft, a freshness, and cleanliness, a comfort of my family! Leaves, seasons changes, a line or a fold not similar all seasons! An art, I express for an appreciation, a grace, and a peace, harmony amidst any! Devotion, and appreciation, I learn from a task for a care! Flowers, a difference of layers, petals a difference, seasons! A farm I tend to for a harvest with prayers of devotion, lest a stare of distress true! Fallen leaves, a life lost, a new beginning, a new leaf! Sunrise buttercups, eyes wide-open, until sunset, a buttercup new, a friendship new! Woods a curtain of trees, seasons, a difference! Leaves forlorn an autumn, a book for a devotion! Flowers full, a full moon every a month, my prayers of sincerity for a life of fulfillment! A village, a path I search for, for a sunrise, sunset, seasons, a village, a home of peace and harmony!

Longlisted for the 2019 Michael Murphy Memorial Prize. Shortlisted for the 2019 Seamus Heaney First Collection Prize. Shortlisted for the 2019 Somerset Maugham Award from the Society of Authors. Shortlisted for the 2018 T. S. Eliot Prize. Winner of the 2018 Forward (Felix Dennis) Prize for Best First Collection A Poetry Book Society Spring 2018 Recommendation Wandering in central Europe, a traveller observes and records a landscape of lakes, folk culture and uneasy histories. Phoebe Power's Shrines of Upper Austria gathers numerous stories and perspectives, such as the fragmented narrative of an Austrian woman who married a British soldier after the Second World War, and the voices of schoolchildren and immigrants. Strange discoveries are made: a grave for two dead goats; a lantern procession on the night of Epiphany; a baby abandoned by a river; a homemade frog-puppet. The poems are a collage of stories and histories, set in a variety of forms and registers. They are attentive to local detail, rich in the names of people and places - Marija, Omegepta, Eck 4 and the Loser Mountain. Mixing poetry and prose, image and narrative, German and English, Power's poems are a celebration of creativity in unlikely places. Against a disquieting backdrop of mild winters and memories of snow, they invite us to question what it means to feel at once a stranger and at home.

It was a really good read! One that adventure romance readers will enjoy!” — Reedsy Discovery Reviewer "Another great story by CB Samet. Kept me on my toes with each twist and turn. Would definitely recommend this and the others in the series.” —Goodreads Reviewer “Wow. The undeniable attraction between the two. It is like fighting fire with fire. There is No cliffhanger. It has a HEA. It is a Page-turner which I enjoyed reading.” —Booksprout Reviewer

In Behind the Curtain 2, author Marc LeVitre pulls back the curtain once again to reveal the Truth as seen in mainstream movies. These films have been chosen because they have impacted LeVitre on a spiritual level. He delves into such themes as coming-of-age, dealing with the cruel world, sports, the despicable, and Disney. LeVitre also analyzes film that should have been in the first book but were not because they were then too complicated or were not on his radar, and he adds to and/or corrects comments made in the first book. LeVitre, in most cases, ties films to Scripture. However, his Holy Spirit again has led him to explore areas of his life in a few instances. The author had believed the first book would be the last, for about a week. Then God inundated him with what appears in this volume. Since the beginning, LeVitre, a pastor's son, has been looking for the moral of the story, and by doing so, has been entertained, but more importantly, has been enlightened. LeVitre has been proud to call New Hampshire home since 1968.
