DOWNLOAD EBOOKStories From the Sheriff’s Daughter is a beautifully written short novel that follows the life of a nine-year-old girl who moves to a small-town Texas county jail when her dairy farmer father is elected sheriff. In these engaging episodes, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, days in small-town Texas in the 1950s and 60s spring to life. The family’s house is only separated from the jail by a carport, so the sheriff’s daughter grows up in the jail’s environment of lawmen, prisoners, and politics. She bumps up against some of life’s worst tragedies, including murder, rape, and suicide, despite her parents’ attempts to protect her innocence. In this very different coming-of-age story, the sheriff’s daughter moves into adulthood, trying to find her own identity, her life forever affected by growing up next door to a county jail. Though the stories in the novel are fiction, the author actually did grow up at the Burleson County jail in Texas, where her father, and eventually her mother, served as sheriffs of the county.

As they set up a sting operation to take down the revenge-seeking criminal who was clearly trying to get to Logan through Samantha, chilling new evidence came to light. Now Samantha wondered who the real target was—and whether she would stay alive long enough to succumb to the boldly seductive man she’d been saving all her love for!

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“The Widows kept me on the edge of my seat. Montgomery is a masterful storyteller.” —Lee Martin, author of Pulitzer Prize-Finalist The Bright Forever Inspired by the true story of Ohio’s first female sheriff, Jess Montgomery’s powerful, lyrical debut is the story of two women who take on murder and corruption at the heart of their community. Kinship, Ohio, 1924: When Lily Ross learns that her husband, Daniel, the town’s widely respected sheriff, has been killed while transporting a prisoner in an apparent accident, she vows to seek the truth about his death. Hours after his funeral, a stranger appears at her door. Marvena Whitcomb, a coal miner’s widow, is unaware that Daniel has died and begs to speak with him about her missing daughter. From miles away but worlds apart, Lily’s and Marvena’s lives collide as they realize that Daniel was perhaps not the man that either of them believed him to be. *BONUS CONTENT: This edition of The Widows includes a new introduction from the author and a discussion guide "The Widows is a gripping, beautifully written novel about two women avenging the murder of the man they both loved."—Hallie Ephron, New York Times bestselling author of You'll Never Know, Dear "Jess Montgomery's gorgeous writing can be just as dark and terrifying as a subterranean cave when the candle is snuffed out, but her prose can just as easily lead you to the surface for a gasp of air and a glimpse of blinding, beautiful sunlight. This is a powerful novel: a tale of loss, greed, and violence, and the story of two powerful women who refuse to stand down."—Wiley Cash, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Ballad, A Land More Kind than Home, and This Dark Road to Mercy "[A] flinty, heartfelt mystery that sings of hawks and history, of coal mines and the urgent fight for social justice."—Julia Keller, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Bone on Bone

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a message from the Virgin Girl: From here, I will start my life. From here, I will build a bridge, walk on it, go up to the top of the ranks that many people dream of, break all the barriers that stand in my way, and walk on it and then rise to the top and raise my head. I dream of a prosperous future a lot—one that can fill my life with joy and happiness and raise the reputation of my family. Yes, I was born to a low-income but respectable family, and I was subjected to the worst methods of persecution. I have received tempting offers from senior people in businesses about selling my beautiful body to them so they could relish it on quiet music strings and piano tones. I didn’t care about the palaces filled with bliss I couldn’t get, and I turned down all these offers and walked with a clean, pure, and flawless face to confront a bitter and difficult life. But I promised myself to strike hard at the one who hurt my family and me, who distorted my good reputation. I have a hellish internal power. I’m not going to show it right now, but I will unleash it in front of the one who thinks he can buy me with money. I lost my family, and I stayed alone and had no one in my life, but I will take revenge on the one who destroyed my life. I will raise the flag of triumph in the end.
