When Indigenous lawyer Jasmine decides to take her mother, Della, on a tour of England's most revered literary sites, Jasmine hopes it will bring them closer together and help them reconcile the past. Twenty-five years earlier the disappearance of Jasmine's older sister devastated their tight-knit community. This tragedy returns to haunt Jasmine and Della when another child mysteriously goes missing on Hampstead Heath. As Jasmine immerses herself in the world of her literary idols &– including Jane Austen, the Bront&ë sisters and Virginia Woolf &– Della is inspired to rediscover the wisdom of her own culture and storytelling. But sometimes the stories that are not told can become too great to bear. Ambitious and engrossing, After Story celebrates the extraordinary power of words and the quiet spaces between. We can be ready to listen, but are we ready to hear?

Randall Collins had spent all his life applying practical skills to achieve results. As an accountant, he was used to organization, analysis, and responsibility. After he retired, he found himself with a gap in his life; he wanted to be productive, but he’d had enough of being answerable to a boss or a client – he wanted to work on his own terms. Like many people, he turned to gardening and found it to be a compelling, fascinating world. For him, it was a perfect solution – the meticulous, observation-focused mindset he’d developed as an accountant translated beautifully to the process and science of gardening, while the art and creativity required to nurture and grow ornamental plants allowed him to explore a new side of himself. But at the heart of this memoir is Collins’ greatest challenge: how to outsmart a foraging white-tailed deer who saw the garden as his personal gourmet salad bar. A warm, relatable story of how one man came to terms with retirement and nature, Stop…and Smell the Mints is both delightful and educational.

Being inside another kingdom’s prison is not part of the future plan of Alpha Prince Steele North of the Northernland Kingdom. He and his men are accused of abducting with the attempt to assassinate Luna Queen Lily Wolfe, the wife of Alpha King Boone Wolfe of the Wolferaine. If convicted, Prince Steele can face capital punishment. While King Wolfe is his enemy, Prince Steele never has a plan to harm the king’s wife. Especially since the queen is Prince Steele’s own cousin. But if he was not the one who abducted the queen, then who? Somebody was framing him and his men, and the clock was ticking. They need to know the answer fast, otherwise they will have to march to the gallows. The only person fits the profile is Prince Steele’s twin brother, Alpha Prince Damon North. That makes little sense since Prince Damon died six years ago. King Wolfe himself had killed him. Camellia Collins doesn’t know that her fated mate, Prince Damon, has died. People said that Prince Damon was savage and predatory, but Camellia refuses to believe that. Damon that she knew was a kind man who cared for the weak. He was not a vicious prince who had an ambition to rule the strongest kingdom in the whole shifters’ world. It was clear to Camellia that Prince Damon was the victim of a conspiracy. But who would frame Damon? There can only be one person who fits the description: Alpha Prince Steele North. The man wants to be the King of the Northernland, and will have the position by any means necessary. Well, not on Camellia’s watch. They need to stop him, and Camellia will be the person who does the job. There’s only one problem. Alpha Prince Steele North too is Camellia’s fated mate.
