Book Description: The lighthouse gave hope to sailors for over a hundred years. Now, decommissioned and out of service, it sits broken and abandoned on the shores of Manitoulin Island. Moriah Robertson, co-owner and handywoman of an adjacent fishing resort, is determined to purchase and restore the lighthouse that sheltered five generations of Robertson lightkeepers. She’s worked many long hours to save enough money to purchase it, hoping the government has accepted her fair offer. As she waits, Ben, a Master Stonemason, rents a cabin from her for the summer. It feels like a gift from God when she discovers that Ben has the hard-to-find skills necessary to restore “her” lighthouse. Unfortunately, Ben is harboring a secret that will break Moriah’s heart. Ben is the right man for the job, but is he the right man for Moriah? Author Bio: USA Today Best-Selling Author Serena B. Miller has won numerous awards, including the RITA, the CAROL, and was a finalist for the CHRISTY Award.

She resides in the beautiful southern Ohio countryside surrounded by three hardworking sons, three talented daughters-in-law, six utterly brilliant grandchildren, and four lazy porch dogs. When she isn't writing, researching, or traveling, she spends her time playing with grandchildren, failing at yet another decluttering mission, or sitting on the front porch counting her blessings.
The Lightkeepers' Menagerie
Author: Elinor De Wire
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1561648671
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Elinor De Wire has been writing about lighthouses and their keepers since 1972. During that time she found that hundreds of lighthouse animals wandered into her research notes and photo collection. This book is the story of all these cold-nosed, whiskered, wooly, hoofed, horned, slithery, buzzing, feathered, and finned keepers of the lights. Where else would a dog learn to ring a fogbell, a cat go swimming and catch a fish for its supper, or a parrot cuss the storm winds rattling its cage? Who other than a lightkeeper would swim a cow home, tame a baby seal, adopt an orphan alligator, send messages via carrier pigeons, or imagine mermaids coming to visit? The Lightkeepers' Menagerie gathers together animal stories from lighthouses all around the world, tales of happiness and sadness, courage and cowardice, tragedy and comedy, even absurdity. Sometimes, fur, feathers, and fins tell the best tales.

Book Description
‘We were three: complete, as we were meant to be…’ Ego, Zina and Eriife were always destined to be best friends, ever since their grandmothers sat next to each other on a dusty bus to Lagos in the late 1940s, forging a bond that would last generations. But over half a century later, Nigeria is a new and modern country. As the three young women navigate the incessant strikes and political turmoil that surrounds them, their connection is shattered by a terrible assault. In the aftermath, nothing will remain the same as life takes them down separate paths. For Ego, now a high-powered London lawyer, success can’t mask her loneliness and feelings of being an outsider. Desperate to feel connected to Nigeria, she escapes into a secret life online. Zina’s ambition is to be anyone but herself; acting proves the ultimate catharsis, but it comes at the cost of her family. And Eriife surprises everyone by morphing from a practising doctor to a ruthless politician’s perfect wife. When Ego returns home, the three women’s lives become entwined once more, as Nigeria’s political landscape fractures. Their shared past will always connect them, but can they – and their country – overcome it?
