Book Description
Emily thinks she's lost everything...until a mysterious painting leads her to what she wants most in the world. The new novel from the author of international bestsellers The Sweetness of Forgetting and The Life Intended shows why her books are hailed as "engaging" (People), "absorbing" (Kirkus Reviews) and "enthralling" (Fresh Fiction). Emily Emerson is used to being alone; her dad ran out on the family when she was a just a kid, her mom died when she was seventeen, and her beloved grandmother has just passed away as well. But when she's laid off from her reporting job, she finds herself completely at sea...until the day she receives a beautiful, haunting painting of a young woman standing at the edge of a sugarcane field under a violet sky. That woman is recognizable as her grandmother--and the painting arrived with no identification other than a handwritten note saying, "He always loved her." Emily is hungry for roots and family, so she begins to dig. And as she does, she uncovers a fascinating era in American history. Her trail leads her to the POW internment camps of Florida, where German prisoners worked for American farmers...and sometimes fell in love with American women. But how does this all connect to the painting? The answer to that question will take Emily on a road that leads from the sweltering Everglades to Munich, Germany and back to the Atlanta art scene before she's done. Along the way, she finds herself tempted to tear down her carefully tended walls at last; she's seeing another side of her father, and a new angle on her painful family history. But she still has secrets, ones she's been keeping locked inside for years. Will this journey bring her the strength to confront them at last?

Book Description
Sometimes you're interested. Sometimes you can't be bothered. Sometimes love doesn't give you a choice. In Jacob and Lilly's case, love isn't letting either of them go. Jacob Edmonton has a plan for his life, but it doesn't include love. He was Hollywood's quintessential golden boy-until a flash-in-the-pan fling with a high-profile singer upended his world-and his reputation. Now he's nursing more than a wounded ego and his only goal is to repair the damage. But his return to superstardom is shot to hell when his sister winds up undergoing emergency surgery. There he meets Lilly Staver, a straight-shooting nurse who's as brutally honest as she is beautiful. She sees through his suave façade and he wants to hate her until he realizes he can't resist her. Lilly knows all about men like Jacob Edmonton-if you've seen one pretentious, egocentric celebrity-you've seen them all. She's unimpressed with his Hollywood pedigree and his belief that love is reserved solely for maniacs. So why can't she stop thinking about him? Her mind tells her to run as fast as she can from Jacob...but her heart isn't listening. Love as they know it just took a hairpin turn into uncharted territory, but when Jacob's former girlfriend shows up with an opportunity to salvage his career, will he choose the life he knows or the love he never knew existed? This is the first book in the trilogy 'A Series of Moments', chronicling the timeless and heart-wrenching love story of Jacob Edmonton & Lilly Staver.

Book Description
Cut through the busyness and anxieties of daily life to discover the simple happiness of living in the present moment, as taught by a world-renowned Zen monk In this book, Thich Nhat Hanh—Zen monk, author, and meditation master—distills the essence of Buddhist thought and practice, emphasizing the power of mindfulness to transform our lives. But true mindfulness, Hanh explains, is not an escape. It is being in the present moment, totally alive and free. Based on a retreat that Thich Nhat Hanh led for Westerners, You Are Here offers a range of effective practices for cultivating mindfulness and staying in the present moment—including awareness of breathing and walking, deep listening, and skillful speech. These teachings will empower you to witness the wonder of life and transform your suffering, both within and outside you, into compassion, tenderness, and peace. As Thich Nhat Hanh declares, “the energy of mindfulness is the energy of the Buddha, and it can be produced by anybody.” It is as simple as breathing in and breathing out.
