Pages : 332

Book Description
*Originally published as “I Hate Hate!” in November 2022. Alma is a counselor at the Tolerance Department, known for being patient and kind with even her most difficult clients. But inside, she’s haunted by a feeling that something’s missing. She’s joined by a diverse cast of characters, all trying to make America a better place, including a newscaster whose fans police the streets using just their cell phones, a corporate lawyer battling emotional injustice in his spare time, and a Bangladeshi immigrant convinced—despite all evidence to the contrary—that he’s living the American dream. As the nation grows more and more zealous in its reckoning with its own past and present sins, they all stumble, they all struggle to adapt, and they all come perilously close to ending up on the wrong side of the ideals they so cherish. Hate Hunters takes an unflinching, satirical look at this moment in America, and poses timeless questions about the nature of guilt, shame, punishment, innocence, and redemption.

Book Description
The ruby is the world's most precious and rare stone. For the ancient Hindus, the ruby was Rajnapura: the Gem of Gems, at whose heart surges an eternal, unquenchable flame. Yet, for all its rarity and beauty, the ruby has always been a slightly sinister stone. Indian legend says the ruby was born from the blood of a demon. Indeed, the ruby is very close to a wild, living being: fiery, passionate, and dangerous. It has been at the center of love and wars, a symbol of passion, greed, and strong magic. Ancient sages and modern crystal healers have credited it with strange powers—from the granting of prophetic insight to protecting one from bullets. It has long been part of the human journey: coveted, fought over, and feared. Morgan considers all the beautiful and terrifying facets of this magnificent stone: scientific, economic, mythological, and spiritual. She discusses the great stones and great heists of the ruby world—and the famous fakes, too—the great Black Prince and renowned Timur. She closes with a discussion of the making of synthetic rubies and the laser beam.

Book Description
A Christy Award-nominated title for best new author. When war erupted, she gave up a life of privilege for a life of significance. Tending to the army’s sick and wounded meant leading a life her mother does not understand and giving up a handsome and approved suitor. Yet Charlotte chooses a life of service over privilege, just as her childhood friend had done when he became a military doctor. She soon discovers that she’s combatting more than just the rebellion by becoming a nurse. Will the two men who love her simply stand by and watch as she fights her own battles? Or will their desire for her wage war on her desire to serve God? Wedded to War is a work of fiction, but the story is inspired by the true life of Civil War nurse Georgeanna Woolsey. Woolsey’s letters and journals, written over 150 years ago, offer a thorough look at what pioneering nurses endured. This is the first in the series Heroines Behind the Lines: Civil War, a collection of novels that highlights the crucial contributions made by women during times of war.
