Her Story

7 Journeys to Love

By: Jennifer DeCuir,Jenny Jacobs,J. Arlene Culiner,Erin McCauley,Ines Saint,Christy Newton,Johannah Bryson

Love is a winding but satisfying road for these seven heroines as they navigate the twists and turns life throws at them. Wynter’s Journey: Tragedy tore Wynter and Sam apart twelve years ago, and now she’s back at his doorstep, widowed, desperately broke, and very pregnant. What’s a nice guy to do but offer her shelter? But living under the same roof quickly leads to old feelings resurfacing, even if Wynter is determined to leave the pain of Scallop Shores behind. Now the one person Sam wanted to forget is the one person he can’t let go. Sadie’s Story: When businessman Jordan Blaise walks into Sadie Rose Perkins’s bookstore, she’s hoping to sell a paperback or two. Instead he asks her to pose as his wife-to-be so he can convince his dying mother he’ll get the happy-ever-after she has always wanted for him. But even Sadie isn’t prepared for the adventure falling in love turns out to be. All About Charming Alice: Quirky Alice Treemont has given up hope of finding love in rural Blake’s Folly, Nevada, where she spends her time rescuing unwanted dogs and protecting the most unloved creatures on earth: snakes. That is, until dashing and well-to-do author Jace Constant comes to town to research his new book. Opposites indeed attract, and soon the whole town is determined to make a love match. The Betrayal: When Marissa Neil’s husband is killed in an accident, she’s asked to not only pick up the pieces of her life but to clean up the mess he left behind. Luckily, her old high school sweetheart, patrolman Jordan Wayne, offers his help. He’d also like a second chance at showing her real love. But the courts grant custody of Marissa’s adopted daughter to another, and she finds herself drowning in deception and lies. Could love cost her her dearest dream? Charmed: Widowed Jamie Sullivan is determined to forge her own success as a goldsmith and raise her twin sons as a single mother. Nick Grey is the gorgeous, charming, and burned-out headmaster of their private elementary school, and he can’t wait to take a year off to travel the world. Their attraction is blazing, but starting over isn’t in the cards for Jamie, and opening his heart is the last thing on Nick’s agenda. Begin Again: Maisie Scott lost her family and will to live during a tornado, and now this small-town waitress won’t let herself get attached to anyone. Then Ryan Tucker, the new veterinarian in town, starts making regular trips to her diner. He craves a happy family more than his Momma’s apple pie, and Maisie could just fill the missing piece in his heart…but Ryan has a big secret that can destroy this bond. Can Maisie move on from the past and learn to begin again? Lake Effect: Shelby Aylesworth knows the pain of losing a real love. She takes refuge on Whiskey Island to try to put her life back together…until Wyeth Packard, one of NYC’s most eligible bachelors, arrives seeking some peace and quiet while he restores an old manor and vineyard. He has long given up on the idea of finding a woman who will love him for who he is, not what he has. Together, they navigate the slippery slope of starting over. Sensuality Level: Sensual

Lost and Found

8 Learning-to-Love-Again Romances

By: Monica Tillery,JM Stewart,Alexia Adams,Jennifer DeCuir,Leslie P. Garcia,Melinda Dozier,J. Arlene Culiner,Susanne Matthews

Risking their bruised hearts for a second chance at love is a dangerous prospect for these widows and widowers, but risk definitely has its rewards… The Election Connection: War widow Lily Ashton’s heart is closed to love, so she’s the perfect choice to play fiancée to help secure a re-election for her pal, Congressman Ford Richardson. But as they work together, their not-quite engagement starts to feel much more real than either is ready to admit. Luc: Widow and erotic romance author Liz Anderson moved home to the small town of Angel Bay to heal her broken heart. She’s so not ready when friends set her up with a single father ten years her junior. But this hot young chef is igniting her long-dormant desire. Too bad the last thing Luc Rossi’s life has room for is romance. Or can they cook up something that might last a lifetime? Her Faux Fiancé: Hotshot lawyer Erik Sigurdson breezes into town determined to survive a two-week family reunion. He makes his ex, widowed combat photographer Analise Thordarson, an irresistible offer: pretend to be his fiancée and he’ll pay off her grandfather’s debts. But when their fake engagement is complicated by a very real pregnancy, they must sort out just who is using whom and if this sham relationship could lead to a real future. Drawn to Jonah: New York-trained artist Quinn Baker is back home in Scallop Shores to reconnect with her family and figure out what to do with her life. Then handyman Jonah Goodwin asks an intriguing favor: teach him to read. Illiteracy has kept widower Jonah from forging friendships and building a career his daughter could be proud of, and hiding his secret has always been a full-time job. Yet something about Quinn inspires trust—but can she show him that he, too, is deserving of love? Wildflower Redemption: Luz Wilkinson returns to tiny Rose Creek, Texas, to lick her wounds and toughen her resolve against love’s sting. She wants nothing more than to spend her days caring for discarded animals. But will Aaron Estes, her riding student’s widower dad, spur her to try again? Breaking the Rules: A forbidden love affair in the past has led middle school principal Hope Robinson to restart her career in Harbor Bay, Florida, where this time she’s determined to play by the rules. But when a broken foot sends her to the clinic and Dr. Colin Calaway, sparks fly. Widowed Colin is ready to give love another shot, but he’s the father of one of her students. Is happily ever after worth the risk? All About Charming Alice: Quirky Alice Treemont has given up hope of finding love in rural Blake’s Folly, Nevada, where she spends her time rescuing unwanted dogs and protecting snakes. That is, until dashing and well-to-do author Jace Constant comes to town to research his new book. Opposites indeed attract, and soon the whole town is determined to make a love match. In Plain Sight: Widow Misty Starr has fled her past to settle in Pine Falls, New York, where she feels safe enough to sing in an amateur theater revival of Jesus Christ Superstar. Then dashing Nick Anthony joins the cast and stirs up feelings she thought long dead. The doctors say there’s nothing wrong with his vision, yet the former concert pianist and secret CIA courier has been blind since the accident that killed his wife. As Misty and Nick’s attraction grows, so, too, does a series of suspicious events. Nick holds the key to protect them, but only if they both drop their secrets to see the truth.

Man's Best Friend

10 Romances for Pet Lovers

By: Jennifer Lawler,Shelley K Wall,J. Arlene Culiner,Leslie P García,Winter Austin,Becky Flade,Monica Tillery,Lynn Crandall,Rachel Cross,Kristina Knight

It’s a tail-wagging good time for these ten animal-loving couples as they find their happily ever afters with their best four-legged friends’ blessings. Lessons in Magic: While cleaning up cobwebs at her late Aunt Edna’s cottage, Phoebe unexpectedly discovers her latent family talent and summons a demon…who arrives disguised as an irresistible puppy. Noah Rossi, wizard in training, comes to the rescue, but can he save her from accidentally destroying the universe? Text Me: Abigail Jeffries gets a text from a stranger only to discover the sender, Carter Coben, isn’t so strange after all. Soon she’s caught up in a game of assumed identities with the same gorgeous guy she got fired from his job. But Carter has no idea that “She Hearts Dogs” is the girl who blew his world apart. All About Charming Alice: Quirky Alice Treemont spends her time rescuing unwanted dogs and protecting snakes. When refined author Jace Constant comes to town to research his new book, opposites attract, and soon the whole town is determined to make a love match between the country girl and the city slicker. Wildflower Redemption: Luz Wilkinson returns to tiny Rose Creek, Texas, to lick her wounds and toughen her resolve against love’s sting. She wants nothing more than to spend her days caring for discarded animals. But will Aaron Estes, her riding student’s widower dad, spur her to try again? Atonement: A former marine sniper, Deputy Nicolette Rivers hides her PTSD from everyone but detective Con O’Hanlon, who, along with his military dog Cadno, is more than willing to help. But is he too late to prevent Nic’s dark, downward spiral? Or is Con the one man stronger than her demons? Fated Hearts: Sheriff Carter McAlister and his dog, Dublin, have their lives upended when he offers mysterious newcomer Henley Elliott a job as his assistant. Breaking through her carefully built shell proves to be a near-impossible task, and now a dangerous new presence in the Cove seems to be targeting Henley. Sweet Texas Kiss: Veterinarian Gavin Cooper can’t believe country superstar (and the woman who broke his heart) Macy Young will inherit his family home. Luckily, Macy can’t sell the house for one year—plenty of time for him to get it back. Can they find a way to bury their animosity and rediscover their first love in the process? Unstoppable: When veterinarian Lara Monroe’s fellow cat shifter—and secret crush—Booker Chase needs help, she’s willing to use her special healing touch. Booker’s broken from the loss of his wife and burdened with PTSD from his service in Afghanistan, but Lara is showing him flashes of what might be if they can shut down the Nexus Group forever. Bloom: L.A.’s charity fundraising maven Ava Bennett heads out to the middle of nowhere to check on a friend for her rock star client, but never expects to tangle with infamous music producer Nate Robinson, nor endanger his dog’s health. Can a career woman find love with a virtual hermit? What a Texas Girl Dreams: They are opposites in so many ways, but the more veterinarian Trickett Samuels gets to know footloose and fancy free Monica Witte, the more he wonders if he can convince this Texas girl that having roots will only help her soar higher.

Mrs. Lincoln's Rival

A Novel

By: Jennifer Chiaverini

The New York Times bestselling author of Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker and Canary Girls reveals Mary Todd Lincoln’s very public social and political contest with Kate Chase Sprague in this astute and lively novel of the politics of state—set against the backdrop of Civil War Era Washington. Beautiful, intelligent, regal, and entrancing, young Kate Chase Sprague stepped into the role of establishing her thrice-widowed father, Salmon P. Chase, in Washington society as a Lincoln cabinet member and as a future presidential candidate. For her efforts, The Washington Star declared her “the most brilliant woman of her day. None outshone her.” None, that is, but Mary Todd Lincoln. Though Mrs. Lincoln and her young rival held much in common—political acumen, love of country, and a resolute determination to help the men they loved achieve greatness—they could never be friends, for the success of one could come only at the expense of the other...

From Goodwill to Grunge

A History of Secondhand Styles and Alternative Economies

From Goodwill to Grunge

A History of Secondhand Styles and Alternative Economies

By: Jennifer Le Zotte

In this surprising new look at how clothing, style, and commerce came together to change American culture, Jennifer Le Zotte examines how secondhand goods sold at thrift stores, flea markets, and garage sales came to be both profitable and culturally influential. Initially, selling used goods in the United States was seen as a questionable enterprise focused largely on the poor. But as the twentieth century progressed, multimillion-dollar businesses like Goodwill Industries developed, catering not only to the needy but increasingly to well-off customers looking to make a statement. Le Zotte traces the origins and meanings of "secondhand style" and explores how buying pre-owned goods went from a signifier of poverty to a declaration of rebellion. Considering buyers and sellers from across the political and economic spectrum, Le Zotte shows how conservative and progressive social activists--from religious and business leaders to anti-Vietnam protesters and drag queens--shrewdly used the exchange of secondhand goods for economic and political ends. At the same time, artists and performers, from Marcel Duchamp and Fanny Brice to Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain, all helped make secondhand style a visual marker for youth in revolt.

Winning the West for Women

The Life of Suffragist Emma Smith DeVoe

By: Jennifer M. Ross-Nazzal

In 1856, in an opera house in Roseville, Illinois, Susan B. Anthony called for the supporters of woman suffrage to stand. The only person to rise was eight-year-old Emma Smith. And she continued to take a stand for the rest of her life. As a leader in the suffrage movement, Emma Smith DeVoe stumped across the country organizing for the cause, raising money, and helping make the West central to achieving the vote for women. DeVoe used her feminine style to great advantage in the campaign for the vote. Rather than promoting public rallies, she encouraged women to put their energies toward influencing the votes of their fathers, brothers, and husbands. Known as the still-hunt strategy, this approach was highly successful and helped win the vote for women in Washington State in 1910. Winning the West for Women demonstrates the importance of the West in the national suffrage movement. It reveals the central role played by the National Council of Women Voters, whose members were predominantly western women, in securing the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment. Winning the West for Women also tells a larger story of dissension and discord within the suffrage movement. Though ladylike in her courtship of male support for the cause, DeVoe often clashed with other activists who disagreed with her tactics or doubted her commitment to the movement. This fascinating biography describes the real experiences of women and their relationships as they struggled to win the right to vote.

Madison County

By: Jennifer E. Cheeks-Collins

Known as the "Land Between Two Rivers," Madison County is situated between the Pearl River to the east and the Big Black River to the west. It was created in 1828, and African slaves were among its earliest settlers. As the county grew, the African-American society began to create roots in this region, and their legacy continues to this day. Black America: Madison County explores a community marked by struggle, poverty, and segregation, a community that finally gained its voice during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. This volume celebrates the lives of Madison County's black residents-past and present-and tells their story through vintage photographs.

Discovering the South

One Man's Travels through a Changing America in the 1930s

By: Jennifer Ritterhouse

During the Great Depression, the American South was not merely "the nation's number one economic problem," as President Franklin Roosevelt declared. It was also a battlefield on which forces for and against social change were starting to form. For a white southern liberal like Jonathan Daniels, editor of the Raleigh News and Observer, it was a fascinating moment to explore. Attuned to culture as well as politics, Daniels knew the true South lay somewhere between Erskine Caldwell's Tobacco Road and Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind. On May 5, 1937, he set out to find it, driving thousands of miles in his trusty Plymouth and ultimately interviewing even Mitchell herself. In Discovering the South historian Jennifer Ritterhouse pieces together Daniels's unpublished notes from his tour along with his published writings and a wealth of archival evidence to put this one man's journey through a South in transition into a larger context. Daniels's well chosen itinerary brought him face to face with the full range of political and cultural possibilities in the South of the 1930s, from New Deal liberalism and social planning in the Tennessee Valley Authority, to Communist agitation in the Scottsboro case, to planters' and industrialists' reactionary worldview and repressive violence. The result is a lively narrative of black and white southerners fighting for and against democratic social change at the start of the nation's long civil rights era.

Transmedia Storytelling

Pemberley Digital’s Adaptations of Jane Austen and Mary Shelley

By: Jennifer Camden,Kate Faber Oestreich

This volume charts the evolution of Pemberley Digital’s transmedia adaptations of nineteenth-century novels in order to interrogate the uneasy relationship between transmedia storytelling and consumer culture. It first examines two Austen-centered films, Lost in Austen and Austenland, that present “immersive” Austen experiences that anticipate Pemberley Digital’s transmedia adaptations, bridging traditional film adaptations and transmedia’s participatory culture. Subsequent chapters turn to Pemberley Digital’s transmedia adaptations of Austen’s and Shelley’s novels to argue that, although such adaptations may appear feminist in their emphasis on female protagonists, their larger narratives expose a subtext of anxiety about unstable gender roles, financial vulnerability, and the undervaluation of career-specific skill sets, both for the characters and the production company itself. The study provides a robust theoretical framework within which to read transmedia adaptations of “classic literature,” illuminating both the potential of, and the challenges facing, digital and transmedia storytellers and participants.

Feminist Discourse in Irish Literature

Gender and Power in Louise O’Neill’s Young Adult Fiction

By: Jennifer Mooney

Feminist Discourse in Irish Literature addresses the role of young adult (YA) Irish literature in responding and contributing to some of the most controversial and contemporary issues in today’s modern society: gender, and conflicting views of power, sexism and consent. This volume provides an original, innovative and necessary examination of how “rape culture” and the intersections between feminism and power have become increasingly relevant to Irish society in the years since Irish author Louise O’Neill’s novels for young adults Only Ever Yours and Asking For It were published. In consideration of the socio-political context in Ireland and broader Western culture from which O’Neill’s works were written, and taking into account a selection of Irish, American, Australian and British YA texts that address similar issues in different contexts, this book highlights the contradictions in O’Neill’s works and illuminates their potential to function as a form of literary/social fundamentalism which often undermines, rather than promotes, equality.

Street Style in America

An Exploration

By: Jennifer Grayer Moore

A comprehensive resource that will prove invaluable to fashion historians, this book presents a detailed exploration of the breadth of visually arresting, consumer-driven styles that have emerged in America since the 20th century. What are the origins of highly specific denim fashions, such as bell bottoms, skinny jeans, and ripped jeans? How do mass media and popular culture influence today's street fashion? When did American fashion sensibilities shift from conformity as an ideal to youth-oriented standards where clothing could boldly express independence and self-expression? Street Style in America: An Exploration addresses questions like these and many others related to the historical and sociocultural context of street style, supplying both A–Z entries that document specific American street styles and illustrations with accompanying commentary. This book provides a detailed analysis of American street and subcultural styles, from the earliest example reaching back to the early 20th century to contemporary times. It reviews all aspects of dress that were part of a look, considering variations over time and connecting these innovations to fashionable dress practices that emerged in the wakes of these sartorial rebellions. The text presents detailed examinations of specific dress styles and also interrogates the manifold meanings of dress practices that break from the mainstream. This book is a comprehensive resource that will prove invaluable to fashion historians and provide fascinating reading for students and general audiences.
