Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ingenious . . . Mary B is a tribute not just to [Jane] Austen but to defiant women of any era.”—USA Today The overlooked middle sister in Pride and Prejudice casts off her prim exterior and takes center stage in this fresh retelling of the classic novel. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY REAL SIMPLE What is to be done with Mary Bennet? She possesses neither the beauty of her eldest sister, Jane, nor the high-spirited wit of second-born Lizzy. Even compared to her frivolous younger siblings, Kitty and Lydia, Mary knows she is lacking in the ways that matter for single, not-so-well-to-do women in nineteenth-century England who must secure their futures through the finding of a husband. As her sisters wed, one by one, Mary pictures herself growing old, a spinster with no estate to run or children to mind, dependent on the charity of others. At least she has the silent rebellion and secret pleasures of reading and writing to keep her company. But even her fictional creations are no match for the scandal, tragedy, and romance that eventually visit Mary’s own life. In Mary B, readers are transported beyond the center of the ballroom to discover that wallflowers are sometimes the most intriguing guests at the party. Beneath Mary’s plain appearance and bookish demeanor simmers an inner life brimming with passion, humor, and imagination—and a voice that demands to be heard. Set before, during, and after the events of Pride and Prejudice, Katherine J. Chen’s vividly original debut novel pays homage to a beloved classic while envisioning a life that is difficult to achieve in any era: that of a truly independent woman. Praise for Mary B “Charming and smart . . . a heedless downhill pleasure—plush, ironic and illuminating.”—Newsday “Watching [Mary] come into her own is a delight.”—People “A new, wholly original perspective on the classic . . . This is the ultimate Austen adaptation for our time.”—Real Simple “The best part about Mary’s star turn is that it bears little relation to the fates of her sisters. She’s a simmering, churning, smart woman determined to concoct an independent life.”—The Washington Post

Book excerpt: Carter Years ago, Naomi was the girl who'd saved my life without knowing it. All it took was a handful of innocent words from her to change the decision I was about to make. Ending up in the same town hundreds of miles away from our hometown wasn't exactly a fluke. I knew what loss was. I'd felt the pain and knew how easy it was to suffocate under it, but what if I was the wrench that fit all the pieces of her life and held them in place, so she could put it back together again for her and her niece. What if I was her monkey wrench, and what if she was mine? Naomi Raising my niece by myself wasn't easy but moving to Piersville from Fernandina Beach was the best decision I could have made for us. I just didn't count on Carter Lane being here, too. He'd always been quiet, but around me, that changed. I just don't know what anything the guy does means, though. Carter's helpful, he's great with Shanti, makes me laugh, and it blew my mind when he gave me the Blow Pop I'd given him all those years ago in a frame. Changing life paths isn't easy, but it's a damn sight simpler than trying to figure out a man's mind. Especially his.

Book excerpt: Blake Crystal has the best of almost everything. She's at the top of her game at work, she has four wonderful daughters, and, at fifty, she's more financially secure than she's ever been. What's more, both in and out of the bedroom, her new younger lover is taking her in breath-taking directions; a man who is expanding her social circles and her bedroom repertoire? Incredible! And well deserved too, by Blake's own reckoning. Pride comes before a fall, though, and in topical Mary B. Morrison style, one hell of a fall is coming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her most riveting novel yet, New York Times bestselling author Mary B. Morrison delivers an emotional rollercoaster of a tale of four new friends chasing after their heart's desires, no matter the cost... For Jordan, Victoria, Kingston, and Chancelor, fast-paced Atlanta offers everything their hometowns couldn't. But career success is easy compared to the city's dating scene of users, losers, and gold diggers. So they decide online dating might be the answer--as long as they take precautions, work their perfect odds-beating plan, and have each other's backs. Maybe they'll even find excitement and real love... An accomplished lawyer, Jordan must look hard at potential suitors. But Terrence seems to be the man of her dreams, until accusations and her career threaten to come between them...Sixty-something real estate pro Victoria thinks young men equal the satisfaction that a good Christian woman like her deserves, but anything-goes sex makes her bet more than she can afford to lose...Basketball star Kingston has the perfect life and wife, but exploring what he really wants on the downlow is a game he may not win...And for marketing guru Chancelor, the Net is a paradise of prey, but the consequences could blow more than his schemes apart. Soon enough, all four friends' lives are in danger of being upended. And the results could rack up a price no one can pay.

Book excerpt: Grounded in nature and the body's knowledge of death, Mary B. Moore's fifth poetry collection queries the divine, evoking its traces in doubt, dread, and awe; in language's music and its ability to make be; in earth's prismatic effulgence and its cataclysm and charism. Inventive in image, metaphor, and wordplay, Moore mourns belief and its loss. Moore's poems are influenced by Elizabeth Bishop and Marianne Moore in their keen eye toward the natural world, and by John Donne, Gerard Manley Hopkins, and Mary Szybist in their ardor to stretch language to address the sacred.

And with Madison out of the country, Loretta couldn't resist looking after Chicago's interests and reigniting his passion for life--in and out of bed. But now Madison wants to take back what's no longer hers, and that's a mistake Loretta plans to make her regret"--Amazon.com.
