Book excerpt: Ever wonder what gives French women that je ne sais quoi? At first you might think it's the elegant figure, matchless style, and mysterious allure. Then you realize those qualities don't come from just anywhere. They come from generations of women raised to cultivate an extraordinary sense of self. French women know who they are, like who they are, and excel at presenting who they are. The rest of us are often susceptible to the next fad, the new thing, the ultimate diet. We're always seeking, instead of realizing that what we already are may be just right. Rarely does an American woman feel as comfortable in her own skin as her French counterpart. And rarely does an American woman have that essentially French ability to say no---to refuse anything that doesn't suit her, whether that thing is a job, a man, or the season's latest styles. Provocative and practical, lively and intelligent, Entre Nous unlocks the mystery of the French girl and the secrets of her self-possession. Why do French women always look inimitably stylish? How do they manage to sit in a café for a three-course lunch and a glass of wine...by themselves? How do they decide when they're ready to let someone become a part of their very private lives? Laced with practical tips, engaging sidebars, and essential observations about French women and their ways, Entre Nous is a delightful book that will help you take the best of all pages from the French girl's book---the page that reveals how to really enjoy life.

Book excerpt: French-Nigerian orphan Maude Laurent is recorded singing in a Parisian cafe and becomes an internet star. Whisked away to New York City, Maude chases her dreams while battling with her annoying collaborator and pursuing the truth about her family. From debut author Anna Adams, this delightful YA romcom is all about finding yourself, your family, and perfect harmony in the big city. Maude Laurent is an orphan. Raised in a small town in northern France, she's always wondered about her parents. Her foster family certainly won't tell her anything. For them, she's someone to cook meals, clean their house, and look after their twin boys. But Maude dreams of more: becoming an opera star and singing on the great stages of Europe. Her Cinderella moment arrives when she's livestreamed playing the piano and singing in a café during a school trip to Paris. Suddenly she's an internet sensation and music studios are pursuing her with promises of stardom. Maude agrees to spend six months in New York writing and recording three singles. If they become hits, she can stay and record an album. If they don't, she'll have to return home. Maude knows she has the drive and talent to succeed, but she also knows that her father used to live in the city... Perhaps she can have it all: a successful music career and the chance to learn more about her family. However, first she'll have to survive rival artists and an arrogant collaborator. Can she beat the clock and find her perfect harmony?

Book excerpt: "Finely wrought; Ollestad builds a delicate tension between the characters, exposing their raw desire and exploring the concept of artistic inspiration...A quietly tense and absorbing read." —Kirkus French Girl with Mother is a provocative, propulsive thriller that marries the spirit of James Salter with a hint of Patricia Highsmith and the velocity of The Art Forger. Nathan is a young artist traveling across Europe in search of the emotional fire that has been missing from his work. He's been deemed by his mentors and critics as technically skillful but uninspired —criticisms he fears to be true. On a Paris street, he witnesses the volatile breakup of a young French woman and her beau. Nathan pursues a meeting with the woman and it very quickly becomes evident that her provocative charisma and scathing beauty just may conjure the electricity he has been seeking for his work. So when the woman invites him to her parents' crumbling, centuries–old chateau in the country to allow him to sketch her, he accepts, knowing that this proposition is both ill advised and thrilling. Once enveloped by this isolated estate, a door opens to a world Nathan is not prepared for. The arrival of the young woman's family—her mother, a volatile, voracious former ballerina, her father, a mysterious businessman with secrets of his own, and her uncle, who might be trafficking in art forgeries.
