If walls could talk the Anderson cottage on Long Sands Beach would have stories to tell. The Hundredth Time Around is a love story about following your heart, sacrifice, and second chances. Cassidy Quinn is an attorney living in Boston who comes close to making the biggest mistake of her life. Picking up the pieces and retreating back to a town that holds her heart, Cassidy reunites with a summer fling and uncovers a connection exists between them they could never even imagine. In the midst of discovering the secrets and heartbreak that lay deep within her own family's legacy, Cassidy will learn that sometimes when life gives you lemons- it gives you a second (or a hundred) chances to get it right. "This decades-spanning tale of love lost and found ebbs and flows like the tide on the Maine coast that serves as its setting. Cassidy Quinn has known her share of heartbreak, from family tragedy to failed romance. But just when she thinks she's got it all figured out at last, another loss sends her right back to where she started. Now she must unravel the mystery of some intertwined family trees, odd gaps in her memories, and what true love really means." Kim H., Copyeditor, Red Adept Editing

Travel Michigan’s coast—and into the state’s history—with otherworldly tales of the spirits of those who sought to keep its waters safe. Michigan has more lighthouses than any other state, with more than 120 dotting its expansive Great Lakes shoreline. Many of these lighthouses lay claim to haunted happenings. Former keepers like the cigar-smoking Captain Townshend at Seul Choix Point and prankster John Herman at Waugoshance Shoal near Mackinaw City maintain their watch long after death ended their duties. At White River Light Station in Whitehall, Sarah Robinson still keeps a clean and tidy house, and a mysterious young girl at the Marquette Harbor Lighthouse seeks out other children and female companions. Countless spirits remain between Whitefish Point and Point Iroquois in an area well known for its many tragic shipwrecks. Join author and Promote Michigan founder Dianna Stampfler as she recounts the tales from Michigan’s ghostly beacons. “Haunting tales of Michigan’s lighthouses . . . Her stories come from lighthouse museums, friends and family.”—Great Lakes Echo

"New England is known to have one of the most rugged coastlines in the world. This book was developed to provide the reader a series of stories that encompass the brave men and women of New England who risked their lives at or near New England's lighthouses. These individuals were not only part of the lighthouse, lifesaving, and revenue cutter government services of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, but also encompass a town's own citizens, local mariners, or a ship's captain and crew, who would also risk their lives alongside their government counterparts in helping those in distress."--Preface.
