Beauty in Grey Skies is the story of a happily married, new father who just happened to be battling brain cancer--not a simple form of cancer, but grade-four glioblastoma. That is the worst grade when it's located inside your head. Unfortunately, this story is completely true, and it's about me. 2017 was honestly the best and worst year of my life. I promise you that I am not exaggerating at all with that statement. My wife gave birth to our daughter literally three days after the third attempt to surgically remove the devil from my head. As much as I wish this was fictional, it's truly not. This is our life. I'm still here, still working full-time, enjoying family activities, and watching our beautiful girl grow. I want to share my positivity with anybody dealing with similar health issues, whether it's your battle or someone that you care about. There can be a brighter side of a difficult life. I'm extremely lucky and want to share my story.

How far would you go to protect the ones you love? Sky Griffin's mother is missing. Vanished in what seems like a second. Could she have just wandered off? Or is her disappearance more than meets the eye? Sky is convinced that whatever happened was not an accident, and in fact may hold more secrets than anyone expects. Thus begins her frantic search for answers, for the truth behind her mother's whereabouts. But the chase to find her turns out to be complex in ways Sky could never have imagined, even in her former days in the police force. Extreme measures are taken to find her mother, as Sky goes undercover, disguising her identity in order to find out what might have happened. In the process, she's forced to leave behind the love of her life and her young son, a feat difficult enough in itself. Sky's torrid investigation becomes a mess of emotions, as she struggles to cope with her distance from her family and the fact that she may never see her mother again. Her expedition is complicated further by her encounter with a beautiful woman named Meg. Will Sky leave her old life behind and remain here with Meg, forever searching for her mother?

Thirty years after the smashing success of Zelda, Nancy Milford returns with a stunning second act. Savage Beauty is the portrait of a passionate, fearless woman who obsessed American ever as she tormented herself. If F. Scott Fitzgerald was the hero of the Jazz Age, Edna St. Vincent Millay, as flamboyant in her love affairs as she was in her art, was its heroine. The first woman ever to win the Pulitzer Prize, Millay was dazzling in the performance of herself. Her voice was likened to an instrument of seduction and her impact on crowds, and on men, was legendary. Yet beneath her studied act, all was not well. Milford calls her book "a family romance"—for the love between the three Millay sisters and their mother was so deep as to be dangerous. As a family, they were like real-life Little Women, with a touch of Mommie Dearest. Nancy Milford was given exclusive access to Millay's papers, and what she found was an extraordinary treasure. Boxes and boxes of letter flew back and forth among the three sisters and their mother—and Millay kept the most intimate diary, one whose ruthless honesty brings to mind Sylvia Plath. Written with passion and flair, Savage Beauty is an iconic portrait of a woman's life.
