NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Justice Neil Gorsuch reflects on his journey to the Supreme Court, the role of the judge under our Constitution, and the vital responsibility of each American to keep our republic strong. As Benjamin Franklin left the Constitutional Convention, he was reportedly asked what kind of government the founders would propose. He replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” In this book, Justice Neil Gorsuch shares personal reflections, speeches, and essays that focus on the remarkable gift the framers left us in the Constitution. Justice Gorsuch draws on his thirty-year career as a lawyer, teacher, judge, and justice to explore essential aspects our Constitution, its separation of powers, and the liberties it is designed to protect. He discusses the role of the judge in our constitutional order, and why he believes that originalism and textualism are the surest guides to interpreting our nation’s founding documents and protecting our freedoms. He explains, too, the importance of affordable access to the courts in realizing the promise of equal justice under law—while highlighting some of the challenges we face on this front today. Along the way, Justice Gorsuch reveals some of the events that have shaped his life and outlook, from his upbringing in Colorado to his Supreme Court confirmation process. And he emphasizes the pivotal roles of civic education, civil discourse, and mutual respect in maintaining a healthy republic. A Republic, If You Can Keep It offers compelling insights into Justice Gorsuch’s faith in America and its founding documents, his thoughts on our Constitution’s design and the judge’s place within it, and his beliefs about the responsibility each of us shares to sustain our distinctive republic of, by, and for “We the People.”

From USA TODAY bestselling author Tamera Alexander comes an award-winning historical romance. Desperate for a fresh start, McKenna Ashford accepts her cousin's invitation to move west with her rebellious younger brother to the rugged wilds of the Colorado Territory, but what she finds there will be the greatest challenge of her life. Determined to tame her fourteen-year-old younger brother’s rebellious streak, twenty-three-year-old McKenna Ashford accepts her cousin’s invitation to move west and start over. McKenna arrives only to find that her cousin and her cousin's husband have died, leaving their five-year-old daughter an orphan—and that life in Copper Creek, Colorado, is far from what she expected. McKenna struggles with her sudden new role as the guardian of two children. Shouldering burdens beyond her years, McKenna tries to be the parent Robert needs instead of the older sister he resents. But her “untimely inheritance” challenges her resolve at every turn, while also offering a second chance to restore her sense of trust—and perhaps even her heart. U.S. Marshal Wyatt Caradon is dedicated to bringing fugitives to justice, yet years of living on the trail have taken their toll, and he finds himself at a crossroads. He's brought countless men to justice, but he questions what lasting good he has accomplished. When his path intersects that of young Robert Ashford, Wyatt glimpses himself, years ago, in the boy's pride and arrogance. He also sees a boy without a firm hand in his life. His well-meant attempt to help Robert brings him face-to-face with the one situation he never wanted to encounter—and the one woman who holds the key to helping him find his future. As McKenna struggles to let go of her independence and Wyatt considers opening his heart again, they discover an inheritance beyond imagination—but it will come at a price. Praise for The Inheritance: “Alexander has an awe-inspiring way of creating characters that brand your heart and leave you permanently connected. This story is too good to be missed!”—Romantic Times “Alexander’s inspirational historical romance vividly details the rough mining environment of 1870s Colorado...in a fast-paced, often poignant, and always hopeful tale.”—Booklist Full-length, stand-alone historical romance set in 1877 2010 Christy Award finalist and 2010 RITA Award winner Includes discussion questions for book clubs

A Fishing Trip Nets a Murderer in Dead Man Ohio, a Murder Mystery from T. M. Simmons —The Middle of Ohio— Our intrepid crew of ghost hunters is at it again, this time in Ohio, where ghosts from the state's past roam the woods, and mythological beasts exist only in lore. Or do they? It's Alice's ex-husband, Jack, who spots a strange creature in Twila's little red car after he arrives in Ohio to spend some time fishing with Twila's husband, Jess, near their beautiful farmhouse deep in the woods of Ohio. Twila bravely tries to handle the situation alone, unaware the entity shadowing her is testing her psychic senses. At Jack's call, Alice and Granny pack what they need to help, along with Trucker and Miss Molly, and hie-tail it from Texas to Yankee land. Twila and Jess's farm, filled with historical burial mounds, and surrounded by Amish farmland, seems too peaceful to be dangerous. Perhaps the serenity lulls the local residents into believing they are safe, unable to see what truly lives among them. It takes the capture of a murderer and the exposure of a hidden society of clever creatures to sort this out. From the Publisher: Cozy mystery fans and readers who enjoy amateur sleuths, ghosts, and a supernatural twist will enjoy this fun series of mysteries with its cast of colorful characters.
