A brilliant, hilarious, and touching story from the author of Conversations with the Fat Girl, Liza Palmer’s More Like Her is smart, funny, though-provoking women’s fiction in the vein of Emily Giffin, Marian Keyes, Meg Cabot, and Jane Green. More Like Her is the story of a seemingly perfect woman who’s the envy of her friends, neighbors, and co-workers…until the life of the object of their jealousy spectacularly, unexpectedly, and disastrously explodes. A novel of secrets, disappointments, false impressions—and what really goes on behind those suburban picket fences—More Like Her is ultimately about facing reality and appreciating everything that life has to offer.

WHAT IF YOU NEVER CHASED BEAUTY AGAIN? Sandra Coates was once longing to be someone different, more focused on comparing or competing with others rather than fully accepting herself. But when God stepped in and asked if she wanted to see the real Sandra, everything shifted. What had once seemed impossible—fulfilling her desires for confidence, a positive body image, and an end to her cravings—became her reality. By sharing her candid personal story about how she discovered her true identity, she invites others to break free of who they think they have to be, reject the worldly pressures to fit in or be perfect, open themselves to receive breathtaking love and acceptance from their Creator, and walk confidently in their God-given beauty, identity, and purpose. This in-depth and transparent examination of beauty is written to help women and girls uncover bold truths about themselves and the unique beauty already within them. Included in the book are reflection/discussion questions and exercises designed for both an individual reader or a small group. “This book has the ability to change lives! It hits all the major insecurities every girl faces and fights it with Biblical truth. It shows us how to put on and use the armor of God to fight off the enemy and come out victorious.” -Gracie Goodwin, Liberty University student/Student leader “Simple and powerful, this book has the potential to transform as it shares the message of identity found in God’s design.” - Pete Hardesty, co-author of Amazon #1 bestsellers Adulting 101 Book 1 and Book 2 “Sandra shares her relatable journey with honesty and the hope of encouraging others who have struggled with body image, eating disorders and anxiety.” -Becky VanValin LCSW, Therapist and Owner at Eden Counseling

Moving into that house isn’t quite the celebration it was supposed to be. It would have been a lot happier and exciting if Bradley hadn’t caught his wife, Sydney, with another man, just weeks before move-in day. Now, he’s moving in alone, and lawyers have already started pressing him about alimony and child custody. Sydney wants everything, and her expensive lawyers are determined to make sure she gets it. And Bradley thinks that his situation is hopeless, until he finds an old diary in that house, left behind by some previous owner. It’s a diary written by someone named Raymond, who went through the same exact thing. In fact, Raymond’s story is so identical to Bradley’s, it’s almost eerie. At times, it’s almost like Bradley is reading about his own life. And it gets even weirder when he gets to the part of the journal where Raymond discovers secret rooms in the house, filled with women’s clothing, wigs, and makeup.

Ruth Kabbah is okay with being an outcast. Between her autism, her comic book nerdery, and the whiff of scandal her small town can’t forget, Ruth will always be Ravenswood’s black sheep. Since she prefers silence and solitude to gossip and pub crawls, that suits her just fine—until Evan Miller comes to town. Ex-military man Evan is gorgeous, confident… and he’s Ruth’s new neighbour. Unlike everyone else, he doesn’t seem to mind her crotchety ways or her cooking disasters. In fact, if Ruth didn’t know any better, she might think Evan likes her. But Ruth’s been burned before, and some lessons are hard to forget. She can’t let her guard down—no matter how many home-cooked meals Evan brings over. Because affection is temporary, trust is made to be broken, and the heat of desire is a dangerous thing to play with. So why does this man feel so safe?

Beautiful and powerful, Strong Like Her presents the awe-inspiring account of women’s athleticism throughout history. Journalist Haley Shapley takes us through the delightful untold history of female strength to understand how we can better encourage—and celebrate—the physical power of women. Part group biography, part cultural history, Strong Like Her delves into the fascinating stories of our muscular foremothers. From the first female Olympian (who entered the chariot race through a loophole) to the circus stars who could lift their husbands above their heads and make it look like “a little light housework with a feather duster,” these brave and brawny women paved the way for the generations to follow. Filled with Sophy Holland’s beautiful por­traits of some of today’s most awe-inspiring ath­letes, including Peloton instructor Robin Arzón, bodybuilder Dana Linn Bailey, actress/dancer Patina Miller, and many others, Strong Like Her celebrates strength in all its forms. Illuminating the lives and accomplish­ments of storied female sports stars—whose con­tributions to society go far beyond their entries in record books—Shapley challenges us to rethink everything we thought we knew about the power of women.
