It's 1984 in the west of Ireland, and two sisters have unwittingly betrayed each other. My Heart Went Walking follows Una, who gives up everything to protect the people she loves, and her sister Ellie, who is left behind to pick up the pieces. With the prose of Sue Monk Kidd mixed with the dialogue of Maeve Binchy, this is a captivating, emotional, and uplifting debut novel set against the sweeping landscape of rural Ireland and Dublin City in the 1980s. Una runs away from her home and family in Donegal to start over in the “big smoke” of Dublin City, leaving a bereft family looking for answers. A year later, wondering if it might be safe to go back, she comes face-to-face with the heartbreaking reality that if she does so, she'll ruin her sister Ellie's newfound happiness. Una stays away and processes her pain alone while building a new life for herself with help from an unexpected source … until tragedy strikes and she must go home, where the secrets she has fought so hard to keep could destroy all their lives. My Heart Went Walking is a story of heartbreak and difficult choices, of tragedy and romance, of giving up everything to save your loved ones and trying to figure out your new path in life. With its evocative and witty prose, Sally Hanan will take you back to the '80s and pull you in to the Irish approach to life — that of grit and laughter — and leave you with an overriding reminder of the possibility of hope and restoration in all things.

Now with Shane deployed for seven months, Kate is on her own and struggling with being a single parent.

A dystopian thriller follows a boy and girl on the run from a town where all thoughts can be heard – and the passage to manhood embodies a horrible secret. Todd Hewitt is the only boy in a town of men. Ever since the settlers were infected with the Noise germ, Todd can hear everything the men think, and they hear everything he thinks. Todd is just a month away from becoming a man, but in the midst of the cacophony, he knows that the town is hiding something from him -- something so awful Todd is forced to flee with only his dog, whose simple, loyal voice he hears too. With hostile men from the town in pursuit, the two stumble upon a strange and eerily silent creature: a girl. Who is she? Why wasn't she killed by the germ like all the females on New World? Propelled by Todd's gritty narration, readers are in for a white-knuckle journey in which a boy on the cusp of manhood must unlearn everything he knows in order to figure out who he truly is.

There's no doubt that every mother would like to think that she has been the perfect mother, providing tender love and care and going to dance recitals, brownie meetings, and endless cheering events. But how should a mother feel when she must face life with a daughter who is a defiant, drug abusing, chronic teenage runaway? Run Away with My Heart shares the emotional journey that author Suzette Carluccio took to get her daughter the help she needed in order to turn her life around. This memoir presents the perspective of a mother whose daughter, Brie, has been a chronic runaway for more than three years. Carluccio only learned how deadly Brie's drug and alcohol abuse really was when Brie was picked up by the police and taken to a psychiatric ward. From there, through nature's healing power, Carluccio learned to let go of the strong bond she has with her daughter. After spending forty-nine days in the wilderness and ten months in a therapeutic boarding school, Brie finally began to take hold of her life and stopped running away from her inner demons. Run Away with My Heart is a story of rebuilding and renewal, demonstrating what happened when trust found its way back into Brie's family.

From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Sweet Thing and Nowhere But Here comes a love story about a Craigslist “missed connection” post that gives two people a second chance at love fifteen years after they were separated in New York City. To the Green-eyed Lovebird: We met fifteen years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding… I didn’t see you again until a month ago. It was a Wednesday. You were rocking back on your heels, balancing on that thick yellow line that runs along the subway platform, waiting for the F train. I didn’t know it was you until it was too late, and then you were gone. Again. You said my name; I saw it on your lips. I tried to will the train to stop, just so I could say hello. After seeing you, all of the youthful feelings and memories came flooding back to me, and now I’ve spent the better part of a month wondering what your life is like. I might be totally out of my mind, but would you like to get a drink with me and catch up on the last decade and a half? M

Dawn Tarnauer’s life isn’t exactly a success story. Already twice divorced, the young Californian is too busy job-hopping to start a career, her current boyfriend insists on living “off the grid,” her Life Coach sister perpetually interferes with incomprehensible affirmations, her eccentric mother is busy promoting the culmination of her life’s work: The Every Holiday Tree, and her father is ending his brief third marriage while scheduling two dates for the same night. Dawn’s only source of security and comfort, it seems, is Chuck, a pit-bull mix from the pound. So, when her boyfriend announces that he’s leaving her for another woman, a despairing Dawn turns to Chuck for solace. “I should have said something sooner,” Chuck confides, as he tries to console her. “Couldn’t you smell her on his pants?” Dawn is stunned. It’s one thing to talk to your pets, but what do you do when they start talking back? It’s not just Chuck, either; she can hear all dogs–and man’s best friend has a lot to say. The ever-enthusiastic Chuck offers his tried-and-true advice on the merits of knocking over garbage and strewing it everywhere, auxiliary competitive peeing etiquette, and the curative powers of tossing a ball. Doubtful of her own sanity, Dawn considers that, in the ways of life and love, it might be better to trust Chuck’s doggie instincts instead of her own. Filled with sharp wit, biting humor, and canine conversation that would make Doctor Dolittle’s jaw drop, Merrill Markoe’s engaging, cleverly written novel is about the confusing search for love and the divine acts of dog.
