Someone to Hold by Mary Balogh
A reversal of fortune befalls a young woman in the latest Westcott novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Only a Kiss and Someone to Love.
Humphrey
Wescott, Earl of Riverdale, has died, leaving behind a fortune and a
scandalous secret that will forever alter the lives of his
family—sending one daughter on a journey of self-discovery...
With her parents’ marriage declared bigamous, Camille Westcott is now
illegitimate and without a title. Looking to eschew the trappings of her
old life, she leaves London to teach at the Bath orphanage where her
newly discovered half-sister lived. But even as she settles in, she must
sit for a portrait commissioned by her grandmother and endure an artist
who riles her every nerve.
An art teacher at the orphanage
that was once his home, Joel Cunningham has been hired to paint the
portrait of the haughty new teacher. But as Camille poses for Joel,
their mutual contempt soon turns to desire. And it is only the bond
between them that will allow them to weather the rough storm that lies
ahead... (From Amazon.com product listing.)

Olivia Lockhart
Cedar Cove, Washington
Dear Reader,
You don't know me yet, but in a few hours that's going to change. You see, I'm inviting you to my home and my town of Cedar Cove because I want you to meet my family, friends and neighbors. Come and hear their stories—maybe even their secrets!
I have to admit that my own secrets are pretty open. My marriage failed some years ago, and I have a rather…difficult relationship with my daughter, Justine. Then there's my mother, Charlotte, who has plenty of opinions and is always willing to share them.
Here's an example. I'm a family court judge and she likes to drop in on my courtroom. Recently I was hearing a divorce petition. In my mother's view, young Cecilia and Ian Randall hadn't tried hard enough to make their marriage work—and I actually agreed. So I rendered my judgment: Divorce Denied.
Well, you wouldn't believe the reaction! Thanks to an article by Jack Griffin, the editor of our local paper (and a man I wouldn't mind seeing more of ), everyone's talking.
Cedar Cove—people love it and sometimes they leave it, but they never forget it!
See you soon…

Dreamcatcher
Dreamcatcher by Stephen King (Contains Affiliate Link)
Once upon a time, in the haunted city of Derry (site of the classics "It" and "Insomnia)," four boys stood together and did a brave thing. Certainly a good thing, perhaps even a great thing. Something that changed them in ways they could never begin to understand.Twenty-five years later, the boys are now men with separate lives and separate troubles. But the ties endure. Each hunting season the foursome reunite in the woods of Maine. This year, a stranger stumbles into their camp, disoriented, mumbling something about lights in the sky. His incoherent ravings prove to be dis-turbingly prescient. Before long, these men will be plunged into a horrifying struggle with a creature from another world. Their only chance of survival is locked in their shared past -- and in the Dreamcatcher.Stephen King's first full-length novel since "Bag of Bones" is, more than anything, a story of how men remember, and how they find their courage. Not since "The Stand" has King crafted a story of such astonishing range -- and never before has he contended so frankly with the heart of darkness. (From Amazon.com product listing)
