I think I am more excited about the last day of school then baby bassets are. For some reason I have it in my head that we will be having this fantastic dreamy summer vacation filled with trips to the beach, swimming and warm nights playing with glow sticks. Magically the baby bassets will stop bickering with each other and they will actually clean their rooms when told. I am not sure where these delusions came from or why I believe in them so strongly, but I am going to ride this wave for as long as possible.

Glenda Lawson believes her husband was the only U.S. serviceman shot and killed on American soil during World War II. But in 1945, investigators ruled that Billy Lawson died in a “mugging turned ugly.”
Sean O’Brien is learning the ropes of commercial fishing when he gets his anchor caught on something underwater. He discovers a German U-boat partially buried in sand, and inside is a frightening cargo. The media pick up the story, and a 35-year-old woman who has a haunting tale, visits O’Brien. Her grandfather, Billy Lawson, was fishing one night on a Florida beach when he saw something very disturbing.
THE BLACK BULLET is a thriller that combines an unsolved murder from 1945 to a modern-day discovery connected to America’s entry into nuclear weapons, the Manhattan Project.
The last thing Sean O’Brien wants is to investigate a sixty-seven-year-old murder. But Billy Lawson’s granddaughter and his cancer-stricken widow are desperate for closure. For O’Brien to bring it to them he has to pry the lid off a secret buried with the Manhattan Project. It’s information that got Billy Lawson killed, and O’Brien soon learns the old murder and his new discovery at the bottom of the sea are inextricably knotted. O’Brien is thrust into a world where nothing is as it appears, and everything is riding on a secret Billy Lawson took to his grave.

Woman with a Parasol
by Libby Malin
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Women’s Fiction
FREE for a limited time
For many years I’ve had a beef with Leo Tolstoy. In Anna Karenina, he’d written: “Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.”
Not so, Leo. Unhappy families are the ones with the depressing sameness… Happy families, or at least ones that manage to stay together and make a go of things, find a thousand different accommodations for each other’s imperfections, a thousand different sacrifices to make things work.
Why hadn’t I been able to make those sacrifices for my own marriage?
A story that explores the depths of maternal love…
When Toni (Antoinette) cons her reluctant thirty-two-year-old daughter, Belle Norton, into accompanying her on a trip to France, mother and daughter spar about everything from how Belle dresses to her favorite painter, Monet. As they fight and make up over and over again, Belle comes to realize Toni has lured her on this journey to reveal an old secret that threatens to shake her world. To add to her stress, Belle deals with her own motherhood issues as she stays in touch with teen daughter Alyson, who is unhappy over Belle’s plans to divorce Alyson’s dad, Max. Mother and daughter, daughter and mother make their way through the gardens of their own love stories, encountering thorns that prick and beauty that enriches beyond measure.
Award-winning author Libby Malin has penned a funny, sweet story that holds at its core an age-old mystery: What is the depth of a mother’s love?
