Thank You for Remembering (2026)
Emily Harding
"Thank You for Remembering is a charming, tender scavenger-hunt for true love, as delicious and layered as a North End cannoli. I devoured it in one sitting!"

June Baby (2026)
(Thousand Voices)
Shannon Garvey
"Amid white sand dunes and star-kissed nights, this tender debut aches with longing as it explores how the idea of love can sometimes outlast love itself. . . . A layered, hopeful meditation on grief, second chances, and the home found within each of us."

The Last Verse (2024)
Caroline Frost
"Caroline Frost reveals the sharp edge of a country star's rhinestones in this compulsively readable story about a singular talent caught between dreams for her future and the secrets of her past. Haunting and lyrical, The Last Verse will have you turning pages and turning phrases over in your mind long after Twyla has sung her last note."
