Graceland (2023)
Nancy Crochiere
"A fun, warm-hearted story with fresh and original passengers, Graceland is a new spin on the family road trip, complete with a love-story-mystery at its center. I loved it!"
What You Never Knew (2021)
Jessica Hamilton
"Pack Jessica Hamilton's new novel with you on a trip to the cottage! A delicious summer read, the book is a visually provocative, intimately drawn page-turner that offers intertwined family relationships that continue even after death. Be prepared to second-guess every wind-blown door slam after this terrific debut!"
Hurry Home (2020)
Roz Nay
"I zipped through this page-turner in record time...Good luck to you if you need to get anything done while reading this exciting book!"
