Big Little Truths

Moriarty, Liane,


In this highly anticipated sequel, Liane Moriarty examines the complexities of modern women's lives, shining light on family dynamics and long-hidden truths with wit and compassion. The last time we saw the women of Big Little Lies -- Madeline, Celeste, Jane, Renata, and Bonnie -- their children were five years old. If someone wasn't invited to a birthday party, feelings were hurt. But ten years have passed and the kids are in high school, navigating all of the drama that accompanies teendom (goodbye playdates, hello drugs, sex, and alcohol). When the high school principal receives a threatening package in the mail, word quickly spreads throughout the community and parents are in an uproar. But Madeline, Celeste, Jane, Renata, and Bonnie have other things to worry about. Celeste's mother-in-law, Mary Louise, is behaving oddly -- is it old-age forgetfulness and bluntness or something more sinister? Madeline is facing perhaps the biggest challenge of her life, Jane is at a dangerous fork in her marriage, Bonnie has realized there's only so much solace in yoga. And Renata? Renata is living her best life -- revenge is sweet. When a stranger begins lurking around the school asking supposedly innocent questions, this tightly connected group of women must finally face the full repercussions of the big little truths they have and haven't shared with their kids. Because the stakes are now much higher than not being invited to an ice-skating party -- and the ice has never been thinner for any of them.

Christmas At The Little Paris Hotel

Raisin, Rebecca,


Turn a tumbledown Paris hotel into a perfect boutique, bookish retreat, and have it open for Christmas? What could possibly go wrong? When Anais receives a near-derelict Paris hotel in her divorce settlement, her first thought is to tidy it up and sell it immediately. All she wants is to move on and forget her disaster of a marriage ever happened. But selling it proves impossible, so she has only one option: to make it gorgeous and open by Christmas... when her funds will almost certainly run out. She's not counting on the grumpy American bar-owner next door, Noah, coming and interfering at every moment though. Nor is she expecting to find a mysterious room - which holds the key to a one-hundred-year-old secret - about a woman who chose love against the odds. One thing's for sure... as the fairy lights twinkle all over the city of lights and the first snowflakes start to fall... this will be a Christmas in Paris to remember.

The Christmas You Found Me

Morgenthaler, Sarah,


"Northern Idaho cattle rancher Sienna Naples isn't actually looking to hire a husband two weeks before Christmas, despite the ad her best friend puts in their small town's newspaper on the day Sienna's year-long, brutal divorce finalizes. Her plan is to hide out in the dangerously beautiful Frank Church Wilderness until the holiday season is over, riding fences and ignoring her wounded heart. Sienna's family has taken care of this land for generations and Sienna can't imagine any other life. But at Christmastime, with her parents gone and her marriage finally over, it's full of memories ... and incredibly lonely. Until a tall, handsome stranger and a little girl walk into her life and suddenly the holidays are alive again. It was just a joke, but when single father Guy Maple shows up to answer the ad, the handsome Montana construction worker isn't joking. Money is tight this Christmas, and Guy's four-year-old daughter Emma is dying of stage-five chronic kidney disease. She needs a kidney transplant, but if Guy can't prove that he can afford Emma's anti-rejection medications, his daughter isn't going to stay on the transplant list. Guy's willing to do anything, including marrying a stranger, to keep her safe. It's an impulsive marriage of convenience, and Sienna knows this isn't real, no matter how much she adores Emma or how well Guy fits in to the ranching life. But the more time she spends with her new family, the more she fears losing the fragile, feisty little girl and the kind, devoted, hard-working, incredibly attractive man who is her husband-but is it only in name?"--
