    Abi thought she had a charmed life. She's got her dream job, family and friends who love her, and she just bought a great old house! Everything would be perfect, if not for the logging company that's just set up shop next door. And the guy she can't seem to stop shtupping. Who just happens to be their chief tree cutter. Er, logger. Lumberjack? Ilan took over his father's business three years ago and he's proud of the success he's earned. Getting the contract to clear the Howell acreage is just another in a string of achievements. He didn't mean for it to be such a sore subject for the people of the neighborhood. He especially didn't mean to find himself naked with Abi. At least not more than once. Definitely not more than twice. Too bad it seems to keep happening. Worse, they can't say two words to each other without wanting to throw things. But there's no way the attraction will last, nobody who gets that turned on can stay that way and get anything done, right?

    Tara Fox Hall's writing career began in the pages of a small print magazine, Catnip Blossoms!, that a friend, Harald Moore, put out to promote his catnip farm in Johnsonville, New York. One short nonfiction article followed another, detailing her adventures saving wildlife, her experiences living on an acreage, and more than a few humorous recountings detailing the antics of her wacky pets. Written to delight, fascinate, and move readers, her simple but enchanting stories of country life quickly found a following. Tara kept publishing stories for the next five years, even as the name of the magazine changed to Meanwhile and then to On the River when the catnip farm went out of business and Harald moved with his family to a new home near a river. These previously published stories are collected here for the first time with new added content in the hopes of bringing a little more hope and inspiration into everyday life. ungekürzt.

    Fear is a place. When struggling concert pianist Emil inherits a house from his late uncle, he thinks all of his problems are solved. Absconding to the mysterious Weatherby House in the suburbs of Portland where his famous uncle composed many classical masterpieces, Emil finds the place completely empty, save for one thing: his uncle's grand piano. But Weatherby House is not the ideal getaway it appears at first glance. It has a dark past and is shunned by the locals. As the days pass, strange things occur on the property, leaving Emil to wonder if he isn't losing his mind. Unplaceable footsteps resound in the upstairs; dark figures peer into the windows at night despite the empty acreage that surrounds the old house, and that blasted piano can't seem to keep quiet, loosing music at turns beautiful and terrifying even as no one sits before it. In time, Emil discovers that there's something else living in Weatherby House. And it refuses to let him leave. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Hempel.

    Jo McDougall brings a poet's sensibility to memoir. Recounting five generations of Delta rice farmers, through family archives and oral histories, she traces how the clan made their way into the fabric of America, beginning with her Belgian-immigrant grandfather, a pioneer rice farmer on the Arkansas Delta at the turn of the 20th century. As John Grisham has for a 1950s Arkansas cotton farm, McDougall illuminates an Arkansas rice farm in the 1930s and 1940s. The Garot family's acreage near DeWitt and the town itself provide the stage for McDougall's wry, compelling, and layered account of the day-to-day of rice growing on the farm that her father inherited. In that setting she discovers a rich "universe of words" in the Great Depression, comes of age during World War II, and finds her way alongside "that whole quirky, compelling cast of characters" that comprised her kin. In this conflicted, ironic, southern-but-universal account of betrayal, heartbreak, loss, and joy, "the vagaries and the grace" of the land join forces with the power of money as family bonds are both forged and dissolved. Deeply felt, unsentimental, and often humorous, Daddy's Money presents McDougall's life and the lives of her relatives in the way that all our lives are eventually framed - as stories. "When all else is lost," the author maintains, "the stories remain." The book is published by The University of Arkansas Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cira Larkin.
