What's New Through the Heart by Kate Morgenroth From the bestselling author of They Did It with Love, a chance meeting ignites romance and results in murder. Nora and Timothy have lives that are worlds apart. Nora lives in a small Kansas town, living paycheck to paycheck, working in a coffee shop. Timothy lives in Manhattan, responsible to no one and nothing except managing his family's millions. When these two meet, it seems like the beginning of a fairy tale. Except Nora is not your typical damsel in distress, Timothy does not quite fit the role of a gallant prince, and fairy tales don't include a dead body. New Arrivals features recently added fiction, nonfiction, movies, music and more! |

Sundays at Tiffany's by James Patterson Sundays at Tiffany’s was awesome! I couldn’t put it down and read it in about four hours. The book was a sweet childhood reflection that tied together nicely in Jane’s adulthood. Best of all this book wasn’t as sad as “Suzanne’s diary to Nicholas.” --Kristi More Reader Recommendations |
