Positively Penelope : A Novel
$16.99Read moreThe world could do with a little more kindness and positivity and random acts of singing, don’t you think?
Dear Reader, My name is Penelope, and while I may not be a real-life princess, I’ve been told I possess a certain fairy-tale heroine quality. I wield optimism as my weapon of choice, don amazing shoes and vintage hats whenever possible, and speak in musical references. All of which perfectly qualifies me to succeed in my new role as a marketing intern at the historic Darling House theater on the island of Skymar.
Only . . . it seems this internship position is going to be a LOT bigger than I thought. The Gray family, who owns the theater, has been stuck in a rut of darkness ever since the loss of their matriarchs. Now all that’s left is a dying theater, a reclusive grandfather, three siblings, and an adorable seven-year-old girl who desperately needs some pixie-dust magic.
So that’s what this story is about. My plans to save the theater! (Plans that, somehow, keep being stolen by a local competitor.) And an anonymous online theater troupe. And two single brothers who may be vying for this American girl’s heart . . . until they’re not (or maybe they just want me for my ideas too). And a dream job offer that will require me to make a truly heart-wrenching decision. I may not excel at finishing stories, but I promise to see this one through to its happily ever after.

Authentically Izzy : A Novel
$16.99Read moreIsabelle Edgewood is the quintessential introverted librarian, who possesses a much more imaginative and wittier internal world than her predictable real life suggests. Her romantic journey remains as quiet as her professional one, and she’s not complaining. After being used twice by men she thought she loved, she’s decided fictional heroes are the only ones she’s interested in pursuing.
When her cousin enrolls Izzy in an online matchmaking service, Izzy is thrust into an in-between space that allows her an opportunity to say all the things she’s kept safely tucked away in her head, while gaining a toehold in the possibility of her own happily-ever-after. As Mr. Right shows up on the screen, another love interest walks into her real world and Izzy is faced with a choice between trusting in someone she’s never met but who appreciates the “real Izzy” or falling back into her pattern of staying safe and close to home, without risking her heart. Is finding someone who truly “sees” her worth rewriting the story of her own future?
Join Izzy, her cousins, and a whole host of quirky characters in this epistolary romantic comedy about authenticity, hope, courage, and the beautiful bond of family.
