This true story begins as Grover and her partner flee both the real violence of the LA riots and the fictional tv violence she's been obliged to write. While in search of a new home and new way of life, they encounter only more evidence of a failed system. By chance, Grover and her partner happen in on the annual lakeside "August Celebration" of an unusual new micro-culture led by a man and woman who are cheerfully determined to save the world their own way. From initial skepticism and doubt to eventually sharing the passion and vision of the people she encounters, Grover takes us on a journey of hope. Her story also reveals practical, close-to-earth ways to help us revitalize ourselves, our society and our planet.

Stephanie Pierson wrestles, in a deeply superficial way, with major issues that face mothers today. You'll be captivated by the remarkable story of how one brave woman struggles with success, triumphs over prosperity, and faces the happiness of everyday family life with remarkable courage, grit, and humor.

A charming novel of two young people whose love for each other takes a surprising turn. Wheaton continues the story of Penny Winston, begun in Razzmatazz, and her brother Willie as they come to adulthood in the small New England town of Eastfield during the Depression. This is an unusual love story, one rich with the joy of life.

This is the story of a black firefighter and workingman trying to work the toughest turf of all: the straight and narrow. As his friends disappear around him - victims of the streets, of police dogs, of drugs, of an addiction to cheap thrills and guns - he struggles to establish his own business, facing a thousand midnights before he's home free, with a job that supports his young family. This search for balance in a dangerous world propels the quiet heroism of a beautifully evoked and very moving story.

A fateful encounter at an anti-gay-marriage fundraiser brings together two soon-to-be college seniors, Charlotte McLean and Maribeth Richards. Charlotte, the daughter of a prominent evangelical pastor in Maryland, and Maribeth, the daughter of a high ranking Republican in the Maryland Senate, are instantly smitten with each other, but their chance meeting comes to an end before they can ascertain if their feelings are mutual. After a year of casual Internet contact, Maribeth decides to surprise Charlotte by attending her graduation, and the spark is rekindled as both women move to Baltimore to start their new careers. Because of their parents' prominent status in the anti-gay-marriage lobby, Charlotte and Maribeth feel immense pressure to conceal their relationship. The introduction of a gay marriage bill in the Maryland General Assembly only makes matters worse. As the pressure mounts and the lies pile up, Charlotte and Maribeth question both their relationship and their resolve to keep it secret. As their lives unravel and tragedy engulfs them, can fate once again bring healing and redemption? With a sensitive and honest portrayal of lesbian romance as well as poignant insights into the Maryland cultural and political scene, Bridge to Nowhere tackles the all-too-familiar issue of anti-gay prejudice, in this new novel that is both heartwarming and tragic.
