"Lisa Wingate writes with depth and warmth, joy and wit."--Debbie Macomber Heather Hampton returns to Moses Lake, Texas, to help facilitate the sale of a family farm as part of a planned industrial plant that will provide the area with much-needed jobs.

Synopsis Blue Bay Palace by : Nathacha Appanah-Mouriquand

Exposing the extremes of life in a developing country, this novel of doomed love shows how poverty, class divisions, and ramshackle housing become even harder to bear when luxurious resorts and rich tourists arrive on the scene. Growing up on the island of Mauritius, in the Indian Ocean, lonely young Maya hopes that someday she might escape her poverty and find happiness in the desirable housing developments near the new hotels. When she falls in love with a man from a well-to-do family, she believes that her dream is within reach, but her hopes are shattered when her lover is too weak to defy his family and agrees to an arranged marriage to a woman from his own caste.

Synopsis Blue Bay by : Maria del Mar

Storms had always been in their lives. They had learned to not be afraid of them, enjoy them, even participate in them. And just recently they had learned to travel in them. Time travel that is. Not that it was a bad thing, the Aguilar-Banks were tough. Both generations. And it was this toughness that helped them through meeting the Gaitanos and the crew of La Gitana. In Encatada. In The Golden Age of Privacy. And now these blessed cursed storms bridged the pirates' world to Blue Bay?

Synopsis Demolished by : Cathryn Fox

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Cathryn Fox comes the first in the hot new Blue Bay Crew series that follows the sexy, blue collar Owens men who take over their family’s construction business in the small town of Blue Bay, CT. Summer Wheeler is on the run. Hiding from the men who killed her father, Summer is on her way to her childhood cottage in Blue Bay when she runs into Sean Owens, the forbidden bad boy from her past. After giving him a fake name, she gives in to one steamy night with him, never expecting to see him again. Sean isn’t sure why Summer is pretending to be someone she’s not, but he’ll play her game if that means he can indulge in one of his oldest fantasies – a night with Summer. He’s shocked to see her when he returns to Blue Bay, and even more surprised when Summer offers him a job renovating her old family cottage. Hot workdays turn into hotter nights, but when Summer’s secret catches up with her, she’ll have to decide if she can trust Sean with her heart—and her life. Demolished nails the perfect combination of emotion, scorching intensity, and a touch of suspense that will draw readers to this fantastic new series!

Synopsis Blue Mind by : Wallace J. Nichols

A landmark book by marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols on the remarkable effects of water on our health and well-being. Why are we drawn to the ocean each summer? Why does being near water set our minds and bodies at ease? In Blue Mind, Wallace J. Nichols revolutionizes how we think about these questions, revealing the remarkable truth about the benefits of being in, on, under, or simply near water. Combining cutting-edge neuroscience with compelling personal stories from top athletes, leading scientists, military veterans, and gifted artists, he shows how proximity to water can improve performance, increase calm, diminish anxiety, and increase professional success. Blue Mind not only illustrates the crucial importance of our connection to water; it provides a paradigm shifting "blueprint" for a better life on this Blue Marble we call home.

Synopsis Grenada by : Paul Crask

Written by Caribbean-based writer, publisher and photographer Paul Crask, this new, thoroughly updated fourth edition of Bradt’s Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique remains the only standalone guide to this alluring Caribbean-island destination. With insider knowledge gleaned from 15-plus years’ exploration, Bradt’s guidebook is rich in detail, local colour and practical information. Detailed listings covering accommodation (from homestays to top-range boutique hotels), dining and activities (including off-the-beaten-path experiences) are complemented by the author’s personal take on making the most of your stay. Grenada is an English-speaking tri-island nation famed for its nutmeg and cocoa, sailing regattas attracting international crowds, jaw-dropping beaches, pastoral villages, mountain trails, fabulous scuba diving including an underwater sculpture gallery, and strong cultural traditions including carnival parades. The main island, Grenada, has a tall spine of forested mountain ridges surrounded by rivers, waterfalls and farmlands, and the scenic coastline is replete with secluded bays and anchorages. To the north lie the tranquil islands of Carriacou and Petite Martinique, which harbour deserted beaches and coral reefs, boast traditions of Big Drum Dance and boat building, and offer a warm, friendly welcome. This new edition incorporates the many developments on the islands over recent years. These include an increasingly impressive diversity of accommodation options resulting from ongoing investment, including a new resort on Grenada’s Grand Anse Beach, which complement the more traditional feel maintained in the north of the island and its smaller neighbours. Also featured is Grenada’s renewed focus on hiking trails, an addition to Grenada’s already fascinating chocolate industry. Visiting this year-round destination is increasingly easy thanks to ever-more frequent, direct flights from North America and Europe. With ample great accommodation and dining options, Grenada perfectly blends traditional island life with modern Caribbean living. Whether you are into yachting, scuba diving on wrecks and reefs, kayaking through mangrove forests, hiking mountain trails, ‘jumping-up’ at carnival, sampling vintage rums at historic distilleries, exploring historic estates, or relaxing poolside at luxurious beachside resorts, Bradt’s Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique is ideal for travellers of all kinds.

Synopsis Island of the Blue Dolphins by : Scott O'Dell

Far off the coast of California looms a harsh rock known as the island of San Nicholas. Dolphins flash in the blue waters around it, sea otter play in the vast kep beds, and sea elephants loll on the stony beaches. Here, in the early 1800s, according to history, an Indian girl spent eighteen years alone, and this beautifully written novel is her story. It is a romantic adventure filled with drama and heartache, for not only was mere subsistence on so desolate a spot a near miracle, but Karana had to contend with the ferocious pack of wild dogs that had killed her younger brother, constantly guard against the Aleutian sea otter hunters, and maintain a precarious food supply. More than this, it is an adventure of the spirit that will haunt the reader long after the book has been put down. Karana's quiet courage, her Indian self-reliance and acceptance of fate, transform what to many would have been a devastating ordeal into an uplifting experience. From loneliness and terror come strength and serenity in this Newbery Medal-winning classic.
