Synopsis Don't Cry for Me by : Sharon Sala

Reunited with her ex, a military vet faces internal battles and physical danger in this romantic suspense tale by a New York Times–bestselling author. Mariah Conrad has come home. Badly wounded on active duty in Afghanistan and finally released stateside, she has no family to call on and nowhere to go—until Quinn Walker arrives at her bedside. Quinn . . . her brother-in-arms, ex-lover and now maybe her future. Quinn brings Mariah to his log cabin in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky to rest and recuperate both physically and emotionally. While she’s incredibly grateful, Mariah is also confused and frustrated. She’s always stood on her own two feet, but now even that can literally be torture. She’s having flashbacks and blackouts, hearing helicopter noises in the night. She wants to push Quinn away—and hold him closer than ever. But will she get the chance? Those helicopters are more than just post-traumatic stress; they’re real—and dangerous. Bad things are happening on the mountain. Suddenly there’s a battle to be fought on the home front, and no guarantee of survival.

Synopsis The Secrets of Winterhouse by : Ben Guterson

Bookish puzzles, phantom mysteries, and evil curses await as Elizabeth returns to Winterhouse in Book 2 of this magical series. Back at the Winterhouse hotel for another holiday season, Elizabeth and Freddy dig deeper into the mystery surrounding Riley S. Granger, a hotel guest who left behind odd artifacts—one being a magical book that the evil Gracella Winters once attempted to use to gain destructive power over the entire Falls lineage. The two friends follow a trail of clues, inadvertently attracting the attention of a suspicious new hotel guest: Elana Vesper. The clock is ticking as Elizabeth and Freddy struggle to figure out whether Elana is merely a pawn or a player in the plot to revive the spirit of Gracella. If that wasn’t enough, Elizabeth suspects she is coming into her own special powers—and she’s fearful it might lead her right into Gracella’s vicious web. Mystery, adventure, and a winning friendship combine in this much anticipated sequel. Christy Ottaviano Books

Synopsis The Boy and the Clock Book by : A. Lynn Bassett

Charlie's plans for a perfect vacation are dashed when his mother announces they'll be visiting her distant relatives instead. Traveling to England might be exciting, but there's nothing fun about a summer spent with quilt-crazy Auntie Phranzie and reclusive Uncle Ralph. Exploring his relatives' bizarre, clock-filled home, Charlie discovers a leather book hidden in the attic. Inside is a handwritten message warning the reader to proceed with the utmost caution. Charlie isn't very cautious, which explains why he chooses to sneak into Uncle Ralph's forbidden room, where a series of events transports him to the clock book's world. In that world, Wenzel Bennington's life is unraveling. The Hill, his once-peaceful home, is under attack from the malevolent Malek. Left unchecked, Malek threatens to destroy everything Wenzel loves. Charlie and Wenzel find themselves instrumental players in the war against Malek. Joined by a mysterious girl marked by magic and aided by the mystical Presence, they will bring peace to the Hill-or live just long enough to see Malek triumph. Reminiscent of a modern-day Chronicles of Narnia, The Boy and the Clock Book marks the beginning of Charlie's adventures in a world where destiny and magic intertwine with strength of character.
