- The love shack / by Foster, Lori,1958-author.;
"When Berkley Carr opened The Love Shack Animal Haven, she thought she'd finally put her past behind her. But sometimes she feels the sting of the scandal from her youth, especially when she keeps crossing paths with her handsome neighbor. So, she keeps her head down and pours all her love into caring for animals. Lawson Salder moved to Cemetery, Indiana, to escape from the grinding poverty of his childhood. He barely knew Berkley from their old neighborhood, but every time he sees her, the shame and pain come crashing back. He knows she's got major baggage of her own. They're better off just avoiding each other. But that's downright impossible in a town full of matchmaking busybodies. Then there's the hard-to-ignore attraction they feel every time they see each other. When the universe is conspiring to bring them together, will Berkley and Lawson let past hurts go and embrace the love they deserve?"--Publisher.- Subjects: Chick lit.; Novels.; Animal shelters; Man-woman relationships; Neighbors; Scandals; Small cities;

- Leaving Wisdom / by Butala, Sharon,1940-author.;
"Leaving Wisdom begins with the wrong kind of bang when retiring social worker Judith falls on the way to her retirement party. Her ears still ringing and her strength compromised by a shaky recovery, Judith moves back to the town of Wisdom, Saskatchewan, near the farm where she grew up. There she confronts many unanswered questions: Why was her father, a World War Two veteran, so troubled? What are her brother and sister hiding from her? And more immediately, is a serious crime unfolding in the house next door? Small town bigotry and shady goings-on make Judith's search for answers even more bewildering. As she attempts to untangle the mysteries that ensare her at every turn, more complicated and wider ranging questions arise as she uncovers the truth about her damaged father. This thought-provoking and very readable tale depicts the suffering that comes from family secrets, and one woman's late-life awakening to the complex shadows cast by World War Two and the Holocaust."--Back cover.- Subjects: Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Families; Family secrets; Homecoming; Mothers and daughters; Small cities;

But the more Louise learns about Trine--a devoted wife and the mother of two young children--and her state of mind in the days before she left Mikkel, the more Louise begins to wonder whether Trine really meant to leave him. Or whether something much darker may have taken place. As the local police begin to suspect that Mikkel may have had a hand in Trine's disappearance, Louise struggles to clear his name but is forced to confront some hard truths: Small towns always hide secrets. The past always comes back to haunt you. And lies are never harmless.- Subjects: Thrillers (Fiction); Novels.; Rick, Louise; Detectives; Missing persons; Policewomen; Secrecy; Small cities;

- The Paris hours / by George, Alex,1970-author.;
"One day in the City of Lights. One night in search of lost time. Paris between the wars teems with artists, writers, and musicians, a glittering crucible of genius. But amidst the dazzling creativity of the city's most famous citizens, four regular people are each searching for something they've lost. Camille was the maid of Marcel Proust, and she has a secret: when she was asked to burn her employer's notebooks, she saved one for herself. Now she is desperate to find it before her betrayal is revealed. Souren, an Armenian refugee, performs puppet shows for children that are nothing like the fairy tales they expect. Lovesick artist Guillaume is down on his luck and running from a debt he cannot repay-but when Gertrude Stein walks into his studio, he wonders if this is the day everything could change. And Jean-Paul is a journalist who tells other people's stories, because his own is too painful to tell. When the quartet's paths finally cross in an unforgettable climax, each discovers if they will find what they are looking for. Told over the course of a single day in 1927, The Paris Hours takes four ordinary people whose stories, told together, are as extraordinary as the glorious city they inhabit"--- Subjects: Historical fiction.; Artists; City dwellers; Journalists; Puppeteers; Refugees; Women household employees;
