Carnegie's maid : a novel / by Benedict, Marie,author.;
Clara Kelley is not who they think she is. She's not the experienced Irish maid who was hired to work in one of Pittsburgh's grandest households. She's a poor farmer's daughter with nowhere to go and nothing in her pockets. But the other woman with the same name has vanished, and pretending to be her just might get Clara some money to send back home. If she can keep up the ruse, that is. Serving as a lady's maid in the household of Andrew Carnegie requires skills she doesn't have, answering to an icy mistress who rules her sons and her domain with an iron fist. What Clara does have is a resolve as strong as the steel Pittsburgh is becoming famous for, coupled with an uncanny understanding of business, and Andrew begins to rely on her. But Clara can't let her guard down, not even when Andrew becomes something more than an employer. Revealing her past might ruin her future -- and her family's.--Provided by Publisher.

Moon road / by Leipciger, Sarah,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Kathleen and Yannick have not spoken for nineteen years, not since what happened with their daughter. Now, there's unexpected news from the other side of the country, and the call for a road trip they can only make together. As they rattle over two thousand miles in a pick-up, through forests, over mountains and into service stations, an alluring history reveals itself - of fierce love, complicated ex-wives and headstrong children, and of a unique bond that never really went away. As they drive, argue, weep and reminisce, an unexpected future for this once estranged couple begins to emerge. Moon road captures the ups and downs of seeing children grow up; of recovering from long buried pain, and rediscovering those closest to us when we think we know all there is to know; of learning to live and love in a completely new way, deeper and more joyous than ever.

Among these families are the Saroops--Hans, Shweta, and their son, Krishna, all three born of the barracks. Theirs are hard lives of backbreaking work, grinding poverty, devotion to faith, and a battle against nature and a social structure designed to keep them where they are. But when Dalton goes missing and Marlee's safety is compromised, farmhand Hans is lured by the promise of a handsome stipend to move to the farm as a watchman. As the mystery of Dalton's disappearance unfolds, the lives of the wealthy couple and those who live in the barracks below become insidiously entwined, their community changed forever and in shocking ways."--

A twisted love story / by Downing, Samantha,author.;
"From the bestselling author of My Lovely Wife comes a reckless, delicious thriller about a young couple that gives a whole new meaning to the dangers of modern dating. Ivy and Wes know they are meant to be. There's no other way to describe the feelings they have for each other except to blame it on fate and being soul mates. What starts with a first date, then a first kiss, turns into an intensely passionate love affair that neither of them will ever be able to walk away from-no matter how hard they try and, believe me, they've tried. But they're back together again and swear this time will be different. No more games, no more drama, and certainly no more crimes. Orange jumpsuits aren't a good look for either of them. They know their friends, family, and the police aren't rooting for their happily-ever-after. But they'll prove them all wrong. If you're meant to be, nothing will stand in your way"--
