Always remember / by Balogh, Mary,author.;
"Left unable to walk by a childhood illness, Lady Jennifer, sister of the Duke of Wilby, has grown up to make a happy place for herself in society. Outgoing and cheerful, she has many friends and enjoys the pleasures of high society--even if she cannot dance at balls or stroll in Hyde Park. She is blessed with a large, loving, and protective family. But she secretly dreams of marriage and children, and of walking--and dancing. When Ben Ellis comes across Lady Jennifer as she struggles to walk with the aid of primitive crutches, he instantly understands her yearning. He is a fixer. It is often said of him that he never saw a practical problem he did not have to solve. He wants to help her discover independence and motion-driving a carriage, swimming, even walking a different way. But he must be careful. He is the bastard son of the late Earl of Stratton. Though he was raised with the earl's family, he knows he does not really belong in the world of the ton. Jennifer is shocked--and intrigued--by Ben's ideas, and both families are alarmed by the growing friendship and perhaps more that they sense developing between the two. A duke's sister certainly cannot marry the bastard son of an earl. Except sometimes, love can find a way"--

Yours for the Season : A Novel. by Jalaluddin, Uzma.;
For an ambitious attorney and a rising-star chef, a cross-cultural fake romance takes an unexpected detour in a heartwarming and funny novel by the author of Much Ado About Nada and Ayesha at Last. When Sameera Malik and Tom Cooke meet at a ho-hum holiday party, neither is looking for romance. Sameera's working ridiculous hours at her law firm and healing from heartache while navigating a recently resolved family estrangement. Tom's hustling to turn his social media stardom into a real career while fending off his family's demands to give up his chef dreams and move back home. The two share a few laughs and a samosa-making lesson and go their separate ways. But when one of Tom's posts starts a viral rumor that they're a couple, he suggests they keep up the ruse for a few months. It's a good proposal, and a fauxmance will help Tom grow his popularity, and, in return, he can help Sameera land a wealthy client. The only problem? Their parents. When Sameera's very Muslim parents insist on meeting Tom's very not Muslim family over Christmas in rural Alaska, the stage is set for misunderstandings, holiday hijinks, and an epic culture clash. As the Maliks and Cookes exchange holiday traditions and endless opinions on their children's lives, Sameera and Tom realize they have a lot in common--including an attraction that's starting to feel very real.Library Bound Incorporated

Underwater : the greed-soaked tale of sexual abuse in USA swimming and around the globe / by Muchnick, Irvin,author.;
"While the celebrity victims of Dr. Larry Nassar and the USA Gymnastics sexual abuse scandals rightly got a lot of attention, the number of affected kids is far more numerous in swimming. Underwater tells the almost unbelievable story, in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, Latin America, and the Middle East, of coaches who preyed on children while hopping from program to program, state to state, and even country to country, in a pattern similar to the pedophile priests of the Catholic Church. Irvin Muchnick, an experienced investigative reporter of the dark side of our popular sports entertainments, gained access to thousands of pages of FBI files and other sources to expose scores of such scenarios, as well as the inaction of bureaucrats and even the most highly regarded politicians. The ranks of abusers include some of the most famous and celebrated coaches in swimming history. And there's no fixing the problem, the author says, so long as hundreds of thousands of young swimmers annually -- elite and casual athletes alike -- remain at the mercy of the Olympic system's money-hungry priorities."--

Gone but still here : a novel / by Dance, Jennifer,1949-author.;
"Mary explores long-buried memories of her interracial love story as her short-term memories fade. Struggling to cope with Alzheimer's disease, Mary moves into her daughter's home, along with her cat. Mary's daughter is full of good intentions but soon finds herself caught between her cognitively impaired mother and her belligerent teenage son. Sage, the family's golden retriever, offers them all comfort and unconditional love, but she has her own problems now having to deal with the cat. As dementia progresses, Mary's recent memories vanish, replaced with those from her past, especially of her young husband who died forty years earlier. Wanting to keep Keith's memory alive for her children, Mary attempts to write her memoir. Spanning Trinidad, England, and Canada, her tangled tales reveal the trauma of an interracial love story set in an era of intolerance and hatred, and of a love that refuses to die. But with her reading, writing and comprehension skills slipping away, it's a race against time."--Provided by publisher.
