Mapping the Forest (Rocky Mountain Boys)
by Brandon WittHappily ever after has no map, but sometimes fate sends a guiding light. Gabe Rice, a seasonal ranger at the Rocky Mountain National Park, can't seem to get his life on the right trail. He loves the rugged beauty of the land, and there is no place he would rather live than the mountain community of Estes Park. But after six years, Gabe is beginning to wonder if he'll ever get a full-time position or find love. When Gabe sees Luis--and hears his gorgeous singing--he's compelled to meet him. Luis Martinez, the new owner of a hotel and steak ride business in Estes, left California and a career as a therapist for a fresh start in Colorado. But even the beauty of the mountains can't help him forget the past or move forward. Unprepared for his strong attraction to Gabe, Luis is ready to run and hide from emotions he never thought he'd have again. Suddenly the path ahead opens to a future that looks brighter for both of them, if they can find the courage to walk forward--together.

Mara is a proud and beautiful slave girl who yearns for freedom in ancient Egypt, under the rule of Queen Hatshepsut. Mara is not like other slaves; she can read and write, as well as speak the language of Babylonian. So, to barter for her freedom, she finds herself playing the dangerous role of double spy for two arch enemies—each of whom supports a contender for the throne of Egypt. Against her will, Mara finds herself falling in love with one of her masters, the noble Sheftu, and she starts to believe in his plans of restoring Thutmose III to the throne. But just when Mara is ready to offer Sheftu her help and her heart, her duplicity is discovered, and a battle ensues in which both Mara’s life and the fate of Egypt are at stake. “Dangerous espionage, an unusual love story, and richly drawn background make this a book to capture quick and lasting interest.”—Horn Book “Thoroughly engrossing.”—Kirkus Reviews

Marble Heart
by Gretta MulrooneyA riveting story that illuminates the lives of men and women at the heart of the troubles in Belfast Ireland starts out as a simple story of the friendship between Joan, a hard-working caregiver and her newest client, Nina, an upper class British woman separated from her devoted husband, Martin, who can't understand why his wife feels unworthy to be loved. Joan who has mourned the loss of her brother, Eddie, who was like a father to her and disappeared many years ago, thinks she has found happiness and a partner at last in Rich who is soon to be released from prison. Though she is rapidly becoming weaker because of a terminal illness, Nina teaches Joan about the finer points of decorating, raising plants, cooking and other sophisticated elements of domestic life. In turn, Joan gives Nina extra kind and careful care. When she is alone, Nina is preoccupied writing a series of letters to a former friend now living in Africa about their days together as radicals fighting for Irish Freedom, living with the leader of a small communist group and operating totally under his influence. The sincere and insincere motives of activists is revealed along with their romantic entanglements. Most startling is the planning, and execution of violence and its short and long term aftermath. As Nina nears death the characters come together in surprising ways, and whatever justice is possible is accomplished.
