Gallery Books, 2019. Hardcover. From the New York Times bestselling author of the Beach House series comes a heartwarming and evocative novel about the bonds and new beginnings that are born from natural disasters and how, even during the worst of circumstances--or perhaps because of them--we discover what is most important in life. Late August is a beautiful time on the Southern coast--the peach trees are ripe, the ocean is warm, and the sweet tea is icy. A perfect time to enjoy the rocking chairs on the porch. But beneath the calm surface bubbles a threat: it's also peak hurricane season. When a hurricane threatens the coasts of Florida and South Carolina, an eclectic group of evacuees flees for the farm of their friends Grace and Charles Phillips in North Carolina: the Phillips's daughter Moira and her rescue dogs, famed equestrian Javier Angel de la Cruz, makeup artist Hannah McLain, horse breeder Gerda Klug and her daughter Elise, and island resident Cara Rutledge. They bring with them only the few treasured possessions they can fit in their vehicles. Strangers to all but the Phillips, they must ride out the storm together. During the course of one of the most challenging weeks of their lives, relationships are put to the test as the evacuees are forced to confront the unresolved issues they have with themselves and with each other. But as the storm passes, they realize that what really matters isn't what they brought with them to the mountains. Rather, it's what they'll take with them once they leave. With Mary Alice Monroe's "usual resplendent storytelling" (Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author), The Summer Guests is a poignant and compelling story of self-discovery, love, and redemption., Gallery Books, 2019, 0, London: Kaye & Ward, 1970. Used.WELL READ PAPERBACK EDITION.CREASES TO SPINE AND MARKS ON FRONT COVERAttorney Jordan Marshall is just on his way to the beach, passing through Green Hills, Texas, a small town he's barely noticed before. Arrested by an over-zealous cop, he's hauled before the judge who seems to rule over the town. Before Jordan knows what's happening, he's appointed to represent a young punk charged with assault. It seems like a simple case, so why does he encounter such hostility everywhere he goes as Wayne's lawyer? Then Jordan learns of the murder that happened shortly before Wayne beat up his best friend, the murder of Jenny Fecklewhite, the beautiful and brilliant teenager who was the pride of the town. The hostility comes from the fact that everyone in town thinks Wayne killed her, even though he hasn't been arrested for that crime. Then the next murder happens... Jordan also becomes involved with Laura Stephone, the lovely court reporter with the sad smile. She seems to be too good and too smart to have stayed stuck in this little town, but yet she remains. Laura is his guide to the town, then a more intimate guide. With a new introduction by the author. "In swiftly moving prose and with an affectionately rendered, credible case, Brandon delivers a solid string of riveting, detailed courtroom dramas-- and some moving bedroom scenes as well."
