Summer has started in idyllic Sag Harbor, and for Emma Mapson that
means greeting guests at the front desk of The American Hotel. But
when one of the town's most famous residents, artist Henry Wyatt,
dies suddenly, Emma learns he has mysteriously left his waterfront
home - a self-designed masterpiece filled with his work - to her
teenage daughter, Penny. Back in Manhattan, legendary art patron
Bea Winstead's grief at her lifelong friend and former business
partner Henry's passing turns to outrage at the news of his
shocking bequest. How did these unknown locals get their hands on
the estate? Bea, with her devoted assistant Kyle in tow, descends
on Sag Harbor determined to reclaim the house and preserve Henry's
legacy. While Emma fights to defend her daughter's inheritance, Bea
discovers that Henry left a treasure trove of sketches scattered
around town. With Penny's reluctant help, Bea pieces them together
to find a story hidden in plain sight: an illustration of their
shared history with an unexpected twist that will change all of
their lives. Drawn together in their battle for the house, Emma and
Bea are forced to confront the past while facing a future that
challenges everything they believe about love, fate, and family.

Lauren Adelman and her high school sweetheart, Rory Kincaid, are a
golden couple. They marry just out of college as Rory, a star
hockey player, earns a spot in the NHL. Their future could not look
brighter when Rory shocks everyone-Lauren most of all-by enlisting
in the U.S. Army. When Rory dies in combat, Lauren is left
devastated, alone, and under unbearable public scrutiny. Seeking
peace and solitude, Lauren retreats to her family's old beach house
on the Jersey Shore. But this summer, she's interrupted by a
stranger making a documentary about Rory. Matt Brio finally
persuades her to give him just an hour of her time. One hour with
Matt turns into a summer of revelations, surprises, and upheaval.
As the days grow shorter and her grief changes shape, Lauren begins
to understand the past-and to welcome the future.
Set against the turbulent and glamorous backdrop of Prohibition
and the rise of the jazz age, Jamie Brenner's "The Gin Lovers" was
first published as a six-part e-serial. Now this sensual and
romantic story of how one high society woman's passion and courage
lead her to love is available for the first time ever as a complete
book.
It's 1925, and the Victorian era with its confining morals is
all but dead. Unfortunately, for New York socialite Charlotte
Delacorte, the scandalous flapper revolution is little more than a
headline in the tabloids. Living with her rigid and controlling
husband William, her Fifth Avenue townhouse is a gilded cage. But
when William's rebellious younger sister, the beautiful and brash
Mae, comes to live with them after the death of their mother,
Charlotte finds entree to a world beyond her wildest dreams - and a
handsome and mysterious stranger whom she imagines is as confident
in the bedroom as he is behind the bar of his forbidden
speakeasy.
