Sylvan Collection Return to small-town Sylvan in Jan Irving's
bestselling series—reimagined and re-edited with an all-new bonus
novella. The small Western town of Sylvan is a place for new
beginnings for those who won't settle for anything less than true
love. These sweet tales of slow-simmering romance and the
old-fashioned values of commitment and pulling together when times
get tough prove that sometimes the best matches are also the most
unexpected. With the help of a storm, a washed-up Olympic swimmer
and a carpenter cracking under the strain of caring for his
Alzheimer's-affected father learn that opposites sometimes really
do attract. A likable cowboy called Happy Nate is determined
to help a mute boy speak again—and to help his father move beyond
the repression of the Mennonite community to find the love he
deserves. When a hard-partying cowboy is suddenly saddled with a
surprise baby, he's at his wit's end. Luckily the local doctor is
available to help, and if the two men can find the courage to
accept themselves and step into a new life, they might just make a
real family. They'll need to lend each other strength when an
unspeakable tragedy strikes—and when it's time to pick up the
pieces.
A Special Project by Dreamspinner Press & ManLoveRomance Press.
Edited by Kris Jacen. How much impact can someone have on your life
if you've never met them face to face? In this electronic age of
E-mails, electronic publishing, and social networks, quite a lot.
Through his emails, stories and blog, author Patric Michael has
touched numerous hearts, minds and lives from the start of his
career and further as he now takes us along on his journey to
battle cancer. Along the way, Patric shows us a side of life that
not many truly see-- how we are all a part of something larger than
just ourselves, and how we are each touched by others for the
betterment of all. Now, those that have been touched by Patric and
his words have joined together to give something back, to him and
to us all through something he values highly – words. In this
compilation, gay short stories, poems, and anecdotes combined with
excerpts from Patric's blog and a few entertaining, educational
group posts reveal, and celebrate, the man who has touched so many
hearts and minds. This collection, sometimes erotic, sometimes
irreverent, and always poignant, is a gift from all our hearts to
celebrate Patric and give strength (and a little levity) to others.
The price reflects this; no one is receiving royalties or payment
from the sales. Use it to celebrate life, celebrate words, and
possibly inspire someone who needs it.
