    An atmospheric, gritty, and compelling novel of star-crossed lovers, set in the circus world circa 1932, by the bestselling author of Riding Lessons.

    When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, drifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town. A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that he meets Marlena, the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, who is married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. He also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems untrainable until he discovers a way to reach her.

    Beautifully written, Water for Elephants is illuminated by a wonderful sense of time and place. It tells a story of a love between two people that overcomes incredible odds in a world in which even love is a luxury that few can afford.

    As Japanese bombs fall on Singapore in 1941, a young woman’s desperate escape will echo across generations in this epic, heart-wrenching family story of love, sacrifice, and second chances.

    Singapore, 1941:
    Until the first explosions light up the night sky, the war feels distant for Issey and her friends, drinking and dancing at Raffles. But as the Japanese invasion looms, Issey knows she must flee. With only moments to spare, she entrusts her fate to the mysterious and handsome Alex Cartwright, who swears he will see her to safety—whatever the cost.

    Cornwall, 2025:
    Nursing a broken heart, Lamorna escapes her life in Singapore and returns to Trelenna, her crumbling Cornish family home. Her sister Zennor is determined to save the house—but she can’t do it alone.

    When a local archivist suggests telling Trelenna’s story through its family archives, Lamorna uncovers a battered leather diary written by Issey, a young woman living a glamorous life in 1940s Singapore. Within its pages lies the gripping account of a desperate wartime escape—and a love tested by unimaginable danger.

    As Lamorna becomes entwined with Issey’s story, she longs to know: did Issey and Alex survive the horrors of the Japanese attack on Singapore? And can their courage, endurance, and sacrifice inspire Lamorna to embrace a new life—and perhaps a new love—at Trelenna?

    Fiery, moving, and utterly enthralling, The Distant Daughter is perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore, Karen Swan, and Kate Morton.

  • Book of the Day: The Return

    The ReturnThe Return by Nicholas Sparks

    Over 35,400 5-Star Reviews!

    #1 New York Times bestselling author Nicholas Sparks returns with a powerful story of love, secrets, and second chances.

    Trevor Benson never meant to return to New Bern, North Carolina. But after a mortar blast outside the hospital where he served as a Navy doctor leaves him badly injured, the rundown cabin he inherited from his grandfather becomes a place to regroup—and to heal.

    While tending his grandfather’s beloved beehives, Trevor isn’t prepared to fall in love. Yet from their first meeting, he feels an undeniable connection to deputy sheriff Natalie Masterson. She seems to feel it too—until her guarded distance makes Trevor wonder what she’s hiding.

    Complicating his stay is Callie, a withdrawn teenage girl from the nearby trailer park. Trevor hopes she can help him understand the mysterious circumstances surrounding his grandfather’s death, but she offers little—until a sudden crisis forces long-buried truths into the open. What Trevor uncovers will change everything he thought he knew about Natalie, Callie, and his grandfather.

    In unraveling their secrets, Trevor discovers the true meaning of love and forgiveness—and that sometimes, to move forward, we must return to where it all began.
