Your tireless dedication and commitment to getting books into the hands of readers is always a thing of wonder, but no more so than now, when getting books to readers is one of our greatest challenges. We are so appreciative of the hard work that’s gone into keeping all of us both safe and surrounded by the books we love! I’m thrilled to introduce you to Forever’s Digital Sampler of our upcoming titles, which includes books that will make you laugh, make you cry—and will always deliver an HEA to make you smile. In the much-anticipated The Paris Secret, New York Times bestselling author Natasha Lester will transport you to WWII-Paris, with an unforgettable story of love, sacrifice, and the hardships faced by the first female pilots. Across the English Channel, award-winning author Manda Collins speaks truth to power in A Lady’s Guide to Mischief & Mayhem, a fresh and flirty Victorian London-set rom-com about an intrepid lady reporter and the tall, dark, and serious detective with whom she matches wits! Fast-forwarding to the present-day, we simply cannot stop texting, tweeting, and chatting over Farrah Rochon’s heartwarming and hysterical trade paperback debut The Boyfriend Project! Fans of Abby Jimenez and Jasmine Guillory will love Farrah’s friendship-driven romantic comedy about three women who go viral when they discover they’ve all been catfished by the same boyfriend! In Katherine Slee’s charming debut, The Book of Second Chances, the shy granddaughter of a beloved children’s author makes her own life-changing pact— to follow the clues her grandmother left behind and embark on a journey that takes her to bookstores around the globe. Last but not least, author and fellow librarian A.J. Pine absolutely enchants in her western romance Make Mine a Cowboy,where a no-strings cowboy has one summer to show this big-city girl how she’s tied him all up in knots—before she leaves Meadow Valley for good! Despite the changing world around us, one thing remains constant—the success of a book starts with just one reader, one person falling into a world they never want to leave. And you, dear librarian, are that reader. We hope you’ll find something in this sampler that speaks to your heart, that carries you away to a land you never want to leave, that introduces you to friends that will stay long after the last page is read. From Paris to California, rom-coms to cowboys, this sampler showcases just a taste of what Forever has to offer in the coming months. Please follow us on social for the most up-to-date news on our releases—and we’d love to hear from you what books are making your heart sing!

THE BOOK OF SECOND CHANCES Katherine Slee Forever Trade Paperback ISBN: 9781538701652 $15.99 May 5, 2020 THE SUNDAY POST MAGAZINE JULY 15, 2018 CATRIONA ROBINSON’S SWAN SONG Or does Britain’s favorite children’s author still have one last adventure to share? Interview by Suzie Johnstone Catriona Robinson was one of this generation’s most beloved and best-known authors. Her series of children’s books, about a girl in a wheelchair who discovers a magi- cal atlas that transports her all over the globe, has been read and adored by millions. She has also written several works of adult fiction, most recently Enchantment, which was shortlisted for a number of literary prizes last year. A notoriously private person, Catriona spent the major- ity of her time at her home on the Norfolk coast, but in recent years was also a guest lecturer at the University of Cambridge for their creative writing course. It was at Cambridge that I was fortunate enough to meet her. She was giving a lecture to the upcoming finalists and, from what I have heard, it was both inspiring and humble, with a sprinkle of humor thrown into the mix. The hotel in which we met was perhaps not what you would have expected from a woman who, by her own admission, was most comfortable in dungarees and Wellington boots. The establishment in question had a double-height reception hall, an industrial spiral staircase, 2 KATHERINE SLEE and contemporary lighting. There was also a mezzanine library with recessed shelving and plush velvet furniture, which is where I chatted to Catriona over a pot of tea and a slice of her favorite lemon cake. She was wearing a pleated black skirt with turquoise silk blouse, and her hair was styled in a loose chignon. She was animated, relaxed, and even asked our waiter if she could buy the tea set, which was decorated around the rim with paintings of turtledoves, from the hotel. If I hadn’t known otherwise, I would never have guessed the woman seated across from me had only months left to live. You’re about to give a lecture to the next gener- ation of writers. What is it you’ve enjoyed most about teaching here? I never had the opportunity to go to university myself, not least because it wasn’t as commonplace for women back then as it is now. But also because I never believed I was good enough, certainly never thought I would end up here. I am a strong advocate of the fact that all children, irrespective of their gender, race, socioeconomic back- ground, should be encouraged to reach for the stars, to be the very best version of themselves they can possibly be. I have no degree, no formal literary training, and yet am now teaching at one of the most renowned universities in the world. There is no one pathway to success anymore, indeed what does the word even mean? What does it mean to you? When I first began to write, it was out of a simple curiosity for the world. A way to put down onto paper all the crazy THE BOOK OF SECOND CHANCES 3 ideas and characters I kept thinking about. But I never con- sidered it to be anything more than a hobby and certainly never dreamt it would take me on the incredible journey I’ve been fortunate enough to enjoy. Success should never be measured by the amount of money, or things, you have, but more the sense of achievement it gives you. How much of your own success do you put down to happenstance? One could argue that life is nothing but a series of serendipitous events, both good and bad. I try to adhere to the rule that there’s a balance to this universe, this life, and no matter how much pain and hardship we face, there is always something, or someone, to give you hope. There’s a quote from Anne of Green Gables that I have pinned up on my refrigerator at home, which pretty much says it all: “I don't know what lies around the bend, but I'm going to believe that the best does.” What gives you hope? My granddaughter, Emily. You’ve spoken before about how the idea for Ophelia came from her. Yes. As I’m sure everyone is aware, Emily was severely injured in a car accident fifteen years ago. I used to tell her stories while she was recovering, and she liked to draw pictures of the characters. My publisher saw something we had been working on, just for fun, and the rest, as you say, is history. 4 KATHERINE SLEE It seems to be a real collaborative effort between you and Emily. Does that come with its own challenges? (Laughs.) Of course, we’re family, which means we’re always going to have disagreements. But Emily’s real talent is knowing exactly what it is I am trying to describe to the readers and, somehow, she manages to reproduce it in her pictures. Did Emily’s own disability influence the stories you wrote? Emily doesn’t have a disability, but people will believe what they want to believe. My books are there to enter- tain, but also to educate, to inspire. So many people stay in one place for too long, become stagnated by society, by money. But there are all sorts of wonders out there, just waiting for us to find them.

  • Stranje House
    Stranje House A School for Unusual Girls by Kathleen Baldwin Stranje House, School for Unusual Girls Kathleen Baldwin, page 2 Chapter 1 Banished London, 1814 “I’ll wager Sir Isaac Newton’s parents didn’t pack him off to a school to reform his manners.” I smoothed my traveling skirts and risked a glance at my parents. They sat across from me, stone-faced and indifferent to my arguments. “Do be quiet, Georgiana.” With gloved fingers my mother massaged her forehead. Our coach slowed and rolled to a complete standstill, waylaid by crowds spilling into the road. All of London celebrated Napoleon’s capture and imprisonment on the isle of Elba. Rich and poor danced in the streets, rejoicing together and singing songs around makeshift fires. Their jubilation made my journey to exile all the more dismal. My father drummed fingers against his thigh and muttered curse words about our snail-like progress through London. Mother closed her eyes as if in slumber, a ploy to evade my petitions. She could not possibly be sleeping while holding her spine in such an erect formation. She didn’t even allow herself the luxury of leaning back against the squibs for fear of crumpling the feathers on her bonnet. Somehow, some way, I had to make them see reason. “This is a pointless expense. Surely you realize I have no more use for a schoolroom. Next week I turn sixteen, and since I have already been out in society--” Mother snapped to attention, suddenly wide awake. “Oh yes, Georgiana, I’m well aware of the fact that you have already been out in society.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Catch a Cheating Spouse – 15 Traps to Catch a Cheating Spouse –
    1 Table of Contents Introduction 2 Mitigating Factors 5 What is Infidelity? 10 Catching a Spouse Lying 20 Dealing With Suspicions 26 Signs of a Cheating Spouse 33 Following Clues 44 Subtle and Not-So-Subtle Clues 53 The Search for Evidence 56 Surveillance 69 Flushing Some Action 79 Confronting the "Other Person" 82 Making Decisions 85 Family Matters 93 Learning to Say Goodbye 97 Moving On 101 Tips for a Successful Relationship 106 Resources 111 2 Introduction Nobody wants to think that their partner is cheating on them. Single men and women, married couples, engaged couples, and those attempting to develop a long-lasting relationship like to think that their partner is true to them and to them only. Married couples have made promises to each other that everyone expects them to keep. It doesn't matter whether a couple has been married less than a year or for decades, cheating may occur in any relationship. Sometimes the cheating is obvious, but more often than not it begins in a very subtle manner. Some spouses go to great lengths to hide their secret from their partner, and in many situations, it may take quite a while for the partner to figure it out, if he or she ever does. Honesty and truth are such basic parts of any long term relationship that it is often difficult for a spouse to realize that someone has broken that trust. Most men and women who know their spouse well are often aware of subtle changes in personality or behavior that may occur, as well as feeling nagging doubts or suspicions.

Should you investigate your husband if you suspect him of cheating on you? Why even bother trying find out? Why attempt to discover something you’d probably rather not know? Why not take the course of least resistance and leave things as they are? Why not just look the other way until his cheating becomes too blatant to ignore, or until someone brings it to your attention? Why not just pretend it’s not happening and hope for the best? I’m sure one or more of these questions have crossed your mind. Ignorance is Not Bliss When it comes to infidelity, ignorance is not bliss. Ignoring your husband’s affair will not make it go away. Experts say that if a woman does not find out about and address her husband’s cheating, it’s likely to become a permanent state of affairs. Turning a blind eye can cause irreparable harm to your marriage. By pretending it’s not happening, you create a permissive environment and are enabling your husband’s affair. The longer you pretend not to know, the more likely he is to continue, because he thinks he’s getting away with his cheating or feels that you silently approve. Ignoring your husband’s cheating will not make the situation better.
