This is a story about a young woman who is a game warden in the rural hills of western Massachusetts, where generations of her family have lived before her. She finds herself, through a freak accident, transported back in time a hundred years to the same area. She is found, injured, by the local doctor, with whom a friendship quickly develops. She realizes that it will be impossible for her to continue in the profession of wildlife law enforcement and must now learn to live in a different time, where there are different rules pertaining to women. As she struggles to adjust to a life where all that she loved and knew has been lost to her, she is fascinated by the people around her and the lives that they are living. She wrestles with the difficult choice of whether or not to reveal what she knows about future events, particularly after meeting her own great-grandparents. As the days go by, she develops friendships and starts to put down her own roots, learning to accept what has been lost to her and embracing her new life, until the day comes when she is faced with the choice of staying or leaving forever.

This refreshing, positive guide helps you take care of your people and form deep connections in the digital age. We are lonelier than ever.

But why—when we are seemingly more connected than ever before—can it feel so difficult to keep those bonds alive and well? Why do we spend only four percent of our time with friends? In this warm, inspiring guide, Adam "Smiley" Poswolsky proposes a new solution for the mounting pressures of modern life: focus on your friendships. Smiley offers practical habits and playful reminders on how to create meaningful connections, make new friends, and deepen relationships. He'll help you develop a healthier relationship with technology, but he'll also encourage you to prioritize real-world experiences, send snail mail, and engage in self-reflective exercises. Written in short, digestible, action-oriented sections, this book reminds us that nurturing old and new friendships is a ritual, a necessity, and one of the most worthwhile things we can do in life.

Books five to eight in the Werewolf Sentinels series. Ice Claimed Finding his mate is something Durlach has longed for, but being in his dire wolf form at the time throws things off—including his mate, who just happened to be on the back of the horse Durlach spooked. Meadow is surprised with how tame the wolf is, and realizes he must be a domesticated pet. When his hunky master comes looking for him, she has sexy visions of taming him too. Burning Ice Riya is a bit of a klutz. And how. Not only does she head-butt the most gorgeous man she’s ever seen, but she manages to put them in the path of a charging bear. Capac is more than thrilled to find his mate, even if she’ll forever keep him on his toes. With the change in leadership of the dark wolves, Riya will be in greater danger than his wolf brothers’ mates ever were. Love on the Ice Carson lost the love of his life four years ago. As a mortal, he’d given Laci his heart, but he’d screwed it all up. Now she’s back in Juneau—and he’s a Werewolf Sentinel. Laci decided her ex wasn’t going to keep her from the city where she’d been born and raised. She was over him, after all. At least she thought so until he touched her. Ice Surrender Ryder finds the process of coming into his full shaman powers harder than he’d expected.

A “wickedly funny” (Newsweek) collection of ten short stories from Nobel Prize–winning author Alice Munro, “one of the most eloquent and gifted writers of contemporary fiction” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). “Each of her collections demonstrates such linguistic skill, delicacy of vision, and . . . moral strength and clarity.”—Chicago Tribune A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husband’s past—and instead discovering unsetting truths about a total stranger. The miraculously accomplished stories in this collection not only astonish and delight, but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. The mastery—the almost numinous ability to say the unsayable—makes Friend of My Youth a genuine literary event.
