Harrow\, the New York Times bestselling author of Starling House\, comes a moving and genre-defying quest about the lady-knight whose legend built a nation\, and the cowardly historian sent back through time to make sure she plays her part–even if it breaks his heart. \n\n\n\nSir Una Everlasting was Dominion’s greatest hero: the orphaned girl who became a knight\, who died for queen and country. Her legend lives on in songs and stories\, in children’s books and recruiting posters—but her life as it truly happened has been forgotten. \n\n\n\nCenturies later\, Owen Mallory—failed soldier\, struggling scholar—falls in love with the tale of Una Everlasting. Her story takes him to war\, to the archives—and then into the past itself. Una and Owen are tangled together in time\, bound to retell the same story over and over again\, no matter what it costs. \n\n\n\nBut that story always ends the same way. If they want to rewrite Una’s legend—if they want to tell a different story–they’ll have to rewrite history itself. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

After being widowed at twenty-nine\, Courtney Pray Duke found herself lying next to her husband’s grave feeling like she couldn’t go on. But she had three young kids who needed her and a faithful God who she knew could do anything. Faced with an unimaginable loss\, Courtney Pray Duke invites you to discover that when life knocks you down\, Jesus is nearer than ever\, reaching out to help you get back up and stand strong. \n\n\n\nCourtney will sit down with Aaron Coe\, host of the podcast\, Don’t Let the Dream Die for a 35-45 minute conversation with a book signing immediately following. \n\n\n\nAt its heart\, Don’t Let the Dream Die is about the story behind the calling—the moments when a dream was tested\, deferred\, misunderstood\, or nearly lost\, and the clarity\, courage\, and faith it took to keep going. Each episode explores not just what someone has built or led\, but the crucible moments that shaped them along the way and the decisions that ultimately changed everything. The goal is to give leaders\, creators\, pastors\, and everyday dreamers language and courage for the season they’re in—especially when perseverance feels costly and quitting feels easier.

A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer\, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot\, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face\, and then never speaks another word. \n\n\n\nAlicia’s refusal to talk\, or give any kind of explanation\, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander\, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets\, and she\, the silent patient\, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove\, a secure forensic unit in North London. \n\n\n\nTheo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia.

If you haven’t already\, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do! \n\n\n\nSometimes love shows up where you least expect it—right next door. \n\n\n\nAt twenty-six\, Sam Pulaski expected to be thriving in her academic career\, living on her own in some exciting city. Expectations meet reality: She has massive student loan debt from studying art history\, a dead-end service industry job\, a situationship that’s equal parts intoxicating and toxic. And she’s been crashing in her mom’s condo—at least it’s not a basement?—for the last five years. If she can finally get accepted into a PhD program and get out of Ohio\, the adult life that’s been on hold for half her twenties will finally begin. \n\n\n\nHer mom’s new neighbor\, Nick\, is the ultimate grown-up. His adult life began the moment his nine-year-old daughter\, Kira\, was born. Her happiness is Nick’s only priority\, especially in the wake of divorce. There’s nothing he won’t do for Kira\, including giving up his globe-trotting career for something more stable . . . like managing a chain restaurant. \n\n\n\nSam has zero interest in an ultra-dependable guy pushing forty; frankly\, she’s a little afraid of kids. But with just one thin wall separating the two condos\, Nick proves difficult to avoid. His quiet confidence forces Sam to grapple with the other men in her life: her emotionally derelict friendwithbenefits and her actually derelict father. As her unexpected connection with Nick heats up (and steams up his minivan windows)\, Sam finds herself falling fast for a man whose life is steady and settled—while hers is anything but. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

Zorah Sharaf brought shame upon her family. What’s the truth? Depends on who you ask. \n\n\n\nThe Sharaf family is the picture of success. Prosperous\, rich\, happy. They came to this country as refugees with nothing more than the clothes on their backs. And now\, after years of hard work\, they live in the most exclusive neighborhood\, their growing family attending the most prestigious schools. Zorah\, the eldest daughter\, is the apple of her father’s eye. \n\n\n\nWhen an unthinkable tragedy strikes\, everyone is left reeling and the family is thrust into the court of public opinion. There is talk that behind closed doors the Sharafs’ happy household was anything but. Did the Sharaf family achieve the American dream? Or was the image of the model immigrant family just a façade? \n\n\n\nLike a literary game of ping-pong\, Good People compels the reader to reconsider what might have happened even on the previous page. Told through a kaleidoscope of perspectives\, it is a riveting\, provocative\, and haunting story of family—sisters\, brothers\, mothers\, fathers\, and the communities that claim us as family in difficult times. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.
