Not My Heart to Break
Summary
From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters comes a heart-wrenching, edge-of-your-seat gripping, romantic suspense. I ran from him, even though my heart knew better. Love was one thing, but survival another. I should have known he'd come for me. Men like him always get what they want. The temptation in his eyes, the heat of his touch...it's all still there, but his gaze is harsher now and his grasp unrelenting. He's not the boy I fell in love with, although pieces of what we once had are still there. I can feel it. I know what he wants from me, and I know it comes with a steep price. I'll pay it though, if for no other reason than to touch him again. Just once more. I'll close my eyes and forget about the risks that come with this life and with him. I only hope he doesn't do the same. “…the darker side of romance with epic twists of passion, lust, want, need, love, hate, and epic suspense!" (The Sass Nerd BlogNot) My Heart to Give is the complete collection of the USA Today best-selling Hard to Love series.

Taqawan [French Version]
Summary
"Ici, on a tous du sang indien et quand ce n'est pas dans les veines, c'est sur les mains." Le 11 juin 1981, trois cents policiers de la sûreté du Québec débarquent sur la réserve de Restigouche pour s'emparer des filets des Indiens mig'maq. Émeutes, répression et crise d'ampleur : le pays découvre son angle mort. Une adolescente en révolte disparaît, un agent de la faune démissionne, un vieil Indien sort du bois et une jeune enseignante française découvre l'immensité d'un territoire et toutes ses contradictions. Comme le saumon devenu taqawan remonte la rivière vers son origine, il faut aller à la source. Histoire de luttes et de pêche, d'amour tout autant que de meurtres et de rêves brisés, Taqawan se nourrit de légendes comme de réalités, du passé et du présent, celui notamment d'un peuple millénaire bafoué dans ses droits. Taqawan est un fabuleux roman noir interprété avec brio par François-Éric Gendron.
