Light in Darkness
Summary
The conclusion to the In the End duology. Welcome to the new world. We thought we were the last and all we had to do was survive the initial outbreak. Turns out the hard part is surviving each other. Man, the post-apocalypse is brutal. Most of the runners have phased out, but a fraction have survived. They are smarter, faster, and way more deadly. When Jace'el and I are stranded in the middle of nowhere and all our supplies are stolen, we have no choice but to join another group of survivors. But they're leading us into an underground bunker, which severely limits our escape routes. We were supposed to be safe, but the virus has mutated, making the infected smarter than anyone ever thought possible. Our only hope for survival is to make it to the Tower, where we'll be safe behind walls with a group of survivors just like us. That is, if we can outrun the creatures hunting us because safety is really only an illusion. I am Raylinn Marrow, and this is the end of the beginning. Note: post-apocalyptic conclusion with mild swearing.

The School Mistress
Summary
How easily can an open heart unlock the door to happily ever after? When Miss Quinn Cooper arrives in Emerson Pass, Colorado, her entire life is packed into one small suitcase. Her family is depending upon her for their survival back home in Boston, and the self-appointed mayor of the rugged mountain community is counting on Miss Cooper to prove herself a fitting teacher for the entire town. Lord Alexander Barnes is determined to bring a bit of English civility to the wild terrain of Emerson Pass. Using his own resources, the widower and father of five builds a schoolhouse and recruits a young teacher from the East, and all is well until necessity forces the lovely, young newcomer to also take a room in the Barnes’ home. While the five Barnes children are sure the new schoolmarm is the perfect woman for their lonely father, and the duo has been forced together by every possible circumstance, the threat of violence upon the untamed town makes any hope of a budding romance seem unwise. But as Lord Barnes and Miss Cooper persist in their efforts to bring progress to the closed-minded locals, their own hearts may be unable to resist the chance to experience something as fresh and exhilarating as the unsettled mountain territory. The first installment of USA Today best-selling author Tess Thompson’s historical romance series brings a touch of whimsy and an extra dash of mystery to Edwardian romance. Listeners will fall in love with the courageous Miss Cooper and swoon for the magnanimous English lord as they struggle to save their exciting new world at the turn of the 20th century.

How to Get Your Kids to Listen to You
Summary
Being a parent is the hardest job in the world – there’s no denying that! Not only do you have to keep a child healthy and happy, you are in charge of disciplining them, turning them into a good human being for the sake of society. And there’s where everything starts to go downhill. No matter how fiercely you love your child and no matter how devoted they are to you, children doesn’t want to listen! They don’t want to listen to you when you want them to do something, and definitely not when you don’t want them to do something. The result – utter chaos! I should know – I’ve been through that chaos. With a 6-year-old and a 2-year-old who didn’t listen to anything I told them, I was drowning in desperation and frustration. There wasn’t anything left for me to try to get my kids to listen to me – threatening them, punishing them, bribing them, cajoling them, trying to buy them with gifts, and what not. I was never a bad mother, but I was definitely a clueless one! Then, I thought of being an effective mother – the kind of parent who knows the right way of making her kids listen. Months of research and talking to other parents, I came up with a plan, and everything I’ve learned is in this book. This book has everything every parent needs to know about making their children listen to them - not just hear the words, but listen and act on them. I’ve divided the book into chapters, each one dealing with specific phrases of their lives. There’s also a chapter, at the beginning of the book, about why your children may not listen to you, which you can listen to see where you’re going wrong. If you also have problems with getting your kids to listen to you, I really hope this book can help!
