The House of Closed Doors
By Jane Steen / Genre: Contemporary Fiction
In Nell Lillington’s small Midwestern town of the 1870s, marriage is the obvious fate of a young woman of some social standing. Yet Nell is determined to elude the duties and restrictions of matrimony. So when she finds herself pregnant at the age of 17, she refuses to divulge the name of the father and even her childhood friend Martin is kept in the dark.
Nell’s stepfather Hiram sends Nell to live at the Poor Farm of which he is a governor, to await the day when her baby can be discreetly adopted. Nell is ready to go along with Hiram’s plans until an unused padded cell is opened and two small bodies fall out.
Nell is the only resident of the Poor Farm who is convinced that the unwed mother and her baby were murdered, and the incident prompts her to rethink her decision to abandon her own child to her fate. But the revelations to which her questions lead make her realize that even if she manages to escape the Poor Farm with her baby, she may have no safe place to run to.

How Do You Know?
By Meredith Schorr / Genre: Women’s Fiction, Contemporary Fiction
Life doesn’t happen on a schedule, there are no deadlines in love, and age is just a number.
On the eve of her thirty-ninth birthday, Maggie Piper doesn’t look, act, or feel much different than she did at twenty-nine, but with her fortieth birthday speeding toward her like a freight train, she wonders if she should. The fear of a slowing metabolism, wrinkling of her skin, and the ticking of her biological clock leaves Maggie torn between a desire to settle down like most of her similarly aged peers and concern that all is not perfect in her existing relationship. When a spontaneous request for a temporary “break” from her live-in boyfriend results in a “break-up,” Maggie finds herself single once again and only twelve months from the big 4.0.
As Maggie reenters the New York City dating jungle, suitors present themselves quickly, but who is “The One?” Is he a sexy coworker, one of many bachelors at a speed-dating event, or is he the man she already set free? How do you know? Her fun-loving friends and supportive family, including meddlesome “no-filter” Aunt Helen, eagerly share their (often unsolicited) opinions, but Maggie is determined to find her own way, even if she falls on her face—repeatedly.

Denver Wayne Collins was doing his best to maintain the deteriorating pieces of his life, as he faced a bitter divorce that threatened to rip his six-year-old daughter from his home and heart. And then…it happened. In a blinding flash of lightning and a cascade of thunder, Denver finds himself mysteriously transported back in time to 1956…to the Midwestern town of Normal, Illinois. Quickly arrested by police Chief James McCloud, Denver discovers that he is not alone as a time jumper. Denver joins a small band of time travelers who are desperately struggling to find a technological breakthrough that can send them all home, while keeping their true identities safe from the populace of the small town. They think that no one knows the truth…but a local reporter and the CIA are hot on their trail, seeking to exploit the knowledge held by people from the future. Adding to their troubles, Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin has dispatched a female KGB assassin to locate the group and eliminate them before the American intelligence services can interrogate them. It’s about love, betrayal, and sacrifice, carefully woven into a tale involving murder, espionage, and experimentation with the very fabric of reality. If you love sci-fi, if you crave political thrillers, if you are fascinated by conspiracy theories, then the Back to Normal series is your newest escape. Back to Normal will tease your mind with shocking conclusions about the famous Roswell event, Area 51, the Philadelphia Experiment, and even…the Kennedy assassination. You will never look at history the same way again…it’s time to get challenged, it’s time to get the whole story, it’s time to get Back to Normal.
