Once she is finally free, she leaves the Amish and moves to New York City with big plans of going to college for writing -- instead, she is tricked and lured into prostitution with the false promises of getting a publishing contract. After she testifies against the criminals in court who stole two years of her life, she decides to go back to Unity, Maine to see her friends from childhood even though her pimp threatens to track her down and kill her if he ever gets out of prison. While she's in Unity, Detective Theo Kingsley stops by to visit and check on the Amish families who were victims of the kidnapping cases he investigated not long ago. When he meets Ava while vising the Kulp family, he is instantly drawn to her. Detective Theo Kingsley never thought he'd find love again after his wife was killed in a hit-and-run in New York City. Ava wants to get to know him and let him into her life, but she is afraid she will never trust any man ever again. With his kindness and humor, he breaks down her walls, and she finds herself wanting to open her heart to him. When a threat from her past comes after her and she is accused of murder, Theo may be the only person who can protect her."--

- Fatal alliance / by Williams, Sean,1967-author.(CARDINAL)348620;
"Tassaa Bareesh, a matriarch in the Hutt crime cartel, is holding an auction that's drawing attention from across the galaxy. Representatives of both the Republic and the Sith Empire are present, along with a Jedi Padawan sent to investigate, a disenfranchised trooper drummed out of the Republic's elite Blackstar Squad, and a mysterious Mandalorian with a private agenda. But the Republic's envoy is not what he seems, the Empire's delegate is a ruthless Sith apprentice, the Jedi Padawan is determined to do the right thing and terrified that he can't, the trooper hopes to redeem her reputation, and the Mandalorian is somehow managing to keep one step ahead of everyone. None of these guests--invited or uninvited--have any intention of participating in the auction. Instead they plan to steal the prize, which is locked inside an impregnable vault: two burned chunks of an exploded star cruiser, one of which may hold the key to the wealth of an entire world. But the truth about the treasure is dangerous and deadly. And in the end, Sith and Jedi, Republic and Empire, must do something they've never done before, something that all the agents of good and evil could never make them do: join together to stop a powerful threat that could destroy the galaxy."--Dust cover flaps.Accelerated Reader AR

- Western alliances / by Barnhardt, Wilton,author.(CARDINAL)314452;
"Salvador, the patriarch, runs one of Wall Street's biggest banks the summer before everything collapses; Roberto and Rachel, his two children, have never worked a day in their lives; and Lena, his ex-wife, is a scheming hypochondriac. Part travelogue, part epic family drama, the novel follows Roberto and Rachel across Europe as the two dilettantes come to terms with their father's choices and the repercussions of his actions. Oozing with his signature satire and biting wit, Barnhardt invites readers on aliterary romp from an elegant Paris apartment to a hilariously-inept London hotel, ancient churches and crypts to gleaming Mediterranean coasts, hot dog stands in Providence, RI to the best places in Manhattan, and terrifying encounters in the Serbian countryside to dangerous liaisons in Moscow, as two grown-up rich kids are forced to come of age at last. In Western Alliances Barnhardt he delivers an un-put-down-able saga examining privilege, loyalty, ambition, and what family members owe to one another."--
