Other people's things : a novel / by King, Kerry Anne,author.;
"Jailbird. Klepto. Spectacular failure to launch. Nicole Wood's sticky fingers have earned her many names, but it's not that she's stealing--some objects just need to be moved elsewhere, and the universe has chosen her to do it. Still, being a relocator of objects isn't easy. With her marriage on the rocks, no real-world skills, and the threat of prison hanging over her head, Nicole is determined to change her ways. Things seem to be looking up, thanks to a godsent job with her sister's housecleaning business--until she encounters a seemingly harmless paperback that insists on moving from one client's home to another's. Nicole hopes no one will notice, but the action stirs up long-hidden secrets and triggers a series of fateful events that threatens to destroy the life she's creating and hurt those closest to her. She'll need to embrace her unwieldy gift and take a chance on love in order to unravel the mystery and fix what's gone wrong."--Page [4] cover.

Take it from me [large print] / by Beck, Jamie,author.(CARDINAL)617360;
"Wendy Moore hides her collection of pilfered bric-a-brac from everyone, including her husband. He thinks she licked her kleptomania in therapy more than a decade ago. Therapy did help, as did focusing her attention on motherhood. But now Wendy's gardening and furniture-refinishing hobbies fill up only so much of her day, leaving the recent empty nester lonely and anxious - a combination likely to trigger her little problem. She needs a project, fast. Luckily, Harper Ross - a single, childless younger woman in desperate need of highlights - just moved in next door. The only thing Harper wants to change is the writer's block toppling her confidence and career. Then a muse comes knocking. Sensing fodder for a new antagonist, Harper plays along with Wendy's "helpful" advice while keeping her career a secret so Wendy keeps talking. Sure, she's torn about profiting off her neighbor's goodwill - especially when Wendy's matchmaking actually pans out - but Harper's novel is practically writing itself. Just as a real friendship begins to cement, their deceptions come to light, threatening Wendy's and Harper's futures and forcing them to reconcile who they are with who they want to be. Easier said that done."--
