Pages:
Summary:
Life is anything but perfect for Hallie Hartley, a young physical therapist who has given up nearly everything—even her love life—for her beautiful blonde stepsister, Shelly. Though Shelly’s acting career has never taken off, she has certainly perfected the crocodile tears to get what she wants—which all too often means Hallie’s boyfriends. When Hallie arrives home early from work one fateful day, she makes two startling discoveries that will turn her life upside down: Not only has a mysterious relative left Hallie a house on Nantucket, but Shelly has been trying to steal it. Desperate to put her troubles behind her, Hallie impulsively flies to Nantucket.
 
New trouble, however, has already settled into Hallie’s guest room in the form of her newest client. Hallie is told that wealthy, young James Taggert has injured his leg in a skiing accident. Assuming that the devastatingly handsome man has led a charmed life, Hallie is surprised by Jamie at every turn throughout his recovery. His attentions draw her out of her shell—but he has a dark secret, and is tormented by nightmares that only her presence can keep at bay. She suspects there’s more to his injury than he’s letting on.
 
On this gorgeous island rich in history, magic is everywhere, even in Hallie’s own backyard. As Jamie’s relatives arrive for a wedding gala, something wonderfully unusual is in the air. There’s an aura of romance—enhanced by a pair of matchmaking ghosts and a colorful island legend. In their own little corner of the world, Jamie and Hallie unravel the timeless secrets of their own hearts, and a very special story of True Love destined to last forever after.

How To Rock Braces and Glasses

HOW TO ROCK BRACES AND GLASSES by MEG HASTON  *OVERDRIVE AUDIO BOOK REVIEW* Review by Miss Kelly (Youth Services) This book should appeal to pre-teens, but although the basic plot is ok, the treatment is a bit off. I mean, these kids are supposed to be in the 7th grade, but the way they talk and the things they talk about seem too old for 7th grade. It seems like the author wrote a novel for 9th graders, and then just changed the age of the characters. Those 2 years make a big difference in terms of maturity, abilities, responsibilities, etc. It just wasn't believable for me.  The growth of the main character was a little bit slow, but it did happen, so, I guess that is good.  The audio book version seemed to skip a lot. I downloaded it twice, thinking there was an error in a few chapters, but it was exactly the same. So i don't know how Kacey got from the table watching Xander's band to being on stage finishing the set, but its ok. Since I have seen 80...

Brendan Buckley's Universe and Everything in It by   Sundee T. Frazier Brendan, a biracial kid with a knack for science, accidentally finds his bigoted grandfather in the mall - never having met him before because, well, he's a bigot and his mother stopped speaking to him. This potentially heavy material is dealt with deftly and smartly in this book. In the voice of Brendan, we discover things about racism in modern society, the unexplainable causes, the ties that bind, and the people it affects. A really nice addition to a middle grade book shelf - regardless of racial identity. - Miss Kelly
