Out of Ireland by Marian O’Shea Wernicke
Out of Ireland is a heart wrenching story of two young siblings in the mid-1800s. Their love of Ireland is pitted against the political backdrop of the time, forcing them to seek a better life in America. What awaits them is both unexpected and inevitable.

Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll
Everyone has heard of Ted Bundy, but can you name any of the numerous women he murdered? This novel does just that. It shows us stories behind the victims and the glorification of Ted Bundy as some bright young man who just happened to kill women. I simply could not put this book down and read it in one day. You should read it, too.

This is chick lit at its best! Can a writer of screenplays featured on Lifetime Movie Network really hook a leading man? You already know the answer, but it is a fun romp to get to the happy ending.
