The hardest stories to tell are often the ones about forgiveness.

Forgiveness is often spoken about as if it were simple-a choice, a virtue, a single moment of grace. But anyone who has lived through mental health, addiction, trauma, abuse, or deep loss knows the truth: it is rarely simple.

When We Forgive is a collection of fifteen stories tracing the path between hurt and healing.

These stories reflect on what it means to forgive others, to forgive ourselves, and, in some cases, to face the weight of having caused harm-and the longing to be forgiven.

Written for those who feel forgiveness may be out of reach, this collection offers lived experiences not as answers, but as a reminder that even in the most difficult circumstances, change is possible.

All proceeds from this book support the Life to Paper Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to helping individuals impacted by mental health and addiction experience the therapeutic power of storytelling.

When a firefighter is forced to jump from a burning building, his family's lives are changed forever.

When Eileen Bellew's FDNY husband, John, was forced to jump from a fourth-story window, on the infamous Black Sunday in the Bronx, Eileen became a widow at 35-years-old with four small children to raise on her own. PTSD, anxiety, and panic attacks ambushed her as she struggled through bottomless grief and the ensuing legal trials, all while trying not to let her fear do irreparable damage to her four little loves.

Eileen's insightful, shocking, and often humorous story spans twenty years of enlightenment as she navigates her emotional roller coaster life through heartache, healing, and the surprise of finding love again. Her frank account of how she gained resilience and strength brings hope through the lessons she learned and shows how we can find positivity even in the worst tragedy.

Introducing a puppy to family life is all fun and games- until it's not. Little Pooski pulls on the heartstrings of her new family as she gets into more and more mischief. There are so many things to sniff, taste and chew, what's a pup to do? When she goes a step too far, the family must decide- does she stay or does she go? Pooski reminds kids of all ages of the shenanigans, responsibilities and unexpectedly strong bonds created when a naughty but wonderful little ball of fur trots into your home.

They said your Crohn's was incurable. What if they were wrong?

For too long you have suffered from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Crohn's disease. Ulcerative colitis. Discomfort--or outright pain--is part of your normal life.

But it doesn't have to be.

Hadley Ott knows from personal experience how debilitating living with Crohn's disease can be. At twelve, he became one of the thirty thousand Americans diagnosed every year with the condition. His doctors insisted that he would be a lifelong patient. Drug-Free Crohn's not only illustrates how he proved them wrong; it provides hope for you to do the same.

Discover the links between a highly refined diet, manmade environmental factors, and chronic autoimmune diseases like Crohn's. Then explore the many avenues of healing, including nutrition, exercise, environment, mental and spiritual well-being, and lifestyle. Conventional wisdom claims you'll never be well. Drug-Free Crohn's knows you can be.

The world expected NHI - non-human contact - to arrive in spaceships. It arrived twelve thousand years ago in the form of an impossibly stubborn ancient English Bulldog, and an absolute refusal to let go.

When seventeen-year-old Nick Constantino arrives at his grandfather Giovanni's New England workshop, still unraveling from a grief he was never taught to carry, the last thing he expects to find is a sixty-pound English Bulldog who seems to have been waiting for him. Baloo is not what a dog is supposed to be. He watches with an attention that belongs to something older and quieter than any animal Nick has ever known - moving through town on his own errands, answering calls no one made aloud, and arriving at Nick's door in the dark hours with a weight that feels less like comfort and more like intention.

Giovanni has felt it too. For months the old craftsman has understood, in the wordless way he understands wood grain and silence, that Baloo is performing a vigil. That something is being transferred between them - breath by breath, night by night - a weight that is not burden but purpose. And now that purpose is shifting. The dog's attention is moving toward the boy.

Because Nick is coming apart. Since a catastrophic accident claimed his father, panic arrives without warning - pulling him under in quiet rooms and ordinary afternoons. He has inherited something enormous with no instruction on how to carry it. What Baloo offers is not therapy. It is something far older: a presence that knows precisely how much weight a breaking thing requires.

What neither of them understands yet is that Baloo's vigil is not new. It has never been new. For twelve thousand years, something ancient and deliberate has moved alongside human history - holding the signal steady at the moments when everything threatened to go dark.

The dog on your grandfather's workshop floor is not a pet. He is a presence. And he has been waiting for this moment specifically.

A tune with familiar strains...

For Katie DeBonville, life in music began in earnest when she first picked up the flute at the age of ten. Music became the catalyst through which she learned to understand herself, the common thread woven through a life anchored in family and friendship. In this debut memoir, the author reflects on the role music has played throughout her life, from listening to Top 40 tunes as a teen in the 1980s to navigating her chosen career in a field that is music-based without being performance-based. Her discoveries-about both herself and her relationships-are universal. Grace Notes is the story of a life composed, like a piece of music, by a woman approaching her fiftieth birthday, as she goes through a time of great personal change in a world that's in flux. It's both messy and graceful, a tune with familiar strains that is ultimately a melody all its own.

She's chasing her one and only dream. Can she experience motherhood, or will all her hopes for the future crumble?

Allison James is finally thriving. No longer mourning her old PR career or cheating ex-fiancé, the thirty-eight-year-old entrepreneur embraces a successful business supporting nonprofits and her gorgeous coffeehouse owner boyfriend. But when her mother suddenly suffers a heart attack in the middle of the night, she's completely shaken to realize once again how quickly life can change-and vows now is the time to be a mom.

Unfortunately, her partner isn't so sure he wants to be a father, and Allison worries her pursuit of pregnancy could break them up again. But when tragedy strikes and her ride-or-die best friend is suddenly avoiding her, she feels her world spiraling as her envisioned family seems to be falling apart.

Struggling through heartbreak, loss, and unpredictable twists threatening all she loves, will Allison lose faith or discover that something greater lies in wait?

Justice Is Never Clean. Out Here It's Personal.

From the dust-choked trails of the frontier to the shadowed backroads of the modern West, Hard Country portrays the raw, unflinching heart of Western crime, asking the same hard questions that have always defined the West: Who holds the line? Who bends? Who survives when justice comes due?

Featuring a powerhouse mix of award winners, fan favorites, and New York Times bestsellers-including C.J. Box, Jonathan Maberry, Jeffery Deaver, Heather Graham, W. Michael Gear, and M. William Phelps-Hard Country delivers a brand-new Joe Ledger story from Maberry, a sharp-turn Ty Dawson case from Baron Birtcher, and a thrilling Conor Armenta adventure from Jefferson Glass.

They're joined by a formidable slate of Western and crime-fiction veterans-Johnny Boggs, Larry D. Sweazy, Phillip Thompson, J.B. Stevens, Paul Colt, Phil Mills, Jr., W. Michael Farmer, Mike Blakely, Rik "Yonder" Goodell, and more-each delivering fast-paced, high-stakes stories set in landscapes that feel carved from iron.

With punchy storytelling, characters who live and die by their own rules, and the same unforgiving edge that makes Western crime so unforgettable, Hard Country takes readers on a journey through the violence, sacrifice, honor, and stark beauty of the American West. All proceeds benefit the U.S. Marshals Survivors Benefit Fund, supporting the families of those who gave everything in the line of duty.

The hardest conflict to face is the one within.

MyLinh Shattan is no stranger to conflict, from evacuating during the fall of Saigon to reporting to West Point shortly after it accepts women. But when her daughter, Cara, becomes a West Point cadet, she confronts memories she would rather leave behind and new fears as a military mom.

For thirty years, MyLinh evaded questions about serving in the US Army. Now, watching her daughter follow in her footsteps, she finds herself searching for answers.

Why does anyone join the military?

What's changed for women in the past three decades?

What hasn't?

Raising Athena is a passionate, nuanced, often philosophical testament to the dedication and courage of those who protect our country. This memoir explores in intimate detail the stories we tell ourselves--about war, the disconnect between myth and reality, and what it means to serve.

Godhuli Chatterjee Gupta's second poetry collection honors the stories and sacrifices of South Asian immigrant women-a generation of magnificent women who gave up everything in their homelands for better opportunities overseas. During a time when immigrants are under attack worldwide, this collection sheds light on their extraordinary journeys, while humanizing their experiences and highlighting the many ways in which future generations can draw from their ancestral strength to move forward in their own paths of self-discovery. It is time we celebrate and elevate the voices of the matriarchs who raised us. To honor both the pain and the joy, to forgive and to break cycles, and to let the breadth of their experiences become a source of strength and motivation for us to keep going. And to keep spreading love.

In 1947 Marcel Duchamp sent a telegram from NYC to Paris and in 1990 David Prowler found it in a bookstore in San Francisco, launching a treasure hunt for Duchamp's life, thoughts, and art.

Now back in print, A Telegram From Marcel Duchamp brings Duchamp's essence to life.

Duchamp is generally considered the most influential artist of the 20th Century. But he was also a great thinker, and A Telegram From Marcel Duchamp is a seriously fun introduction to his thoughts.

It's got something for everyone: How to draw a giraffe, Ernest Hemingway, multiple choice quizzes, theories on the suicide of Arshile Gorky, Hedy Lamarr, visionary architect Frederick Kiesler, and a selection of Surrealist superstitions -all seen through the keyhole of the Telegram.

Duchamp believed in Chance - but not in Belief. He sought out things with "a total absence of good or bad taste". He celebrated everyday objects and gave us a new way to look at the world around us, inspiring generations of artists.

A Telegram From Marcel Duchamp "prompts the reader to reflect upon - and experience directly - the artist's thought. An artful, witty little book. We finally feel challenged, satisfied and perhaps somewhat enlightened." Artweek

It's:

"entertaining " Allen Ginsberg

"delightful ...the whole of it has a fine Duchampian irony ". Calvin Tomkins

"a gem" Mark Polizzotti, author of Why Surrealism Matters

It's "quirky and charming, exactly in the spirit of the Maestro " Donald Quaintance, author, Duchamp in California: Walter Hopps Curates a Retrospective

It's "stimulating" according to Arturo Schwarz, author of The Complete Works of Marcel Duchamp

And Mme. Duchamp "enjoyed it a lot".

The book will find an audience in fans of art, Duchampians, and anyone looking for a playful mix of images and text.

Release of the expanded and redesigned 2026 edition is timed to coincide with major Duchamp retrospectives at the Museum of Modern Art, Philadelphia Museum of Art, and Paris' Grand Palais.

Life is all about surviving for ex-Army helicopter pilot Hawk Gunn, until he rescues Lucky Sinclair and sparks fly, passion ignites, and they both learn to let go of the past and really start living.

Hawk Gunn has spent the last two years healing after his military career ended in a helicopter crash. Now he works with his brothers at Gunn Brothers Distillery, and to combat the guilt, remorse, grief, and undying memories, he uses his skills to find the lost and injured with his local search and rescue team. So when he finds his housekeeper near death in a ravine, he's the perfect man to save her life. After all, she saved him first.

Lucky Sinclair does not live a charmed life. Abused by her sadistic father and dismissed by her indifferent mother, she endured, until one night her high school boyfriend murdered her whole family and went to prison. Years later, it's her pen pal relationship with Hawk that makes life worth living.

It can't be coincidence that Neil's free and someone tried to kill her-more than once. Neil's out on parole-and looking for revenge? It doesn't make sense. He saved her. But someone wants her dead. As she and Hawk search for answers, the deeper they fall in love.

Hawk is on a mission to keep Lucky safe. But as evidence mounts and secrets unravel, they learn the shocking truth. The people who supposedly loved her were betraying her all along.
