New Year’s Eve
By Marina Endicott
On New Year’s Eve, Dixie and her husband Grady set off on a car trip. They plan to visit Grady’s family, five hours away. But soon they’re caught in a blizzard. They turn off the highway and go to their friend Ron’s house. Both Grady and Ron are RCMP officers. When Ron must go out on duty, Grady goes with him.
Dixie spends the evening sharing secrets with a couple of other RCMP wives. By midnight, Dixie has learned a thing or two about marriage, and about love.
New Year’s Eve leads to a turning point for Dixie and Grady. And a new road for them both.
The Day the Rebels Came to Town
By Robert Hough
The year is 1920, and all of Mexico is at war with itself. Gangs of rebels roam the country, stealing money, food, and horses. Carlos is 28 years old. He works in his father’s café. One day, a gang rides into Carlos’s village. When the gang leaves, they kidnap Carlos.
Weeks later, the rebels and Carlos ride into the town of Rosita. Suddenly, Carlos is forced to make a life or death decision. He does so, though in a way that surprises everyone.
Is Carlos a brave man or a coward? It is a question that takes him a lifetime to answer.
