NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • When a woman alone in the world bravely chooses to open her heart, two lost souls have a new chance at belonging, in this intimate novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. A new beginning in charming Oceanside, Washington, is exactly what Hope Godwin needs after the death of her twin brother. There are plenty of distractions, like her cozy cottage with the slightly nosy landlords next door, and a brewing drama among her students at the local high school. Even having settled quickly into the community, Hope still feels something is still missing. That is, until her landlords convince her to volunteer at their animal shelter. There she meets Shadow, a rescue dog that everyone has given up on. But true to her name, Hope believes he’s worth saving. Like Shadow, shelter volunteer Cade Lincoln Jr. is suffering with injuries most can’t see. A wounded ex-marine, Cade identifies with Shadow, assuming they are both beyond help. Hope senses that what they each need is someone to believe in them, and she has a lot of love to give. As she gains Shadow’s trust, Hope notices Cade begins to open up as well. Finding the courage to be vulnerable again, Cade and Hope take steps toward a relationship, and Hope finally begins to feel at peace in her new home. But Hope’s happiness is put to the test when Cade’s past conflicts resurface, and Hope becomes embroiled in the escalating situation at the high school. Love and compassion are supposed to heal all wounds, but are they enough to help Hope and Cade overcome the pain of their past and the obstacles in the way of a better future?

Surprising New Science to Help Your Canine Companion Live Younger, Healthier, and Longer

"A ground-breaking book to help dogs live healthier and longer lives. When Rodney Habib's dog, Sam, was diagnosed with cancer in 2013, it sent him on a mission to save her life. At the age of five, Sam was given only six months to live. Her plight inspired Rodney to travel the world, looking for innovative ways to arrest the progression of the disease. In his quest to save Sam, he met world-renowned veterinarian Karen Becker, a proactive pet health advocate with more than 20 years of experience. The two quickly realized they had the same goal: to improve the quality of life for dogs and pet parents everywhere. For the last three years, they've interviewed top geneticists, microbiologists, and researchers, collecting data related to their mission. What they discovered has the potential to change the pet world forever, just as it has changed the fate of Rodney's beloved Sam, who is now 11, and still very much a part of his life. They interviewed top geneticists, microbiologists, and people who have owned the oldest dogs in the world to find out what they did--or didn't do--to enable their dogs to live into their 20s and, in some cases, even into their 30s. What they discovered has the potential to change the pet world forever. Backed by cutting-edge research, The Forever Dog explores the key factors that can help improve your dog's health lengthen your dog's lifespan including the truth about the food that you're probably feeding your pet and then explain what the commercial manufacturers don't want you to know: that is, what that food is actually doing to your pet's health. We'll offer practical solutions and tips on how to better provide your dog the nutrients he needs--safely. In Lifestyle, we'll explore how external factors such as exercise, environmental toxins, the stress in your own life and the choices your veterinarian leads you to make can greatly affect your pet's overall health and wellbeing so you can raise a Forever Dog."--

A Novel of the First Dog

From W. Bruce Cameron, the author of the New York Times and USA Today bestselling novel A Dog's Purpose, which is now a major motion picture! Set against the most dramatic time in our species' history, The Dog Master tells the story of one tribe's struggle for survival and one extraordinary man's bond with a wolf-a friendship that changed mankind forever Thirty thousand years ago, ice was storming the planet. Among the species forced out of the trees and onto the steppes by the advancing cold was modern man, who was both predator and prey. No stranger to the experiences that make us human-a mother's love and a father's betrayal, tribal war and increasing famine, political intrigue and forbidden love, joy and hope and devastating loss-our ancestors competed for scant resources in a brutal landscape. Mankind stood on the cold brink of extinction...but they had a unique advantage over other species, a new technology-domesticated wolves. Only a set of extraordinary circumstances could have transformed one of these fierce creatures into a hunting companion, a bodyguard, a soldier, and a friend. The Dog Master by W. Bruce Cameron is an evocative glimpse of prehistory, an emotional coming of age saga, a thrilling tale of survival against all odds, and the exciting, imaginative story of the first dog.

Grubstake is a grubby down-on-its-luck mining town filled with grubby down-on-their-luck miners. So when a decidedly nongrubby city slicker shows up and offers to buy the tapped-out mines, the miners are sorely tempted. But not Arley, the brash sixteen-year-old girl who runs the boardinghouse. No, Arley smells a rat. What could some fancy-britches rascal want with empty mines? Is there more in those desolate pits than the Grubs realize? Like Jean Ferriss popular 'Once Upon a Marigold,' this lighthearted, endearingly goofy story is packed with quirky, lovable characters and piercing insights.

What I Learned about Joy from One Neurotic (and Very Expensive) Dog

When Judith Summers first met George, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who would change her life, she and her young son, Joshua, were mourning the deaths of her husband and her father, who had died barely two weeks apart. It was love at first sight. George was the ultimate upper-class pooch, and seemingly the perfect puppy, brimming with love and joy and complete with "the kind of film-star looks that made strangers stop in the street and coo over him." But, as Judith soon discovered, George was as time-consuming as a full-time job and as expensive to run as a Ferrari. Willful, possessive and badly behaved, he refused to eat anything other than organic roast chicken, destroyed her work, and suffered from every allergy and illness under the sun. On top of that, George was horribly accident-prone. Stuff happened to him. His vet bills alone have run to $25,000and George is still only nine years old! It wasnt long before King George ruled the roost in Judith's home. But even after he drove away one of her suitors, she couldnt fathom giving him up. Just as his naughtiness was boundless, so was his devotion to her and her son. A foot-warmer on cold nights, a good listener, and a fierce (okay, not so fierce) protector, George was always by their side--and much of the time underfoot. For anyone who has ever loved an incorrigible pet or known what it was like to lose a loved one, My Life with George is the hilarious and moving account of the impossible but adorable George, and of the wonderful way in which he helped to fill a huge void in the lives of both Judith and her son while driving them absolutely barking mad along the way.
