This means this book is most certainly worth your time and money!Rebecca's Reads"The Coach House" was a captivating read. Author Florence Osmund writes with impeccable style and I appreciated the little touches of the era that she consistently added to her novel. "The Coach House" is a great book for anyone who likes reading triumph over adversity type stories.BestChickLitThe reason why the book is so captivating is that it focuses on more than just the woman's role and her relationship with a controlling man.

With its beautiful descriptions and perfectly placed lyrics from artists such as Bing Crosby this book is not only thought evoking, but also a genuine pleasure to read. Osmund has created an excellent balance between the social situation surrounding race and sex in the 1940's and the personal journey of our heroine, keeping the reader engaged throughout. Mary CroccoThe Coach House is a superbly written book, in my opinion. It will leave the reader thinking about relationships, adversity, independence and growth, and prejudices. It's always nice to finish a good book with something to think about.San Francisco Book ReviewThe Coach House is a well-written saga that obviously required a ton of research for all the details in includes. I was a tad bothered by some of the anachronisms, but not enough to turn me away from the author's compelling style. I'd happily recommend this book to any reader.From the Back Cover1945 Chicago.

Until little things start to pop up that put her on alert: late night phone calls, cryptic receipts hidden in the basement, and a gun in his desk drawer. When she learns he secretly attends a mobster's funeral, her feelings are confirmed. And when she inadvertently interrupts a meeting between Richard and his so-called business associates, he causes her to fall down the basement steps, compelling Marie to run for her life. Ending up in Atchison, Kansas, Marie quickly sets up a new life for herself. She meets Karen Franklin, a woman who will become her lifelong best friend, and rents a coach house apartment behind a three-story Victorian home. But her attempts at a new life are fraught with the fear that Richard will show up at any time--and who knows what he or his associates will do then? Ironically, it is the discovery of the identity of her real father and his ethnicity that unexpectedly changes her life forever.Deftly portraying a life in a terrifying transition, Osmund tears open layers of confusion, anger, fear, and shame that are universal to the human experience of catharsis and growth. With extraordinary insight into our most basic need for trust and connection, The Coach House expertly builds tension as it brings into the open our primal instincts for survival and community.

THE PHANTOM COACH: Collected Ghost Stories
Amelia B. Edwards
Travel / Literature & Fiction / Mystery & Thrillers
AMELIA B. EDWARDS is acknowledged as one of the best of Victorian ghost story writers. She was one of the select band of authors who was invited by Charles Dickens to contribute ghost stories to the Christmas numbers of his magazine ALL THE YEAR ROUND, and some of her tales—such as 'The Four-fifteen Express', 'Number Three', 'My Brother's Ghost Story', and the highly influential 'The Phantom Coach'—have become staples of ghost story anthologies. There was much more to Amelia Edwards than ghost stories, however, as Richard Dalby makes clear in his introduction. She was an indefatigable traveller, and she incorporated much of what she observed into her ghost stories, many of which are set in northern and central Europe. She was also an archaeologist of work renown, who was instrumental in ensuring that the treasures and antiquities of ancient Egypt were properly excavated and preserved. THE PHANTOM COACH is the first time that all of Amelia B. Edwards's supernatural fiction has been collected in one volume. In addition to all her known ghost stories, the volume also contains three additional items, including a delightful piece by Edwards herself about 'My Home Life': a fascinating look at one of the Victorian era's most fascinating women.

The Coach and the Secret (New Hampshire Bears #5)
Mary Smith
Dear Reader, This is not your typical synopsis you normally read. In this section, you would see a short, overview of the book you may want to purchase. This time I’m speaking directly to you and warning you of this book. Most of my books have a lot of romance, sex, sometimes funny, and a lot of hot hockey players. This book is different. You see The Coach and the Secret is loosely based off a real man’s story. At first his story was so outrageous I almost didn’t believe it, but after seeing an abundance of evidence my heart broke for him and his daughter.This book has extreme adult topics and please keep in mind when you read this, you don’t know unless you’ve been in their situation. Thank you Mary Smith All money will be given to the family of domestic violence **
