Sophia Bush has always understood the power of stories. She's seen it in the connection millions around the world have had to the women she's played on-screen-including Drs. Sam Griffith on Good Sam and Cass Beckman on Grey's Anatomy, Erin Lindsay on Chicago P.D., and, of course, the iconic, beloved Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill-and in activism, where exposing truths about inequality and power has opened eyes, forced change, and made her a symbol of fearlessness. She's also seen it in her personal life, when her experiences and opinions have been distorted to drive clicks and create drama. Stories are powerful. And now, in And I Will Tell You Mine, these will be shared by the woman they belong to: Sophia herself. With unflinching honesty, she opens up about her bohemian childhood in Los Angeles and the unexpected road from journalism student to actor; the life-changing decade of One Tree Hill, where she navigated relationships on- and off-screen and fought for her character's integrity; the realities of marriage and divorce in the spotlight; and her years in Chicago, where a dream job forced her into two lives-a badge-wearing protector in one, and a woman in need of protecting in the other. She also offers a side of herself that's not often seen: the curious, human, laugh-out-loud-funny Sophia, who boldly defies demands that she stay in her lane instead of pursuing activism; hops on a last-minute flight to attend a dance party at the White House; gathers community and finds chosen family in unexpected places (including a cruise); and makes the most of vacations gone horribly, hilariously wrong. Beautifully written, and at turns both personal and universal, And I Will Tell You Mine is Sophia's unforgettable journey through becoming, un-becoming, and becoming again; embracing the light when the world feels overwhelmingly dark; and finally, joyously, coming home to your truest self.

My job in the NYPD taught me two things. Loving someone is a distraction. And distractions can be deadly. After fifteen years in the NYPD, I've traded my badge for a pen, becoming a bestselling crime writer. It's given me everything I didn't want-fame, fortune, and a deep distrust of strangers. When a crazy fan recreates the scenes in my books, I move to Sunrise Bay. And there, in a small town on the shore of Willow Lake, I meet Riley. He's a successful artist and the sweetest, kindest person I know. My instincts tell me to keep my distance, to protect him from the shadows of my past. But I'm falling in love, and I don't know what to do about it-until the reason I left New York City targets him. Suddenly, I'm faced with the raw honesty of my feelings. I'll risk everything to save Riley. FINDING FOREVER is a sweet M/M romance that's set in a small town full of lovable characters, heart-melting moments, action-packed suspense, and lots of feel-good factors. It's the first book in the Sunrise Bay series and can easily be read as a standalone. Happy reading! Each of Josh's novels are linked so you can discover what happens to your favorite characters in other books.

Learn how to break free from worry's grip and raise more confident, resilient children who can cope with life's many challenges. Are you a parent who worries a lot? If so, you are not alone. Relentless worry is currently the norm. While concern about important issues is certainly beneficial, worrying about them is not. But, worrying can be a hard habit to break, even though it often causes added stress and anxiety in the home. In Base Camp Parenting: Worry Less to Help Your Kids More, Susan Bauerfeld and Chris Parrott give parents the tools necessary to shift away from worrying. They discuss the adverse impact of parental worrying on "Base Camp"--the environment in which children are raised--and show how shifting attention away from worried thinking is crucial to overall health and well-being. In addition, they provide parents with an easy-to-implement four-step process that leaves families calmer, more connected, and better prepared to handle situations as they arise. By following this process, parents model how best to cope with the stress and anxiety of everyday life, leading their children to become more resilient, capable, and healthy. In a culture where worry is often worn like a badge of honor, Base Camp Parenting is a rallying cry for change, delivering a clear, compassionate roadmap for breaking the worry cycle and building a happier, healthier home.

This New York Times and USA TODAY bestseller, is a collaboration between twenty bestselling mystery novelists who have joined forces to create a spellbinding story of love, betrayal, and intrigue. “Readers can’t go wrong with this juicy thriller” raves Library Journal. Pericles “Perry” Christo is a PI with a past—a former cop who lost his badge and his family when a corruption scandal left him broke and disgraced. So when wealthy Upper East Side matron Julia Drusilla summons him one cold February night, he grabs what seems to be a straightforward (and lucrative) case. The socialite is looking for her beautiful, aimless daughter, Angelina, who is about to become a very wealthy young woman. But as Christo digs deeper, he discovers there’s much more to the lovely “Angel” than meets the eye. This classic noir tale twists and turns down New York’s mean streets and along the Hamptons beaches and back roads during a bitterly cold and gray winter where nothing is as it seems and everyone has something to hide. In this inventive “serial novel” storytelling approach, each of the twenty bestselling writers brings his or her distinctive voice to a chapter of Inherit the Dead, building the tension to a shocking, explosive finale. The editor, Jonathan Santlofer, has arranged to donate any royalties in excess of editor and contributor compensation to Safe Horizon, the leading victim assistance agency in the country.
