As German bombs fall over London in 1940, working-class parents Millie and Reginald Thompson make an impossible choice: they decide to send their eleven-year-old daughter, Beatrix, to America, where they hope she&rsquo;ll stay safe.Bea arrives in Boston to meet the Gregorys, who fold her into their world. Before long, life in America feels more natural to her than her quiet, spare world back in England. The girl she had been begins to fade away until she is called home to London when the war ends.As she returns to London, the memory of her American family stays with her, never fully letting her go as she tries to move on, pursuing love and a life of her own.Following Bea over time, navigating between her two worlds, Beyond That, the Sea emerges as a beautifully written, absorbing novel, full of grace and heartache, forgiveness and understanding, loss and love.&ldquo;Spence-Ash has written the novel in eight points of view, but each character is utterly three-dimensional and distinct. This debut novel captivated me from start to finish." -- Julia Quinn, author of the Bridgerton Series&ldquo;The plot of Laura Spence-Ash&rsquo;s BEYOND THAT, THE SEA is rooted in the home-front upheavals of World War II, but it&rsquo;s also a timeless exploration of what it means to create a family, of how dreams can die and be reborn in surprising ways.&rdquo; -- The New York TimesLaura Spence-Ash&rsquo;s debut novel, Beyond That, the Sea, was published by Celadon Books in March 2023. Laura&rsquo;s short fiction has appeared in One Story, New England Review, Crazyhorse, and elsewhere.

Riley Rhodes finally has the chance to turn her family&rsquo;s knack for the supernatural into a legitimate business when she&rsquo;s hired to break the curse on an infamous Scottish castle. Used to working alone in her alienating occupation, she's pleasantly surprised to meet a handsome stranger upon arrival&mdash;until he tries to get her&nbsp;fired. Fresh off a professional scandal, Clark Edgeware can&rsquo;t allow a self-proclaimed &ldquo;curse breaker&rdquo; to threaten his last chance for redemption. After he fails to get Riley kicked off his survey site, he vows to avoid her. Unfortunately for him, she vows to get even. Riley expects the curse to do her dirty work by driving Clark away, but instead, they keep finding themselves in close proximity. Too close. Turns out, the only thing they do better than fight is fool around. If they&rsquo;re not careful, by the end of all this, more than the castle will end up in ruins.<p style="margin-bottom:0px;padding-top:10px;padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;box-sizing:border-box;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5rem;color:#6f7287;font-family:'Neue Plak', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;background-color:#ffffff;"> <p style="margin-bottom:0px;padding-top:10px;padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;box-sizing:border-box;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5rem;color:#6f7287;font-family:'Neue Plak', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;background-color:#ffffff;">&ldquo;Rosie Danan&rsquo;s Do Your Worst has that rarest of tropes: an enemies-to-lovers pairing that is perfectly, lusciously balanced.&rdquo;&mdash;New York Times Book Review<p style="margin-bottom:0px;padding-top:10px;padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;box-sizing:border-box;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5rem;color:#6f7287;font-family:'Neue Plak', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;background-color:#ffffff;">&ldquo;Danan is on our short list of must-reads, for every new and established romance reader.
