Come Join American Fork Barnes and Noble to help welcome Local Author Jason A Anderson June 29th @3PM.

If you love horrifying adventures and kick-butt lead characters, then this is the perfect book.We'll see you there... If you dare.Jean Archer: The Diamond in the Rough&nbsp;Meet Jean...a fiery, headstrong, redheaded ghost chaser that co-leads PASS, the Paranormal and Supernatural Society, in Shadow Valley, a winter resort town in the Northwest USA. Life there is like any other that caters to the seasonal whims of skiers during the winter and tourists' off-season. Despite spending their time creeping through the dark nooks and deep shadows of the 100+ year-old community, their insatiable craving for the supernatural and paranormal has rarely been satisfied. Things are about to change...Shadow Valley holds more than its share of secrets. Odd storms and Jean's intense dreams cast an air of foreboding over the biggest of PASS's investigations: that of the decaying halls of local legendarily haunted asylum, Knoll Mansion. A malevolent Entity lurks in its shadows, feeding on the life essence of the lost, the unwary and the reckless. It waits to play on the PASS team's deepest fears. Will the revelation of Jean's Guardian Angel, Valera, and the young woman's mysterious past be enough to protect her loved ones from the coming chaos?

I am not one of them. But like the coyote I can become at will, I am adaptable. My name is Mercy Thompson Hauptman, and my mate, Adam, is the werewolf who leads the Columbia Basin Pack, the pack charged with keeping the people who live and work in the Tri-Cities of Washington State safe. It&rsquo;s a hard job, and it doesn&rsquo;t leave much room for side quests. Which is why when I needed to travel to Montana to help my brother, I intended to go by myself.But I&rsquo;m not alone anymore.Together, Adam and I find ourselves trapped with strangers in a lodge in the heart of the wilderness, in the teeth of a storm of legendary power, only to discover my brother&rsquo;s issues are a tiny part of a problem&nbsp;much bigger than we could have imagined. Arcane and ancient magics are at work that could, unless we are very careful, bring about the end of the world. . . .About the Author<img alt="About The Author" src="https://prodimage.images-bn.com/lf?set=key%5Bresolve.pixelRatio%5D,value%5B1%5D&amp;set=key%5Bresolve.width%5D,value%5B300%5D&amp;set=key%5Bresolve.height%5D,value%5B10000%5D&amp;set=key%5Bresolve.imageFit%5D,value%5Bcontainerwidth%5D&amp;set=key%5Bresolve.allowImageUpscaling%5D,value%5B0%5D&amp;set=key%5Bresolve.format%5D,value%5Bwebp%5D&amp;product=path%5B/cimages/0000000364342_p0_v1%5D&amp;call=url%5Bfile:common/decodeProduct.chain%5D" />Patricia Briggs<span style="border:0px;font-variant-numeric:inherit;font-variant-east-asian:inherit;font-variant-alternates:inherit;font-variant-position:inherit;font-size:14.6667px;line-height:inherit;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;font-optical-sizing:inherit;font-kerning:inherit;font-feature-settings:inherit;font-variation-settings:inherit;margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background-color:white !important;">&nbsp;is the #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of the Mercy Thompson urban fantasy series (Soul Taken,&nbsp;Smoke Bitten) and the Alpha and Omega novels (Wild Sign,&nbsp;Burn Bright).

Come Join Barnes and Noble American Fork and celebrate Mother's Day Saturday May 11th @3PM with a signing from Local Author Wendy Hooton!Big People Don't Pee in the ParkWhat do you do when you have life planned out and a tiny chromosome rewrites your story?"We think your baby has Down syndrome" may not be the words a mother wants to hear hours after giving birth-at least I didn't. I went from that beautiful new-mommy feeling to feeling cheated of the experience the other moms who'd delivered that day were having. What did this mean for my baby? For me? For our family? How would my future play out?At a time meant to be joyous, I found myself undergoing a whirlwind of emotions, my head and my heart battling with each other. In my head, that tiny chromosome overturned my world, wreaking havoc on all the dreams I had for this little life I had created. In my heart, I felt an intense, unconditional love when cradling my precious new baby. Soon thereafter, I realized I would have to take it one day at a time, which is all anyone can do when faced with an unexpected diagnosis. My head and heart eventually became one, and the journey I have been on, although unpredictable, is one I wouldn't trade for anything. Our lives have been filled with challenges, yes, but also with lots of love, happiness, and a ton of free stuff. Seriously! Everyone my son interacts with is impacted by his outgoing, fun-loving personality. In reading our story, you'll experience my transition from shock and fear to&nbsp;extraordinary&nbsp;joy. Mostly, you will see that living with an extra chromosome is a nonstop party.
