Set in post WWII Ireland, this retelling of the Biblical story of Ruth is an incredible love story . . . with a twist. Elderly Sarah returns to her hometown of Adare, Ireland with her daughter-in-law, Anna. The suffering that World War II brought them was unimaginable, but they still have each other. With all their loved ones killed in the war, the two women have nothing but a hope that one distant relative will help them. Will this new beginning bring the healing that both of them have prayed for? With the Biblical love story of Ruth weaved into the novel, incredible moments of passionate faith are gleaned from the pages. Unforgettable, human characters bring humor and sweetness to the sweeping Irish backdrop. With heart-pounding suspense, romance, and mystery tied up in one, A Little Irish Love Story details the life of a heroic young woman and the love of her life. With a turn in the novel that the reader never suspects, Anna finds the truth about her life—that she is loved beyond what she could have ever imagined.
Female Stars of British Cinema

Release Date: 2017-07-07
Film stars are often seen as a Hollywood creation but this book explores how British cinema developed its own culture of stardom, and how its female stars have been prized by audiences worldwide. Female Stars of British Cinema uses case studies of seven female stars whose careers span the 1940s to the present day - Jean Kent, Diana Dors, Rita Tushingham, Glenda Jackson, Helena Bonham Carter, Emily Lloyd, and Judi Dench - to explore how British star femininities have developed over time, and how the image of the British female star has responded to broader social and cultural changes. These 'women in question' offer a way into the complexities of British cinema's culture of stardom which has sometimes espoused glamour and sometimes rejected it, and is entangled with issues of regional, national and ethnic identity, as well as class, sexuality and age. Exploring and investigating the variety of British star femininities over the last seventy-five years, this book also interrogates the omissions and absences from that same cinematic firmament.

One summer, one night, one mistake, and everything changes for Eve and Juliette Nicholas. For the Nicholas twins, life is just beginning, until one summer of misguided love forces the twins to doubt everything they’ve ever believed. Eve and Juliette are the daughters of a preacher, raised to hold love in high esteem, although they may disagree on how to share it. As high school graduation looms, they must question the cost of love, and what it may mean for their futures. The summer of 1968 is one of change for both the Nicholas twins and the nation. With Martin Luther King, Jr.’s speech fresh in everyone’s minds, racial tensions are high and threaten to shake the very foundation that once held the twins together. Through it all, will the bond that Eve and Juliette share be broken? Can love truly endure all things? Or will their mistakes always haunt them? Set during a time of racial instability, When Waves Break sheds light on the equality and redemption we all have in Christ.
