Bellamy Mitchell is a meticulous planner. When her old flame returns to Cedar Point engaged, blowing apart her vision for the future, she claims to have a serious boyfriend. The problem? The first single guy she can think of is her brother's much older, closed-off best friend. Rusty Fuller likes to keep people at a distance. He's been through enough to know that letting anyone too close is a mistake, unless it's only for a little fun. What he definitely doesn't need is his best friend's little sister turning him into anyone's boyfriend, especially her own. For some reason, helping Bellamy is a challenge Rusty can't refuse, and he develops a reluctant soft spot for the woman beloved by everyone in town. She's too young, too innocent, but also too hard to resist. So he promises himself this fake dating gig is just that: fake. When Rusty and Bellamy find more in each other than either of them expected, they're faced with a difficult question. Is what they share too flawed to be real? Or did they stumble upon their own kind of perfect?

Ruby Roberts is heading to Cedar Point to connect with the father who left her behind. A handsome stranger on her cross-country flight isn't what she's expecting, but their relaxed smiles and easy conversation leaves free-spirited Ruby wanting something... more.

Neither of them are expecting to find a romance that has them both reconsidering everything they believe about love. As their time in Cedar Point comes to an end, the two will have to decide whether they want their connection to turn into a real-world relationship, or whether wanting more is nothing but trouble.

His Grace Abba Raphael's Master's thesis, which is on the Economy of Salvation According to the Early Church from a Biblical, Patristic, liturgical and canonical standpoint, came at a time in which erroneous teachings were circulating; teachings which are foreign to our mother Church; teachings which are at odds with Holy Scriptures, the saintly Early Fathers, and all who have taught us throughout history. His Grace began responding to some of these erroneous teachings, which are strange to our Coptic Orthodox Church, and expounded at length the topic of "Economy of Salvation."

Jill Mceldowney's Otherlight plunges us into the rarefied limbo of grief. Suspended in time, in action, in ice, its speaker is halfway out the door of this world-is half-turned to follow the beloved who hovers, conjured, just at the edges of these pages. Otherlight's iconoclasm is arresting and terrifying; it rejects the advances of a world that refuses to understand that sometimes the past is a mine we never want to be hauled from. In these lyrical, annihilating poems, Mceldowney shows us how a life can be utterly derailed by a death; how even after a lightning-struck past, choosing to stay alive can be the biggest risk of all.-Claire Wahmanholm, author of Meltwater and Wilder¿¿Otherlight beams its lantern light from the mouth of a cavernous grief. As we descend, Jill Mceldowney guides us through a liminal space only the loss of a beloved can forge, a world where the past and future continually collapse and distort, a purgatory of questions, a guilt that is '-terrible to survive / and surviving is never over.' These poems are raw as an exposed nerve in their exploration of addiction and precise in their portrayal of the jagged contours of depression: 'I pretend like I'm living.' There are 'rivers that children wade into / and do not return from as children,' insomniac nights that stretch into endless days. But this collection is also proof that there is power in naming the beast, even if it can't be tamed, even if its teeth are still bared." -Ruth Awad, author of Set to Music a Wildfire
