"Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish.

Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read. Page after page of bone-chilling admissions, including Verity's recollection of what really happened the day her daughter died.
​

Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents would devastate the already grieving father. But as Lowen's feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife's words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth this horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue to love her."

2021 North Manchester Public Library Cards

3/29/2021

0 Comments

 
"A library card is the start of a lifelong adventure." Lillian Jackson Braun

We couldn't agree more and nothing would make us happier than helping you embark on that adventure!  We have a number of options for anyone who would like to borrow from the thousands of books, magazines, newspapers, DVDs, CDs, and kits we have available here at NMPL.  (Of course, simply enjoying things at the library is an option even without a card, but it is so much fun to take things home!)  

We have a number of free library card options but even the non-resident card option is a steal at $84 a year!  For the equivalent of 6 pictures books OR 5 newly released DVDs OR 4 best selling hardcovers OR 2 seasons of your favorite TV show OR 1 newspaper subscription you have access to thousands of titles in a variety of genres every day.

"Having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card." Marc Brown

So stop in today and let us get you set up with your very own card! Need more information? Visit our How To Get A Library Card page to get started!

Today: Cook a Book - Preserved Lemons

3/26/2021

We're making Preserved Lemons at todays Cook a Book program at 11am on Facebook! If you’re one of those people who’s always been able to eat lemons straight - you’ll love this recipe. And if you’re one of those people who can’t even imagine, well, we still think you’ll like this recipe!

Who wouldn’t love to jazz up their next roast chicken with these sunny slices? Or make Fettuccine with Preserved Lemon and Roasted Garlic for dinner? Or just have a jar of tangy salty goodness on hand for whenever a dish needs a little kick?

Gather organic/unsprayed lemons (3 pounds), salt, cardamom pods, bay leaves, and lemon juice and follow along as we preserve from Alana Chernila’s The Homemade Kitchen.
