Here are a few of the new books that have arrived at the library recently. We invite you to check them out!

The Heirloom

After her widowed father remarries, 19 year old Clara Bender is no longer needed to help run his household. Marriage seems like her best hope of moving out, but there are few men in her Indiana Amish community. When she comes across letters from her mother’s aunt Ella Mae Zook, she sets off to visit Hickory Hollow to decide where her future lies. Ella Mae is not quite ready to move from the farmhouse where she and her recently deceased husband spent over fifty happy years, making Clara’s visit seem like an answer to prayer. But when the unexpected happens, will Clara find where her heart truly belongs?

The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons

Change is coming to Sweden’s far north: its untapped natural resources are sparking a gold rush with the criminal underworld leading the charge. But it’s not the prospect of riches that brings Lisbeth Salander to the small town of Gasskas. She has been named guardian to her niece Svala, whose mother has disappeared. Two things soon become clear: Svala is a remarkably gifted teenager—and she’s being watched. A pulse-pounding thriller, The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons sees Salander and Mikael Blomkvist navigating a world of conspiracy and betrayal, old enemies and new friends, ice-bound wilderness and the global corporations that threaten to tear it apart.

Highland Conquest

Cain Sinclair has a plan. In order to bring peace to his clan, he will wed the young female chief of their greatest enemy. Only problem: capturing her and forcing her back to Sinclair castle doesn’t exactly make her want to say yes. Ella Sutherland may be clever, passionate, and shockingly beautiful, but what she isn’t is willing. Every attempt Cain makes to woo her seems to backfire on him. A gift? The kitten practically claws his eyes out. A competitive game of chess? Even when he wins, he loses. It seems the only time the two ever see eye to eye is when they’re heating up Cain’s bed. Still, the only thing Ella truly wants is the one thing he cannot offer her: freedom.
