Paperback. Condizione: Good. Clara found her footing in the shadows of the Hotel Hamilton. Her sister has spent the months since trying to claw her way back into the spotlight.Vancouver, 1927. Five years after their mother's death, Clara and Louisa Wilson are still finding their way - one content to disappear into her work, the other counting the days until she's back on a stage instead of scrubbing someone else's bathtub.Clara has found a strange comfort in staying small. So when the hotel matron begins grooming her for more responsibility, it unsettles her more than it excites her. Louisa, meanwhile, is done waiting to be noticed - but stepping back into the spotlight means facing the very thing that drove her out of it in the first place.When cruelty and prejudice test the fragile balance the sisters have built - inside the hotel and beyond - Clara and Louisa are forced to reckon with how differently they've each learned to survive. One sister disappears. The other performs. Neither is entirely sure anymore which version of herself is real.This isn't a story that rushes toward answers. Like the first, it unfolds in quiet moments - a shift change, a rehearsal, a walk home in the dark - where the real reckoning happens.For readers who know that some of the bravest things a woman does are the quiet ones.Meet Me at the Clock is Book 2 in the Hotel Hamilton Series, continuing Clara and Louisa's story from Welcome to the Hamilton. If you love sister stories with real friction, richly drawn 1920s settings, and women finding their own kind of courage, this one's for you.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Not all of war's destruction takes place on the battlefield. Violet's heart flutters from the scarlet fever she survived as a child, and it beats faster at the sight of John Smith, the man she plans to marry. America is entrenched in WI, and when John enlists, Violet is certain she won't ever forgive him for dashing their dreams. As the realities of war slowly overtake her life, Violet's days are filled with uncertainty and grief. She struggles to maintain her faith in John, as the world as she knows it, crumbles. Becoming Mrs. Smith is the inspiring, and at times, heartbreaking story of a woman's struggle to reclaim what she lost. War stole the man she loves, and childhood illness weakened her heart-perhaps beyond repair. While guns rage in Europe, the war Violet faces at home may be even more devastating.…

Sixteen-year-old Calla Smith, the oldest of five, is done waiting for her father to notice what her stepmother has turned their home into. She's worked and raised her younger siblings since before she was old enough to hold a broom, counting down the years until she's gone for good. When the money set aside for her future is quietly shifted to her younger brothers, so is her only way out.Fifteen years earlier, in South Dakota, a grieving young widower named John Smith remarried, certain it would save his family. It didn't. And by the time John understands what's happening inside his own home, the damage has already reached his children.A Man Called Smith moves between Calla's account of the years she survived and John's account of the years he let slip past him-two versions of the same family, standing on opposite sides of the silence. It's a story about what a father's inaction costs a daughter, and what a woman raised to expect nothing can still build for herself.This book is for you if: You want a family saga that spans decades.You're reading for the daughter who survives it, not the father who almost destroys it.You enjoy endings that are honest and relatable rather than easy.A Man Called Smith is a women's historical fiction novel and the third book in the Smith Family Saga-though, like its predecessors, it stands complete on its own. …
