Deborah Smith's is one of the most imaginative and appealing new voices in Southern fiction. In the tradition of Fried Green Tomatoes, the nationally bestselling author offers a deliciously original new novel that will make you laugh one moment and then move you to tears--an irresistible Southern saga that chronicles a love as innocent as a child's and as powerful as that of two star-crossed lovers can be.
"I planned to be the kind of old Southern lady who talks to her tomato plants and buys sweaters for her cats. I'd be deliberately peculiar. I'd wear bright red lipstick and tell embarrassing true stories about my family, and people would say, I heard she was always a little funny, if you know what I mean. They wouldn't understand why, and I didn't intend to tell them."
At thirty, Claire Maloney knows her life has become a major-league wreck. And she knows why it all started falling apart, too. Because Roan Sullivan was banished from Dunderry, Georgia, twenty years ago, and Claire hasn't heard from him since. She was only ten then, and Roan fifteen, but what happened to the two of them is the stuff of local legend, as vivid and dramatic as anything can be in a small town where people hoard sad stories as carefully as their great-grandmother's china.
Back then, Roan Sullivan lived in a trailer amid junked cars and rusted tin cans, while Claire was the willful, pampered young daughter of the town's most respected family. So no one--least of all her parents--understood the bond that tied her to the fierce, motherless boy who had to fight every day for his place in the world. But Roan and Claire didn't choose one another; they belonged together, as involuntarily and permanently as the soil and the seed from which the foxgloves grew on the side of Dunshinnog Mountain. They were simply a part of the place, and a part of each other.
Until the dark afternoon when violence and terror overtook them, and Roan disappeared from Claire's life. Now, twenty years later, Claire is adrift, and the Maloneys are still hoping the past can be buried forever under the rich Southern earth. But Roan Sullivan is about to walk back into their lives.
By turns tender and sexy and heartbreaking and exuberant, A Place to Call Home is an unforgettable journey between two hearts. It is a book to read, and reread, and cherish.
>A Place to Call Home has the magic of great storytelling.

Only the most peculiar fate could link the star-crossed Ricconni family of New York with the dirt-poor Powells of the Georgia mountains. Little do Ursula Powell and Quentin Ricconni know that a strange and abstract iron sculpture of a bear will draw them together. They have nothing in common except the power that the Bear has in both their lives. The sculpture, which now sits in the backyard of Ursulas secluded mountain farm, is worth a fortune. When Quentin leaves New York for the small Southern town to reclaim his fathers sculpture, what he discovers is that when it comes to the heart, to destiny, to fate, the price paid cannot be measured in millions. Deb Smith has more than 1.5 million copies in print of her previous novels, including the bestselling A Place to Call Home. Like Rosamund Pilcher and Anne Rivers Siddons, Deb Smith is a master of mainstream womens fiction.

Deborah Smith continues her bestselling tradition with a love story about a woman whose life is thrown into chaos when her son elopes with the President's daughter. The sorrows and secrets of Hush McGillen's life are as deeply rooted as the famed Sweet Hush apple orchards her family has tended for more than a century. As a devoted mother, young widow, and successful businesswoman, Hush has worked hard to restore her family's farming fortunes. At the same time, she has tried to hide the truth about her late husband and their tormented marriage from her son, Davis. Now Davis suddenly returns home from college to tell his mother he has eloped with a fellow student, and to Hush's horror, the eyes of the entire world turn to her family and her private, guarded life--because her son's new wife is the rebellious daughter of the President of the United States. Delivering the warmth, humor, and unforgettable characters that her millions of readers have come to expect, Deborah Smith gives us a passionate, page-turning story about a surprising, unexpected love.
