One winner is eligible to win a signed paperback copy of Rock Bottom Rising And Poinsettia Girl. Rock Bottom Rising information: Ruby has nothing left—no money, no friends, and a devastating felony conviction for larceny that follows her like a shadow. Cast out and betrayed, she makes the bravest choice of her life: to fight her way back to the children she loves, no matter the cost. Against the sweeping backdrop of the Great Depression, World War II, the Tennessee Valley Authority, and the Manhattan Project, Ruby’s journey unfolds as a powerful portrait of grit, sacrifice, and redemption. Based on the true story of the author’s grandmother, this biographical historical fiction novel explores the enduring force of a mother’s love—and the painful choices required to reclaim a life worth living. Poinsettia Girl information: The Story of Agata della Pieta (Author Jennifer Wizbowski) Venice, 1710, Poinsettia Girl is based on the story of Agata de la Pieta, an orphan musician of the Ospedale de la Pieta. Ten-year-old Agata's world is shaken at the sudden death of her mother. Left only with her egregious father, a working musician in Venice, her ailing grandmother sends her to the well-known orphanage, hidden from everything she's ever known. Agata auditions for the conservatory style music school where music is both salvation and spectacle. Hidden behind ornate metal grates, adorned with poinsettias in their hair, the singers are veiled in mystery, their ethereal music drawing noble audiences, including gilded young men who see them as treasures-not only for their sound but as coveted marriage prizes. Just as she reaches the height of her musical journey, a marriage proposal from someone outside the audience tempts her with the promise of a new life-a return to the old neighborhood she's longed for and a home she barely remembers. Torn between the music that has defined her and the hope of belonging to a family, Agata must confront the most profound question of her life: is her purpose rooted in the music that shaped her, or in the love that might free her?
