IF THIS IS FREEDOM<br />

WESLEY, GLORIA ANN<br />

If This Is Freedom continues the story of struggle for Loyalist settlers in Nova Scotia after the American<br />

Revolutionary War. In the black settlement of Birchtown, times are especially hard for the former slaves.<br />

They face the difficulties of a hardscrabble existence and continued discrimination from their white<br />

counterparts. Like many desperate Birchtowners, Sarah Redmond has signed an indenture agreement, a<br />

work contract meant to protect her rights and ensure a living wage. Sarah’s employers, the Blyes, do not<br />

honour the agreement, and Sarah and her family are all but shattered when Sarah takes a wrong step —<br />

one she will come to regret as it sets off a chain of unusual events that put her under further pressure.<br />

With her faith in the settlement running dry and the Birchtowners abandoning the settlement, Sarah is<br />

perplexed and soon faces the taxing option of whether to hold on to the only real life she has ever known<br />

or let go.<br />

THE INFINITE MOMENT OF US<br />

MYRACLE, LAUREN<br />

For as long as she can remember, Wren Gray’s goal has been to please her parents. But as high school<br />

graduation nears, so does an uncomfortable realization: Pleasing her parents once overlapped with<br />

pleasing herself, but now . . . not so much. Wren needs to honor her own desires, but how can she if she<br />

doesn’t even know what they are? Charlie Parker, on the other hand, is painfully aware of his heart’s<br />

desire. A gentle boy with a troubled past, Charlie has loved Wren since the day he first saw her. But a girl<br />

like Wren would never fall for a guy like Charlie—at least not the sort of guy Charlie believes himself to<br />

be. And yet certain things are written in the stars. And in the summer after high school, Wren and<br />

Charlie’s souls will collide. But souls are complicated, as are the bodies that house them . . .<br />

INHERITANCE<br />

LO, MALINDA<br />

Reese and David are not normal teens--not since they were adapted with alien DNA by the Imria, an<br />

extraterrestrial race that has been secretly visiting Earth for decades. Now everyone is trying to get to<br />

them: the government, the Imria, and a mysterious corporation that would do anything for the upper hand<br />

against the aliens. Beyond the web of conspiracies, Reese can't reconcile her love for David with her<br />

feelings for her ex-girlfriend Amber, an Imrian. But her choice between two worlds will play a critical role in<br />

determining the future of humanity, the Imria's place in it, and the inheritance she and David will bring to<br />

the universe.<br />
