SUMMARY:MN Author Event: Tom Peart
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an MN Author Event with Tom Peart!! \nAbout the Book:\nWhen it comes to a career in coaching sports\, there is no teaching without doing—and practice doesn’t just make perfect\, it makes a whole life. \nIn this heartfelt memoir\, first-time author Thomas H. Peart recounts the story of his experiences growing up in Alexandria\, Minnesota\, playing hockey\, joining the US Marine Corps\, attending college\, and eventually entering a lengthy and impressive career as a coach for high school\, college\, and professional hockey—both stateside and overseas—alongside a number of other sports. \nBeginning in childhood and throughout his life\, all the way up to the moment of his authoring this very book\, Peart’s career as a coach is a testament to the value of learning through experience\, teaching with care and respect\, and always remaining open to opportunity. \nA satisfying slice of life in the postwar American Midwest\, this book will make a great addition to the shelves of Peart’s contemporaries\, as well as anyone interested in the worlds of amateur and professional sports. Because those who do\, teach—and those who teach\, do.

SUMMARY:MN Author Event: Diane Kasulis
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an MN Author Event with Diane Kasulis!! \nAbout the Book:\nCassie Klein thinks there is something wrong with her – she just doesn’t know what. Eager to become a wife; a mother; whole – she says “I do” and then her life falls apart. Convinced that she can not achieve intimacy with anyone\, she is doomed to be alone forever – a poster child for all the cat ladies of the world. Afraid to trust another relationship. \nWhen a trip to her mother’s attic triggers a partial bad memory\, she realizes she was molested by her 5th grade teacher\, before she left the town of Waterford. She wasn’t the only one. She tries to find the girl\, Alyssa\, only to discover\, Alyssa went went missing and has never been found. Only Cassie knows who is responsible. When she learns that her former teacher is about to receive an award presented by the Governor\, she must return to let the good people of Waterford know exactly who it is that they are honoring. Her only hope is a lone sheriff’s deputy Keith Malone who patrols the town. \nBut that is the problem. He has a past of his own and reopening a twenty year old cold case is the very last thing he wants to do. On administrative leave indefinitely from the Minneapolis Police department\, he is more than content to hide in Waterford where crime there is almost unheard of. He decides that Cassie is just a woman with a chip on her shoulder. Not worth his time. Case closed. \nAs Keith is being pushed by his boss to investigate the case\, this forces him to have to work with Cassie. They team up to be the most unlikely pair to unravel events surrounding the disappearance of Cassie’s classmate. Cassie must learn to trust Keith\, and overcome her fears of being close to him. \nTogether they will need to figure our what happened to Alyssa before the town completes the construction of a bike path that will pave over the crime scene\, and hide her teachers’ secret forever.
