Nellie Wallace is a young widow with two children. In post civil-war New York, the men are scarce and none want the burden of a wife with children. Her dead husband's family is wealthy, and cruel. Desperate to escape their influence, and eager for a home, a husband, and a stable life for her children, Nellie decides to make a new life in San Francisco as a mail order bride.

Saloon owner Blake Malone is a bachelor and likes it that way. He worked hard for everything he has, but the San Francisco City Council won’t approve his plans to build a family emporium unless he is a family man himself. The solution? A mail order bride from New York who will bring him a ready-made family, stability, and the council's approval.

Blake expects his future wife to care for his home and, other than helping him impress the city council, to stay out of his business. He expects life as usual. What he gets is an unexpected desire to win Nellie's heart, a dangerous threat to his new bride, and a rich benefactor determined to steal his new family out from under him. Blake believed his battle for success a hard one. But he will discover that the battle to win Nellie's heart and keep his family safe is going to take everything he's got.

Leah Kate is a rising singer-songwriter based in New York City. Not too long ago, she released a music video for her “Do What I Wanna Do” single.

‘Do What I Wanna Do’ tells an interesting tale of a young woman who wants to get into a relationship with a guy who she desires to be with.

Even though there might be some consequences involved in them being together, she still insists that they should push forward and take their changes.

‘Do What I Wanna Do’ contains a relatable storyline, ear-welcoming vocals, and club-friendly instrumentation scented with an electric-dance fragrance.

Leah Kate’s sound fits somewhere in between the musical realms of King Princess and Charlotte Lawrence.

Having grown up with a family in media and submerged in the entertainment industry, the bubbly entertainer quickly found herself under enormous pressure.

That’s when she decided to escape to New York City, where she discovered her creative fulfillment and flourished into who she is today.

Having read ÒMe Before YouÓ and cried, ÒAfter YouÓ and laughed, I was heavily anticipating how this third novel would make me feel. It follows our hapless heroine Louisa Clark to New York and a job assisting the uber-rich Gopniks. Lou is in a new city, with a new life but trying to maintain a long-distance relationship with her English boyfriend. Putting her lead character in all manner of new situations, Moyes shows the quirky, humorous side of Louisa balanced with her optimism and charm. The big question is, will Louisa Clark finally find happiness and live happily ever after? This is bound to be made into a movie, grab your tissues and read all three books first.
  
Stella and Nick Buckley have traded in life in New York City for a small town in Vermont. But when they arrive at their new home, they find a dead man in their well. Since they can't move in until the murder is solved, they dig in to catch the killer themselves. I enjoyed this debut, especially the main characters. Unfortunately, I felt the momentum in the beginning was slowed down by back story that could have been slipped in better later.

With the new single Tough Love from Molly Moore we get attitude and some badass groove. Molly Moore has been paying the bills writing hits for artists like Felix Cartal and DubVision ever since her early days in New York City. Now based in Los Angeles she is moving sonically into a more experimental production style and looking to build on the success of her debut EP Shadow of the Sun.

Moore discusses her plan to push her sound a bit closer to Banks and London Grammar; we think she has already found a place between Annie Lennox and Jamie Lidell.
