Patrick knew from the moment he climbed out of his car and heard the music blasting from the back of the cabin what he would find... his sister was painting. And considering her choice of music, there was every possibility that what filled her canvas wasn't meant to soothe the soul. Claire Andersen Slavik was exactly where she needed to be. The last couple of years had been good ones even if at times filled with difficult moments. She had moved in with her mother when it was obvious she was needed. And never had a single regret for doing so. There had been days filled with joy and others with heartbreak. Now her mother was gone and the world she'd known had once again shifted out of balance. Claire was determined to take this time like a stolen moment to come to grips with the change in her life that the loss of her mother had made. It didn't matter that her kids called almost every day. She understood. But she needed this time away. The quiet and the peace that this little heaven on earth allowed her... and at the same time forced her to face this new void in her life honestly. Little did she know that her peace and tranquility was about to be disrupted. Her solitude on the brink of collapse. Patrick Andersen had a lot to think about as he drove through the mountains of Arkansas. There was even more floating around in his mind that he wanted to say to his sister Claire now that he and his brother knew where she was.

Will the youngest of Livia Andersen's grown children find the tranquility she seeks in the mountains of Arkansas? Can she make her brother understand the reasons for the choices she's made and the secrets she'd kept? Will the ...

Rise: A Collection Inspired by Lift by Rebecca K. O'Connor (22 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

In celebration of the Kindle version release of LIFT, an award-winning falconry memoir, author Rebecca K. O'Connor shares a complementary collection of essays, short stories and poetry that further examines life in the shadow of a raptor's wings. LIFT, Rebecca K. O'Connor's arresting memoir of love, loss, relationships and one impossible peregrine falcon is further illuminated with this collection of writings on the world of falconry. The opening short story, "A Good Falconer Lets Go," about a teenage boy and his red-tailed hawk is a classic coming-of-age tale with a falconry twist. If you are a dog lover, "Heart to Tear" and "About a Dog", essays which read like O'Connor's love songs to the dogs of falconry will resonate with you, if not evoke a few tears. In short essays such as "The Knife" and "Storytelling" O'Connor explores early moments in falconry in the icy-clear voice readers grew to love in LIFT. The collection also includes a glossary on falconry and a bonus excerpt of her novel in progress, a post-apocalyptic wilderness adventure. If you have read LIFT and loved it, this short collection will add to your experience. If you've yet to read O'Connor's writing, RISE may encourage you to read more. ~~Praise for LIFT~~ **Novelist and nature reference author O'Connor (Falcon's Return) crafts a lyrical tribute to the spiritual connection between humans and birds in this memoir of the excruciating, transformative process of training a peregrine falcon: "Falconry is a religion, a way of thinking, a means of experiencing life." Indeed, readers will find almost as much spiritual content as natural. Despite O'Connor's icy-clear voice, her descriptions of training a young male falcon are fascinating for bird lovers and civilians alike: "when the falcon connects a high-speed dive... the duck remains a piece of the sky and only its body careens to earth." Surprisingly, periodic flashbacks to a troubled childhood -- an abusive stepfather, an absentee mother -- ...
