New Release Books by Gayle Friesen

Gayle is compelled to return to her childhood home where her modern family life clashes with her parents' traditional Mennonite life.

Everyone she knows has a different point of view on love, but one thing is certain: for Jes, love is never predictable, always confusing, and may hurt sometimes, in the sequel to Losing Forever.

Jes struggles to balance her life, dealing with her mother's second marriage, her devious soon-to-be stepsister Angela, and her best friend's lovesick behavior.

In this novel by Gayle Friesen, by turns hilarious and touching, a summer at camp changes everything -- and a young woman learns to be herself.

Fifteen-year-old Ben thinks he has no choice but to leave his dance classes after his friends tease him about it, but when Great-Aunt Frieda comes for a visit and shares an important story, his feelings are forever changed.

Friesen tells an involving story about a girl trying to find out about her family's past and shows her reactions as she meets people and learns more about her heritage. The main character, Claire, learns about her family, makes some important decisions, stands up to her overbearing mother, and comes to know her father and half-brother.
