Betsy Schow Books in Order

Schow recounts how a weight-loss goal led her to reconsider a lifetime of abandoned ambitions. Her memoir connects persistence and self-perception with a personal philosophy of finishing, describing how completing one difficult undertaking encouraged her to pursue others.

Hallie arrives in a Montana town to settle her estranged husband's estate, immediately colliding with local gossip and small-town complications. Help from an attractive mayor introduces romance, but his own troubles force her to reconsider leaving once her business is finished.

Princess Dorthea wishes away an unwanted future, only to unleash a curse that overturns her kingdom and sends her parents to Kansas. With Prince Kato, she seeks the Wizard of Oz before a dangerous witch ends the world of Story.

Drawing on her own experience with unfinished goals, Schow presents practical suggestions for maintaining momentum after initial excitement fades. Humor and personal anecdotes accompany ideas about planning, motivation, rewards, and completing projects rather than repeatedly starting over.

Robin Hood's daughter Rexi refuses to remain a disposable sidekick in Princess Dorthea's story. Facing a curse that could erase her existence, she seeks Excalibur's power to write her own future while new villains gather in Camelot.

Stranded in Kansas, Dorthea struggles to remember her past and find a way home. Back in Story, Rexi uses Excalibur to challenge the Wicked Witch, with their kingdom and the prince both girls love caught in the conflict.
