Sue Collins | scollins@lifestylepubs.com MARKET AREA ADMINISTRATOR

Hello friends, THANK YOU FOR PICKING UP THE MAGAZINE THIS MONTH AND SPENDING A FEW MINUTES WITH US. As always, we work to bring you stories about people and places in Buckhead and Brookhaven that make us smile.

I won’t lie, it’s been challenging to find balance as we are bombarded with hard news that makes our hearts break. We’re waiting for answers. We are looking for justice. We are hunting for the perfect mask, hoping our eyes are smiling so the checkout clerks can see we are appreciative and positive since our smiles are hidden.

THE GIRL FROM WIDOW HILLS BY MEGAN MIRANDA As a young girl, Arden Maynor was safely found days after sleepwalking away from home. The infamy of the story overshadows her life until she relocates and changes her name. Now, the twentieth anniversary of her rescue is approaching and she’s sleepwalking again. One night she awakens in her yard, with a body at her feet— the corpse of a man she knew in her previous life as Arden Maynor.

HOME BEFORE DARK BY RILEY SAGER Twenty-five years after her family fled Baneberry Hall in the middle of the night, Maggie Holt inherits the sprawling estate. Skeptical and too young to remember her time in the house, Maggie is determined to simply restore and sell the home. As she pursues her project, she begins to believe her father’s stories—and what she uncovers is more terrifying than any haunting.

ALICE KNOTT BY BLAKE BUTLER After several pieces of artwork are stolen from Alice Knott’s vault, a video emerges of one painting’s detailed destruction. As the video goes viral and copycat artwork destructions increase, all eyes are on the formerly reclusive heiress. Atlanta author, Blake Butler uses Alice’s introspective monologues to deliver a layered novel analyzing art’s meaning, legacy, and value.

THE AMERICAN ADRENALINE NARRATIVE

BY KRISTIN J. JACOBSON With the Summer Olympics postponed, you can get your adrenaline rush from this collection of narratives focused on the rise of heightened-risk, “extreme” sports within a natural setting. Perfect for lovers of Krakauer’s “Into Thin Air” or Cheryl Strayed’s “Wild”.

STRANGER IN THE LAKE BY KIMBERLY BELLE Atlanta author Kimberly Belle is back with a riveting new domestic thriller that will have you thinking twice about what lies beneath the surface of your favorite lake. When Charlotte married wealthy widower Paul there was local gossip, but now a body has washed up under their dock—in the exact same spot where Paul’s first wife tragically drowned. What first seems like a horrific coincidence quickly becomes a matter of life and death when Charlotte discovers the woman in the lake is not a stranger.

THE CHICKEN SISTERS BY KJ DELL’ANTONIA The century spanning feud between the Moores and the Pogociellos is about to be settled once and for all on the reality television restaurant competition, Food Wars. While the two teams each try to prove that they make the best fried chicken in the state, family secrets will be exposed and sibling bonds will be put to the test. Explore the power of good food while you try to figure out which restaurant (and family) will win: Chicken Mimi’s or Chicken Frannie’s?

The company is very selective in choosing practices to carry their line and we were thrilled that after interviewing us and coming down to see Artisan Plastic Surgery and meet our team, they selected us to bring Biologique to Atlanta. It was a very involved process because of the extensive training and education that the aestheticians need to learn the 200+ products and the specialized services that Biologique offers. We honestly feel very special that we can offer this exclusive, almost cult-like, product line to our patients!

LP: IF YOU COULD SHARE ONE THING WITH A PATIENT SEARCHING FOR A PLASTIC SURGEON AND/ OR A NEW PROVIDER FOR AESTHETIC TREATMENTS – WHAT WOULD YOU WANT THEM TO KEEP IN MIND? DA: Searching for a plastic surgeon or aesthetician is very personal. The services we provide are intimate and emotional, not just physical. We are dealing with the most private and important parts of our patients’ lives - how they feel about themselves and how they interact with their family, their friends, their world.

Trying to help our

patients feel beautiful and proud of themselves is a complex process that involves both scientific, technical, and emotional skills. Each patient has to find the provider who they feel understands their needs and desires and has the experience and resources to accomplish those goals.

LP: TELL US ABOUT YOUR TEAM AT ARTISAN BEAUTE` DA: The team at Artisan Beauté, just like all of the services and products, has been carefully curated. They are literally the finest aestheticians and support staff available in the city. Each one brings their own unique skills, talents, and vision to the spa. They have different personalities and approaches to their profession, but they all work together as a team and complement one another.

The level of expertise and experience is unmatched in Atlanta.

BuckHaven Lifestyle | July 2020

THIS MASCULINE SPACE WAS DESIGNED BY BETH KOOBIE. The gentleman of the house wanted a place to sip whiskey and listen to vinyl with friends. We asked Beth how she created this engaging room.

BHL: THIS DESIGN IS BOTH INVITING AND IMPOSING. HOW DO TEXTURE AND COLOR WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE A ROOM MORE INTERESTING? BK: Mixing up textures in a room creates tactile and visual dimension! For this room, I used a more earth tone color palette. I wanted it to be a relaxing space, one whether the decor is more cohesive. As opposed to brighter colors and harder textures, which would be too bold and jarring. The balance of the stone, the wood, the leather chairs and cowhide rug, the tin ceiling, and even the mirror with its more “rugged” antiquing come together as a more masculine room. I love how the copper ceiling color is picked up in some of the natural variations in the stone and the cowhide - it just makes everything feel right! The natural wood paneling wrapping around the room creates a kind of cocoon.

BHL: WHAT ARE A FEW OF YOUR FAVORITE ELEMENTS OF THE ROOM? BK: The copper ceiling turned out great, as did the custom, distressed mirror. The stone on the fireplace is organic and pretty and masculine (at the same time) and The small table, made from industrial mechanical parts was found at Paris on Ponce, paying homage to the pedals of the homeowner’s slide guitars.

All his other albums are contained in the custom storage unit. The builder, Elliott Homes, did a fantastic job with all the details I specified, which is a big deal. You can have all the coolest ideas, but if the execution is spotty, then it all goes down the drain.

FOR HIGH NET WORTH INVESTORS: Providing for and protecting your loved ones is never more critical than when you aren’t there to do so. An estate plan can help preserve and protect your wealth, control who receives your assets, ensure your wishes are carried out, reduce the tax burden on your heirs, and provide for continuation of your business.
