Even the Wildflowers
When Callie Morgan's husband walks out without a word, she's left with a broken heart, two young children, and a crumbling farmhouse out in the countryside her grandparents once called home. With no plan and no one to rely on but herself, she does what she's always done-she survives. But healing isn't easy when everything reminds her of what she's lost... until a quiet, sun-kissed cowboy named Colter Ridge steps in. He's rough around the edges, keeps to himself, and carries his own ghosts-but something about the way he sees her, steady and unafraid, begins to loosen the walls she's built. As the seasons shift and wildflowers bloom through cracked soil, Callie begins to find beauty in the mess, strength in the silence, and the kind of love that doesn't demand perfection-only truth. ****BOOK ONE, COMPLETE****Lengkap
God who stood still
God picks who? Who's next? When Moses' story came to an end, the next chapter of God's plan opened with a new generation. Not the elders, not the weary, but the young-strong, daring, and unafraid of bloody battlefields or dangerous spying missions. Into their hands God entrusted the conquest of the Promised Land. At the center stands Joshua. Once just a servant in the shadow of Moses, now chosen to carry the torch forward. A leader who would not only witness God's wonders but also call upon heaven itself to pause for victory. "If Moses could part the Red Sea, Joshua dared to ask the universe to stop in its tracks." O sun, stand still over Gibeon. O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon. Joshua's prayer was not ordinary. It was cosmic. Bold, even crazy to the human mind-but God listened. The universe bent, the sun halted, and the moon stood watch until the enemies fell. This is not just the story of battles and bloodshed. This is the story of a young servant transformed into a mighty leader-chosen by God to prove that with Him, nothing is impossible. Will you dare to believe like Joshua?Lengkap

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he? Why does he let innocent people suffer just to spite the ones doing wrong? Why would he leave two young boys motherless and then parentless? Why does character building mean going through shit?" Holden's voice cracks and I see his lips quiver, he looks away avoiding my gaze. In that moment I knew he needed comforting and sometimes that doesn't mean words, so I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand in mine letting him know if all else goes wrong, I'll always be there for him. __________________________________ Addison Mills just had her life turned upside down, from the death of her mother to leaving the only home she's ever known and Micah, the man she loved.

The Edge of Misery: The Mitchel Brothers Series Book Two
** Picks up where The Edge of Hell (Mitchell Brothers Series Book One) left off** If there's one thing Declan Mitchell learned from watching his mama almost die from the heartbreak of losing his daddy to a war nineteen years ago, it was that a great and powerful love delivered an equally devastating heartbreak and suffering-the kind he had every intention of avoiding like the bubonic plague. And until traveling west to Idaho Territory and coming face to face with the mismatch-eyed, auburn-haired beauty, Wren McCrawdon, he believed he might succeed in carrying out his plans of never marrying. Molded by her traumatic journey west when she was twelve, twenty-four-year-old, accident-prone Wren McCrawdon's life on her family's ranch in Falcon Ridge, Idaho, is full of back-breaking work, beginning as dawn's first rays peek across the mountains and ending long after the sun sets when she can barely drag her weary bones up the stairs to her bedroom. But from the morning Declan Mitchell and his family arrive, her miserable existence becomes more bearable until tragedy strikes when all she sees are the harsh realities of loss and suffering. Concerned for Wren's safety and remembering how bitter the edge of misery was after his daddy died-Declan discovers he's willing to do anything he can to take it away from her... even if it means a marriage of convenience is the only suitable solution. There are only two problems: first, it's already apparent he's following in his mama's footsteps toward eventual heartbreak, and second he somehow has to convince Wren to agree.Lengkap
