Southern Gentleman:

What’s best for the baby? Norah Brown must answer this question when Thornton Winter pushes his way into her life. Baby Camille’s parents, Thornton’s brother and Norah’s sister, were killed in a terrible accident and both Norah and Thornton feel responsible for the baby. But by the time Thornton comes along, Norah has already formed a strong bond with Camille.

Will he try to take the baby away from her?

To keep her greatest fear from being realized, Norah reluctantly agrees to move with the baby to Thornton’s family home in South Carolina, where she soon finds herself in a battle of wills with his take-charge manner.

It doesn’t help matters any that Norah begins to lose her heart to this Southern Gentleman she fears she can never have.

After the Storm:

Sharon cannot face her future until she has dealt with her past. When an accident takes everyone in her family except Sharon Martin’s grandson, she is forced to face the secrets of her past.

When tragedy strikes, can love and honesty save a life?

Somewhere a Rainbow:

She wonders how she will manage as a single parent, and once she arrives on the island, she can’t imagine how she’ll be able to repair a cottage as broken down as her life. When local carpenter Jake Randolph offers to help, Brooke immediately distrusts him. But as the months pass, she begins to think he may be different from other men she has known. Through Jake and his family, Brooke learns that the Lord can restore her broken life, renew her faith, and even melt the emotional ice around her heart.
