From the author of Two from Isaac's House comes the story behind the story. Sixteen years after terrorists target Meira, she and her husband face their toughest task yet: telling their son a truth he'll hate. Tony Rasad has spent most of his young life in Lebanon as the Arab-American son of a university professor. Beirut's where he wants to be, running around, playing on the beach with his best friend. Instead, he's stuck at this lake house in upstate New York, preparing to go to prep school. The secret he learns will change everything. His parents, the liars, have been living under a cover so deep they never even told their only son who he is. Exposing their lies could cost them everything, including him.

Another Carolina Coast novel from the author of Becalmed. It takes a town to save a child. That town in Beaufort. Annie Mac's estranged husband vows that nothing will stop him from getting his baby girl. Not Annie Mac and certainly not that boy of hers. Only four blocks away, Hannah Morgan lives in comfort with her husband and dog, making pottery and waiting for her best friend to come home. When she discovers the two children cowering in the bushes and their mama left for dead, it doesn't take her long to rally the sleepy town of Beaufort, NC, and to set her coterie of do-gooders to some extra-strength do-gooding. Add in Clay, a lonely police lieutenant yanked out of his comfort zone and into the heart of this small family, and who knows what will happen?

Dementia, mad gunmen, and a yearning for something more make life difficult for the Beaufort folk in this series finale. Georgie's mind threatens to go walkabout, and she'd better get help soon if she's to stop her daughter from taking over. Enter granddaughter, Jeminy, a songwriter from L.A., and Eric, her lawyer.Jeminy hates herself and is pretty sure God does, too. Her boyfriend/manager dumped her, and she's lost her music deal. When she learns Mother wants to tuck Nana Georgie neatly in a nursing home and gain access to Nana's money, she hightails it out of L.A. and back to Beaufort. God may still hate Jeminy in North Carolina, but at least she'll be there to protect her beloved grandmother. Enter Eric, the lawyer who's helping Georgie protect herself-and maybe Jeminy, too. But Eric just rescued his orphaned stepson from Social Services, and while he's adept with legal briefs and courtrooms, classrooms and angry second graders are brand new territory.Guitar in hand, Jeminy tries to write songs to jumpstart her flagging career, but then someone threatens her life. Why? Could it have to do with the money missing from her bank accounts-and maybe her unstable ex? Or could it be someone else? She'd pray for help, but would God even want to help someone with a past like hers? With the help of the Beaufort crew, a new father and a terrified musician struggle to safeguard everyone they love, but it's going to take more than good neighbors to show each of them the true meaning of grace.

Heart of Excellence finalist - Selah Awards FinalistWhen a Southern woman with a broken heart finds herself falling for a widower with a broken boat, it's anything but smooth sailing.With her days chock full-designing jewelry for the shop she co-owns with her best friend, sailing her sharpie, and hanging out with girlfriends-Tadie Longworth barely notices she's morphing into the town's maiden aunt. When Will, a widower with a perky daughter named Jilly, limps into town in a sailboat badly in need of engine repairs, Tadie welcomes the chance to help. Her shop becomes Jilly's haven while Will hunts boat parts, and Tadie even takes the two of them sailing. It's the kind of thing she lives for, and it's a welcome distraction from the fact that her ex-boyfriend Alex, aka The Jerk of Jerks, is back in town. With his northern bride. Oh, and he's hitting on Tadie, too.Those entanglements are more than enough, thank you very much, so it's almost a relief when a hurricane blows into town: at least the weather can match Tadie's mood. When Will and Jilly take shelter in her home, though, Tadie finds herself battling her attraction to Will. Even worse, the feeling is mutual, tempting them all with what-ifs that petrify Will, who has sworn never to fall in love again. Mired in misunderstanding, he takes advantage of the clear skies and hauls Jilly out of there and back to his broken boat so fast, Tadie's head spins.With the man she might have loved gone, and the man she wishes gone showing up on her doorstep, Tadie finds herself like a sailboat with no wind; becalmed, she has to fight her way back against the currents to the shores of the life, and the man, she wants.Written for the General Market (G) (I): Contains little or no; sexual dialogue or situations or strong language.
