Even out here in the country, bad things happen." Raven Stevenson was in Lakeview barely twenty-four hours when she heard those ominous words. She'd come to the small Virginia town to reconcile with her brother and forget the haunting memories of her past. She didn'texpect to find friends, community -- or a thirty-five-year-old mysteryof tragic love.Nor did she expect to meet Shane Montgomery, whose love for his ailing aunt Abby breaks through Raven's carefully built defenses. When Abby unwittingly shares some of the secrets behind that long-buriedmystery, she and Raven are targeted by someone who wants those secrets silenced -- and who's willing to kill both of them to do it.

WARRIOR'S HEART (Homeland Heroes, book 2) by Donna Fleisher (Signed bythe author!)

A new home. A new life. To have both, she must outlast a bitter storm.Once Chris fought for her country. Now she's fighting for her faith. And she's about to fight for her life.This is no mere storm. It's a deluge of catastrophic proportions. Swollen by record rains and a ten-inch snowmelt, the Willamette Riveris hammering Portland, Oregon, with the flood of the century. In Chris McIntyre's heart, a different kind of flood--a rising torrentof emotions--threatens to sweep her away from the community of Kimberly Square. Her newfound faith keeps her from running. But how can she stay? Her push-the-limits personality may have made her a perfect soldier, but it sets her apart from the people at her church. And it sets her at odds with Scott Mathis, the husband of her closest friend, Erin. Fearing for Erin's safety, Scott resents his wife's high-risk friendship with Chris. But when Scott and Chris are forced together to help Kimberly Square residents ride out the storm, a different, equally lethal danger descends on them. Death or redemption rest in the hands of oneperson--a woman with a warrior's heart.
