Can you ever really go home again? Rose Fletcher's come a long way from her South Carolina up-bringing of Sunday church and Mamaw's fried chicken. As a high-powered lobbyist in Washington, D.C., Rose has put the South behind her. But the peace and happiness she has sought eludes her. With her marriage on the brink of disaster, her mind races with the chaos her life has become. Now Rose must head south for home. She'll face her demons, relive her coming-of-age, and confront the issues that have kept her away all these years. It'll take the intervention of strangers and a painful miracle of grace to help her find that place called "home" once again.
Have you ever wondered where the abundant life Scripture promises is, and how you seem to have missed it? Do you ever catch yourself saying, “Those were the best years of my life?” A failed relationship, a health crisis, a job loss, the death of a loved one—all can cause us to hide out, go numb, give up. Before we even know it, we’re simply coping with life instead of living it to the fullest. It happens to most of us at one point or another. For author and Bible study teacher Denise Hildreth Jones, it happened in the wake of her devastating divorce. But she fought desperately to reclaim her God-designed heart, and now, in her transparent, authentic style, Denise challenges you to do the same. Sharing stories from her own journey and others she’s walked alongside, Denise will help you identify ways you’ve given your heart to “lesser gods” like performance, people-pleasing, and control, and how to find your way back to God’s design for your life—to laughing, loving, and living life to the fullest.
Jeremiah Williams has been tending the gardens of the Tennessee governor’s mansion for over twenty-five years. And like most first families who have come and gone, this one has stolen his heart. Mackenzie and her husband, Governor Gray London, have struggled for ten years to have a child and are now enjoying a sweet season of life—anticipating the coming reelection and sending their precious daughter, Maddie, off to kindergarten—when a tragedy tears their world apart. As the entire state mourns, Mackenzie falls into a grief that threatens to swallow her whole. Though his heart is also broken, Jeremiah realizes that his gift of gardening is about far more than pulling weeds and planting flowers. It’s about tending hearts as well. As he uses the tools that have been placed in his hands, he gently begins to cultivate the hard soil of Mackenzie’s heart, hoping to help her realize what it took him years to discover. A Southern tale of loss, love, and living, The First Gardner reminds us that all of life is a gift, but our heart is the most valuable gift of all.

Pastor's wife Scarlett Jo Newberry reaches out to Grace Shepherd and Zach Craig as they face difficulties in their marriages and some painful secrets come to light.
For one year following her painful divorce, Denise Hildreth chronicled every emotion, every new discovery, and every moment of God's unyielding presence. Flying Solo, the diary of that roller-coaster year, begins on the day Denise sat in court to hear a judge end her 13-year marriage and follows her through twelve months of soul-searching, heartbreak, and healing. With vivid stories, raw emotion, and unwavering honesty, Denise opens a window for divorced or divorcing readers to breathe in the fresh air of God's Spirit. For, among many surprises in store for Denise during her first year of flying solo, one of the most startling was this: God desires to be with us through our pain. She writes, "Flying solo isn't about being alone. It is about living a life that may hurt at times, wound at times, betray at times; but there is still an incredible unobstructed view of heaven, and an opportunity to discover God in the middle of it." Readers struggling to stay afloat in the wake of a marriage's end will hear from a fellow traveler that they don't have to settle for treading water . . . they can learn to fly.
Savannah from Savannah: Savannah Phillips recently got her master's degree, but to prove herself to her mother, she moves back home to Savannah, Georgia to write for the local newspaper. Her mother, Victoria, uses her former beauty queen fame to run people's lives, but an investigative journalism piece by Savannah uncovers some family secrets. Savannah comes undone: In the wake of family secrets being revealed, Victoria Phillips chains herself to a monument and makes the news. Savannah, still working on the paper, tries to avoid drama, but gets pulled into the fray.
The only constants in reporter Savannah Phillips's life are her best friend Paige, her workplace tormenter Joshua, her steady father—and her crazed mother. In spite of that, she agrees to take a Florida vacation with her parents and enjoy some seaside "rest and relaxation" for a week. What could possibly go wrong? First, Savannah had to lie to her boss. (Sort of.) Then her parents had a fight. (They never fight.) The pint-sized lapdog that is treated better than she is has thrown up. (Twice.) Their family vacation hasn't even started...and she’s ready to go home. No one in her right mind would actually choose to spend a week at the beach with a steel-Magnolia drama queen, a tragically disappointed diva-in-training, and a yapping, hurling, supremely annoying little canine princess. But Savannah loves the beach, so she came. Then she runs into the gorgeous, exasperating Joshua North. . .and watches her good sense slide rapidly south. Which goes to show that even with a tan and (maybe) a new man in her life—she’s still the same old Savannah from Savannah. Told in the wry voice of an adult child of a drama queen, Denise Hildreth’s Savannah series is packed with humor, love, and wisdom—with a southern accent.
