The one she wanted but couldn't have. Not without revealing the truth. That's why she left, why she's stayed away. And why she has to return... Seth Rowland doesn't want her to see him like this. Of all people, why her? But Grace is relentless. Challenging. Maybe if he cooperates, he'll be able to walk again. Maybe he'll get to the truth of why she'd left. Maybe this time... he'll be able to convince her to stay. IT HAD TO BE YOU Of all the people in the world for him and his daughter to love... why did it have to be them?Sheriff Jonas Taggert needs a helping hand with his daughter and Rissa and her Goth-dressing teen are definitely not it. But a heart doesn't always stick to the rules. He can't afford to fall for a woman who doesn't plan to stick around, much less one who can't control her own kid. But just his luck the girls become friends and trouble follows... Widowed pilot, Rissa Matthews' life is falling apart. Looking for a new start, she joins her cousin at the Second Chance Ranch hoping to find her own second chance. Instantly she's butting heads with the gorgeous small-town sheriff. Tension is rising and rumors are flying. Can love happen when the odds are against it? How can this small-town sheriff keep control of his town when he can't keep control of his heart? HERS TO KEEP With all her heart Carly Taggert wants to be a mother, but without a husband there's only one way she knows to make it happen—become a foster parent. She’s signed up, willing, waiting and ready...oh so ready. Liam McKenna is assigned by Carly's sheriff father to keep her out of trouble while the sheriff is away. When he learns of her plan Liam is sure she's headed for it--lock, stock, and barrel. Foster kids are messed up. Broken. Trouble. He ought to know since he was one. But there's no talking sense into Carly and soon Liam finds himself dragged into the chaos and falling for her despite knowing better. She’s a softie, in for a hard fall and he knows it…because those kids aren't hers to keep. But he’s sticking around for her and maybe once she knows how painful it can be to let them go, she'll drop the nonsense of having kids and keep him instead...
Sometimes exposing the secrets of the past is the only way to heal… Widow Skylar Mathews is desperate to help her troubled, young son, Cody and hopes returning home to Montana and family will accomplish that. But Marcus Whitefeather's surprising presence on the ranch leaves her reeling. Marcus knew he'd regret sending Skylar and their unborn son away but at the time he'd had no choice. He'd lost everything, including his ability to walk, and no way was he ready to be a father, much less a husband. Ending their relationship was the hardest--and best--thing for all of them. But now they're back and Marcus is a different man. When Cody doesn't improve, Marcus suggests the unthinkable--that they reveal the truth not only to Cody but their families. Make the wrong right and start again. Together. But after so many years of hiding their secret son how can Marcus prove he's not only father material--but ready for more?
THIS BOX SET CONTAINS BOOKS 4-6 OF THE MONTANA SECRETS SERIES: MILLION DOLLAR STANDOFF A million-dollar standoff...who will win? How does a Burbank-loving, California-dreaming, city girl find herself on a Montana ranch living with a too-handsome stranger? A Will, that's how. And now Gabriella Thompson is entwined in a million-dollar standoff with Brad McKenna. If she meets the terms of the Will, the land is hers to do with as she pleases and what she wants to do is sell to the highest bidder. But Brad, her host for the required three months, is determined to change her mind because as badly as she needs the money, he needs to control the land. Three months is enough time to get to know someone really well...or even fall in love. Question is: does her cowboy rancher really love her? Or is it just about winning the prize? HIS CHRISTMAS WISH Widowed, a single mom, Christmas and she's just lost her job. Can it get worse? Apparently it can when Santa asks if he can help her and Jenna Darlington knows it's a cruel joke. Because Santa--Chance McKenna--is a member of the Rock Gods, a group of rock climbers who live off of adrenaline and stupidity. Been there, done that. Buried her husband because of it. She has no respect for a man who doesn't respect life--even if he is offering her a job. Chance knows exactly how Jenna feels about him and the rest of the Rock Gods. So why does he feel the way he does around her? They're polar opposites when it comes to life views. But isn't the saying that opposites attract?

This true crime history recounts the shocking murder of an eight-year-old girl which in turn led to the last mob lynching in Prohibition Era Kansas. In April of 1932, eight-year-old Dorothy Hunter was abducted while walking home from school. Her mutilated body was later found hidden in a haystack. Not long after, police reported that a local farmer named Richard Read confessed to Dorothy’s rape and murder. But his arrest was not enough for the citizens on Northwestern Kansas. Removing him from his jail cell in Cheyenne County, a mob bound and hanged Read from a tree in what would be the state’s final lynching. In Under a Full Moon, Alice Kay Hill chronicles these grim events, vividly weaving the stories of the victims and the families involved. Taking a deep dive into the psycho-social complexities of the time, the narrative spans from the late nineteenth century to the beginning of the Dust Bowl, revealing how mental and physical abuse, social isolation, the privations of homesteading, strong dreams and even stronger personalities all factored into Read’s life and crimes.

But after he learns the truth, Quinn must fight the biggest battle of his life if he hopes to win the woman he loves. Forgiveness is never easy, but forgiving oneself is sometimes the hardest of all... The Stone River series continues with THROUGH THE VALLEY.
Worlds in Common? examines the newly emerging forms of language used in satellite television programmes, exploring a wide range of genres including twenty-four hour news broadcasting, culture channels, talk shows, local TV and European news. Focusing on the experiences of British and German viewers, the authors discuss these new forms of communication brought about by the technological and economic upheavals in Europe in the late 1990s. This interaction between media theories and media discourses, makes the book highly relevant for researchers in media and cultural studies as well as linguistics, and provides an important and innovatory link between these different approaches.
