Faith is believing in something when the outcome seems impossible. Rachel Walker’s husband left her for another woman, her parents are disappointed in her, and her job as a child psychologist isn’t going well. The only place she feels valued is at Three Hearts Ranch, the equine-assisted therapy center where she volunteers. It’s her safe space from the world. Until Christopher Adler walks through the barn door. Chris is the only survivor of the attack that took the lives of the other men in his Humvee in Afghanistan. Several years later, after a string of bad relationships and too much booze, his life changed one cold night when he met God. Now, trying to turn his life around, he seeks help for his PTSD at Three Hearts Ranch. But he wasn’t counting on Rachel Walker—the girl he hurt in high school—to be assigned as his therapist. Rachel detests Chris, and working together isn’t an option. But then Faith, an abused palomino mare, is brought to the farm. As they try to save her, old feelings resurface. Can their wounds be healed and their hearts restored?
This book can be read as a stand alone. To do a great right, do a little wrong. A honeymoon in Paris! Except…there’s more at stake in the City of Lights than romance. Abigail’s specialty as an ancient maps librarian has brought her to a prestigious symposium at the Louvre, where she has one final chance to prove herself and save her job. Tony, a recently reformed cat burglar, is there to search for his family’s roots and learn more about his great-grandfather. Then Abigail’s wedding ring is stolen, and she and Tony put sightseeing on hold to track down the thief. The emerald ring is highly desired by thieves and collectors for its connection to a famous Italian artist, but it’s worth more to Tony and Abigail as a family heirloom and symbol of their love. As the newlyweds seek answers, the line between right and wrong blurs. With Abigail’s future in jeopardy, and Tony’s reputation following him, how far will they go to find the truth?

Quoting Shakespeare, clad in black spandex, and armed with his charming smile, Tony and his story are hard to resist. Intrigued, Abigail gets caught up in the hunt, not realizing that the thief’s real target may be her heart!
An introverted horse-whisperer, a famous equine artist, and the mare who brings them together. Tori Reynolds has never liked the term “breaking” horses to ride. Instead, she earns their trust, and can climb aboard a wild mustang the same day she meets it. Her farm, an historic bed and breakfast, sits along the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan in the small town of St. Ives, and her life as a B&B owner and sought-after horse whisperer is pretty much perfect. Until a visit to New York City changes everything. Matt Cheval is a handsome, nationally-known artist. When Tori steps into his Manhattan art show, she unexpectedly finds herself and her horse in his paintings. Angry and frightened, she is now faced with the memory of a day she has spent years trying to forget. Tori flees back to the security of her farm and the comfort of her horse, but Matt follows to apologize for a wrong he isn’t sure he knows how to fix. Torn between anger and her growing feelings for Matt, she wonders if she has wrongly judged this sensitive artist. Maybe some wounds can be healed. But when tragedy strikes, will their hope in the future, and their faith in God hold their relationship together? Or will they lose each other forever?

She had to be braver than she ever thought she could be. As the Vietnam War rages, nineteen-year-old Francie Dalton marries to escape her abusive and religiously oppressive childhood home. Fleeing to Florida and her grandfather’s horse farm, she hopes to find the comfort and safety she has always longed for. When her husband leaves Francie and her newborn daughter, handsome farm manager Frank Weaver offers her the support she never knew she needed and hope in a loving God who is nothing like the vindictive God of her childhood. Just as Francie starts to believe she has finally found the security she has always craved, she is asked to do the unthinkable. To save an innocent life, she must commit a crime that puts everyone she loves at risk. Now, neither the fences around Francie’s horse farm nor the barriers around her heart are enough to keep her safe. Set to the backdrop of the thrilling world of Thoroughbred racing, The Things We Know in Part is a sweeping epic of love and betrayal, of unbelievable hurt and inhuman pain. It’s the story of how far the human spirit can go before it’s crushed, and of how close God can be, even when it seems He’s not.
