DOWNLOAD EBOOKSometimes in life, choices just aren't part of the plan. When fate interferes and bulldozes right over you. That's how I felt the first time I saw him. Standing in my kitchen, soaking wet, hotter than a man has the right to be, and holding a knife. Declan's cold, stone-cold. I can't help but want him. His presence stirs up some raw emotion within me. He seems so...alone. But is he here to kill me or save me? He's the one man I should never want...and the one I can never forget.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt’s often undetected—but if you knew the damage it was causing, you’d do everything possible to root it out! Envy. It’s insidious. Pervasive. Corrosive. In the age of materialism and social media, it’s difficult not to feel the creep of this increasing and ever-present temptation. Pastor and teacher Mike Fabarez diagnoses the problem of this pervasive sin. He brings the reader to biblical stories with often-overlooked ties to envy that expose and demonstrate the seriousness and harm caused by our unexamined motives. When envy is allowed to reside unchecked in our hearts, there are internal, relational, and societal costs—Envy explores all of these. But we are not left to despair. Instead, we are invited to know a kind and gracious Father who calls us to identify and assault this enemy. We can live with satisfaction and contentment. This book explores biblical ways to shore up our hearts and minds and close the gaps that leave us vulnerable to envy’s temptations. By understanding life in the body of Christ, readers learn to truly rejoice with those who rejoice. And we leave with a deeper capacity for grace and selfless love. With a pastoral heart, Fabarez reassures Christians of a divine hope and promise of an eternal kingdom where hearts are content, and joy is full.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLife on a cattle station in Australia's unforgiving Northern Territory is rough. The extreme heat, humidity, insects, dust, isolation, and predators forge impenetrable bonds among those who can survive here. The people are just as hardened--and just as unforgiving--as the wild lands they fight to tame. In 1987, Clare Daine, a schoolteacher from Melbourne, takes up the job of governess to identical triplets at the Opium Creek station. She's shocked to discover that the "homestead" is little more than an old tin shed with limited electricity. Her employer, Jack Marlow, a narcissistic alcoholic, is extremely demanding, and the other men of the station are as raw around the edges as the station itself. Three years before Clare's arrival, the triplets' mother, Lily, disappeared during a brutal wet-season storm. Now, doubt has left the close-knit community nervous, suspicious, and aggrieved. When Wanatjiti, Lily's renegade stallion, returns, old wounds are opened, and unanswered questions rise again. Ngunintja, the triplets' grandmother, has her own theories about what really happened during that fateful storm. And now nightmares tear Clare's sleep apart. Her dedication to the children is the only thing that keeps her from fleeing the horrors of this life. Slowly, she comes to understand the love-hate relationship they all share with each other and with the land itself. Clare's single-minded determination to discover the truth behind Lily's disappearance puts her own safety at risk. How far will she go to solve the mystery?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKJohn Ridgeway, an only child born in 1918 to a poor working-class family, grew up in the shadow of New York City. His father died when he was ten, and despite the obstacles and hardships of the Great Depression, John excelled in school. His perseverance and hard work was rewarded by earning a scholarship to college. In 1938, he experienced the Long Island Express, a destructive Cape Verde hurricane named for its sudden arrival without much warning. This event left a lasting impression on John. John, having graduated from college, fell in love with Ellen, whom he met at the 1939 New York World's Fair, and they wedded a year and a half later. With war looming on the horizon and the United States entry almost certain, John enlisted in the navy's newly created officer candidate school. Upon graduation, he was appointed to Fort Schuyler as an instructor but, after almost two years of teaching, felt he had to do more, so he applied for sea duty and was assigned to the battleship South Dakota. In his first two months, he experienced enough battle action to last a lifetime. Severely damaged, the South Dakota returned to New York for repairs, but a reunion with Ellen was not to be. John was transferred to the destroyer Warrington as executive officer and spent the next two years shuttling supplies between islands in the Pacific. The Warrington, in dire need of a maintenance overhaul, returned to New York, and John had the reunion with Ellen that was stolen when he transferred from the South Dakota. The Warrington's repairs were mostly superficial, but the ship's fate was determined by forces beyond her control. The ship sailed from Norfolk, Virginia, despite a weather alert about a hurricane off the Bahamas. John expressed his concern about this foolhardy decision to the captain but was powerless to change the course of events. The Warrington sailed into the maelstrom of the Great Atlantic Hurricane.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKReporter Sandra Garcia wants to write solid, meaningful news stories, but her editor at the Los Angeles Post always hands her feel-good puff pieces. When he assigns her to write a profile of Rafael Perez, the founder of Aztec Sun, a movie production company, she expects to find herself stuck penning yet another puff piece. But things at Aztec Sun are not what they seem, and Rafael is clearly hiding something. Rafael Perez spent his youth as a street gang member, and he’s not proud of his background. He will do whatever it takes to keep the nosy reporter from the Post from revealing who he really is and where he’s come from, even as his second-in-command courts Sandra and tries to get her to publicize the studio’s first big-budget production, which stars a beautiful TV star trying to make the leap to movies. Rafael can hold things together and keep his secrets buried—until his pretty blond star turns up dead. Now Sandra has a murder story to report. And her investigative skills might destroy Rafael and the life he’s created for himself.
