I am just an ordinary woman turned "extraordinary" through circumstances. I touch others through my own tragedies by giving them hope and encouragement and reminding them that sometimes the richest people are those who have endured tragedy, pain, sadness, and struggle, allowing them to lead a more abundant life. Never would I change my life experiences. My greatest gift is my endless compassion for others, and my sincerest hope is to bring each and every one of you the gift of pure joy, the kind of joy that enlarges your heart and brings tears to your eyes. I have laughed at diversity, tragedy, failure, poor health, and financial devastation. Yet I am so very rich! Yes, it was God who told me to contact you through my book and his words. If you met me personally, you would understand this is not my ego talking. I am only repeating what God told me. "I am." "You are." "We" are all destined for greatness!

Unplanned pregnancies happen to women in every season of life: the newly married, the never-married, the empty-nester, the teenager, the overworked mother, the career woman. Yet we rarely talk about how lonely and confusing this experience can be. In Surprise Child, Leslie Leyland Fields, who experienced two unplanned pregnancies in her forties, lyrically weaves her own story with the stories of other women who understand the isolation you face as expectations and plans are turned upside down to make room for a child. “Each year, more than three million women discover themselves pregnant–at a hard time, the wrong time, at a difficult place in their lives. I am one of those women.…” Together, these women walk with you month-by-month through the physical and emotional stages of pregnancy, voicing with startling honesty their own anxieties and struggles. Here you will find the companionship and hope you need to journey toward new life.

THE TOWNSFOLK WERE STIRRING UP TWENTY KINDS OF TROUBLE! Sassy hairdresser Nora Darby had a chip on her shoulder the size of Texas. Abandoned by her dad and betrayed by her fiancé, she was anti-man, anti-marriage and mouthy about it to boot. All of which suited Stephen Remington, M.D., to a tee. Though the townsfolk considered him the ideal candidate to scale Nora's defenses and soften her heart, the sexy widower had vowed never to love—and lose—again. But their public battle of the sexes led to a night of shocking, private passion…and an unexpected pregnancy…leaving no-strings Nora and love-shy Stephen staring straight down the shotgun of motherhood and—shudder!—matrimony….

Most of us want to live at the edge of something ...a business venture, a relationship, an outdoor adventure.

You want to absorb the adventure ...and then tell your stories around the dinner table....In Fumes and a Prayer, Dennis Bauer invites you to live life at the edge. And he asks you to remember three key words, words his flight instructor taught him, words he didn't know he would need until the day the engine coughed and sputtered, and the propeller began to windmill in the air five thousand feet over northern Colorado....Sometimes, while pursuing life at the edge, things go wrong. For any venture you pursue, here are the three critical keys you must know for success and survival....Includes chapters on Risk, Opportunity, Experience, Predictability and Opportunity, and the short, closing chapter, Foundation, on the author's personal faith.Be prepared for risks.
