A bride with secrets. A groom with a past. A love tested by lies." When a factory fire leaves Katie Maverick jobless and desperate, she makes a bold choice—become a mail-order bride. An unexpected marriage offer from vineyard owner Daniel O’Malley seems like the answer to her prayers. But there’s a catch: Daniel didn’t place the ad. His business partner did, hoping a wife might silence the town’s whispers that Daniel was responsible for his first wife’s mysterious death. Reluctantly, Daniel agrees to the arrangement, thinking Katie might help him restore order in his life and put an end to the malicious rumors. But he’s not prepared for the vibrant woman who brightens his lonely world and begins to break through the barriers around his heart. Yet as strange acts of vandalism threaten his vineyard, Daniel begins to question whether Katie’s arrival is pure chance—or something more sinister. Could this sweet, innocent bride be hiding dangerous secrets? And is it possible she’s connected to the tragedy that haunts his past? In a world where trust is fragile, Daniel must uncover the truth before his vineyard—and his heart—are destroyed. Fans of Kirsten Osbourne, Callie Hutton, and Cynthia Woolf will enjoy this mail-order bride story

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
