CHANCES ARE – Book 1 Allie's plan to start over in Pacific Bay might just have a happy ending . . . that is, until her good-for-nothing ex shows up and complicates matters. REMEMBER US – Book 2 It would take a miracle to rekindle Ben and Olivia’s love, and that miracle arrives in the form of an eleven-year-old houseguest, Ryan Barrett, who brings humor, hope, and unexpected wisdom to the situation “…when you love someone, you should say it a lot. People forget.” CHASING WIND – Book 3 When a political scandal threatens the life Diane Jeffers clings to in Los Angeles, she has little choice but to pack up her rebellious, uncontrollable teenager and reluctantly return home to Pacific Bay in order to escape the glare of the media. Even in the face of buried secrets, she quickly learns some ties can never be broken. BETWEEN RAINS – Book 4 When Rhett Duvall is forced to leave his high-powered private equity firm in Chicago, he returns to the small coastal town where he grew up, totally unprepared for how quickly things get complicated…or, that he might find himself falling for a certain woman who also recently moved back to town.

Historian Harry Gailey offers a fresh one-volume treatment of the vast Pacific theater in World War II, examining in detail the performance of Japanese and Allied naval, air, and land forces in every major military operation. The War in the Pacific begins with an examination of events leading up to World War II and compares the Japanese and American economies and societies, as well as the chief combatants' military doctrine, training, war plans, and equipment. The book then chronicles all significant actions - from the early Allied defeats in the Philippines, the East Indies, and New Guinea; through the gradual improvement of the Allied position in the Central and Southwest Pacific regions; to the final agonies of the Japanese people, whose leaders refused to admit defeat until the very end. Gailey gives detailed treatment to much that has been neglected or given only cursory mention in previous surveys. The reader thus gains an unparalleled overview of operations, as well as many fresh insights into the behind-the-scenes bickering between the Allies and the interservice squabbles that dogged MacArthur and Nimitz throughout the war. NOTE: This edition does not include a photo insert.
