"This is a contemporary romance that contains profound lessons of faith and portrays love's ability to heal beautifully. It is witty, intricate, and immersive. Highly recommended." - Edith Wairimu for Reader's Favorite "It is refreshing to read any romance in which the characters have self-restraint and values, and they can sit and converse and deal with trust issues before acting on their mutual attraction. This book series shows that it is possible to write emotionally charged stories without compromising values and beliefs to make them sell.... interweaves belief and faith in Christ into the plot so that it feels natural and right. May we see more of these stories that reflect the values that Christians live by and want to read about." - Delene Vrey for Reader's Favorite Chase Bondurant spent years running from his past the only way he knew how: by keeping his mind busy and his hands preoccupied. He moved to Goodwater Ranch, rebuilt his life and started his own business to put as much distance between himself and those memories that he possibly could. ​​​​​​​ But soon, his demons will come roaring back when he happens upon a chance encounter with Goodwater Ranch’s mayor-elect. Ophelia Day has skeletons of her own, ones that she's been trying to bury beneath her political platform centered around sheltering abused and neglected women and children. When she learns that the man behind her painful memories has escaped prison, Ophelia turns to the only place she feels safe: Chase Bondurant's arms. Despite his best laid plans, Chase will be forced to make a choice: protect this woman he’s strangely drawn to, or keep pretending everything’s fine. *** Each book is a stand-alone*** However, Goodwater Ranch is a small-town series, and many characters cross over and interact in each story.

Taylor Strauss was in love with her best friend. Until he vanished without a word, and left her reeling in the aftermath. Isaiah Matthews thought he'd made his intentions plainly known, his plans understood and his promises kept. But what happened next was a series of misunderstandings, old demons and unforgiveness combining that would alter the paths of everyone, including Isaiah, Taylor, and the citizens of Goodwater Ranch. Now, he needs to reclaim the one thing that matters the most: the heart of the woman he left behind. This is a story of how God works all things for good for His children, and erases the years. This is the story of a poor boy, a single mom, a drunken dad and a love-struck man. This is the story of first loves, lost loves, and those who have to piece together the remains of shattered lives.

The only problem is, she neglected to tell her grumpy 'business partner' first. Much to Detective Ben Camden's dismay, she’s posted business cards offering their sleuthing services all over the town of Goodwater Ranch.

Janie Buchanan has a dark sense of humor and a secret to hide. She has cancer – again – and she's set out on the latest globetrotting adventure to try and mark off more bucket list items. Except what wasn't on the agenda was meeting Caspar Levander, a world-class thespian and specimen of pure male perfection, who has rudely followed her to an African conservation and interrupted her quest to help save a baby elephant. And what is definitely, absolutely, most certainly, not on her list is falling in love. Caspar Levander was living one show at a time, enjoying being the handsome hero of the stage and floating through life without any real plans to the contrary. Until one fateful day on a bridge, he encounters a beautifully weird woman who he feels strangely compelled to keep safe, no matter what continent she’s on. When the opportunity to cross off another experience arises, so comes the revelation that Janie isn’t as strong as she’s pretended to be. And maybe, just maybe, Cas has been sent to her not only as a refuge but as a reminder to not lean on her own understanding. Travel the world and revisit old friends in the third and final book in the Levander Brothers trilogy! *This novel is a complete stand-alone.* "My mother passed away at the age of forty-three and a generations-deep risk of cancer loomed over my heart, sort of a when as opposed to an if. In my heart of hearts, I understood what Janie was going through and appreciated the author's skillful handling of delicate subjects such as terminal illness and faith with her own sensitivity and depth of understanding." Jamie Michelle for Reader's Favorite "I was instantly drawn to Janie and her wicked sense of humor, which permeates the usually-fluffy romantic overtones of novels like these and gives it some darker, more realistic spaces to explore. The atmosphere and locations of the work are varied and cinematically rich, with lots of different experiences that put Janie and Caspar in amusing situations for their meet-cutes, growing the tension." K.C. Finn for Reader's Favorite "Well, if you're looking for a full-on Christian romance with a side of serious armchair travel, you will not be disappointed..."

"...an exciting fun-filled ride of a lifetime. Where the first book was more serious, the second is filled with sassy women and good humor. The first book is an introduction to Jude's world and his family of Immortals, but the second book is an action-packed adventure filled with time travel and people from myth and legend. I was so caught up in the book that I did not want to put it down. Ms. Lewis writes a story that flows effortlessly from the pages, creating a rich and fulfilling reading experience." Delene Vrey for Reader's Favorite For a time, they remained hidden. For a time, they remained as legends. Until it was not enough to only live. Jude, the vampire king, just wanted to live out his life with his new bride. Go on their honeymoon, read the paper every Sunday morning over coffee and beignets, bury himself in the comfort of his wife’s arms. Is that too much to ask? They say life is what happens while you’re making other plans, and now Jude is coming to terms with two highly uncomfortable truths: the world is nothing as he’s known it to be, and nothing will ever the be the same again. Because while he’s been on a personal quest to save history, an ancient and paranormal war has been simmering beneath his nose to wipe out his family and the vampire kind in general. Now, like it or not, Jude is forced to step into his destiny as leader, king and the prophesied Warrior. With the help of the People of Wudge, along with history’s immortal heroes, Jude and his family will begin to discover their true purpose – and just exactly how nightmares can become reality. Continuing where A New Queen left off, join our band of immortal misfits as they travel the world in search of the keys to defeat the supernatural army rising to destroy them. Part historical fiction, part speculative fiction, and part paranormal fiction, take a deeper dive to discover the stories behind Marie, Ludwig, the People of Wudge and the Ancient Impieties! What if… everything you knew about history was a lie? What if… it was all connected? *Please note: This book picks up directly where Book 1 left off, and there is a cliffhanger.* "...what also impressed me about this superb creation was its emotional resonance and the level of realism that’s interwoven by the presence of real history and powerful characterization. There was also a great deal of humor, pathos, intrigue, and mystery, not least in the utterly charming dialogue and razor-sharp wit, which characterized each individually wonderfully and moved the plot along at a suitably action-packed pace."
