She is now juggling two event planner jobs, but she hopes the family clan gathering she is organizing will launch her genealogy business.

When Declan accepts a caretaker position at the home of her Coffey family’s archenemy, Caity and Declan’s relationship becomes strained. Even her faithful companion Mac abandons her in Dublin for life in the country. Caity goes to Killybog to try to mend their relationship, but she unexpectedly takes over the caretaker duties.

Jimmy Spencer was only ten years old and scared to go into the woods behind his house. His older brother Steven would tell him stories about a man who lived in a cabin in the woods and liked to kill children with his sharp axe. During the day Jimmy's brother would dare him to go into the woods, but Jimmy was so scared that if he did he might be on the old man's chopping block behind his cabin. One day when Jimmy was playing in his backyard all alone, he thought he heard a voice coming from within the woods calling his name. Jimmy first thought it was the wind howling so he just kept bouncing the rubber ball off the back wall of his house. Then he'd thought he heard a voice again coming from within the woods. Sure enough, he did so he went to see who was calling his name. Just as he stepped foot in the woods his brother Steven jumped out of a bush. Jimmy just about jumped out of his pants. Steven started laughing and said, "What's the matter scaredy cat? Afraid the old man might get you." Jimmy replied, "That's not funny, you scared the crap out of me." Steven said, "You should have seen the look on your face, scaredy Cat." "Quit calling me scaredy cat. I'm going to tell Mom on you," said Jimmy in a frightened voice. "Go right ahead! Scaredy Cat! Scaredy Cat! I can't believe you're that scared to go into the woods. You're the biggest chicken I've ever met in my life," exclaimed Steven. "No, I'm not! I'll prove it to you. I'll go right now," said Jimmy in a shaky voice. "I'll be waiting, just to make sure you don't chicken out," laughed Steven. Jimmy set off into the dark thick forest all alone.

Now really? Do relationships really work? Is there a formula that will help it last? According to Val, relationships “that worked” were a thing of the past. Val was a young lady who had experienced a few hardships in her life. After losing her father (whom she cherished) to cancer and was betrayed by the one she was settling for as the man of her dreams, she became bitter toward relationships. Of course, they worked for some, but it was truly unrealistic to think that there was someone out there for everyone. Val’s faith faltered, and she strayed away from God and the church, but after a couple years of backsliding, she found her way back and was now determined to do things right according to the plan that God intended for her life. After years of being a third wheel to one of her best friends, Toni, and her man, could it be that her future rested behind the wheel of a squad car? A man that looked THIS good was NOT going to be faithful (or was he)? And HIS insecurities and double standards might serve as a warning (or would they)? Val enjoys a lot of firsts with her newfound love, and the two enjoy each other’s company as they get to know one another. But is that enough? Trust issues and conflicts could place the relationship on hold, but counsel from the other bestie and others help them to see the error of their ways, and feisty Val recognizes that God will not leave her side if she only trusts Him. And yes, there IS a formula. It’s written right there in His Word (the Bible), and when it’s all said and done, Val doesn’t mind waiting! Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. (Psalm 27:14)

The riveting second book in the acclaimed God series sweeps readers back to 1970s Ohio and the stunning story of secrets, survival, and a woman who refused to give up.

Now, after decades of heartache and severing ties with her dangerously unstable friend Rhoda, Annette’s real life has started to take shape… But her dark past won’t let her go. When an old secret scares away her fiancé, Annette settles with Pee Wee Davis, her on-again, off-again sweetheart since childhood.
