Forced into the world of sex trafficking at age ten by her stepfather, nineteen-year-old Jessi Campbell only wants to forget the years of hell that she endured. Court dates, parole hearings, and countless hours of therapy have finally slowed. But her growing faith in God still seems too weak to fight off the looming nightmares and oppressive guilt that hangs over any normalcy in her life.Then she meets Kip Parks, a promiscuous, fun-loving classmate, and her stringent, rule-lead lifestyle is threatened by his adventurous and wild spirit. Kip forces her out of her comfort zone, insisting on things like trust and openness, but she lives in fear of what his response will be when he finds out about her secret. Jessi finds herself caught in a whirlwind of having someone treat her like an ordinary person; she slowly begins to overcome her past as a victim, and starts to actually live-even sharing her faith with skeptical Kip. But what will happen when she finds out that Kip hasn't been honest with her? What will she do when she finds out that he views her as so much more than ordinary?

"First, do no harm..." It's the start of my oath as a doctor, and breaking that oath is how I began my career. Only I didn't just do harm, I watched a man die right in front of me. And not just any man-a man I hated. I thought his death would bring me peace, but it haunts me to this day. Every close call sparks memories of what I did to him, to me, to her. I have to go back and face what I've done or end my career. Seeing her hits me harder than the regret. She's still so beautiful with long, dark hair, bright amber eyes, luscious curves. She still dominates my heart, my mind, my bed. But she's different now-stronger, bolder, unafraid. We're a mess, tangled up in a web I created. But I'm determined to heal these wounds, to fix this break. One thing is certain, I won't say goodbye to her again. (A STAND-ALONE, contemporary romance in the "Bayside Heroes" world. Small-town, second-chance romance with a touch of suspense. No cheating. No cliffhanger.)

Yet many who sit next to us in the pew at church fit that description, says author Wesley Hill. As a celibate gay Christian, Hill gives us a glimpse of what it looks like to wrestle firsthand with God's ''No'' to same-sex relationships. What does it mean for gay Christians to live faithful to God while struggling with the challenge of their homosexuality? What is God's will for believers who experience same-sex desires? Those who choose celibacy are often left to deal with loneliness and the hunger for relationships. How can gay Christians experience God's favor and blessing in the midst of a struggle that for many brings a crippling sense of shame and guilt? Weaving together reflections from his own life and the lives of other Christians, such as Henri Nouwen and Gerard Manley Hopkins, Hill offers a fresh perspective on these questions. He advocates neither unqualified ''healing'' for those who struggle, nor their accommodation to temptation, but rather faithfulness in the midst of brokenness. ''I hope this book may encourage other homosexual Christians to take the risky step of opening up their lives to others in the body of Christ,'' Hill writes. ''In so doing, they may find, as I have, by grace, that being known is spiritually healthier than remaining behind closed doors, that the light is better than the darkness.

I saved his life . . . and I had much to demand in return. When he washed up on shore, I knew my prayers had been answered, and that I, Lady Chelsea Campion, need no longer fear poverty and heartbreak. To secure my family's estate, all I needed was a child. Handsome, clearly noble-born, and with no memory of his previous life, the mysterious man was perfect. All I had to do was visit his bedchamber and seduce him. I had expected him to be a skillful, scandalously wonderful lover, but once in his arms I was overcome by something more than mere passion. I had fallen hopelessly, desperately in love. My plan has gone shockingly awry. But I will not give up a man who makes me feel such wicked ecstasy. No matter his true identity, no matter the secrets he struggles to remember, I will do anything in this world to make this stranger love me.

Alexander Popper can't stop remembering. Four years old when his father tossed him into Lake Michigan, he was told, Sink or swim, kid. In his mind, he's still bobbing in that frigid water. The rest of this novel's vivid cast of characters also struggle to remain afloat: Popper's mother, stymied by an unhappy marriage, seeks solace in the relentless energy of Chicago; his brother, Leo, shadow boss of the family, retreats into books; paternal grandparents, Seymour and Bernice, once high fliers, now mourn for long lost days; his father, a lawyer and would-be politician obsessed with his own success, fails to see that the family is falling apart; and his college girlfriend, the fiercely independent Kat, wrestles with impossible choices. Covering four generations of the Popper family, Peter Orner illuminates the countless ways that love both makes us whole and completely unravels us. A comic and sorrowful tapestry of memory of connection and disconnection, Love and Shame and Love explores the universals with stunning originality and wisdom.
