Hard 5


Book Description

Five ruthless ranchers have bought my farm, and they want to include me in the deal. After Pa dies and I discover he's mortgaged our farm to pay gambling debts, I'm forced to sell my home and only asset. On auction day, I watch my elusive neighbors, the Bradford brothers, buy the land that's been in my family for generations. Left with nothing but the clothes on my back and a small bag of personal possessions, I risk sleeping in the barn for one night. That's where they find me. Colt, Cary, and Cash are triplets with steely gray eyes and powerful bodies hardened by the land. Sawyer and Scott, their twin brothers, are dark and watchful, with big hands made for taming horses and driving cattle. I tell them it's temporary, and I'll be moving on, but they won't hear of it. They offer me a job, and I take it despite the risks. Forced to live with them, I discover the five gorgeous brothers aren't the ruthless cowboys I imagined they were. I've never been with a man, and suddenly five want to make me a woman. But I'm not the only rancher who's lost out to the Bradfords, and when trouble comes calling, will our newly discovered passion and fragile trust be enough to keep us together, or will everything fall apart? This is a standalone cowboy reverse harem romance in the Multiple Love Series. Each book can be read in isolation but characters do make appearances across the series.




Love You Hard


Book Description

Abby Maslin shares an inspiring story of resilience and commitment in a deeply affecting new memoir. After her husband suffered a traumatic brain injury, the couple worked together as he recovered—and they learned to love again. When Abby Maslin's husband, TC, didn't make it home on August 18, 2012, she knew something was terribly wrong. Her fears were confirmed when she learned that her husband had been beaten by three men and left for dead mere blocks from home, all for his cell phone and debit card. The days and months that followed were a grueling test of faith. As TC recovered from a severe traumatic brain injury that left him unable to speak and walk, Abby faced the challenge of caring for—and loving—a husband who now resembled a stranger. Love You Hard is the raw, unflinchingly honest story of a young love left broken, and the resilience required to mend a life and remake a marriage. Told from the caregiver's perspective, this book is a daring exploration of true love: what it means to love beyond language, beyond abilities, and into the place that reveals who we really are. At the heart of Abby and TC's unique and captivating story are the universal truths that bind us all. This is a tale of living and loving wholeheartedly, learning to heal after profound grief, and choosing joy in the wake of tragedy.




Always True


Book Description

Follow bestselling author, speaker, and pastor James MacDonald as he delivers the biblical hope of God’s promises in the midst of life’s storms. 2 Peter 1:3 refers to certain portions of God’s Word as exceedingly great and precious promises. Great promises are ones that don’t fall apart during difficult times; they reveal hope in the midst of the storm. Precious promises are ones that we find strong enough to hold us up and resilient enough to get us through. God’s promises become exceedingly great and precious to us when nothing else will do. By way of digging into the theology of God’s Promises, Pastor James uncovers 5 major categories of promise in the Bible and the 5 areas about which God repeatedly makes promises. From what to do with fear and doubt to God’s goodness, help, and victory—the Bible has much to say about God’s presence in our difficulty. Last year, Pastor James released When Life is Hard to point you toward hope in the midst of trials. Now, Always True will point you to God’s promises, which are always true.
