"This heartwarming women's fiction series from beloved New York Times bestselling author Mary Alice Monroe centers on Marietta Colson Muir, a dowager of Charleston society who has retired to her historic summer home on Sullivan's Island called Conquest, and her three granddaughters Carson, Eudora, and Harper. It's summer once again on idyllic Sullivan's Island, but Eudora, or Dora as she's affectionately called by her family, is feeling anything but perfect. With a perpetually withdrawn son and an impending divorce, the pressure is just too much to handle, and Dora cracks, suffering what the doctors are calling 'Broken Heart' syndrome. Mamaw, Lucille, Harper, and Carson all rally around Dora to support her and nurse her back to health--however, it seems Dora isn't the only one falling apart this summer. Between Lucille's health scare and an unexpected surprise that has Carson reconsidering her life's direction, it looks like all the women of Sullivan's Island could use some TLC. When Sullivan's is hit with a tropical storm, it will be up to the three sisters to band together and weather the tempest together--both the one outside their windows, and the raging sea of emotions within each one of them" --

On a cold, snowy night, Haswell Magruder makes a decision that will have a profound effect on his own life as well as the lives of all those he loves. A wounded Confederate soldier appears at the family’s Virginia farm, and Haswell convinces his mother and sister to take the man in, despite the certain repercussions if the enemy Yankees were to catch them in such a “traitorous” act. Unfortunately, this is precisely what happens, setting off a horrific chain of events that leaves Haswell’s mother dead and the farmhouse burned to the ground. After leading his younger sister to safety with relatives, Haswell sets out on his journey in search of his older brother, a Confederate soldier. His quest is also a passage into manhood, as he experiences the last bloody days of the Civil War. Skillful storytelling, well-developed characters, and a fast-paced plot distinguish this compelling family story by an award-winning author.

Readers will be enthralled and enraptured with this irresistible tale." —Romantic Times "Dancing on the Wind is another A+ read from one of the very best: I count on Mary Jo Putney for a compelling story with characters who live and breathed, and most of all, love. Lucien senses in Kit the change to regain a part of himself he had thought forever lost. Kit has always felt second-best, and finds it difficult to believe that she can trust in Lucien's love. Their love story is intense, emotional, and deeply satisfying." —Under The Covers "One of my favorite romances of all time." —All About Romance

The limitless God passes through His limited people to do the spectacular. It happened then, and it is happening now. I Am Mary tells the story of two biblical women— earthen vessels with the treasure, Christ, inside—and shares some current testimonies as well, demonstrating that God’s power has not diminished. Mary of Bethany became a resolute follower of Jesus. She had a stubborn love for the Lord. She could not leave His presence, not even to cook Him a meal! Somehow, even though this was before the transaction of the cross that made us one with Christ, Mary was so close to Jesus that she got a hint of what it meant to be made one with Christ. She became a picture of the church. Mary, mother of John Mark: Pentecost brought the move of the Holy Spirit so palpably to God’s community in the early days that even an arrogant king like Herod got taught a lesson. Those were indeed fascinating days when the raw power of God came down undiluted. The arrest of Peter by a daring Herod did stir up holy indignation in someone like Mary. She rose with boldness to open her house for the brethren to gather and call heaven down in fervent prayer. What happened in the prison that night could convince any doubter that heaven does open at the request of God’s saints on earth.
