Choosing to See by Mary Beth Chapman

From the beginning, Mary Beth Chapman's life was not how she planned. All she wanted was a calm, peaceful life of stability and control. Instead, God gave her an award-winning singer/songwriter husband, crazy schedules, and a houseful of creatively rambunctious children. And then, she experienced the tragedy she never could have imagined.

In Choosing to See, Mary Beth unveils her struggle to allow God to write the story of her life, both the happy chapters and the tragic ones. And as the story unfolds, she's been forced to wrestle with some of life's biggest questions: Where is God when things fall apart? Why does God allow terrible things to happen? How can I survive hard times?

No matter where you find yourself in your own life story, you will treasure the way Mary Beth shows that even in the hard times, there is hope if you choose to see.

Accompanied only by her majestic hawk, she travels throughout the Rocky Mountains in search of injustice, determined to stamp it out wherever it's found.

In this exciting historical romance set in the late 1800's, murder, intrigue, kidnapping, and questions of faith will keep you in suspense until the final pages.

Sky Blue by Travis Thrasher

Colin Scott reads people for a living. They bare their souls on paper and he sells them to the highest bidder. His work as a top literary agent representing big name authors has turned his youthful ambitions into everything he ever wanted.

But Colin's passion for molding new writers into proven talent has somehow become aggravating and routine. On top of this mounting cynicism and professional monotony, Colin and his wife are trying desperately to have a baby.

Every decision he has ever made now has a question mark after it. And his usually clear-cut motivations are leading toward a nervous breakdown.

And then, on a much-needed escape to Cancun, tragedy strikes. Colin's life is changed forever.
