    Prairie by Chautona Havig

    PrairiePrairie by Chautona Havig

    Jessa Davidson enjoyed a lifelong fascination and desire for life on the prairie. However, she never expected that fascination to become reality. A far cry from her apartment in Pittsburgh, the world of Prairie is more than just a change in geography – it’s a change of life. In Prairie, Jessa examines the innermost parts of her soul and discovers desires she never knew she had.

    From the moment she awoke, transported from the cold Pennsylvania winter, on the sunbathed summer prairie, she knew her life would never be the same.

    The people of Prairie welcomed her and accepted her – almost without question, but so much of her life changed in that moment – her hopes, dreams, values, and the absolutes of things like time – that she feared accepting her new life as reality.

    Is Prairie the dreams of her life come true – or her worst nightmare. Is it real? Is it permanent? Or will she awake to discover that she’s lost her mind – or worse, her life?

    And the biggest question on Jessa’s heart? Does she care?

    by Michael & Gina Spehn

    Matt Kell and Cathy Spehn had known each other since grade school. As adults, they each married, lived in their hometown and attended the same church. Their kids attended school together. Matt died at home on Christmas Day after a three-year battle with cancer, leaving behind his wife, Gina, and two young boys. Prior to his death, Matt recorded a video diary for his sons, which included his desire and expectations that their mom would love again. After attending Matt’s inspirational funeral and reaching out to Gina with offers of support, Cathy was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer. She died only seventeen days later, leaving behind her husband, Michael, and three young children. In her final hours, Cathy instructed Michael to ‘call Gina Kell.’

    The Color of Rain illuminates the stepping-stones of loss and healing that ultimately led to a joyful new life for Michael, Gina and their five children. Their path to becoming a modern day Brady Bunch was filled with grief, laughter, and a willingness to be restored to a new and even better life, despite the inevitable resistance they faced. As the dual first-person narrative reveals what it is like to walk through loss and love simultaneously, readers receive an intimate look at how this ordinary group of people lived, died, and ultimately persevered through extraordinary circumstances.

    New York’s social darling just woke up in a nightmare: Oklahoma. Problem is, it’s right where God wants her.

    Bella Kirkwood had it all: A-list friends at her prestigious private school, Broadway in her backyard, and Daddy’s MasterCard in her wallet. Then her father, a plastic surgeon to the stars, decided to trade her mother in for a newer model.

    When Bella’s mom falls in love with a man she met on the Internet – a factory worker with two bratty sons – Bella has to pack up and move in with her new family in Truman, Oklahoma. On a farm no less!

    Forced to trade her uber-trendy NYC lifestyle for down-home charm, Bella feels like a pair of Rock & Republic jeans in a sea of Wranglers.

    At least some of the people in her new high school are pretty cool. Especially the hunky football player who invites her to lunch. And maybe even the annoying – but kinda hot – editor of the school newspaper.

    But before long, Bella smells something rotten in the town of Truman, and it’s not just the cow pasture. With her savvy reporter’s instincts, she is determined to find the story behind all the secrets.

    How can a girl go on when her charmed life is gone and God appears to be giving her the total smackdown?

    Healing Stones by Nancy Rue

    Healing StonesHealing Stones by Nancy Rue

    With one flash of a camera, Demi’s private life becomes public news. She doesn’t know it yet, but her healing has just begun.

    Christian college professor Demitria Costanas had vowed to end her affair with a colleague. But she gives into temptation one last time… and a lurking photographer captures her weakness for all to see. Quite literally, she’s the woman caught in adultery. And almost everyone – herself included – has a stone to throw.

    Enter Sullivan Crisp, a decidedly unorthodox psychologist with his own baggage. He’s well-known for his quirky sense of humor and incorporation of “game show” theology into his counseling sessions. And yet there’s something more he offers… hope for a fresh start.

    Reluctantly the two of them begin an uplifting, uneven journey filled with healing and grace. By turns funny and touching, this story explores the ways humans hurt each other and deceive themselves. And it shows the endlessly creative means God uses to turn stones of accusation and shame into works of beauty that lead us onto the path of healing.

    An auspicious debut for a candid yet tender series about pain, healing, and God’s invitation for second chances.
