    Dark waters are rising. Who will stay afloat?

    Architect Vance Nolan has crafted a marvel – shining apartments floating in the peaceful cove of a winding river. The project is partially occupied and about to make investors rich when a sinkhole gives way.

    Torrential rains quickly flood the cove, leaving a handful of builders, investors, and residents cut off from the rest of the world.

    The motley group is bitterly divided over how to survive.

    Vance insists they wait for rescue. Developer Tony Dean wants to strike out into the darkness. And single-mom Danielle Clement, obligated to each man and desperate to protect her young son, Simeon, isn’t sure which one is wiser.

    Power failure, an unnatural daytime darkness, explosions, and a murder expose hidden intentions and dark histories. Then Simeon spots something strange underwater – beautiful, shifting lights in the dark depths.

    In this watery world, everyone’s secrets will eventually come to light. And deliverance may mean more than just getting out alive.

    You Are What You Think

    You Are What You ThinkYou Are What You Think by David Stoop

    “Attitude is everything.” It’s what makes the difference between those who succeed and those who fail. And it’s easy to see – in other people. It’s not as easy to recognize when our own attitude needs adjustment, or to know how to change it.

    In You Are What You Think, David Stoop shows readers how to use self-talk to make positive changes in their attitudes and beliefs. Self-talk can be private speech, thoughts, or external speech, all of which shape emotions and behavior for good or bad. This popular book, previously published as Self-Talk, will help readers overcome stress, guilt, depression, anxiety, and anger; release the power of faith; choose healthy, positive thoughts; and more.

    The Wedding DressThe Wedding Dress by Rachel Hauck

    Four brides. One Dress. A tale of faith, redemption, and timeless love.

    Charlotte owns a chic Birmingham bridal boutique. Dressing brides for their big day is her gift… and her passion. But with her own wedding day approaching, why can’t she find the perfect dress… or feel certain she should marry Tim?

    Then Charlotte discovers a vintage dress in a battered trunk at an estate sale. It looks brand-new – shimmering with pearls and satin, hand-stitched and timeless in its design. But where did it come from? Who wore it? Who welded the lock shut and tucked the dog tags in that little sachet? Who left it in the basement for a ten-year-old girl? And what about the mysterious man in the purple vest who insists the dress had been “redeemed.”

    Charlotte’s search for the gown’s history – and its new bride – begins as a distraction from her sputtering love life. But it takes on a life of its own as she comes to know the women who have worn the dress. Emily from 1912. Mary Grace from 1939. Hillary from 1968. Each with her own story of promise, pain, and destiny. And each with something unique to share. For woven within the threads of the beautiful hundred-year-old gown is the truth about Charlotte’s heritage, the power of courage and faith, and the timeless beauty of finding true love.
