EMBER
A DIFFERENT SORT OF
At twenty-two, college student Ember Monroe thought she’d found her happily-ever-after in Quinn Abbott. All it took was one ill-fated night and the worst betrayal imaginable to rip those dreams to shreds. Now, almost a decade later, Ember’s happily-ever-after has a new look as she raises the two daughters of her deceased best friend. With a business she loves and a family she never expected, Ember has all she wants…until Quinn comes back into her life determined to break her heart a second time.
HE ONLY WANTS HIS FAMILY
Quinn went to prison for a crime he didn’t commit and it cost him every good thing in his life. When new evidence sets him free, all Quinn wants is a fresh chance with his children. Unfortunately the only way to repair his family is to tear Ember’s apart.
GOD HAS HIS WORK CUT OUT FOR
Can Ember find the forgiveness required to embrace the blessings God has for her? Can Quinn rebuild the family that was taken from him? It’ll take a miracle…Maybe God has one.
HOLLY
She’s finally living her best
Holly Hoffman hasn’t had an easy life. Thanks to parents who were more concerned with their drug habits than their daughters, she’s been making her own way for as long as she can remember. At twenty-four, she finally has her life as close to perfect as she can make it. Work is fulfilling, she has a new set of crafting friends, and the home she shares with her sister is more stable than any she had as a child. Perfect disintegrates when the nativity set she’s painting for a client comes to life in her hands. Delusion or the act of a God she’s never believed in?
He never believed in love at first sight until he
Riley Soeurs returns to Garfield to manage the local food bank with great expectations and more than a little naivety. When God places the gorgeous and jaded Holly Hoffman in his path, complete with all the bitter baggage of her youth, he realizes that there’s more to his return than the food bank. There’s just one problem. How can Riley offer Holly the help God is urging him to give without further endangering his already smitten heart?
Relentless
Between the nativity set and Riley, Holly is getting a crash course in love and forgiveness. Can she accept the healing that’s being offered, or will her stubborn heart keep her mired in the past?
MAGGIE
SHE FINALLY HAS HER DREAM IN SIGHT.
Maggie Hart hasn’t always made the best choices. When the life she was trying to build for her kids is derailed by charges of neglect, she found promise instead of despair. The promise of getting her kids back home where they belong. The promise of making a better life for them with Christ at the center of their home. The promise of her own happily-ever-after with her children’s handsome foster father. One good deed will put all of those dreams in jeopardy.
HIS OBLIGATIONS OR HIS HEART?
Single kindergarten teacher Randy Caswell has his hands more than full when he takes two foster kids into his home. Caring for a newborn and a five-year-old should have turned his peaceful life upside down. Instead, it brought love to every corner of his heart, not just for the kids but for their mother. When the woman he loves is accused of a crime she didn’t commit, he feels obligated to put his duty to Max and Mariah ahead of his love for their mother.

About the author
Sharon Srock
44 books299 followersSmall-town Oklahoma and the friendships they produce are embedded in Sharon Srock’s heart. After spending her first fifteen years on the move, living in fourteen homes and attending thirteen schools, she landed in a tiny central Oklahoma community and made it her own. As someone who’s been blessed to be a part of the same hometown church for more than five decades, Sharon writes stories of hope built from her own unique perspective—stories that demonstrate a sisterhood formed not by blood but by heart, where ordinary women are able to do extraordinary things thanks to the friends who surround them and the faith that pulls them through. Sharon still lives in the middle of nowhere, Oklahoma, with her husband and three very large dogs. When she isn’t writing, she loves to read, cook, and travel. One of these days, she’s going to figure out how to do all three at the same time.
