They met by accident and found a love they never expected. A journey they hadn’t anticipated. A life they never thought possible.

FOUR BOOKS. 300+ 5-Star reviews. A BOXSET YOU WON’T PUT DOWN.


Following her husband’s untimely death, Wendy Miller’s life revolves around her adult children, but when she accepts an invitation to her late husband’s grandmother’s birthday party in London, she meets a dashing, silver-haired Texan cowboy in Dublin who captures her heart.

Bruce McCarthy did his best to hold his family and ranch together after his wife died in a car accident ten years before, but following a recent health scare, he decides to live every day as if it were his last and books a flight to Ireland to find his Irish family.

The captivating woman he accidentally spills coffee on one morning stirs something inside him, and Bruce wonders if God might be giving him a second chance at love…

As they meet again in London, Paris and Venice, their friendship grows deeper, but while Bruce is eager to take their friendship further, Wendy is unsure if her adult children will accept a new man in her life, especially when one of them still blames God for allowing her father to die prematurely.

If Wendy can trust God to take care of the details, and Bruce can overcome his fears of his cancer returning, they may just discover that you’re never too old to fall in love…

If you like real-life characters, faith-filled families, and friendships that become something more, then you’ll love Juliette Duncan’s inspirational second-chance, mature-age romance.

You will enjoy Bruce and Wendy's story in this series. They have become like friends to me. It is a story that follows the lives of two middle age people who fall in love and bridge country barriers and family issues with grown children. The work of the Lord Jesus throughout the lives of this blended family is inspirational. Please get a copy of this box set and meet a couple who even when life doesn't make sense, lean on Jesus to get them through. Another great series from Juliette Duncan. I received copies of the books in this series, but have freely and without obligation chosen to share my own thoughts.

A Time for Everything Series Boxset Books 1-4 from Juliette Duncan is a very moving heartwarming clean romance. It is a well-written novel with subjects that move you deeply. People's love for each other and their faith are deeply moving. They are great characters that you will really love and it is a shame when the book is out because you don't really want to say goodbye to them. Juliette duncan surpasses herself with these great Christian series.

A Time to Treasure is a sweet story of a second chance at love between an Australian widow and a Texas cowboy widower! Bruce and Wendy meet when they are both visiting Ireland! They are excellent protagonists as they trust God to work out where to live and how to bring their adult children around
Juliette Duncan deals with difficult subjects in A Time to Care. Newlyweds, Bruce and Wendy face situations with her adult children while establishing their new life together. You will enjoy the setting in Australia while wondering how children raised in a Christian home can make such poor decisions.A Time to Abide: Wendy and Bruce are excellent Christian examples of trusting God through trials! Wendy's daughter Natalie and son-in-law Adam learn to trust God even when the biological father shows up and contests their adoption of their niece. Life isn't easy in A Time to Abide but God is there through dealing with death, loss, adoption and homosexuality in a family member!
A Time to Rejoice: Bruce and Wendy married after their children were grown but that doesn't stop them from being concerned and wanting to help them. My heart went out to Andrew who blamed himself for his mother's death since he was driving when she was killed in an auto accident. God can send the right people to us at the right time. Even when Bruce and Wendy are given devastating news, God is with them.
I received A Time for Everything Series from the publisher. This is my honest opinion.

Another great series by this author! Wendy and Bruce have to work through some difficult situations with joining two families on two continents. Through lots of prayer, together and separately, they lead their families through the trials. Not everything is easy as with all human nature, family members fall with sin in their lives. But God directs Wendy and Bruce in how to help their family members back to Him. I was given an advance complimentary copy of this book. The thoughts here are my own.

A Time For Everything Series

These books were amazing and cudo’s to the author. What a great series and all the different bible verses really set each story off. These were all stories that I could have and did live through some in more ways than one. I lost my husband to cancer in2011. And now I live with my son and grandchildren,they fulfill my life. Thank you Juliette for another round of great writing and story telling. This is my review of a free book and in my own words. Norma Gorrill

I give these stories a five star. I loved these stories about finding love again. Wendy McCarthy finds love and a husband after losing her husband .Bruce stepped into her family and show such passion for her daughter who was pregnant and was living on the street. Wonderful stories you need to read. I highly recommend reading these books . This is a series of four books. There is tragedy, loss and forgiveness. I was given an ARC of these stories.

An easy read

I found this set enjoyable. It read like one long novel. The plot was somewhat unbelievable for me as Wendy and Bruce appeared more wealthy than I can imagine. Their ability to travel at a moment's notice and bring entire families across thousands of miles seemed a bit too much. However, their love of each other and their mustering faith in God made the reading worthwhile.

Ms. Duncan has written an emotional series about the course of a family's life.
These stories are so heartwarming and real to life.
When you read the first one you can't wait for the next one.
The characters in these Christian romances are so down to earth and authentic.
The plots are honest that you just keep reading until the end.
She is an amazing author.

These books are a great story. They can be read individually but do work best as a series.
Wendy & Bruce have very different lives and lifestyles but their common faith is a link that changes everything for them both.
It was great to read a story about an older couple and second chances all round.

Great set of Stories.....

I've enjoyed reading this set of four stories, the author has done a great job of selecting the characters and putting them together in a very entertaining account. The author has put these stories of life and romance in an orderly fashion, the stories are best if read in order. Wonderful work.

Living Faith

This story is a testament of people living their faith. Life isn't easy for Christians, but God never forsakes us. This box set of books goes thru love, heartache, loss and indescribable joy. There are many passages of scripture that helps the reader feel the power of God in each situation in the story.

Good read

I enjoyed the 4 book set via Kindle. Realistic. Heartwarming. Author wove in appropriate scripture without being preachy. Usually too guide or affirm a character. Good clean romance. Weaving stories of different family members together in an overall coherent story. It was good escapism during the stay at home pandemic. Jeanne McCallum

I really enjoyed reading this series and each book built on the next one, although they can be read separately. I couldn't wait at the end of each book to start the next one and see where the story goes. There are some vey unexpected turns that will keep you turning the pages.
I received an ARC, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Such a great read! This family deals with real life issues that are not candy coated. They put their trust in God even when it seems like He is far away.

I enjoyed the first 3 books in this series more than the last one though it is good too. The first 3 deal with the Australian family where the last one deals with the son of the American family. It proves we all have similar problems in life & how to handle them in a Christian way. Very good job.

didn’t want this series to end

Through all the ups and downs of these 2 families’ lives I laughed and I cried. I’m sure I neglected so much in my own life as I binge read the books all in a row. Incredible writing….so many layers to the stories.
