While Love Stirs by Lorna Seilstad

       After graduating from Fannie Farmer’s School of Cookery in 1910, Charlotte Gregory is ready to stir things up. She is thrilled to have the opportunity to travel, lecture, and give cooking demonstrations on the very latest kitchen revolution–the gas stove–and certainly doesn’t mind that the gas company has hired the handsome Lewis Mathis to perform at her lectures. Lewis encourages her work, especially her crusade to introduce fresh, appetizing, nutritious food to those convalescing in hospitals. But young hospital superintendent Dr. Joel Brooks is not convinced any changes should be made–especially by this outspoken young woman.
       When Charlotte and Joel are coerced into planning a fund-raising gala for the hospital, will this combustible pair explode?

One Perfect Spring by Irene Hannon

       Claire Summers is a determined, independent single mother who is doing her best to make lemonade out of the lemons life has handed her. Keith Watson is a results-oriented workaholic with no time for a social life. As the executive assistant to a local philanthropic businessman, he’s used to fielding requests for donations. But when a letter from Claire’s eleven-year-old daughter reaches his desk, everything changes. The girl isn’t asking for money, but for help finding the long-lost son of an elderly neighbor.
       As Keith digs reluctantly into this complicated assignment, he has no idea how intertwined his life and Claire’s will become–nor how one little girl’s kindhearted request will touch so many lives and reap so many blessings.

One More Last Chance by Cathleen Armstrong

       Sarah Cooley has come home to Last Chance, New Mexico, for one reason–because it doesn’t change. After an engagement gone bad with a man who wanted to change everything about her, Sarah is more than ready for the town whose motto may as well be, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
       Chris Reed, on the other hand, wants nothing more than to spark some change in the little town. As the new owner of the Dip ‘n’ Dine, he’s shaking things up to draw folks from all over the Southwest into his restaurant.
       As it turns out, the winds of change are blowing into Last Chance–just not in the ways that Sarah or Chris might expect.

Network of Deception by Spencer E. Moses

       Eric Stone left the CIA to start his own spy agency, one that wouldn’t find itself at the mercy of political gridlock.

When these two passionate patriots are thrust together into a life or death struggle against a common enemy, the sparks and bullets begin to fly. On the surface, they’re engaged in a high-stakes effort to prevent an unacceptable shift of power in the Middle East. But not far beneath, another battle rages. Can they faithfully serve their countries and their God? And will the harsh realities of duty squelch the attraction they’re beginning to feel?
