A Very Happy Thanksgiving
by Elise Noble
Heartthrob Marc di Gregorio is living the Hollywood dream—a luxury home, fast cars, a string of beautiful women on speed dial. But appearances can be deceptive. All he wants is a cold beer, peace and quiet, and the woman he lost a decade ago because he couldn’t admit he might be wrong.
Phaedra Roebuck—aka Dusk—lives in the shadows. As part of a secretive special ops team, she has top-notch training, toys that would make a movie villain weep, and a team of smart, deadly women at her back. But there’s something missing. The man she ditched a decade ago because she couldn’t admit she might be wrong.
When Marc disappears from the set of his latest movie just before Thanksgiving, Phae can’t simply stand back and wait for the local cops to do their job. Finding a missing man is all in a day’s work for the Choir, but can Phae and Marc kiss and make up along the way?

A Thanksgiving Full of Gratitude
by Katie Winters
Six months ago, Janine Grimson learned her best friend had an affair with her husband of twenty years -- at the engagement party of their oldest daughter, Maggie.
In the wake of that horrific event, Janine rekindled her relationship with her mother, Nancy, moved full-time to Martha's Vineyard, and found herself stronger, better, and brighter than ever before.
Now, news from Manhattan shakes her to the core.
Something tragic has happened to her ex-husband, Jack Potter -- the only man she's ever truly loved -- just two weeks before Thanksgiving.
The tragedy tears a hole through Janine's heart, especially as she watches her daughters deal with the pain. They never asked for any of this and now Janine is left to pick up the pieces.
But what's more: Jack's tragedy results in a terribly lonely woman -- a woman Janine had thought she would love all her life-long. Maxine Aubert, the woman who'd wronged her in every possible way. What's to be done about her?
Dive into book five of The Katama Bay Series -- a heartwarming journey of motherly and sisterly love, healing, and promise for better days, all on the island of Martha's Vineyard, with its gorgeous ocean views, its endless summer days, and its bubbly cast of islanders.

Choosing gratitude : your journey to joy
by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth
Gratitude is a choice. If we fail to chose it, by default we choose ingratitude. And once allowed into the heart, ingratitude does not come by itself but with a lot of other seedy companions that only succeed in stealing joy. To not choose gratitude - daily and deliberately - is more costly than we usually realize. And when we do choose a lifestyle of heartfelt, humble gratitude, we are mindful of the benefits received from our gracious Savior and those He has placed around us.
By intentionally thanking God and others, bitterness and entitlement are replaced with joy and the humble realization of just how undeserving we really are. Derived from a popular Revive Our Hearts radio series, Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy challenges and equips the reader to live a life of intention. A life based on thankfulness - for the freedom Christ has provided and for the blessings of others.
