by Robin W. Pearson
Glory Pryor has carved out a life for herself in Gilmore, North Carolina, cultivating a community around her bookstore, By the Book. While her business is a success, she carries the weight of stories of her own she's never told anyone. She holds out hope that one day her estranged brother will turn up on her doorstep so she can finally learn where he' been all these years. Glory's husband Eli thinks she has her arms wrapped too tightly around the could-have-beens, and that it's time for them to let go of the store as they head into their retirement years. Glory has different opinions on that she s not ready to give up the dream she's built just yet. Then Adelle Simonette shows up with her young son, Bennett, and Glory's carefully controlled life begins to crumble. Newly widowed Adelle Simonette is a single mother trying to find her footing and navigate parenting her young son. Lost in her grief, one thing she's certain of is that she needs to confront Glory Pryor and everybody who knows her because the woman's been living a lie. Adelle thinks it's high time Glory made things right. But Adelle's finding it hard to tell the truth . . . and there will be no going back once she does.

Texas Forsaken
by Sherry Shindelar
The man who destroyed her life may be the only one who can save it. Seven years ago, Maggie Logan (Eyes-Like-Sky) lost everything she knew when a raid on a wagon train tore her from her family. As the memories of her past faded to nothing more than vague shadows, Maggie adapted-marrying a Comanche warrior, having a baby, and rebuilding her life. But in one terrible battle, the U.S. Cavalry destroys that life and she is taken captive again, this time by those who call themselves her people. Forced into a world she wants nothing to do with, Eyes-Like-Sky's only hope of protecting her child may be an engagement to the man who killed her husband. Enrolled in West Point to escape his overbearing father, Captain Garret Ramsey has graduated and finds himself assigned to the Texas frontier, witnessing the brutal Indian War in which both sides commit atrocities. Plagued by guilt for his own role, Garret seeks redemption by taking responsibility for the woman he widowed and her baby. Though he is determined to do whatever it takes to protect them, is he willing to risk everything for a woman whose heart is buried in a grave? Or is there hope she might heal to love once more?

by Denise Weimer
A frontier scout, a healing widow, and a desperate fight for peace.At the farthest Georgia outpost this side of hostile Creek Territory in 1813, Jared Lockridge serves his country as a scout to redeem his father's botched heritage.

Then he comes across a burning cabin and a traumatized woman just widowed by a fatal shot.Freed from a cruel marriage, Esther Andrews agrees to winter at the Lockridge homestead to help Jared's pregnant sister-in-law. Lame in one foot, Esther has always known she is secondhand goods, but the gentle carpenter-turned-scout draws her heart with as much skill as he creates furniture from wood. His family's love offers hope even as violence erupts along the frontier-and Jared's investigation into local incidents brings danger to their doorstep. Yet how could Esther ever hope a loyal man like Jared would choose her over a fine lady?
