Blurb for A Family for Faith:
When Faith Hagin sees widower cop Gabe Reynolds every day in her coffee shop, she can’t help but feel for the struggling single dad. She’s raised a teenager of her own—and sadly, knows what not to do. But thanks to his matchmaking preteen daughter, Chelsea, the whole town’s praying for Gabe to find a wife! Even though Faith thinks she’s content being just friends, spending time with him and Chelsea starts to feel like a fresh start at having a family. And their love may be the answer to everyone’s prayers.

Blurb for Throw the Devil off the Train:
Catherine heads west in the early 1880s to a fiancé she hasn’t seen in 17 years. She’s desperate for a change. Race heads west with a heart full of vengeance and a body aching for sleep. The only thing these two agree upon: they hate each other. Holdups, hijacks, kidnappings and gold mine swindles bring them together, then push them apart. Can the Lord make them at peace long enough to throw the devil off the train?
