Blurb for Love Will Find a Way by Pamela Meyers:

Mix a little intrigue, mystery, and romance

with the flavor of the Lake Geneva area

for one delectable read!

April Love has always wanted a place of her own to launch her dream catering business of Lovin’ Spoonfuls. But she had no idea that Kitty, her eccentric, well-meaning aunt, would buy her the turn-of-the-century Canoga Lake house she admired from the outside, until she saw the psychedelic decorating nightmare it was on the inside.

While redecorating, April and her handsome hunk boyfriend, Marc Thorne, discover a narrow room hidden between two closet walls—and a young girl’s faded diary and ledger from the 1930s. What they reveal are more secrets about the old house than April’s ready for. Worse, every time she goes into the house, she has an eerie feeling something sinister is about to happen. Then she starts to hear noises, like someone is walking around upstairs….

Bio for Amy Lillard:

Amy Lillard is an award-winning writer who loves reading romance novels from contemporary to Amish. These two genres met in her first book, 2012’s Saving Gideon. Born and bred in Mississippi, she now lives with her husband and son in Oklahoma.

Blurb for Katie’s Choice by Amy Lillard:

Katie Rose Fisher loved Samuel Beachy with an intensity that shook their Amish district. No one doubted they would one day marry, until Samuel turned his back on the church and joined the world of the English.

Alone now in Clover Ridge, Katie Rose dedicates her life to God and the school children she teaches each day. Although she secretly longs for more, Katie knows God’s hand is at work, and she is happy.

News correspondent Zane Carson never even knew Oklahoma had an Amish community until he got the chance to live among them and learn about their day-to-day activities. Their simple way of life is intriguing, but not half as much as the young teacher.

Katie Rose is flattered over the attention she receives from Zane, but she has resolved to never marry. Even if she were to entertain the idea, it surely couldn’t be with an outsider like Zane.

Never one prone to the restraints of organized religion, Zane finds a comfort in the rituals and blessings in the day to day righteous living of this small Amish community. He finds himself, God, and love with Katie Rose.

But as Zane draws closer to Katie Rose, Samuel comes back to repent his ways and return to his place at her side. Can Zane convince Katie Rose that he is committed to adapting to her way of life, or will Samuel win her affec- tions back for himself once again?

Blurb for Paige Torn by Erynn Mangum:

 

Everyone knows they can count on Paige Alder. But between volunteering at church, putting in overtime at work, and helping her best friend plan an anniversary party, she’s lucky to grab a cheese stick for dinner. She can’t even remember the last time she had a few minutes to relax or dig into God’s Word. Then she meets laid-back Tyler, an attractive, Jesus-loving guy. Will he be able to help Paige get her priorities on track?

Bio for Lillian Duncan:

Lillian Duncan lives in Ohio with her husband, four parrots, one Jack Russell, and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel that she’s thinking about renaming Clifford since he keeps growing and growing and…. 

Her website (www.lillianduncan.net)describes her books as Stories of Faith mingled with…murder and mayhem. She writes the type of books she loves to read–suspense with a touch of romance. Depending on her mood, some books have more romance than others.

She’s been a Speech Pathologist for over thirty years. Whether as an educator, a writer, or a speech pathologist, she believes in the power of words to transform lives, especially God’s Word.

Blurb for Deception by Lillian Duncan:

Twins are supposed to have an unbreakable bond, but Patti and Jamie have serious relationship issues. They haven’t spoken since Jamie ruined Patti’s upcoming nuptials years ago.

When a niece she knows nothing about telephones, Patti must unravel the yarn of Jamie’s life and her mysterious disappearance.

Detective Carter Caldwell takes his job seriously, and it’s his job to keep Patti and her niece safe. But Patti is determined to help find her sister.

As the investigation grows more dangerous, Carter begrudgingly admits the safest place for Patti is at his side. Each step in their journey leads them closer to the truth but pulls them further down a road filled with danger and deception, where each will battle for survival and the lives of countless Americans.
