Unfortunately, Mayfair’s older sister, Margaret, with the freckles and cute, turned-up nose, has the opposite effect. Worse, she’s his grandmother’s housekeeper and helper, so she’s always around and ready to push his buttons. At first he thinks she doesn’t care about his loss, before beginning to understand she’s facing her own struggles.

Every bone ached, every scar throbbed. His wrist no longer bent back fully, and on nights when he slept on his side without realizing it, he was unable to move that side without pain for most of the day. Caleb greeted this morning like any other, with an assessment of these pains. But I can still move, he thought as he rubbed his feet. He squeezed his leg with his sword hand as hard as he could. The fingers pressed hard into flesh. He still had his battle grip. When that softened, he would be done, but it was still nearly as strong as when he had first picked up a weapon. Now he rolled onto his knees and paused, giving the joints time to loosen before he stood. He would be fine once he was up and his blood flowed through his veins. It was just the wakeup, he told himself. Just the wakeup. He exhaled slowly, then with a grunt, he forced his back to straighten and pushed off of the ground. The muscles relaxed, and he was up. As he stretched, he remembered the first time he had been roused by a training master many years before. Shouting, kicking, he had three counts before he was supposed to be fully dressed with weapon in hand. Now it felt like it was three counts just to open his eyes. “Enough,” he said aloud to himself in the dark tent. The wind battered the tent and he heard the thumping sound of heavy raindrops. He scowled. It would be another day of delays. Delays were lost advantage. Delays favored the enemy. w w w.bethanyhouse.com 2 Orders: 1- 800 - 877-2665 May Caleb and Joshua Roar to Life in this High-Impact Old Testament Saga ••Graham stands out among CBA writers for his highoctane, faith-fueled writing ••Ideal for biblical fiction readers and anyone intrigued by the feature films Noah and Exodus ••His fans include Mark Batterson, Karen Kingsbury, and Spiderman producer Grant Curtis T wo men were brave enough to tell the truth about what awaited the Hebrews in Canaan. This is their story. From the slave pits of Egypt to the efforts of an eighty-five-year-old Caleb as he drives out the last of the giants, Shadow of the Mountain is a vivid portrait of two of God’s chosen champions, and a meditation on masculine mentorship and the challenges and blessings of growing older. For the sake of his new God and his loyalty to his friend Joshua, Caleb will not spend his twilight years resting, but taking the battle to the enemies of God’s people until his dying breath. From his early days as a mercenary for Pharaoh in Egypt watching the Hebrews suffer under the yoke of slavery, all the way through a desperate fight with giants in the dark forests of the hill country, this is a story filled with epic battles, gritty intensity, and supernatural events that made Graham’s Lion of War series a hit.

She desperately wants to resume some semblance of normal life, but she also knows she has some unfinished business to attend to. She has enough evidence to put her captors behind bars for a very long time. When Shannon contacts private investigator and former cop Matthew Dane to help her navigate her reentry into society, she quickly discovers that gaining her freedom doesn’t mean her troubles are over. For one thing, her brother is the leading candidate in the race for Illinois governor, and news of her escape will create a media frenzy. For another, the ransom her family reportedly paid years earlier appears to have been a scam; no one knows what happened to the money. And then there’s the fact that Shannon’s escape involved faking her own death. If the Jacoby family learns she is still alive, they’ll stop at nothing to silence her. If justice is to be done, and if Shannon’s life is ever to get on track again, Matthew will need to discover exactly what happened to her—even if it means stirring up a hornet’s nest of secrets.

What was she going to do, throw him over her shoulder and run? He didn’t think that was going to work. He was about six inches taller and outweighed her by a hundred pounds. But Mama Grizz was coming, so someone had to do something. They couldn’t stay here, and Tucker wasn’t sure he was up to moving on his own. “Hang on!” She shoved him backward, clinging so tight it was like he’d gotten a second pack hooked on. She screamed. They flew. There was no more rolling. No more aspens. No more rocks. They soared. Tucker saw the walls of the cliff rushing past and knew where they were. Worse yet, he knew where they were going to land. “Are you crazy?” He’d just been killed by a woman as wild as he was. Well, he wasn’t killed yet. But it was only a few minutes ahead of them. They hit the water so hard it was like slamming into granite. The water took over trying to kill him as it swept him forward, pulled him under, and slammed him into a wall all at the same time, then threw him over another cliff. Those little black curls that had him so curious— and the woman they were attached to—had just thrown him into the worst stretch of water maybe in the whole Rocky Mountains. What did Tucker know? Maybe in the whole world. All he could do now was hang on to the woman and try to keep them both alive, which he very much doubted he could do. He grabbed the whip he kept on his belt and lashed them together. It seemed like the gentlemanly thing. He slammed up against a rock and was dragged under and took her with him. His attempt to save her might get her killed. Maybe he oughta let her loose. Before he could give that plan much thought, they went flying again. She screamed in his ear fit to leave him deaf for the rest of his life. Of course, his life probably wasn’t gonna be all that long so what did it matter if he was deaf? Blast it, all he’d wanted was to go see a few golden eagles. Was that too much to ask? w w w.bethanyhouse.com 10 Orders: 1- 800 - 877-2665 June Saddle Up for Adventure, Romance, and Lots of Laughs in Connealy’s Latest ••Bestselling author Mary Connealy delivers a laugh-out-loud, edge-ofyour-seat romp ••Winner of a Carol Award and a finalist for the Christy and RITA awards, Connealy is a leader in the category of humorous historical romance ••Shannon and Tucker have a shot at a love that lasts forever . . . if they can stay alive long enough to realize it!

Mr. O’Leary lit his pipe, took a long draw on the stem, and blew out a fragrant swirl of smoke. “Gilbert, you’re twenty-one now. I know I have no right to ask, but I need a favor from you.” Gil’s stomach tightened. From the grim look on Mr. O’Leary’s face, it couldn’t be anything good. “What kind of favor?” “You’ve met Arthur Hastings, the banker, haven’t you? I want you to begin courting his daughter, Aurora. Your alliance could tip the balance in our favor when we apply for a business loan. She’s about your age and not a hardship to look at.” Gil curled his fingers around the arms of the leather chair. He had no interest in courting another woman—unless it was Brianna. But of course that was out of the question. Gil loosened his tie in an attempt to get more air. “With all due respect, sir, I’ve just broken off one relationship. I’m hardly ready to begin courting someone new.” “I understand your reluctance to jump into a new alliance. At least meet the girl and see what you think.” “Mr. O—I mean, James—you know I’d do anything I can to help, but—” “I know you would, son.

Elizabeth was beginning to think the same, but time had nearly run out. Within days, she must sail for Charleston, where she was expected to secure a prominent match. That meant leaving her beloved Key West and the man who had captured her affections. Today might be her only opportunity to change the course her parents had set out for her. She and Charlie had nearly reached the harbor, where Rourke O’Malley’s wrecking sloop was moored. Just thinking of him bolstered her courage. Though the rain now pelted down, ruining the fine blue muslin gown she’d donned just for him, maybe he’d see her as courageous. “Can we go home?” Charlie asked. She yanked her brother toward the wharves. “We need to secure our skiff.” The twelve-foot boat belonged to Charlie, but he went sailing only when she bribed him. She adored the freedom of the turquoise seas and seized every chance to improve her seafaring skills. That secret love cost her many an evening helping Charlie complete his studies. When she told her maid this morning why they must leave the house in such weather, Anabelle had shaken her head and proclaimed that Mother would tan both their hides when she found out. “We will be home before Mother returns,” Elizabeth had assured her. She could wriggle anything past the girl who giggled with her every night after the lamps were blown out. “She’ll never know we were gone.” The striking, caramel-colored maid grinned. “You’re a fool for him.” Elizabeth had pretended she didn’t know who Anabelle meant, which was silly, considering their every conversation centered on him. Rourke O’Malley wasn’t the richest wrecker in Key West, but he was by far the handsomest and most daring. His bronzed skin and eyes the color of the emerald depths made her stomach flutter. His smile left her speechless. For the first time in her life, she’d seen an advantage to being born female. w w w.revellbooks.com 28 Orders: 1- 800 - 877-2665 June A Heroine Trying to Make Amends Uncovers Secrets Long Buried ••Can a tomboy become the perfect Southern belle in order to gain her father’s approval? ••Compelling writing brings alive beautiful 1850s Key West, Florida ••Johnson has been an award-winning and popular author with Steeple Hill and Love Inspired W hen her mother dies, Elizabeth Benjamin heads home to Key West, determined to transform herself into the perfect Southern belle her parents always wished her to be.

You’re apt to scare her beating on the door that way.” The other man’s voice was calm with a sound of authority. Carlyn shut her eyes a moment. It wasn’t her house. She hadn’t been able to pay Curt Whitlow his due on it. He’d let her ride for almost a year because of Ambrose fighting for the Union, but when Ambrose didn’t come home after the war ended, his patience ran out. Now he was answering the man outside. “The Widow Kearney’s not that easy to scare.” That word made her shake inside. Widow. It was harder to believe it wasn’t true. She hadn’t heard from Ambrose since Vicksburg in June 1863. Over two years ago. But she had no proof he was dead. The Army said missing. Missing wasn’t dead. Ambrose might yet find his way home. It was a hope as fragile as the spun gossamer of a spider web. Even so, she’d made Ambrose a promise till death do them part and until she was sure death had parted them, she’d keep that promise.

Who knew there were so many ruts and grooves on her two-mile route from town . . . or that she’d hit every one? And how could she only have noticed them today, after making this trip thousands of times? Then again, she’ never been nursing a black and blue hip or a raw palm— all thanks to an oblivious pedestrian who didn’t have enough sense to stay out of traffic. She huffed out a breath and tried to shift her anatomy into a more comfortable position. Unfortunately, there wasn’t one. At least she’d almost reached her destination. Keeping one eye on the bumps in the gravel entry road, she surveyed the dikeenclosed cranberry beds on either side, the plants lush with new growth, their pale pink flowers creating a sea of color. Gorgeous. Her favorite season on the farm. Or it would be until fall, when dark red cranberries bobbed to the surface of the flooded beds, creating a floating scarlet island against the brilliant blue sky. Truth be told, every season here had a beauty all its own. For you, anyway. As the stomach-knotting caveat echoed in her mind, she squeezed the handlebars. This wasn’t the time to dwell on the past. Not when she was about to share some news with Uncle Bud that had serious ramifications for their future. w w w.revellbooks.com 38 Orders: 1- 800 - 877-2665 August “Her expert storytelling taps at matters of the heart in lyrical, beautiful language.”—RT Book Reviews •• Bestselling author excels at both tender, heartwarming romance and high-stakes, gripping romantic suspense •• Praised as “one great story teller” by #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber •• A “multi-thread plot is woven beautifully together to create a tapestry that will enchant romantics of all ages.” —Publishers Weekly on One Perfect Spring T racy Campbell never wanted to leave Hope Harbor, Oregon, or the idyllic three-generation cranberry farm where she grew up.

A wonderful read.” —Keith Hazard, deputy director, Central Intelligence Agency “I was not prepared for this. It’s somewhere between spectacular and astonishingly compelling. The concept itself is so daring that one can’t quite anticipate in any cautionary way what is coming. Bunn’s writing has never been stronger. The power of his style—especially in the presentation of situations, contexts, and geography—is enough, more or less in and of itself, to make the book a gripping and intense experience.
