Sweet Caroline

By Rachel Hauck

When a Southern waitress inherits the Lowcountry cafe where she works,
she suddenly has to balance more than just her next food order.

Caroline Sweeney has always done the right thing--the responsible,
dependable thing--unlike her mother who abandoned her family. But when
her best friend challenges her to accept an exciting job adventure in
Barcelona, Spain, Caroline says "yes" to destiny.

Then, without warning, ownership of the run-down cafe where she's been
waitressing falls right into Caroline's lap. While she's trying to
determine the cafe's future, handsome Deputy Sherriff J.D. Rand captures
Caroline's heart.

But when her first love, Mitch O'Neal, comes back to town, fresh from
the heat of his newly-found fame as a country music singer in Nashville,
Caroline must make some hard choices about love and the pursuit of the
sweet life.

"Hauck's adorable novel contains the multi-layered characters
readers have come to expect from her books. The enjoyable story and
unpredictable ending entertains and offers much to think about." -
4.5 Stars, Melissa Parcel, Romantic Times Book Club

Every Secret Thing

by Ann Tatlock

Every Secret Thing is the story of a woman who returns home after many
years away. Beth Gunnar hasn't lived in Delaware since high school
graduation, but when she's offered a teaching job at Seaton
Preparatory School--her alma mater--she accepts. Once there, she's
faced with an unresolved loss that she and her friends experienced
during their senior year. She realizes that the suicide of a favorite
teacher has haunted her all her life, and she wants to find out the
truth about what happened that night. There's a little bit of
mystery and a little bit of romance, and ultimately it's a story of
faith and reconciliation.

"Intelligent, introspective, and beautifully, hauntingly
written…."

- Tom Morrisey, author of In High Place
