The SECOND CHANCES novels have totally new looks! What do you think of the covers? I think they look like exciting movie posters. Check them out!

RUNNING HOME

Ivy’s marriage has been filled with infidelity, lies, and distrust. Her husband disappears in a cloud of suspicion and leaves her and the children to pick up the pieces of their lives and move on without him. Back in her hometown she dreams that everything will be better. She can start over and hopefully not make the same mistakes she made in the past.

But her philandering husband left her with more than bills to pay and children to raise. He left her holding the proverbial bag. The FBI thinks she knows something and the bad guys think she has something. Either way she’s in a world of trouble.

Ivy’s attempt to assemble the broken pieces of her life is proving harder than she anticipated. Will her husband’s secrets push her over the edge or into the arms of grace?

Brenna finds her past catching up in ALIAS RAVEN BLACK. She’s been living just left of the right side of the law since she ran  away as a teenager, playing fast and loose with the truth, and her

scruples. Pregnant at sixteen, she gave up her baby and has secretly lived with that pain for eight long years. Not only is her conscience tailing her, but the law is as well.

Now, to wipe her slate clean, she’s been asked to help collect evidence against a dangerous mob boss by working undercover as nanny to his two spoiled children. Will the secrets she discovers bring absolution from the past she’s tried so hard to leave behind or will these motherless children sink their hooks into her heart so deep it breaks in two?

TRIAL BY FIRE picks up the story eighteen months after Raven’s adventure as a nanny in the Giordano family.

Raven, or Brenna Blackman, as she is now known, is living in Minneapolis running an open-door art studio for homeless teens. She now has custody of her daughter Maria and half-brother Rico, and while that may be enough emotional turmoil for a young woman, there can always be more. Giordano lawyers are breathing down her neck trying to pull Rico back into the bosom of the Italian mobster family and in the midst of a fund raiser art show, a stranger shows up with ties to Brenna’s childhood past.

Ivy is dealing with a new marriage, new home, and the trial of Ace Anderson, the man who kidnapped her children back in Running Home. Set to testify against the man, she begins receiving not-so-subtle threats against her family.

With all that is going on with these two, it’s good they have their knights in shining armor by their sides. Samson is still an agent with the FBI and Thomas is working closely with Brenna to continue his P.I. business of finding and rescuing teenage runaways.

The thing is, Ivy and Brenna don’t always let their men handle the hard things for them. Sometimes, knowing a girlfriend has your back is the only way to deal with the kind of trouble that seems to follow these two around.That, and a mutual trust in the God who rescued them in the past. New faith is definitely going to get tested in Trial by Fire.

~Trial By Fire will be available this spring! Keep checking back for news of an official release date!~
