Sinossi

Paula stared out of the window; her gaze fixed on nothing in particular. The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, orange glow over the quiet neighbourhood. Five years had passed since the day her world had shattered into a million pieces, and yet the ache in her heart was as raw as ever. 
James had been just a little boy of eight, his laughter filling the air like a melody. He was her golden-haired boy, full of life and boundless energy.

Dreaming of His Pen Pal's Kiss

Jessie Gussman

Journee Barclay isn't interested in the big, hulky football player the town of Mistletoe wants her to date. She's been writing to a sweet, shy computer geek and she's hoping he'll eventually ask to meet her. But putting the town off is getting to be more difficult every day. 
Football star Dante Tolzien came to the town of Mistletoe, Arkansas to rest and recover from his recent car accident on the advice of his doctor. While in the hospital, he enjoyed writing to a secret pen pal. While a part of him would love to meet his unknown friend, another part of him is more interested in the real live nurse in front of him. 
Unfortunately, she seems to be stuck on a man no one has ever met. 
When Journee and Dante are entered in Mistletoe's own Not-Such-An-Ironman contest together, sparks fly. But can they let go of their pen pals in order to pursue a relationship with each other?

Saints and Sinners

Peter Brandvold

Town Marshal "Bloody" Joe Mannion is back in this third high-action volume in Peter Brandvold's explosive western series! 
 
 
 
When Jeremiah Claggett, constable of the nearby ghost town of Fury, is murdered by Frank Lord, the kill-crazy leader of a dozen wild outlaws, Bloody Joe has to come to grips with the fact that he's inadvertently to blame. Mannion had turned Frank's brother, Billy, over to Claggett for safekeeping, setting off the chain of events that end his friend's life. Mannion is the kill-crazy one now. Not realizing he's being shadowed by Clagget's beautiful, half-wild granddaughter, Justy, and an inscrutable saddle tramp, Mannion sets out on his vengeance quest. 
 
 
 
In typical Bloody Joe style, he storms Lord's gang single-handedly, which nearly proves to be his undoing—until he's set upon by a mystery 'Man of the Lord' and given . . . something. Whether that something is good or bad Mannion has difficulty discerning. 
 
 
 
Saints and Sinners is a crazy, dark, storm-ridden ride through the hell of the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. Whoever manages to ride out alive—saint or sinner, or maybe a combination—will be changed forever, baptized in gun smoke and blood.
