  AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 
    
  Sometimes love is just out of reach … 
    
  Rancher and military veteran J.P. McCall loves simple pleasures. The satisfaction of working his family’s land. The freedom to come and go as he pleases. But ever since his two closest friends have married and started families of their own, J.P. realizes what he’s been missing. He's known plenty of women, but now he craves finding The One. And then Sara Worth comes crashing back into his life. She’s his buddy’s sister, the woman who was always out of reach. 
    
  Single mom Sara Worth has her hands full. After a disastrous early marriage, she is now writing bestselling books by day and caring for her two teenagers by night. That doesn’t leave a lot of me time. But when an innocent request for J.P.’s help leads to an unforgettable kiss, she’s intrigued—and unsure. Giving love a second chance feels impossible. But when the man from Sara’s past resurfaces, threatening everything she holds dear, J.P. will do whatever it takes to protect the woman who’s stealing his heart.

Jordan and the Dhlomo brothers while boldly exploring urgent contemporary issues. An ode to the complex strengths of South African women, this powerful novel is also a call to respect the earth that nurtures human life and to live in self-sufficiency and harmony with the environment and each other.Magona's storytelling invokes the poetry of S.E.K. Mqhayi as it sets in motion the proverb "It takes a village to raise a child." When the Village Sleeps is a compelling tale that will resonate with readers seeking a deeper understanding of South African culture, family dynamics, and the resilience of the human spirit.

  "I exhort therefore, that intercessions be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty." - 1 Timothy 2This verse is the center of this fascinating, rip-roaring, family friendly, deeply Christian tale. A terrifying spin on Dickens' A Christmas Carol commissioned for the 1904 Special Christmas Issue of The Strand, it tells of Josiah McNason, “A case of a man gone wrong! A case of a human creature who has a stone in the place where his heart ought to be!—a hard, heavy stone, without a pulse of love or kindness in it! Sir Slasher believes it’s cancer. But if it is, they’ll never find it, McNason! No!—your cancer’s on the mind!”The goblin who announces this takes him on a terrifying voyage, in which he sees his fate as a goblin, watches a goblin preacher exhorting his congregation of fallen souls, travels to the bedside of a dying man he has refused to save, watches an atheist preacher spinning a newfangled 'faith' that ignores Christ's presence in the heart of Westminster Abbey, and faces the horrors of a fate that cares as little for him as he does for his fellow man.Paranormal and gothic, Christian and anti-church, fun and thoughtful, filled with hideous darkness and angelic light, this book is perfect for anyone looking for victorian-era penny dreadful drama and adventure with a solidly Christian spin.Corelli outsold AC Doyle, H. G. Wells, and Kipling combined. Critics hated her, calling her "the favourite of the common multitude", and she hated them in return. A favourite of Churchill, Queen Victoria and Gladstone, her friends included Mark Twain, Ouida, the Empress Frederick of Germany, and Tennyson. She was described as "a woman of deplorable talent who imagined that she was a genius, and was accepted as a genius by a public to whose commonplace sentimentalities and prejudices she gave a glamorous setting.
