Will Caleb and Delanie give love a second chance? Buy today to find out! -- REVIEWS: “A breath of fresh air.” - Jessica Renwick, author of the Starlight Inn series “Endearing characters, a beautifully executed plot, and a homey fall setting.” - Brenna Bailey, author of the Juniper Creek series “What a cute story! Realistic, charming characters, a lot of sweet, heartfelt moments, and a HEA. Great choice!” - Jacqueline C., advance reader “Has a real Hallmark-y type vibe to it, and I love those types of stories. I’m so excited for the next book of this series!” - Shannon S., advance reader “These two deserve a second chance. Love this couple. First book by this author and I will read her again.” - Patty Duplechin, Advance Reader EXCERPT: “Look. First star of the night…” Caleb pointed out the living room picture window and helped Delanie to her feet, pulling her to come stand next to him. “Make a wish.” Delanie gave him a long, uncertain look, then glanced at the pinpoint of white light before closing her eyes for several long seconds. He stared at her, drinking in her presence, knowing she couldn’t feel uncomfortable about his gaze if she couldn’t see it. Her eyes fluttered open, and she blushed. “Were you looking at me the whole time?” His face warmed. “Maybe,” he mumbled. “Didn’t you make a wish?” He shook his head. “I don’t need to. My wish is standing right here.” He pulled her into him and enveloped her in his arms. She stiffened, then relaxed and wrapped her arms around his waist, leaning into his chest. “I have a confession to make,” he said. “I never got over you. Not for a single second.” After a pause, she said, “A wish isn’t enough to overcome all the obstacles between us.” “No. But it’s enough to make me believe we could. This time, I have no intention of letting you go anywhere without me. Whatever happens, I want to give us a fair shot.” -- Keywords: small town romance, Hallmark movies, sweet romance, clean and wholesome romance, second chance romance, theatre romance, single dad romance, Canadian literature, books set in Alberta, happily for now, HFN, romance series

Shine
Author: Star Jones Reynolds
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061844497
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Star Jones Reynolds had done it all. College on scholarship, law school on loans, and life by faith. She had achieved a prestigious career as a lawyer and prosecutor, provided much-needed calm and insight while reporting the Rodney King and O. J. Simpson trials on television, and landed a spot cohosting one of America's most popular daytime television shows, The View. Then why was she feeling so down? It all began when Star took a close look at herself and her life and realized she wasn't happy with what she saw: obesity precluded her from crossing her legs, she needed an asthma inhaler, she couldn't fasten her own necklace, and, worst of all, she got too tired to shop -- a disaster because Star Jones Reynolds is a seriously committed shopper. Then she realized something else: with all her extraordinary accomplishments, none of it mattered without true love. Thinking long and hard, she finally understood that she hadn't yet met the man of her dreams because she wasn't ready for him. Star decided to make it happen. She began a personal journey to reconstitute her physical look, emotional state, and already strong spirituality. Even if she didn't find love, it would be a win-win situation because she'd emerge from the experience a healthier, happier woman -- one who could truly shine. Unless you live on another planet, you know Star succeeded in her quest and did find true love -- and it wasn't that hard at all. In Shine, she shares it all in her wise, revealing, irreverent, laugh-out-loud style. Shine is divided into three main sections, each exploring core issues of interest to women. Part One guides women toward being their most attractive physical selves using Star's personal secrets on losing weight and finding hair, fashion, and makeup chic (inexpensively). Part Two asks tough questions about emotional preparedness for a relationship and shows you how to think like lawyers, and how to get your financial and emotional houses in order. Part Three delves into a woman's spiritual life -- discover how to talk to God no matter what your religion. Spiking the book are Star's "absolutes" -- truisms that have always worked for her and continue to give her guidance -- quizzes and self-assessment exercises that will help you focus on your particular strengths and weaknesses. Everyone knows Star Jones Reynolds is a success story, a happy, rough-edges-to-emotional-and-financial-riches tale. Until you read this book, you won't know how she got there -- and how you can echo her triumphs and shine.
