Book Description
For no gentleman is this more true than Charles Morwellan, the eighth Earl of Meredith. Although he's seen the many successful unions of his Cynster connections, he has also watched his father's obsessions nearly destroy their family and fortune, a mistake Charles will not repeat. But as Lord Meredith he must marry, so he offers for Sarah, the daughter of his neighbors Lord and Lady Conningham. She's intelligent enough to run his social life, beautiful enough to grace his arm, and old enough to know the value of his offer. For most young ladies of the ton, the right marriage is the culmination of years of training, perfect deportment, and intricate plans that would impress a general. But as a lady of independent means with a life of her own, Sarah is unwilling to wed unless it is for unbounded love. But Charles always gets what he wants. He convinces Sarah to give him two weeks to win her; if he succeeds, they will marry immediately. And so begins an intense courtship. By day, Charles and Sarah are models of decorum indulging in innocuous walks, polite conversation, sedate waltzes. Each night they steal away to the lush, moonlit gardens, where sensual embraces turn to searing kisses, and much, much more. Both are swept away on a tide of passion and feeling neither can resist. And yet, after the wedding, despite nights of insatiable passion, Charles remains aloof, as if the near-sinful sweetness of their nights exists only in a dream. Sarah battles to prove that true love is a force that can't be contained, a gift worth fighting for, but it's only when she's engulfed in a web of increasingly dangerous incidents that Charles discovers how much he's willing to surrender to protect . . . the taste of innocence.

Book Description
The prophetic church is on the rise to bring a hope reformation to the world! The Hope Diamond is the largest blue diamond on Earth and it is the heavenly symbol of this hope reformation. The Hope Diamond has a voice. It carries a message from God that can be heard by those who understand the scriptural meaning of jewels and color. In this book the Hope Diamond’s true identity and heavenly message are revealed. Five physical senses help people interpret the material world: sight, smell, touch, taste, and sound. Each of these senses has a greater spiritual match! Once awakened these senses defy the limits of what could formerly be perceived and engage us with reality on a whole new level. The spiritual dimension earnestly awaits each individual awakening. Tasting Blue is a collection of prophetic writing that cultures and nurtures the spiritual senses. It beckons each reader beyond the mental confines of worldly perspective and helps us to interpret reality through a different kind of sight. Ephesians 1:17 says that Jesus opens our eyes! The surprise lies, in the set of eyes, that Jesus comes to open. Laura Francis writes in poems and parables-a form of prophetic language seen often within the Scriptures. She writes to accelerate our understanding of spiritual realities. Using scriptural references, her work helps reveal the treasure found within the pages of the Holy Bible: precious words given by God to edify, encourage and comfort humanity.

In this contemporary Western romance by a New York Times bestseller, a cowboy’s inheritance comes with life-altering surprises. Faron Whitelaw had some nerve calling Belinda Prescott a princess. A nearly bankrupt ranch was hardly a castle, and Faron, an ill-tempered cowboy who’d inherited half her kingdom, was certainly no prince. The man was lucky she didn’t make him sleep in the barn! Faron had been furious when Belinda had to inform him about the truth of his parentage. Suddenly, he wasn’t one of the Whitelaws of Texas, and he was taking his anger out on Belinda. He wanted to believe she was nothing more than a gold digger, but all she seemed to want was him . . . and that was the one thing he couldn’t give her.
