This e-book contains three novels and one novella, equivalent to 1100+ paperback pages.Love of a LifetimePreviously published as Love, Lies, and Homemade Pie.Cara Smith can’t wait to put the first half of 1980 behind her and build a new life in the little town of Abundance, Missouri. If she can just avoid questions from that cute guy at the newspaper, no one ever needs to find out about her past. Will Hamlin, editor of the local paper, has some serious questions about the mayor’s new secretary. She’s clearly hiding something—something that could be the big story the newspaper desperately needs to stay afloat. But after Will’s initial queries find nothing, he grows less interested in Cara’s past and more interested in winning her heart with slices of pie and stolen kisses. When a crime is uncovered at city hall just as Will unearths Cara’s secret, the repercussions shatter their romance. Can Cara ever escape her past? Can Will finally find a way to save the paper? And can they learn to place their trust in God and open their hearts to the love of a lifetime?Love at Sunset LakeWhen struggling caterer Tess Palmer inherits her great-aunt’s home at Sunset Lake, Missouri, she thinks she's found the way to save her business. Selling the property can provide the capital she needs to pay her debts and move to a larger commercial kitchen. Wildlife painter Jack Hamlin, who lives across Sunset Lake, wants the area kept exactly as it is—a place where he can ease his troubled heart. Although he’s drawn to Tess’s honesty and beauty, he’s appalled that she would welcome a deal with a developer, and he vows to stop her. As Tess discovers why Jack is so passionate about protecting the lake, she finds him more and more attractive, and she takes a step past her own emotional pain. But there seems to be no solution to the impasse over the property. As a sale nears, can Jack and Tess trust God—and each other—and finally find a love that will last? Love and HarmonyFor Becky Hamlin, every performance is important, a time for her choir to shine.

It’s a chance to make up for her lapse in judgment last summer, not to mention a shot at her dream job. Seth Williams, former naval officer and the new interim high school principal, has barely unpacked when he realizes that the gorgeous local choir director is the same girl he fell for at church camp years ago. With her in town, he’s more determined than ever to convince the school board to make his position permanent. As the logistics of her concert cause problems with his job, can their renewed love survive?Love and RosesYoung widow Abby Kincaid treasures the past, both the antiques she sells and her memories of her late husband.

Mistakes that Nate had hoped to forget continue to haunt him. Abby faces her failure to forgive. And how can Nate compete with the memory of a war hero? When the park battle brings on a crisis, can they each believe in a God of second chances and a future where their love can grow? less
