HE HAD IT ALLSean Conklin had everything a young Christian man could want. A loving wife, a thriving ministry, and a son on the way. But when his wife dies in childbirth and he's faced with raising the baby on his own, his faith falters. He turns his back on God and returns home to Garfield to raise his son in peace. A year has passed since his wife's death when he meets Monica. It's hard to ignore the flash of attraction, but another woman in his life is the last thing he needs.HER DREAM IS ON THE HORIZONMonica Jenson loves what she does, serving veterans and their family members at the veteran's center in Garfield, but she's driven by the voice of her father and a desire to do more. When she's offered a chance at her dream job, she's determined not to let anything stand in her way. That is until the innocent smile of a motherless child-and the sad eyes of the handsome father-have her questioning the future she planned.TWO FUTURES HANG IN THE BALANCESean and Monica know what they want, and it has nothing to do with the attraction sparking between them. Or does it? Small-town Oklahoma and the friendships they produce are embedded in Sharon Srock's heart. After spending her first fifteen years on the move, living in fourteen homes and attending thirteen schools, she landed in a tiny central Oklahoma community and made it her own. As someone who's been blessed to be a part of the same hometown church for more than five decades, Sharon writes stories of hope built from her own unique perspective-stories that demonstrate a sisterhood formed not by blood but by heart, where ordinary women are able to do extraordinary things thanks to the friends who surround them and the faith that pulls them through. Sharon still lives in the middle of nowhere, Oklahoma, with her husband and three very large dogs. When she isn't writing, she loves to read, cook, and travel. One of these days, she's going to figure out how to do all three at the same time
