Hello dear reader, thank you for picking up my book and checking it out. You may ask, “Why do I want to purchase this particular book?” As I use to say to my children “because I asked you to.” On a more serious thought, it isn’t about who I am, but who He, Jesus, is. I believe we are all in this world to help one another in one way or another. If by some small way we make a connection, then my mission is accomplished. It is my personal journey, one of finding love, peace and forgiveness through my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I also believe it is an easy read. It isn’t some deep theological book, or a suspense novel, but a journey. If you choose to buy the book, thank you. My prayer then is that you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it. In Christian love, Veronica M. Donnelly

An extraordinary account of searching for the wildness left in our world - spanning continents and geological eras, skies and oceans, animals and birds, and even the planets and stars. With dizzying acuity and insight Roberts paints a portrait of a life and its landscapes, creating precious connections with wild creatures and places, from swans in the Cambrian Mountains to wolves in the Pacific Northwest. By walking at dawn and dusk, in the two lights of awakening and deepening, through the stripped, windswept hills of Wales, and the jungles and savannahs of Africa, he tries to navigate from a soul-stripping sense of loss towards hope in the future. In the presence of wild creatures he finds a way back to life.

In the follow-up to Abbi Glines’s #1 New York Times bestseller Until Friday Night—which bestselling author Kami Garcia called “tender, honest, and achingly real”—three teens from a small southern town are caught in a dramatic love triangle. Willa can’t erase the bad decisions of her past that led her down the path she’s on now. But she can fight for forgiveness from her family. And she can protect herself by refusing to let anyone else get close to her. High school quarterback and town golden boy Brady used to be the best of friends with Willa—she even had a crush on him when they were kids. But that’s all changed now: her life choices have made her a different person from the girl he used to know. Gunner used to be friends with Willa and Brady, too. He too is larger than life and a high school football star—not to mention that his family basically owns the town of Lawton. He loves his life, and doesn’t care about anyone except himself. But Willa is the exception—and he understands the girl she’s become in a way no one else can. As secrets come to light and hearts are broken, these former childhood friends must face the truth about growing up and falling in love…even if it means losing each other forever.
