Product Description
“A keeper! A winner! A deliciously sexy romance!" —Gloria Miller, The Literary Times Karin Williams' devastatingly handsome project officer has a boulder-sized chip on his shoulder. Rowan Marsden expected a male engineer and he's not giving Karin an inch. Working conditions are...tense. Even...worse, she must share on-site accommodations with the sexy Brit who she fears will break her heart. What's a girl to do? If Rowan had his way, he'd never work with a woman. Yet as Karin demonstrates her expertise on the job, he cannot deny his growing respect for her--or his desire. He wants the passion she offers, but not the commit-ment. Until a horrendous accident at the project site threatens Karin's life, and proves that even a wounded man is destined to love....

The Showboat Affair The Showboat Affair
by Gwyneth Greer
So far a nice read!

Review to be posted in July
with Blogoversary Post.
Product Description
After thirty years of marriage, Jean Kingston is freshly divorced and rediscovering the joys of being an independent woman as well a talent for interior design. Having a new man in her life is not part of the plan. Nick Cameron, prominent attorney and long-time widower, would like to change Jean's mind and include him in her plans. Their adult children don't approve of either plan, and are determined to keep Jean and Nick apart. Does their opposition include staging personal attacks against them? Could they really be desperate enough to stalk the couple on a weekend getaway? Or is there a deeper evil at work?

Change Anything: The New Science of Personal Success

This is really an excellent approach to change.  Reading For Hachette Review.
I'm stalled since I am using a different car as mine needs work. Guess I may have to buy a small CD player.

The Vision and Beyond, prophecies fulfilled and still to comeby David Wilkerson
We will be teaching this to 
the young adult class 
starting in two weeks.
I am reading a chapter a week to prepare.
Editorial Review:
In this compelling release, David Wilkerson brings the reader up to date and into the future. He firmly believes that we are now living in the time the Bible refers to as "the beginnings of sorrows" and that the world is racing toward Armageddon.

I am also listening to The Listener's Bible NIV 
read by Max McLean. I am at 2 Kings 11, Proverbs 24 and Acts 24.

Line Edits:
