About the book: His Fiancée Was the One Woman He’d Loved.
Her Children Are All He Has Left.Reserved contractor Wade Sullivan never expected to fall in love with Starr Parnell or to love her three small kids as if they were his own. But that’s exactly what happened. As their wedding draws near, however, tragedy strikes–and Wade must put aside his own grief in order to help Starr’s children cope. As Wade focuses his efforts on caring for the children, he discovers that their tender, young lives give tremendous meaning to his own broken one. Then Starr’s abusive ex-husband shows up to claim the offspring who barely remember him–and Wade prepares for the fight of his life. Will Anyone Believe His Claim to Love the Children More than Their Father Loves Them? A powerful novel of loss and discovery, courage and grace, A Nest of Sparrows masterfully illustrates one man’s struggle to know when to fight, when to let go, and when to simply wait.

A Life Such as Heaven Intended is a sweet love story set in Georgia during the Civil War. The story is told from the viewpoint of our heroine, on the home front, and, every other chapter, from the viewpoint of our hero on the warfront . The young lady and young man are on opposite sides of the war, but find common ground in their faith to save each other's lives during the last harrowing year of the conflict.
 Here's the description from the book:
The Civil War rages around her, yet Brigid McGinnis has her life planned out. That was, until she stumbles across an unconscious Confederate soldier on her father’s property. A blow to the head stole Dominic Warner’s memory. The beautiful Fraulein who nurses him back to health steals something even more important - his heart. 
For political and societal reasons, Brigid and Dominic must go their separate ways. They each get caught up in the war and put their lives on the line to remain true to the values and faith they share. Follow Brigid and Dominic from the battlefields surrounding Atlanta, along slave escape routes, to Little Rock, and eventually to the plains of Eastern Texas, as they learn to trust, forgive, love, and surrender to a plan greater than their own.

For every one of us that has decided to step into life, found that "reality" that we dream of, and set about overcoming every challenge that is on the path toward our goal- here is a universal story about a young man who, at the age of 12 runs away from home to discover that which few of us do: his reason for life itself! Before you begin your journey, ride along with the "surfing rabbi", and meet the greatest watermen, surfers, and characters that you will ever imagine. Highly recommended for anyone on a spiritual odyssey to build a consciousness that will sustain and strengthen the human condition.  Here's the description from the book:Growing up under the spell of surfdoms coveted mecca, Malibu Beach, Norm Shifren risks missing his own bar mitzvah to take his first shaky ride at the fabled surf spot. Benignly apathetic about his Jewishness, Shifren pursues his dream of becoming a big-wave surfer, lifeguard, and triathlete. Shifren’s circuitous journey evolves into a spiritual quest that takes him from the pristine waves of Hawaii and Mexico, to intermarriage in Germany, a soldier’s duty in Israel, and finally, to a small shtetl in Israel, where he learns the mysteries of the Jewish ancients. His true-life saga is one of new found Jewish consciousness and eye opening self-revelation. Shifren’s life comes full circle as he finds G-d not in the synagogue, but in the majesty of Jewish mysticism and the vast power of the ocean.
