By Your Side

"When Autumn Collins finds herself accidentally locked in the library for an entire weekend, she doesn't think things could get any worse. But that's before she realizes that Dax Miller is locked in with her. Autumn doesn't know much about Dax except that he's trouble. Between the rumors about the fight he was in (and that brief stint in juvie that followed it) and his reputation as a loner, he's not exactly the ideal person to be stuck with. Still, she just keeps reminding herself that it is only a matter of time before Jeff, her almost-boyfriend, realizes he left her in the library and comes to rescue her. Only he doesn't come. No one does. Instead it becomes clear that Autumn is going to have to spend the next couple of days living off vending-machine food and making conversation with a boy who clearly wants nothing to do with her. Except there is more to Dax than meets the eye. As he and Autumn at first grudgingly, and then not so grudgingly, open up to each other, Autumn is struck by their surprising connection. But can their feelings for each other survive once the weekend is over and Autumn's old life, and old love interest, threaten to pull her from Dax's side?"--Page 4 of cover.

For many of us, Prayer tends to be a formal process. But if we want Jesus to be at our side to help us through the ups and downs of daily life, it helps to find other ways to talk to him, even about seemingly ordinary things. This engaging collection of prayers for individuals or groups is deeply rooted in real life and covers a broad range of our human experience. The prayers are often funny, at times poignant, but always inspiring. As the authors say "Sometimes God is going to speak to you through the difficult meeting at work, the woman at the bus stop, or the pregnancy test. It's not all walking on water!" Each prayer is accompanied by Scripture quotes, thought-provoking insights from Christian authors, and questions to prompt deeper reflection. Book jacket.

Ellie Chambers always wanted to be a writer. Now, she was a successful author, but it had come at a price. Two prices, actually. The first was the fallout from a hastily-signed contract with Margo Rollings, the Publisher Who Wouldn't Die. And the second was Sam Price, her former writing partner and almost-fiance. Sam Price had dreamed of being the next Hemingway, not the hack ghostwriter behind the popular "Lottie Long" cozy mystery series. But days spent with his dad as a carpenter in quaint Golden Grove, Iowa gave him little time for much else. An unforeseen catastrophe, in the form of Margo Rollings, leaves Sam with the ultimate lose-lose proposition: write another book with Ellie, or face a ruined career. The result leads them into the deadly world of laser-guided rosary peas and spam cupcakes. But can Ellie and Sam put aside their differences in order to save their careers, and is there a happily-ever-after waiting for them at the end?
