Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The burn was supposed to make the water safe. The men who lit it knew better.Four days after tank cars left the rails above Kettle Fork, North Carolina, the smoke has cleared, the contractor has posted a notice, and every house in the hollow has been told the creek is fine.Laurel Greer knows better, and she cannot prove it. She is the only nurse practitioner in the valley, the one who trained away and came straight back because there was nobody else, and the charts going up on her wall have started to rhyme. Same fever. Same rash. Different houses, and one creek running past all their back doors. The only people allowed to test that water are the people who spilled it.Cort Dabney drives the disaster relief truck in, hauls what needs hauling, and plans to be gone before anybody learns his name. Nobody has ever kept him, and he quit waiting on it a long time ago. Then the church kitchen sets him a plate he did not ask for, a train-mad seven-year-old picks him out of a crowd, and Cort notices one thing at the derailment site that does not match the paperwork.Advent comes to the mountains. The one road out narrows to a single lane and closes at night. Up the gap a machine is idling, and the truth about the water has a deadline.Clean, closed door, and honest about the faith at its center: a slow-burn romance, an ordinary evil in a Sunday suit, and a Christmas Eve worth staying for.Book 4 in the Broken Ground Series. Each book can be read as a standalone.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The water took her diner. The ground gave back a body.Nora Keene buried a husband young and built her whole life back around a chrome-edged counter, a six-year-old girl, and a plan for everything. Then the Laurel River came up over its banks in the night and took the low streets, the mill floor, and the last thing she had. She has a camp kitchen to run and both hands on the wheel. She is done handing God anything else to take.Micah Barrett comes in with Cornerstone, the volunteer crew that puts wrecked towns back together for free. He can read a hundred-year-old house the way other men read scripture, and he cannot stand to be thanked. He served his years. He has stayed sober. He is still working off a debt he does not believe will ever be square.Then the flood-cut ground beside an empty riverbank house gives up bones, and a story Hollow's Bend settled a generation ago stops being true. Suspicion goes where it always goes: to the outsider with the record. The only person who can prove otherwise is the woman keeping the town's old paperwork, and the harder Nora looks, the less her own town adds up.Someone here has spent a lifetime being everybody's friend to keep this buried. He is patient, he is trusted, and he is not finished.She will have to let herself need somebody. He will have to let himself be forgiven. And they are running out of dry ground to do it on.Faith, grace, and second chances. Small-town warmth, real danger, and a love story that never crosses the line. Book 1 in the Broken Ground Series. Each book can be read as a standalone.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The ice came down the night Advent began.By morning Balsam Hollow had no power, no road out, and no roof on the church that has carried its music for a hundred years. The Fraser firs that pay for this valley's Christmas are lying broken in the rows. And Lorna Decker, choir director, tree farmer, and the woman who has quietly carried this town's grief for most of her life, is still standing in front of a cold, frightened choir in a packing barn, giving the downbeat to a God she stopped expecting to answer.Gid Ackerman comes up the iced gorge with a volunteer crew, a load of lumber, and no intention of staying. He has rebuilt other people's homes for years because he could not save his own. He reads a wrecked building from the load down, finds the one beam still carrying weight, and is gone before anyone learns his name.Then his crew opens the wall of the old manse beside the church, and the storm gives back what the valley buried with its carols. Nine Christmases ago Lorna's sister Ivy walked out and left her baby girl behind. Everyone said she ran. Lorna never believed it. What comes out of that wall says Ivy never packed to leave at all.Somebody in Balsam Hollow has been loved and trusted for nine years. Somebody wants that wall closed back up, and the crew off this mountain before the thaw.A cold case under the floorboards, a rebuild crew who work for free, and two people past fifty who both quit hoping for a second home. Faith that costs something, a town worth saving, and a Christmas nobody in the Hollow will forget.Book 2 in the Broken Ground Series. Each book can be read as a standalone.…
