The Winslows of Texas, Book 2

The Diamond Tree

A child on the run. A woman lost in a storm.

When Nora Winslow sets out alone on a mission of mercy in the Montana mountains, a fallen tree blocks her path. An avid hiker and not far from her destination, she continues on foot only to lose her way in a sudden, heavy snowstorm.

Reclusive and handsome mountain man, Eryk Sobec, finds Nora half-frozen on his land. At the same time, his nearest neighbor, his brother Alek, rescues a frightened little girl named Willa, who is desperately running from depraved men intent on hurting her. When those same men attack both Sobec homesteads in their relentless pursuit of Willa, the brothers make a desperate choice: gather everyone under one roof and prepare for a siege.

Screams echo through the night. Gunfire shatters windows. Livestock become targets. In the strained yet quiet moments between attacks, Nora and Eryk discover something unexpected: a connection neither can ignore and the fragile promise of something more. But evil surrounds them.

Survival demands everything they can give. Their strength is tested. Their faith is tested.

Trapped in a place where hope collides with danger, will love and faith find a way through the storm?

Sophie O’Brion Mysteries .

It has been clearly spoken by many who know Sophie that she’s impetuous, nosy, curious to a fault, full of energy, thoughtful, sees the world through the eyes of humor, and loves a good mystery. She gets herself into all kinds of trouble, and some of the trouble is frightening, involving really evil people, but somehow, in the midst of all of it, she says the funniest things. One 5-Star reviewer said that her books are, “Decidedly unputdownable! Extraordinary in so many ways! I thoroughly enjoyed every word of this … thoroughly engaging tale!” So…get to know Sophie yourself. It’s quite the ride!

Jake’s wife and toddler died in a fiery accident. What made it even more painful is that an unidentified man died in the car with them. The police asked if his wife could have been having an affair. That question haunts Jake because he doesn’t know the answer.

Honor is a marriage counselor who was stood up at the altar not once but twice. Her professional reputation is damaged–who would want such a failure at love to give advice about marriage? She doesn’t trust herself, either, to make good decisions about men.

Jake and Honor meet and manage to stumble their way toward friendship and quite possibly more. But their lives are turned upside down when trust in each other is needed the most, and neither has it to give.

Together, Jake and Honor must learn that their past failures don’t have to define their future, that even after love has broken their hearts, they can find love again.
