Savannah, 1864. Confederate Captain Patrick Driscoll and his dear friend and manservant Shadrack "Shad" Bryan leave their tearful families to help fight for the Southern cause. They are to set up fort at Raccoon Island off Georgia's coast in a last-ditch effort to save their beloved city from Union attack. But only days into their assignment, the two men die in each other's arms in a Yankee bombardment. Though the men are gone, their legacy will live on-as will the legend of the priceless Driscoll family treasure the two men have buried on Raccoon Island. Four generations after the Civil War, many Confederate families still remain in Savannah, struggling through the twentieth-century in a South rife with hardball politics, personal vendettas and the hangover of war.

Book Description
"Sara Richardson writes unputdownable, unforgettable stories from the heart" in this emotional holiday novel, where three sisters have one last Christmas to confront their pasts before their lives change forever (Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author). The Buchanan sisters all share special childhood memories of their Aunt Sassy's beloved Juniper Inn. There, they frolicked in the snow, baked sugar cookies, and celebrated the town's annual Christmas extravaganza. They haven't been back to Colorado in nearly fifteen years, but when their aunt invites them for one last Christmas, they can't say no . . . With her ex-husband whisking her children away for the holiday, Dahlia decides it's time to do something for herself. Juniper Springs is just as beautiful as she remembers, but it's also full of surprises -- including the town's handsome doctor, who makes her feel like herself again for the first time in years. To the outside world, baker Magnolia has the ideal marriage. Only the pain and sorrow of infertility have strained her relationship with her husband, perhaps beyond repair. But a holiday miracle is about to change her life. After a whirlwind romance, youngest sister Rose is about to be married, but as the wedding draws near, she's unsettled by her fiancé's expectations that she become a society wife. Spending Christmas with her family could be a necessary reality check -- or the beginning of a brand-new happily ever after. Thanks to the strength of their sisterhood, some mistletoe, and the love of their Aunt Sassy, the Buchanan sisters will discover what it is they truly want this Christmas.

Exciting World Adventures
Author: Ephrem (Ephie) Carrier
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1039143555
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
Exciting World Adventures is a collection of short stories that take place around the world, in settings ranging from Africa all the way to the Arctic. Some tales are fictional depictions of people from vastly different places and walks of life, such as Comfort, a pensive African girl who longs for nothing more than to go to school, and Robert, a young professional who is suddenly freed from his stifling marriage by a shocking turn of events. Other tales are truth stranger than fiction, offering highlights from the author’s globe-trotting life as a naval petty officer, scuba diving enthusiast, and international development volunteer. For example, there was the time when Ephrem landed a plane on a long-abandoned airstrip during a thunderstorm—and had to take off the next day without a runway. Then there was the time when a taxi driver who had agreed to take Ephrem and his wife to the Indian village of Dostpur turned out to have no idea where he was going. By turns funny, heartwarming, and sobering, each and every one of the stories in this book explores the unexpected, complex, and ever curious nature of humanity in societies across the globe.
