Book Description
Becky rocks a baby that rocked her world. Sixty years earlier, with her fiancé Drew in the middle of the Korean Conflict, Ivy throws herself into her work at a nursing home to keep her sanity and provide for the child Drew doesn't know is coming. Ivy cares for Anna, an elderly patient who taxes Ivy's listening ear until the day she suspects Anna's tall tales are not the ramblings of dementia. They're fragments of Anna's disjointed memories of a remarkable life. Finding a faint thread of hope she can't resist tugging, Ivy records Anna's memoir, scribbling furiously after hours to keep up with the woman's emotion-packed, grace-hemmed stories. Is Ivy's answer buried in Anna's past? Becky, Ivy, Anna--three women fight a tangled vine of deception in search of the blossoming simplicity of truth.

Book Description
The Vietnam War is raging. Rick has fulfilled his obligation to his country by registering with Selective Services. But the last thing he wants is to be called up by Uncle Sam, at least not now. Rick could hardly wait to graduate high school and leave his hometown of Tranquillity. He hated spending his summers chopping cotton. The dry ground, blistering heat, and calloused hands were a stark reminder of why he didn’t want to spend his life working the fields. His father had chosen that life, but Rick knew it wasn’t for him. After all, he had a higher calling. He is going to be a preacher. Rick’s first year of Bible college is a dream come true. Not only does he cherish the opportunity to study for the ministry, but he also has just met Anna. His future was falling into place until an unforeseen chain of events leads him down a forbidden path... Will Rick find the peace he unknowingly seeks? The War Within is a story about life’s pitfalls that sometimes cause us to ask ourselves, “Is there really a God?”
