Elijah Banks thought he found his one true love—until she walked out their front door without even saying goodbye. For years he’s lived a hedonistic lifestyle and made sure he never got close to a woman again. Hannah Farsey wants the real deal with her new housemate and is willing to overlook the imperfect parts of his history to get it. When their pasts and presents collide in spectacular fashion, she’s not sure she can trust his declarations. Can this physically flawless man find the courage to commit himself completely to their budding relationship? Or will bitterness and disdain become the signposts to his future? Is the love and desire enough to guide him on the honest path to Hannah? Because of the darkest secret from his past, Elijah’s convinced he’s not good enough for this perfect, beautiful woman. Until she reveals she’s been keeping secrets too…

Book Description
What would you do if Christianity and Judaism were to become illegal? What if your government mandated that large church buildings become government buildings and museums, while small churches were bulldozed? What if all known men and women of God were designated enemies of the state and either imprisoned in solitary confinement or summarily executed? What if the government started a new state religion, which was clearly a substitute for the worship of Yahweh God? What if you seemed to be the only one who recognized the situation, the only person who still recognized and prayed to God? Would you keep a low profile for your own safety? Would you pray for God’s honor? This is exactly the situation in which Elijah found himself in ancient Israel. Not only was he apparently the only man of God left in the land, he was seemingly a nobody. He was an ordinary man living in a rural area. Join us as we examine Elijah’s life in the crucible of ancient Israel, where he jumped from obscurity to the most wanted, where the entire government mobilized itself to find him, in order to put him to death. Join us as we follow his death-defying steps to one of the greatest miracles of God in all history. Would you like to be an Elijah?

I swore no one would ever have that kind of power over me again… Elijah Banks is a textbook playboy. On the outside, he was cut from the perfect mold—stunning good looks, beachside mansion, secretive job, sexual notoriety. On the inside, he’s bitter and hurt and has sworn to never be the victim of a lying, cheating, using woman again. Hannah Farsey is the family good girl. Not but choice, but by fate’s design. When she becomes Elijah’s houseguest and obvious object of his desire, she’s determined to not let a childhood nightmare be the narrative of at least one relationship in her life. But when your secret is this big…your burden this heavy…fate doesn’t hand over control so easily. A lesson Hannah’s about to learn the hard way. Will this too-good-to-be-true man’s overwhelming and all-consuming feelings for her go the distance while she endures more upheaval in her life? Or will he cut bait and run and prove Hannah was just another one of Elijah’s Whims?
