Sweet Madness
Summary
Winner of the National Excellence in Romance Fiction Award, the Write Touch Readers Award, and the Book Buyers Best Top Pick. The war hero who is barely holding on... Gabriel Devereaux, Marquess of Bromwich, may have returned from the Napoleonic Wars sound of body, but his mind is plagued in ways he does not understand. After a particularly frightening episode, he commits himself to a private asylum of good repute. Gabriel is desperate to recover, and if he cannot, to protect the ones he loves - even from himself. The woman who won't let him go... Lady Penelope Bridgeman has dedicated her life to treating traumatized soldiers, though nothing will ever make up for her inability to save her own husband. When Gabriel's illness seems eerily similar to the madness that made her a widow, Penelope is terrified that she will fail again - and cost another man his life. But her heart won't let her refuse to help, even if it means facing both her past and her own demons. Gabriel pushes Penelope away to keep her safe, but a fragile trust slowly grows between them, forged by a deeper bond of loss. Though Penelope damns herself a fool for loving yet another broken man, she'll do anything to save Gabriel - no matter the cost. She never expects that he might be the one to save her, too. "Sweet and heart-wrenching...utterly refreshing." (Night Owls Reviews top pick)

Summary
New from best-selling Proverbs 31 author Suzanne Eller! Without realizing it, we've gotten lost in our own little lives.

Unpacking the promises and teachings Jesus shared with the disciples about the Holy Spirit, Suzanne shows how you can stop settling and start truly living. When you learn to unwrap the gift of his presence, you'll find the world-changing, foundation-shaking, soul-stirring life of passion and purpose God is waiting to give you.

Dragon Bones
Summary
Sure, I can rock a tank top and ponytail while collecting ancient relics, but don’t call me a tomb raider. I knew the guy who built the pyramids...and I mean in the biblical sense. Archaeologist, fashionista, and an ancient immortal with a serious memory problem, Dr. Nia Rivers has spent the last few centuries filling in the blanks of her past, all while outrunning dark assassins and stealing brief moments alone with Zane, her immortal lover. But when a 2,000-year-old relic from her past resurfaces, Nia isn't sure if the story connected to it is one she wants told to the world. The fact that Tres Mohandis, a fellow immortal and Nia’s greatest rival, is determined to develop the land and bury the site before Nia can excavate it suggests some dark history lies hidden in the site. Worse, Nia is beginning to realize that she doesn’t dislike the broody billionaire land developer as much as she remembers. Letting Tres have his way might be best for Nia, especially when the truth might expose a horrific crime from Nia's past - one with her name written all over it. But don’t all stories deserve to be told? Even the ugliest ones. Even if it proves she’s not at all who she thinks she is. Get this hot urban fantasy featuring spine-tingling adventure, twists on historical mysteries, and thrilling romance, where Tomb Raider meets Indiana Jones - and they live forever!

Stormy Seas
Summary
It's not Halloween but horror is hitting The Bounding Storm ...and Rowan Gray couldn't be more excited. That's right, the Indie Horror Movies are being held on the ship and that means the entire guest list is made up of members of the B-movie industry. As a horror buff, Rowan is having trouble containing her enthusiasm. She can't wait to meet some of her favorites, although the experience might not be all she dreamed about. From a security perspective, the awards don't offer up much trouble for Quinn Davenport - other than the expensive camera serving as the grand prize. He's more interested in keeping Rowan out of trouble than anything else. When Rowan's special gift rears its ugly head and one of the biggest actresses falls under a death omen, Quinn and Rowan find themselves in the unenviable position of watching her without tipping their hands. When she goes missing, they expect the worst ...and that's long before death officially comes calling. Rowan may love horror movies but she doesn't enjoy fiction intruding on real life. Something big is going on - and it seems all the guests have a secret. Rowan needs to sort through the lies, discover the truth, and find a way to save the day. That's if she herself survives, of course, which is no guarantee on a ship full of potential killers. A storm is coming, and a killer is in their midst. It's anybody's guess who will make it to the final credits.

Sunken Seas
Summary
The Bounding Storm is racing toward adventure, and this time it’s something completely out of the ordinary. Rowan Gray still can’t wrap her mind around the fact that an old shipwreck – one that could make salvagers rich beyond their wildest dreams – is going to be The Bounding Storm’s main focus for a full week. It’s true, though, and the shift in demeanor on the boat is exciting and worrisome at the same time. Even Rowan’s boyfriend Quinn isn’t immune and he’s swept up in the grandeur of the event, right until things turn sour and someone attacks one of the divers. It becomes clear rather quickly that something else is going on and someone has nefarious designs on the find. If that weren’t bad enough, Rowan finds herself at odds with the salvage team leader – a man who she recognizes on a level she can’t quite explain – and her tragic past is about to push to the forefront when the man’s identity becomes known. There’s only one question: Is he friend or foe? Rowan has to figure it out fast because when things come to a head, she has to decide who is on the side of right and who is trying to commit a terrible wrong. If she doesn’t make the correct decision, someone could die, including her. It’s all hands on deck for another adventure, and whether everyone will live to make history is anyone’s guess.
