Everyone gets their feelings hurt in life. As these wounds fester and compound throughout life, they become scars that affect our current relationships. Anyone suffering from a wounded heart feels a sense of separation from people, but the separation it creates from our heavenly Father is far worse for our mind, body and soul. “Broken Heart Syndrome” is a recognized medical condition. Tests show that the pain caused by relational stress or trauma releases stress hormones to circulate through the body. This causes the inner layers of the heart to shred, damaging the cardiac muscle and its capacity to pump blood throughout the body. The chest pain this can cause resembles a serious heart attack. Stents or angioplasty can treat blocked vessels, but modern medicine still has no quick fix for a broken heart. Joan Hunter reveals how to heal your heart from past hurts. To do this, you must be set free from the trauma of past relationships that prevent you from giving of yourself to those most important to you today. In doing so, you will also restore your most important relationship—the one with your heavenly Father.

Morrison brings it all home in an explosive novel about a woman trying too hard for love--and a man escaping from too many secrets... Thirtysomething Sequoia Moore is sure that this time, things will be different. Finally, she will fulfill her deepest dream--to have a husband and children. A nurse who pursues romance as hard as she's worked to build a successful, stable life, Sequoia just knows that charming Zen Hurston will make the perfect partner and devoted father if she cares and supports him enough... A man scarred by abandonment, Zen never lets anyone get too close. Not his many bedmates, his several baby-mothers, or his numerous children. To him, love is a game that enables him to live well off the hard work of women--and keep on moving beyond his hurt and loneliness. He's drawn to Sequoia's warmhearted affection, and the nights between them are only getting hotter and more irresistible. Still, he'll be there for her only on his terms... But a devastating medical diagnosis will force Sequoia to rely on unsuspected strength within her she never felt confident enough to trust. And Zen will have only one chance to confront his past when the bitter consequences of his choices finally start coming home. And somehow, they must find the self-knowledge and independence to at last discover what they really want--and really need--before it's too late...
