New York Times bestselling author Virginia Henley brings her trademark passion, power, and steamy sensuality to this dazzling work of romance fiction–an unforgettable tale of a headstrong Englishwoman abducted by a Scotsman seeking passionate revenge.... Raven Carleton is every inch the English lady. But on this glorious morning, as she gallops along the seacoast, Raven is thinking about her freedom, not her imminent betrothal to aristocratic Christopher Dacre. Suddenly Raven is forced to draw rein when a man appears directly in her path. Silhouetted against the predawn sky, he is magnificent–a darkly powerful stranger who will alter the course of her life. When Scotsman Heath Kennedy first glimpses Raven Carleton, he sees a creature of such infinite loveliness, she takes his breath away. But in a land divided, Raven is about to become a pawn in the bitter border wars between England and Scotland. Abducted by Heath and held for ransom, Raven finds herself attracted to him in ways she never could have imagined...and Heath is utterly beguiled by his headstrong captive. Risking the wrath of two realms, the Scotsman does the unthinkable: He offers Raven her freedom. He asks only one thing in return.

In 1993, Andrew Brunson was asked to travel to Turkey, the largest unevangelized country in the world, to serve as a missionary. Though hesitant because of the daunting and dangerous task that lay ahead, Andrew and his wife, Norine, believed this was God's plan for them. What followed was a string of threats and attacks, but also successes in starting new churches in a place where many people had never met a Christian. As their work with refugees from Syria, including Kurds, gained attention and suspicion, Andrew and Norine acknowledged the threat but accepted the risk, determining to stay unless God told them to leave. In 2016, they were arrested. Though the State eventually released Norine, who remained in Turkey, Andrew was imprisoned. Accused of being a spy and being among the plotters of the attempted coup, he became a political pawn whose story soon became known around the world. God's Hostage is the incredible true story of his imprisonment, his brokenness, and his eventual freedom. Anyone with a heart for missions, especially to the Muslim world, will love this tension-laden and faith-laced book.

Mexican Cartels have for many years been active on this side of the Mexico/Texas border in drug and human trafficking, but are now often shielded by so-called legitimate businesses. Terror on the Border vividly illustrates this growing problem. An innocent Mexican girl, Juanita Delgado, a victim of human trafficking, and her flawed ex-sniper American husband, facially disfigured in Iraq, heroically fight the malicious leaders of the Lobos cartel, led by egotistical Hernan Cortez and his evil enforcer, Manuela. The exploits begin when Juanita's North American cousin, a Border Patrol Officer, Orlando Delgado, is kidnapped by the Lobos while on duty. He and Juanita, also taken hostage, manage to escape a torture chamber, only to face a fierce battle at Uncle Joseph Delgado's ranch on U.S. soil near Laredo, a horrid kidnapping in Dallas' posh Highland Park, and more bloody confrontations on and near the border. She and Orlando are joined in the struggle by her brave soldier husband and two Dallas private detectives. The twists and turns of Terror on the Border will rivet your attention as you learn more about the real nature of the evil cartels that have expanded into the U.S.
