That sardonic curl of the lip, chiselled features to die for, that roguish glint in the eye… Notorious ‘ladies’ man’ Lord Rowley has always had beauties falling at his feet. But none loves him more than auburn-haired Darcia, his lovely seventeen-year-old daughter. So she’s thrilled to be home at last… Not so thrilled that he’s sending her to France posing as a French Comtesse so that she’s untainted by his roguish reputation. But headstrong Darcia has other ideas. Posing as a decorator, she follows her heart into the home and the arms of the magnificent Earl of Kirkhampton, whom she has adored from since childhood, to find her Fate. At last she’s found the Perfection of Love – but how can it be perfect if it’s based on a lie?

It’s Time to Laugh Away the Myth of the “Perfect Woman.” Women juggle endless responsibilities these days, from bringing home the bacon and frying it up in the pan to making sure husband and kids have a good supply of pork rinds—and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Whether we’re creating (burnt) offerings in the kitchen, balancing listing checkbooks, or keeping romance alive and well (or at least breathing), women can quickly become burned out, stressed out, and just plain worn out. In When Perfect Isn’t Enough, humor writer Nancy Kennedy approaches this misperception with her trademark wit, describing a hilarious quest to become the Proverbs 31 Woman that will bring relief to your heart and tears of laughter to your eyes. Like Nancy, you will be profoundly changed by a life-transforming truth: God loves you just as you are and has given you all the grace and gifts you need to be exactly who he has called you to be.

Throughout this century the Letter of James has been viewed consistently as a disjointed set of instructions. Father Hartin deviates radically from this approach. He shows that the "call for perfection" provides a unifying meaning for the letter. Examining the concept of perfection against the background of the Greco-Roman world, the Old Testament, and the Septuagint, the author shows that perfection provides a key to define the spirituality of the Letter of James. It offers an understanding of God and of the way one is called "to be in the world." Hartin adopts a fresh approach toward understanding the categories of wisdom, eschatology, and apocalyptic as they illuminate the letter's advice.
