She goes to live with her aunt and uncle, who are in service to a wealthy, noble family, the Wingates, outside of London.

She is drawn to the eldest son of the Wingate family, Davis, and gradually her adolescent fascination grows into something deeper_but just as hopeless, because the two are separated not just by class standing but also by Davis’s love for Roberta.

There, Gervase crosses paths with Davis once more and this time senses some real warmth and affection from him_but since he’s a married man, she discourages it. When she returns to England, Gervase receives word that Davis has been seriously injured in a fall and lies in a coma. She accepts the Wingates’ call to come and care for him. As he slowly regains consciousness and the ability to communicate, he reveals to Gervase that his “accident” was actually attempted murder, and that his life_and hers_are still in danger.

Just before the final This riveting sequel to Could I Have This Dance? answers a question that haunted the protagonist at the end of that novel: Does Claire McCall, M.D., have the gene for Huntington’s Disease, the disease that disabled her father? The new novel begins with Claire already having made a significant decision: she has withdrawn from surgical training at Lafayette University Hospital in Boston and returned to Stoney Creek to become a primary-care physician, where she will be able to help her mother in caring for her now completely disabled father. She has also decided to undergo the testing required to determine whether she carries the HD gene. Her relationship with John Serelli has been rekindled, as well. Just before the final counseling session leading up to the revelation of the results of that testing–when Claire will discover once and for all whether she carries the gene–she discovers an engagement ring hidden in John’s car and becomes convinced that he is going to “pop the question” before she opens the letter revealing her gene status. When John doesn’t ask, Claire runs out of the counseling session in tears, not wanting to find out the results of her HD test. She is convinced that his love for her is conditional on her gene status, and may not be love at all. Claire copes by plunging herself into her work. One of her patients is a young woman abused by her husband. During the woman’s recovery from a severe beating, she is raped by a man wearing a surgical mask–a man the patient presumes is her abusive husband in disguise. The woman becomes pregnant, but has a miscarriage. Then a second and a third woman are raped by a man with a similar disguise.

1 Tuesday Morning
$17.99Jake Bryan is a New York City fireman and devoted family man. He has a storybook marriage to Jenny, his high school sweetheart. Taped to the inside of his helmet is the photograph and name of their four-year-old daughter, Sierra. Eric Michaels is a driven financial manager who has spent the past five years climbing the corporate ladder, often at the expense of his wife, Amber, and two young sons. On September 11, 2001, Eric is doing business on the 91st floor of the World Trade Center when the building is hit by a commercial airliner. In the race down the smoky stairwell, Eric falls. At the same moment, firefighter Jake Bryan is rushing up the stairs. He stops and helps Eric to his feet and as he does, his helmet falls. Eric hands the helmet back to the fireman and both men freeze momentarily, stunned by the uncanny resemblance between them. Minutes later the building begins to shake and crumble. When Eric Michaels awakens he is beneath a fire truck. He is burned and bloody, and most of his clothes have been blown off. A fire captain rushes to his side, thinking he recognizes his friend Jake, and leads him to a triage center, then contacts the woman he assumes is the man’s wife Jenny Bryan. By the time she arrives at the hospital, Eric’s face is bandaged from the burns and injuries. When the bandages come off, days later, Jenny assumes that the difference in his appearance is due to the effects of the burns. Eric remembers almost nothing from before the attack. In the months that follow, Eric struggles to fill the gaps in his memory and to relate to a wife and daughter he doesn’t remember. On the opposite coast, Amber, grieving the loss of her husband, is helped by Eric’s best friend–a single man who has always adored her. Then Eric begins having disturbing dreams and flashbacks–of a different family. And questions begin to grow in Jenny’s mind.

Singsation
$31.41This second release from co-publishers Warner Books and Walk Worthy Press makes a solid contribution to the limited pool of quality Christian fiction titles written for and by African-Americans. Deborah Anne Peterson sings hymns at her small hometown church, but envisions herself performing in much glitzier venues. A fortuitous encounter with rap star Triage Blue gives her a chance to break into the big time. As she climbs the ladder of success and wrestles with the temptations that go with it, she wonders is this really what God wants her to do with her talent? The novel pushes the parameters of traditional Christian fiction with characters who have long discussions about underwear and thongs, engage in some French kissing and exclaim, “Oh my God!” The sexual situations aren’t graphic, but they are more titillating than most CBA readers are used to, although noticeably toned down from Walk Worthy’s first book, Temptation. The reader must sometimes suspend belief; in less than a year, Deborah changes from a country girl into a music star who performs at the Grammys. Another character’s deathbed conversion is also less than satisfying. But the portrayal of Deborah’s loving relationship with her parents is both touching and refreshing. This is a laudable effort to bring an African-American perspective and a slightly edgier tone into Christian fiction, while keeping the gospel message up front and center.

Womens Intuition
$20.99Samson, author of The Church Ladies, stakes out her claim as a novelist of distinction for readers who enjoy evangelical Christian fiction but often choke on the pabulum that passes for it. Larkspur Summerville is a 41-year-old paranoid virtual recluse who for 20 years has kept a secret from her family-a secret that now threatens to become her undoing. Raised Methodist, her sanity is partially tethered to playing the organ for St. Dominic’s Catholic Church and experiencing the loving friendship of its priests, although Lark admits, “The whole Mary thing unsettles me.” Lark spends most of her free time running a toll-free prayer line, 1-777-IPRAY4U. When Lark’s house burns to the ground, she is forced to seek refuge with her estranged mother, Leslie, and Leslie’s live-in housekeeper and Internet guru, Prisma Percy. Rounding out the household is Lark’s hip, artsy daughter, Flannery, a barista at Starbucks, whose sanity is the glue that holds her strange family together. The finely crafted, first-person narratives alternate among the four women, with a short ending chapter from Lark’s brother, Newly. Samson occasionally overwrites and is a little heavy on the dialogue, but her prose is mostly excellent, and the characters appealing and compelling. The centerpiece of the novel is its beautiful depiction of faith and fear that avoids canned Christian gospel presentation scenes but is clear in its message. With this offering, Samson places herself in the ranks of the CBA’s best novelists, with writing that has the potential to find a general readership as well.

Hometown Legend
$31.41The coauthor of the blockbuster Left Behind series inks the appealing, happily-ever-after Hometown Legend, about a small town in severe financial straits and its former championship football team, written in a made-for-the-movies style that will earn author Jerry Jenkins some new fans. There are some likable characters in this yarn. Lonely widower Cal Sawyer is juggling several balls at once: raising his teenage daughter Rachel, helping coach the down-at-the-heels Athens City High football team, and trying to keep the American Leather Football Company from going belly up. He doesn’t count on the impact Elvis Presley Jackson will have on the football season–and on his daughter. Bev Raschke, Sawyer’s single, 40-something assistant, has her eye on him, but as Sawyer says, “She’s got two cats, and that’s about all I need to know about a woman.” Romance is inevitable. As the novel unfolds, mostly told in Sawyer’s rambling, Southern drawl, we see trouble brewing in his personal life, on the football team, and with the unfolding of Elvis’s past. But never fear–there’s a happy ending in sight. No loose ends are left dangling, and there’s a heartwarming, feel-good wrap-up with a bit of a spin that will satisfy Left Behind aficionados who enjoy a predestined finish to their leisure reading.
