I blazed through this book in one sitting because I just couldn't wait to find out what would happen next!" - Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of With Love, from Cold World An enemies to lovers romance with a spooky twist where two feuding writers end up on a writers retreat together at a haunted castle in Scotland It's been months since horror author Penelope Skinner threw a book at Neil Storm. But he was so infuriating, with his sparkling green eyes and his bestselling horror novels that claimed to break Native stereotypes. And now she’s a publishing pariah and hasn’t been able to write a word since. So when her friend invites her on a too-good-to-be-true writers retreat in a supposedly haunted Scottish castle, she seizes the opportunity. Of course, some things really are too good to be true. Neil wants nothing less than to be trapped in a castle with the frustratingly adorable woman who threw a book at him. She drew blood! Worse still, she unleashed a serious case of self-doubt! Neil is terrified to write another bestselling “book without a soul,” as Pen called it. All Neil wants is to find inspiration, while completely avoiding her. But as the retreat begins, Pen and Neil are stunned to find themselves trapped in a real-life ghost story. Even more horrifying, they’re stuck together and a truly shocking (extremely hot) almost-kiss has left them rethinking their feelings, and... maybe they shouldn’t have been enemies at all? But if they can’t stop the ghosts pursuing them, they may never have the chance to find out. Full of spooky chills and even more sexy thrills, If I Stopped Haunting You by Colby Wilkens is the funny, fast-paced romp romance readers have been waiting for! "I didn't realize I needed a romance book married to cozy horror but now I'm wondering where this particular mashup has been all my life. Can't wait to read the next!" - Jessica Clare, New York Times bestselling author

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Girl with Ghost Eyes is a fun, fun read. Martial arts and Asian magic set in Old San Francisco make for a fresh take on urban fantasy, a wonderful story that kept me up late to finish.” —#1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia Briggs It’s the end of the nineteenth century in San Francisco’s Chinatown, and ghost hunters from the Maoshan traditions of Daoism keep malevolent spiritual forces at bay. Li-lin, the daughter of a renowned Daoshi exorcist, is a young widow burdened with yin eyes—the unique ability to see the spirit world. Her spiritual visions and the death of her husband bring shame to Li-lin and her father—and shame is not something this immigrant family can afford. When a sorcerer cripples her father, terrible plans are set in motion, and only Li-lin can stop them. To aid her are her martial arts and a peachwood sword, her burning paper talismans, and a wisecracking spirit in the form of a human eyeball tucked away in her pocket. Navigating the dangerous alleys and backrooms of a male-dominated Chinatown, Li-lin must confront evil spirits, gangsters, and soulstealers before the sorcerer’s ritual summons an ancient evil that could burn Chinatown to the ground. With a rich and inventive historical setting, nonstop martial arts action, authentic Chinese magic, and bizarre monsters from Asian folklore, The Girl with Ghost Eyes is also the poignant story of a young immigrant searching to find her place beside the long shadow of a demanding father and the stigma of widowhood. In a Chinatown caught between tradition and modernity, one woman may be the key to holding everything together.

Human beings that He has a plan for, regardless of their past." ""Pastor Norman Lawrence

Download or read book Sermon Transcripts written by Zondervan Publishing and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 1998-02-15 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been said that church is not a club for saints but a hospital for saved sinners. Today especially, with issues such as alcoholism, divorce, sexual abuse, homosexuality, domestic violence, and drug addiction as near to us as the next pew---or our own---a typical Sunday school class or Bible study alone just won't cut it when it comes to helping wounded people discover the healing and liberty Christ offers them. Celebrate Recovery fills a long-standing need in the church in its role as Christ's healing agent. Developed by Rick Warren and John Baker of the celebrated Saddleback Church, this program has already proved itself. In just six years, its remarkable, life-changing effectiveness has gained it an explosive, grass-roots popularity. Now Zondervan teams with the program's Saddleback authors to bring churches everywhere the first-ever 12-step recovery curriculum that's distinctively Christian, uncompromisingly biblical, and designed especially for churches. Everything is here: a 45-minute vision-casting video, leader's and participant's guides, audio tapes, software diskettes, and sermon transcripts---all in a tested, groundbreaking program, painstakingly and prayerfully developed to help needy, often desperate people discover new dignity, strength, joy, and growth in the image of Christ. Celebrate Recovery does more than help people resolve painful problems---it does so in the context of the church as a whole. Rather than setting up an isolated recovery community, this program helps both participants and their churches to come together and discover new levels of care, acceptance, trust, and grace. Designed to accommodate churches large or small, this fellowship-based, 52-week curriculum truly is a celebration of Christ in the life of a church and its members.
