Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,422
Cassie Hanwell was born for emergencies. As one of the only female firefighters in her Texas firehouse, she's seen her fair share of them, and she's excellent at dealing with other people's tragedies. But when her estranged and ailing mother asks her to uproot her life and move to Boston, it's an emergency of a kind Cassie never anticipated. The tough, old-school Boston firehouse is as different from Cassie's old job as it could possibly be. Hazing, a lack of funding, and poor facilities mean that the firemen aren't exactly thrilled to have a "lady" on the crew.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 61
Jason Cashman has reached the goal he spent the last 20 years seeking, but instead of feeling content, he feels empty. When he meets Alexandra Lopez, a 10-year-old America-loving girl facing deportation, he is inspired by his old friend, Murray McBride, to give her five wishes before she must leave. They set out to check off as many wishes as possible, but when Jason's transplanted heart begins to fail, he must choose between his obligations to the past and his hope for a future.

There are just a few problems: he’s in prison, and she doesn’t know what he did to end up there.

In her search for unconditional love, Ashley begins dating a boy her mother hates.

Life - if you've ever thought you might be doing it wrong, you're not alone. Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person is a collection of essays that explores what it means to be alive. Like Polaroids framing the years of a troubadour and family man afflicted with an excess of self-awareness, these are stories without any clear good guys or bad guys. Instead, in each of these vignettes you will find dysfunctional humans trying to do their best and bouncing off each other in the process.

Addie Byler may be Apple Creek's resident wallflower, but she knows she has a lot to offer—and much to be grateful for. Raised by her loving grandmother, she lives a life filled with good friends and hard work. Wary of romance, Addie assumes no man will look beyond her glasses and her tendency to talk to her rescue donkey, Snickers—until the day she finds a note from a secret admirer. A prank, most likely. But then, a second note arrives . . .

Heart warming story
A Ray of Hope is a great book. The story starts with a pretty typical teenage boy named Steve who meets Ray, a mysterious loner, they become the best of friends. Suddenly something happens that changes their small town lives and begin adventure to try to uncover what and why this is happening. The author was pleasantly detailed in the characters feelings/emotions so it made it relatable and also made it feel like these characters were someone you really knew.
There were times I did not want to stop reading, kept me on my toes and wanting more.
Lots of internal questions, suspense, mystery, and romance.
I would love to see a sequel book come out!
