Gone. . . but not forgotten? Amy loved everything about her mom: her smile, her smell, her gentle laugh. On the day her mom died, it felt as though the sun went dark. Her dad bought a house with wheels and they started moving, but no matter how many new places they went, the sun never came back out.  At least, not until Mary showed up and handed Amy a box of Froot Loops.  Amy loved Mary from the very first day—almost as much as her dad did.  Amy began calling Mary "e;Mom"e; shortly after the wedding without a second thought. After all, Mary cared for her, taught her, and loved her, all the things that moms do. But when her mom's sister comes to visit, Aunt Anica has plenty of questions.  And now, Amy does too.  Does loving Mary mean Amy doesn't love her real mom? Or is there somehow room for all the love Amy feels in her heart?

Can she overcome her fear and find the faith to trust someone else. . .and herself?Trade Reviews and Author Recommendations"e;With an opening line that is both assertive and striking, the book begins with a strong narrator who claims her own story. As Mary tells her past, she becomes vulnerable with those in her life and her readers.Baker's dialogue has the capacity to reflect the diction of a thirty-year-old and a five-year-old, encompassing a wide range of perspectives. Amy's and Chase's imperfect sputters and continual deviance paint an authentic picture of children's behavior.The Christmas setting nearly typecasts this book with all the novelistic qualities of a Hallmark movie. The honeyed beginning and equally passionate ending provide a childish delight that kindles the spirit of a hopeless romantic.Despite the complexities littered throughout this tale, Finding Faith reads like the honeymoon stage of a relationship. It's filled with laughter, an idealized reality, and an endless craving for the story to continue. Luke's and Mary's love offers a temporary euphoria that shows romance is sometimes found where it is least expected."e; Publisher's Weekly"e;Finding Faith is a heartwarming and brilliant story about love, loss, and learning what you really want."e; USA Today Bestselling author, Elana Johnson"e;A fun romance! I highly enjoyed it. Bridget knows how to tug at your heartstrings. A fantastic read!"e; NYT Bestselling Author, Victorine E. Lieske

Life gave her lemons, so Trudy chucked them back. Trudy's life is a wreck. No job, a sick son, and a thick stack of unpaid medical bills.  Her family and friends keep trying to set her up. (As if a man will solve all her problems!) Trudy shuts them all down, because she's got a foolproof plan this time around. She won't go out for so much as a latte until she graduates, finds steady work, and pays off all her debt.  After weeks of looking, she finally lands a paying job. It's only an interim assistant position, but it comes with medical insurance. Everything is going exactly according to plan.  Until she discovers someone is stealing from her new boss. Trudy reluctantly agrees to help him catch the thief—after all, if the business fails, she's out of work—but it grows harder and harder to ignore one tiny detail. Her boss is hotter than a summer day in Atlanta, and he's flirting with her.  But she will not be distracted from what really matters, not this time. She already learned her lesson the hard way—he isn't Mr. Right if you meet him at the wrong time. Can she stay the course? Or will she find that sometimes the best things in life aren't on the checklist?

Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is for chumps. Geo never plans weddings. Corporate retreats, fundraisers, birthday parties, and even the occasional engagement party? Sure. But weddings? Not anymore.  She never dates, either. Not under any circumstance. These two rules keep her safe. They maintain order, and Geo needs a predictable life. So when her best friend Paisley tries to convince her to plan just one wedding, Geo turns her down flat. Until a clinical trial opens up—one that might save (a little bit of) her mother's future. But it costs money, and the only event planning that pays that kind of money is a wedding. How bad can it be to make an exception just this once?

Keeping score is the quickest way to lose.  Anica Maggard was born under a lucky star. Her big sister became her very best friend. Her debut novel was an instant bestseller. She lived in the apartment of her dreams at the age of twenty-five.  But luck changes. . . and sometimes it runs out entirely. Cancer steals her sister, and that loss robs Anica of her words. Years later, she still can't even find the desire to search for them.  Ethan Trainor coasts through life, trading on his boyish grin, cerulean eyes, and ample trust fund to succeed. No one has ever bothered to peel back the façade and discover that Ethan's glorious life didn't begin with a silver spoon.  It began with bars on his windows.  A boiling rage simmers just below the surface, and when the demons from his past swing back around, that fury threatens to consume him.  When fate drags Ethan to Atlanta to confront his past and Anica there to search for her future, can they both find the peace they need to let go? Or will they lose what really matters in the process?
