Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Some secrets can't stay buried forever. Tiff Steadman has spent seven years running from the broken pieces of her past-the alcoholic parents, the convicted-felon brother, the shame of being "one of those no-good Steadmans." Now, as editor of the Dahlia Weekly, she's finally built the respectable life she's always craved. With a proposal from her upstanding boyfriend Bobby, everything seems perfect. Until her past comes knocking. James Steadman has found God behind prison bars, but freedom feels more terrifying than his cell ever did. All he wants is a chance to reconnect with the little sister he once protected-the sister who now refuses to even acknowledge his existence. When his parole officer sends him to Dahlia, James discovers Tiff's walls run deeper than he imagined, and starting over means confronting the wreckage they both left behind. Two siblings. One devastating secret. And a love that refuses to let go. As wedding plans collide with family secrets, Tiff must choose between the safe life she's built and the messy grace that might heal them both. Can she find the courage to let her brother back into her heart? And can James prove that redemption is real-even for people like them? In a small Southern town where everyone knows everyone's business, some stories are too painful to tell-and too powerful to stay buried. Book Two in the Dahlia Series, where grace meets grit, hearts are mended, and hope finds a way to flourish.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Some betrayals cut deeper than grief itself. Natalie Motts never imagined she'd return to Dahlia, South Carolina--not as the golden girl who once wore the Homecoming crown, but as a shattered woman fleeing the wreckage of her life. The drunk driving accident didn't just kill her fiancé Tucker and her best friend Stacey. It exposed a devastating secret: they were in love with each other. Now back in her hometown, Natalie pours everything she has left into Sunstrokes, a small art shop she opens that becomes her lifeline. Between reconnecting with Finn McCafferty, the kindhearted coffee shop owner next door, and hiring Laney Ricks--a mysterious single mom with secrets in her eyes--Natalie begins to glimpse the possibility of healing. But Laney's past is darker than anyone knows. After eight years trapped in human trafficking, she's risked everything to escape and build a new life for her daughter. With the world at arm's length, she doesn't want anyone to know anything about her past--or the threats she fears around every corner. Just as fragile trust blooms between the two women, danger strikes close to home. Natalie's teenage sister Hayley vanishes, and all signs point to a local trafficking ring. Suddenly Laney must decide: stay silent and protect the safety she's fought so hard to build, or step back into the shadows to help find Hayley before it's too late. Together, two women with everything to lose must face the darkness threatening to destroy the people they love most. In Dahlia, hope has deep roots--but some seeds are hidden in the hardest soil. Book Three in the Dahlia Series, where grace meets grit, hearts are mended, and hope finds a way to flourish.…

Once a celebrated big-city journalist with a promising future, Rebecca now finds herself shattered-jobless, abandoned by her fianc , and haunted by her own desperate attempt to escape it all. The small-town newspaper job in her granny's hometown isn't just a step down but a humiliating reminder of everything she's tried to outrun. If not for reconnecting with her childhood friend, Josh, she'd already be gone.

But Devon's dangerous uncle is closing in, and time is running out for Rebecca to open her eyes and see what's going on before it's too late. As shadows lengthen over Dahlia, Rebecca must decide if she'll retreat to safety or stand her ground for a boy who's fighting his own battles-and perhaps find healing for herself in what she once called the last place on earth she'd ever return to.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. [4], xiii, [1], 513, [3] pages. Illustrations. Chronology. Bibliography. Inscribed by the author on the half-title page. Mark Leonard Shurtleff (born August 9, 1957) is an American attorney and founder of the Shurtleff Law Firm and the Shurtleff Group. He was a partner in the Washington, D.C. office of the law firm Troutman Sanders and served as a Salt Lake County Commissioner and the Attorney General of the state of Utah. He is the first Attorney General in Utah to win re-election for a third term. In April 2013, Shurtleff testified before the United States Senate Judiciary Committee in support of comprehensive immigration reform during the Hearing on the Border Security, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernization Act, S.744. In February, 2013, Shurtleff spoke on Capitol Hill in Washington DC on "The Role of State Attorneys General in Enforcing Federal Law" to Congressional staffers at the Civil Justice Caucus Academy run by George Mason University School of Law. "Dred Scott's inspiring and compelling true story of adventure, courage, love, hatred, and friendship parallels the history of this nation from the long night of slavery to the narrow crack in the door that would ultimately lead to freedom and equality for all men". An illiterate slave, Dred Scott trusted in an all-white, slave-owning jury to declare him free. But after briefly experiencing the glory of freedom and manhood, a new state Supreme Court ordered the cold steel of the shackles to be closed again around his wrists and ankles. Falling to his knees, Dred cried, "Ain't I a man?" Dred answered his own question by rising and taking his fight to the U.S. Supreme Court. Dred ultimately lost his epic battle when the Chief Justice declared that a black man was so inferior that he had "no rights a white man was bound to respect." Dred died not knowing that his undying courage led directly to the election of President Abraham Lincoln and the emancipation proclamation. Dred Scott's inspiring and compelling true story of adventure, courage, love, hatred, and friendship parallels the history of this nation from the long night of slavery to the narrow crack in the door that would ultimately lead to freedom and equality for all men. Dred Scott (c. 1799 - September 17, 1858) was an enslaved African-American man in the United States who unsuccessfully sued for his freedom and that of his wife, Harriet Robinson Scott, and their two daughters in the Dred Scott v. Sandford case of 1857, popularly known as the "Dred Scott case". Scott claimed that he and his wife should be granted their freedom because they had lived in Illinois and the Wisconsin Territory for four years, where slavery was illegal and their laws said that slaveholders gave up their rights to slaves if they stayed for an extended period. In a landmark case, the United States Supreme Court decided 7-2 against Scott, finding that neither he nor any other person of African ancestry could claim citizenship in the United States, and therefore Scott could not bring suit in federal court under diversity of citizenship rules. Moreover, Scott's temporary residence outside Missouri did not bring about his emancipation under the Missouri Compromise, as the court ruled this to have been unconstitutional, as it would "improperly deprive Scott's owner of his legal property". While Chief Justice Roger B. Taney had hoped to settle issues related to slavery and Congressional authority by this decision, it aroused public outrage, deepened sectional tensions between the northern and southern states, and hastened the eventual explosion of their differences into the American Civil War. President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, and the post-Civil War Reconstruction Amendments-the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments-nullified the decision. The Scotts were manumitted by a private arrangement in May 1857. Dred Scott died of tuberculosis a year later. Cash Case (Cover Art) (illustrator).…
