The Shipyard Man by Ann Streetman

The late summer Sunday morning in 1905 appeared to be as boring as ever for Mary Johns Leonard until a stranger slid into the pew in front of her and her daughter Callie.

When the prayer ended, Mary stole a glance at the stranger before turning to the right page in the hymnal. She began to sing. The tenor voice of the stranger singing “Love Devine All Loves Excelling” was the most beautiful male voice she had ever heard. Could he be a professional singer passing through?

Mary’s eyes strayed to his broad shoulders more than once during the sermon. The collar on his shirt was clean, but frayed. Surely no traveling performer would have such a frayed collar. His straight black hair was clean but a bit too long at the nape of his neck. Working too hard to stop for a haircut?

The next day Mary looked up from the counter in her pappa’s general store to see the stranger. By the time he left, she knew he had grown up in Oregon where he worked at a sawmill and later helped build ships. A shipyard man. Clearly not like anyone she had ever known. A very interesting stranger.

Come along with Mary and Bill in their rocky journey of learning more about themselves and each other. This book does not easily fit into a neat category. Mary’s journey of self-discovery is Women’s Fiction. The love story of Mary and Bill is unmistakable Romance. It could be called Christian fiction since their faith is a significant part of their love story. Call it what you will and enjoy the journey of Mary and Bill.

From the International Bestselling author, Sagar Constantin comes the first book in the addictive IN-BETWEEN series.

Eva Monroe is returning from a three-week business trip, one in which she left her five-year-old son in the care of her estranged ex-husband when the plane that’s taking her home crashes. 

The accident leaves her in a coma, unresponsive to doctors’ attention and the urgings of her little boy.

However, while Eva’s body lies on the precipice of death, Eva’s spirit has traveled to a place known as the In-Between – a world that is hovering in the clouds above our planet.

The In-Between is a temporary home for people where they must decide whether to return to their lives on Earth or move on to the next stage in their development.

It is a wondrous place, filled with spiritual aids and advanced technology. It is also a place where a person faces themself fully for the first time.

When Eva arrives at the In-Between, she is utterly sure of her decision: she wants to return to her son. 

Yet, she soon realizes that what she believes about herself and her place in the world isn’t as straightforward as she’d always assumed. 

And with this realization comes the understanding that her decision will be much harder to make than she ever would have guessed. 

Thus, she is faced with the most challenging decision a parent can make.
