Reaching the End Zone: Suzette (The Seminarians Book 2) Mar 20, 2020

by Barbara James , Ashley Strosnider

( 1 )

$2.99

Suzette didn't expect to get her Mrs. degree.

Suzette Nagel never imagined Bobby Sills would show up at the church where she was serving. But there he was, agreeing to take her with him on a road trip from New York City to Virginia for the wedding of her best friend, Ayanna Pagdell, and Bobby’s brother, Todd.

Suzette thought Bobby, an accountant based in New York City, was pleasant, but cool and distant, while Bobby thought Suzette, a seminary graduate student from Massachusetts, wasn’t his type.

By the end of the weekend, they discovered more than they bargained for, an attraction they didn't anticipate. Suzette found that Bobby was more on her wavelength than she ever imagined possible, while Bobby experienced a welcome relief from the cut throat dating scene in New York City.

But will family pressure for her to return home to Massachusetts after graduation force them apart?

***Although this book is the second in a series, it can be read as a stand alone.***

Getting Out of the Comfort Zone: Ayanna (The Seminarians Book 1) Dec 20, 2019

by Barbara James , Ashley Strosnider

$2.99

Ayanna Pagdell, a young military officer and seminary student, had things all figured out. She was going to take her required unit of Clinical Pastoral Education at her local hospital and go on with her career in ministry. But she wasn’t prepared for the emotional intensity of being confronted with her baggage: the things she ignored and the relationships that made her cynical. She wasn’t prepared for meeting Todd Sills, an emergency medical technician and nursing student who made her question what she really wanted in life.

Sparks fly, but there are some problems, too. Ayanna is a chaplain in the Army Reserves who intends to become a minister. Todd is lapsed and dealing with his own stuff: the death of his younger brother and his antiwar activism.

This academic year, they might discover that their attraction is far more important than their differences.

The Wedding Bet: Lauren (Sweet and Sensuous Book 2) Dec 19, 2018

by Barbara James , Mary-Theresa Hussey

$2.99

What if the hottest and most eligible guy you’ve ever met makes you an offer you can't refuse?
College student Lauren Boucher was happy to be a bridesmaid at her friend Annelise Perigault’s wedding. Her partner, groomsman Don Lamoreaux, was too hot for words, but she wasn't interested, because she knew he had a roving eye.
Although he asks her out, she puts him off by saying she’s only interested in dating seriously, and as a conservative Catholic, she won't have sex outside of marriage.
Don admits that he has been quite the player, but he’s open to dating a different type of young woman.
So he calls her bluff. "Date me for six months. If all goes well, we'll get married. I'm dead serious. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain."
Lauren is too shocked for words, but all that means is the game is on.

This is a sweet and sensuous romance novel, with frank discussions of sexuality and one closed door sex scene between the couple once they are married.
This book can be read as a standalone or as part of the series. It takes place in the year between Starting Over: Rick and Going Home: Roger.

Roger M. Young turned his back on his conservative upbringing when he left home at eighteen and joined the Coast Guard. He was quite happy with his life. When he served as a groomsman at his best friend Rick Santelli's wedding, dating Denise Perigault, Rick's teenaged sister-in-law, was the last thing on his mind. And she felt the same way too. Having recently finished her junior year in high school, she was just too young. But once she starts college in the same town where he is stationed, they might change their minds. If Roger wants to date a younger and more traditional woman, he has to figure out whether he is up to the challenge. Can he recall the lessons he learned before he left home?

This is a sweet romance with strong elements of sensuality in a closed door setting.

***This book cover is new***
It is orientation week at Wilder University.
Annelise Perigault has just started college and is away from home. Living on her own for the first time, she struggles to navigate the social landscape. All sorts of groups seek to draw her attention, but she is drawn to the conservative-leaning student groups for a sense of belonging. That is where she believes she will find like-minded young women, those who hope to graduate in four years with their "Mrs. Degree."
Rick Santelli has just started college as well. He is a returning student, however, after spending nearly a decade in the Coast Guard. Now serving in the Reserves, he is older than most of his freshman peers. Struggling to find his place as well, he is definitely interested in dating, but he can't believe how quickly things are developing with Annelise.
Meeting up during orientation, they will grapple with controversies that draw them closer together and create a strong foundation for a healthy long term relationship. Taking place over six years, the story shows the ups and downs of life, love, dating, and the importance of finding the right person.
Though this is a sweet and closed door romance, there are frank discussions of sexuality.
