For Jenny it was clear that the deep bond to her grandmother could not only be explained by the same first name. There was more. Jenny was fascinated by the willpower and courage of her grandmother. Grandmother Jennifer had dared to resist old traditions. She was a strong woman and a role model for Jenny. Grandmother Jennifer returned home from an extended stay in London. She was very happy to see her best friend again. But what suddenly happened remains a mystery to Jenny. Although her grandmother had told Jenny a lot about her life, there is a time that is completely shrouded in darkness. Will Jenny be able to bring light into this darkness? "Jennifer, no!" Without thinking, Sam jumped in after Jennifer. He had to rescue her from those raging waves. That thought gave him bear strength. Again and again he came struggling for breath, over water, only to dive right back down again. At last he saw her lying lifeless in the shallow water not far from the shore and being washed over and over again by the waves. "Jennifer!" An emotional roller coaster you don't want to get off.

Have you ever seen a movie or a TV drama that takes place in a lush Italian villa (or French chateau, Spanish castle or English manor house) and found yourself daydreaming of what it might be like to experience that lifestyle? Janice Davis, author of the acclaimed guide to taking a one-on-one trip with a child, A Kid, A Grown Up & A Travel Bug, now turns her focus from traveling with children to traveling with a large group of friends or family - in style and economically Based on many years of experience renting luxurious and often historic European homes with groups of up to to twenty-seven friends, Davis provides readers with a template for successful villa adventures. Every aspect of organizing such a holiday is covered, from how to locate your villa to what factors you'll need to weigh when making your selection, to dealing with pricing and figuring out who gets which room. Also included are travel basics (such as how to find the best air fare, how to pack efficiently, and how to beat jet lag) and anecdotes from her own villa experiences. The Travel Bug series, while in some ways sharing the purpose of other travel books in that they convey the sense of wonder and excitement that travel brings, is not so much about the 'where' as about the 'why' and 'how.' The focus is on all there is to be personally gained by travel and how it can enrich you long after your return home, as well as giving practical advice for trips that are worry-free and affordable on nearly any budget. What really makes the Travel Bug series unique among other travel publications, however, is its focus on whom you're traveling with. The books explore how the travel experience can enhance your relationships with those who accompany you, and how those companions can enhance your own experience of the trip. Each book focuses on different arrangements of fellow travelers, from traveling with a child, to traveling with group, to the next book in the series which will spotlight traveling solo. Whichever mode you choose and whomever you choose to accompany you, travel is an exciting, soul-enriching, fun adventure that the Travel Bug series will help you organize and appreciate to the fullest.

"In a time when far too many of us wrestle daily with painful scars from emotional, psychological, and physical hurts of the past, Deb and Janice have written an incredibly important and powerful book that can serve as a key to unlocking the door to peace, hope and true healing for many. Written in a format that is a welcome respite from the typical "quick-fix" books of the day, these two wonderful women grant us the privilege of "listening in" on their deeply personal conversations as they journey into their painful pasts, into the very depths of their hearts, and eventually into a place of hope and healing. We were never meant to shoulder the burdens of past hurts on our own. Face to Face does a marvelous job of helping us see how deeply detrimental trying to do so can be to virtually every aspect of our lives. Ultimately, as Deb and Janice unpack their own incredible stories of abuse, betrayal, guilt, addiction and recovery, you'll be introduced to the practical process of placing these burdens on the shoulders of the One who can truly take them for good - Jesus Christ In a time of great need, Face to Face is a must read. Read it and be changed forever "
