    In the wake of the Civil War, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd travels through northern Texas, giving live readings from newspapers to paying audiences hungry for news of the world. An elderly widower who has lived through three wars and fought in two of them, the captain enjoys his rootless, solitary existence.

    In Wichita Falls, he is offered a $50 gold piece to deliver a young orphan to her relatives in San Antonio. Four years earlier, a band of Kiowa raiders killed Johanna’s parents and sister; sparing the little girl, they raised her as one of their own. Recently rescued by the U.S. army, the ten-year-old has once again been torn away from the only home she knows.

    Their 400-mile journey south through unsettled territory and unforgiving terrain proves difficult and at times dangerous. Johanna has forgotten the English language, tries to escape at every opportunity and refuses to act “civilized.” Yet as the miles pass, the two lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other, forming a bond that marks the difference between life and death in this treacherous land.

    Arriving in San Antonio, the reunion is neither happy nor welcome. The captain must hand Johanna over to an aunt and uncle she does not remember—strangers who regard her as an unwanted burden. A respectable man, Captain Kidd is faced with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become—in the eyes of the law—a kidnapper himself.

    A Family by ChristmasA Family by Christmas by Viv Royce

    Chocolatier Emma Miller didn’t expect her bonbon business in the charming town of Wood Creek to lead to love—but Christmas has a way of working miracles.

    When a young girl visits Emma’s shop with an unusual request—chocolates to help her widowed dad fall in love with her teacher—Emma is intrigued. What she doesn’t anticipate is meeting Casey’s father, Grant, a dashing pilot whose charm leaves her breathless. But Emma knows better than to trust too quickly. Her years in foster care taught her one painful truth: people always leave.

    Grant Galloway is moved by his daughter’s thoughtful gift and curious about the chocolatier behind it. The moment he steps into Emma’s shop, he’s captivated—not just by her world-class chocolates but by the woman herself. Yet, after losing his wife, Grant has kept his heart guarded, and he plans to leave town after the holidays.

    With a sprinkle of holiday magic, Emma and Grant may find that love has a way of changing even the best-laid plans.

    The chilling story of an abduction, a harrowing escape, and the dark secrets that pull two survivors back to the scene of the crime years later.

    During senior-year spring break, Noelle Meyer and Evan Sinclair are kidnapped. They don’t know why they were chosen—only that their tragic pasts are linked. Years ago, Evan’s father got away with killing Noelle’s mother, shattering her family when the death was ruled an accident.

    Instead of being enemies, the teens form an unlikely alliance against their abductors, enduring one horrifying trial after another before making a daring escape. But survival comes at a price.

    Now, years later, Evan is a private investigator who uncovers evidence suggesting their nightmare never truly ended. He reaches out to Noelle, and together they delve into the truth—a trail that leads to a man known only as the Collector. To stop the crimes and bring justice, they must unmask this shadowy figure, the keeper of secrets that could destroy their captors once and for all.
