Christina lauren something wilder5/22/2023 Frankly, Lily would like to take him out into the wilderness and leave him there. It pays the bills but doesn’t leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails. But Lily is resourceful, and now uses Duke’s coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession…or much money in the bank. The “reigning romance queens” ( PopSugar) and New York Times bestselling authors of The Soulmate Equation and The Unhoneymooners present a charming and laugh-out-loud funny novel filled with adventure, treasure, and, of course, love.

Easter Blessings by Gail Gaymer Martin5/22/2023 Our attitudes, values and beliefs come from who we are, our past experiences, family, friends, lifestyle, education, and values.
