Captured in Frame (Bite of Betrayal Book 1)
Laura Thomas

In an idyllic village nestled in the English countryside, photographer Georgia Brooks is desperate to begin a new chapter in her life. Bramble Cottage was supposed to give her space to heal and hope again after suffering betrayal and rejection by the only man she ever loved. This was Georgia’s chance to rekindle her faith and reconnect with her sisters in a place that held sweet childhood memories—not expose herself to the ugly underbelly of the art world and put her family in danger.

Local pediatric surgeon, Doctor William Hughes, is captivated by the Canadian beauty with a camera over one shoulder and the weight of the world on the other. After suffering his own tragic loss and balancing a demanding career with raising a toddler, he recognizes the heaviness of grief . . . and the burden of guilt.

When Georgia discovers she could be in possession of incriminating evidence to frame a criminal ring, she needs to trust someone. She chooses Will. Postcards, photographs, paintings—something about Bramble Cottage is worth killing for. Can Georgia uncover the truth in time?

Shaped by God’s Promises: Lessons from Sarah on Fear and Faith
Shannon Popkin

“She considered him faithful who had made the promise.” Hebrews 11:11 NIV

Sarah was filled with doubts, worries, and fears about her future. God had promised her a son, yet she remained childless. Faced with the chaos of life, Sarah reached for manipulation and control. Instead of resting in and trusting God’s promises, she took matters into her own hands-like many of us are tempted to do.

In our high-stress, high-anxiety culture, there’s much to relate to in Sarah’s tumultuous world. Join Shannon Popkin in this 6-week Bible study on Sarah’s life-and her faith. By digging into Scripture 5 days a week, you’ll see how God was with Sarah and faithfully for her, even when she couldn’t see it. Discover how her life-and yours too-was ultimately shaped not by her hardships or heartaches but by the reliable promises of God.
