Title: An Anchor on Her Heart
Series: Mended Hearts #1
Author: Patricia Lee
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Release Date: August 1, 2017
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
McKenna Nichols, a young wife abandoned by her husband in favor of his work, is left alone to raise their autistic child. She promised to love him until death parted them. But when circumstances drive a wedge into their marriage and Dane chooses to escape what life has dealt them, how long can she be strong? Can she remain faithful to her marriage vows when tempted by the friendship of an unlikely stranger?
Rudy Taylor, who senses McKenna's loneliness and understands the difficulty of raising her daughter, struggles to keep his concern for the young woman biblical. Will McKenna’s faith in God and Rudy’s commitment to his Lord be enough to keep their relationship simple until McKenna's husband one day returns?
As teenage sweethearts, she and Dane used to race down this street toward the ocean. She’d hold
his hand at the top of the berm separating the beach from the town, letting the turbulent air tangle
her hair around her
face and neck. Dane would lead her to the sand, and they’d sit, his fingers
straightening the unruly locks, his kisses tickling her ears. Nothing separated them, all of life
waiting like a well written fairytale.
Until Sydney changed the story for Dane.

Title: Love Calls Her Home
Series: Mended Hearts #2
Author: Patricia Lee
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Release Date: March 1, 2018
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Lissa Frye returns home from the Navy hoping to find a different future—one which includes a husband, marriage, and a family, until news from her sister impacts Lissa’s personal life and derails her plans.
Kurt McKintrick, having lost his best friend to an IED in Afghanistan, has returned to help the man's mother run a horse rescue ranch. Images of war plague him, and thoughts of anyone else he might love falling victim to an untimely end, distance him from the person most likely to help.
Eleven-year-old Jayden Clarke seeks to fill the ache in his heart from his father’s death two years before. But his life is turned upside down when the rancher who befriended him is found dead, the horses neglected, and the dog missing. When authorities arrive to investigate, Lissa and Kurt, estranged after a former relationship, are forced to meet again. Lissa must confront images from her past and Kurt struggles to live with his present truth.
Will Jayden be the catalyst that draws Lissa and Kurt back together for a happily ever after?
Lissa couldn’t imagine city boy Kurt working at a horse rescue facility mucking stalls and
stacking hay. His experience with farm animals could be bundled in a shell casing. But maybe
he’d needed a change from military life in the sandbox of Afghanistan as much
as she’d needed solid ground under her feet after the Navy.
What would Kurt think when he discovered she’d sent him a dirty little filly? Or when she stood
waiting by the barn as he drove up? If there was a more original way to get reacquainted, she
didn’t know what it might be. She couldn’t wait for Tuesday.

Monty thought he might be ill, the wave of nausea coursing through his frame threatening to knock
him to his knees. Mason! Mason gone. If he’d lost his son, after losing his wife earlier last spring,
he’d head out to sea and not look back. Heartache had its limits, and he had nearly reached the
breaking point. The little boy in his arms proved he’d not yet arrived there.
His knees wobbled him, the strong, capable NOAA corps scientist who combed the ocean looking for clues to its mysteries. He could walk the walk, and talk the talk, and wear the smart, dress whites any other day of the week, but give him one little seven year old boy missing in a snowstorm, and he turned to jelly. Mason and Mia were all he had left of Marissa, a gift to him from across the chasm between heaven and earth.
