There are a few things Jeremy Marsh was sure he'd never do: he'd never leave New York City; never give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage; and, most of all, never become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of this young couple's marriage.

| my heart will find you nicholas sparks: Show Them You're Good Jeff Hobbs, 2020-08-18 The acclaimed, award-winning author of The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace presents a “carefully observed journalistic account [that] widens our view of the modern ‘immigrant experience’” (The New York Times Book Review) as he closely follows four Los Angeles high school boys as they apply to college. Four teenage boys are high school seniors at two very different schools within the city of Los Angeles, the second largest school district in the nation with nearly 700,000 students. In this “exceptional work of investigative journalism…laced with compassion, insight, and humor” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) Jeff Hobbs stunningly captures the challenges and triumphs of being a young person confronting the future—both their own and the cultures in which they live—in contemporary America. Blending complex social issues with each individual experience, Hobbs takes us deep inside these boys’ worlds. The foursome includes Carlos, the younger son of undocumented delivery workers, who aims to follow in his older brother’s footsteps and attend an Ivy League college; Tio harbors serious ambitions to become an engineer despite a father who doesn’t believe in him; Jon, devoted member of the academic decathalon team, struggles to put distance between himself and his mother, who is suffocating him with her own expectations; and Owen, raised in a wealthy family, can’t get serious about academics but knows he must. Including portraits of secondary characters—friends, peers, parents, teachers, and girlfriends—this “uniquely illuminating” (Booklist) masterwork of immersive journalism is destined to ignite conversations about class, race, expectations, cultural divides, and even the concept of fate. Hobbs’s portrayal of these young men is not only revelatory and relevant, but also moving, eloquent, and indelibly powerful. |

But there is one leap of faith Taylor can't bring himself to make: he can't fall in love. For all his adult years, Taylor has sought out women who need to be rescued, women he leaves as soon as their crisis is over and the relationship starts to become truly intimate. When a raging storm hits his small Southern town, single mother Denise Holton's car skids off the road. The young mom is with her four-year-old son Kyle, a boy with severe learning disabilities and for whom she has sacrificed everything. Taylor McAden finds her unconscious and bleeding, but does not find Kyle. When Denise wakes, the chilling truth becomes clear to both of them. Kyle is gone. During the search for Kyle, a connection between Taylor and Denise takes root. But Taylor doesn't know that this rescue will be different from all the others. |

| my heart will find you nicholas sparks: HOW I FOUND MY GUIDING LIGHT Larissa B, 2025-03-03 My Guiding Light is an inspirational, nonfiction memoir that provides an overview of how an ambitious yet soft-spoken, insecure, and even troublesome suburban chick discovered the concealed light inside her soul. This woman believes there's always a radiant light glowing at the end of a long, dark tunnel. After all these years, she's finally grasped the concept that dark and light circumstances in her life cannot coexist. Can they? Well, this is the major theme of her testimony here for you, friends. She believes there are two sides to every person--two distinct personalities yet to be exposed that are often left unresolved or misunderstood. This is not an intention to lecture or preach at any person or to force any crazy religious doctrine into your psyche. Rather, it's an inspirational summary of one young woman's life experiences and how Christ is now the positive motivating force within her life today, inspiring others to do the same. Despite her conservative, wholesome, often sheltered, and awkward childhood, she later experienced a drama-filled and often unfair adolescence, then on to an uncertain, exhilarating, and awkward young adulthood. This woman had her deepest doubts about herself, her life, and, most relevantly, her faith in Christ, derived at first from her shaken walk with God despite her genuine and easygoing demeanor. There was a time in her midtwenties when she almost slipped so far into the darker side of life that she might have been headed for a mental breakdown. Then, one random night, she had a fascinating dream where, in her unique knowledge, she saw a miraculous sign from God consisting of large birds and a radiant light--her true light. Through that supernatural experience, she now knew of her genuine hope and purpose for living: Christ, who was showing her a way out of the darkness into eternal hope. Now she knows she has a destiny, regardless of the indifference and controversy constantly plaguing her reality, including her insecurities and self-doubt. After a few years, despite her promising future ahead, comes an underlying question that still seems to haunt her today: Is her newfound admiration from social media friends and the good life on her terms today the key to true fulfillment, especially when the darker side of her persona (from her past) still seems to come back to haunt her daily, or is real fulfillment found only in her newfound faith in the Lord Jesus? Furthermore, she must now decide in her mind to either forgive, forget, kick the dark side to the curb, and finally move on to restore her newfound faith and her radiant future or continue to dance with the demons of her past that still haunt her and continue to receive the outward, societal attention she has so long craved before. Despite her efforts, the ongoing, conflicting question remains: Will it ever be understood or make sense? Can the light and dark sides of someone's soul coexist with each other? Will the conflicting questions inside her soul--those of who she is and who she's supposed to be--ever be resolved? Well, hopefully, only a short amount of quality and well-spent time reading her testimony will reveal the true answers. Friends, this is an overall inspirational query based on factual life events about how a young woman can use her life circumstances to inspire the younger and older generations to never give up on their life, hope, purpose, and their true guiding light. |
