Rising Shadows by Ashley Townsend (ebook, 1 copy)
Sarah Matthews didn’t think a little taste of adventure this summer was too much to ask. But when she finds herself transported to the twelfth century, she learns she must be careful what she wishes for.
After Sarah’s closest companion—and her ticket home—is arrested on charges of witchcraft, Sarah finds herself trapped in this dangerous land and alone in her knowledge of a dangerous conspiracy. Knowing that she has no chance of stopping the treachery and saving her friend on her own, Sarah seeks help from the Shadow, a masked hero who has already saved her life once. As they work together to unravel the truth before it’s too late, Sarah realizes that it isn’t the Shadow who she’s come to rely on, but Will, a handsome and intriguing blacksmith who’s plagued by the secrets and pains of his past. Can Sarah help Will discover that God’s forgiveness and mercy are never too far from reach?

I already have several devotionals I love to read. I happen to have one specific devotional that I received 22 years ago, just after I found my Jesus. It was a gift from my sister, Lori, living in Australia ,titled “GOD CALLING”.This was my very first devotional book. It is a very small book I can throw in my purse.
However, if I were to win this particular devotional book “JESUS CALLING “,I wouldn’t keep it for myself, I would give it to my daughter and her very soon to be husband as wedding gift. My daughter, Alexandra ,is 23 yard old and has been walking with her Jesus since she was 17 years old. Her fiancé, Jon, who is 25 years old, has not found his Jesus, yet. However they are praying together everyday and watching wonderful evangelical preachers,and teachers on line, in their spare time.
They are getting married in about four weeks ,after knowing eachother since high school. But have been living together for the last two years.
We, their parents, all six of us, are so happy and excited about this union. But not nearly as happy as our most precious Heavenly Father God.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to share this blessed testimony.
