Women of Worthy: Boxed Set 2

Book 4: Sophia's PIlot Widow and single mother Sophia Nelson is about to be a young empty nester. She struggles with everything from starting her own business and training to run the Pumpkin Spice Marathon, to a busybody former Navy officer cousin who is overprotective and too involved in her life. When she has unwanted advances from a local high school coach, her cousin decides to appoint another former Navy man to train with her and protect her from the coach. Sophia needs another protector like she needs a hole in her head, but can it be all bad when Ben Garrison is not only good to look at, but a really decent man? Ben Garrison just wants to start his helicopter courier service and fly, fly, fly. But an old Navy buddy needs a favor, and Ben wants to work at something until he can get his business off the ground. And what could be worse than running the track with a beautiful widow? Nothing, except that her over-protective teenage daughters think he's a player, and he's hard-pressed to get anything else off the ground with her, especially when her real problem is that she can't tolerate the one thing he truly loves—flying. Can Ben and Sophia find strength in their common faith bond and overcome past hurt to find happiness? Or are they permanently grounded in her fear and his nagging doubts? Book 5: Amy's Christmas Wish Amy Dillon's teenage crush on Zeke Parker never panned out. He went to the military with her older brother, but now Zeke is back. After years of struggling, Amy's Bed & Breakfast is finally profitable. But now she has a bigger problem. A new boutique hotel may open in the small town of Worthy, Ohio and disrupt her plans to expand her business. Zeke Parker is medically discharged for his military-related hearing deficit. When he returns to his hometown, he can't bring himself to visit his childhood friend––and crush––Amy Dillon. When a fire forces him out of his apartment, he bunks with her little brother in the downstairs apartment of the carriage house where they all grew up. Amy is happy to have Zeke back in her life, but something is amiss, and hearing issues are the least of Zeke's worries. Will he ever be able to tell Amy the truth about her brother's death? Book #6: Lily's Mechanic When Carson Brown arrives in the town he remembers as the place of sweet summer childhood fun, he finds the inheritance his uncle left him comes with conditions that could prove financially disastrous for him. When his high school sweetheart turns up right next door, he tries to convince himself she is an additional headache he doesn't need. Lilly Bennett wants her and her two young sons to escape the stigma of her life in Austin, Texas, after her dead husband's trail of lies. She returns to Worthy, Ohio, to find the family farm in financial trouble and her father's health in decline. When Carson Brown, the man who left her behind a dozen years ago shows up on her doorstep, she's catapulted back to a painful time. With so much betrayal in their past, can Carson and Lily have the do-over they dare to hope for, and become a happy couple again?
