Rainbow Falls...where life is filled with vivid color. Olive Green's world has turned upside down. The future she thought she was building is gone. Now she's an unemployed CPA forced to move back home and sleep on an air mattress at her sister's while picking up temp work to survive. Only, this latest temp job requires an NDA before she even goes to the interview. And the man who opens the door? Yeah, he's not at all what she expected. Damien Rhoades had it all - or so he thought. His voice was on every country music station, and he had the bank account to prove it. When reality crashed in on him, though, he ran from the bright lights of fame and from the God he'd once promised to serve. Isolation has become his self-inflicted punishment, his way of atoning for past sins too numerous to count and too dark to face. Then Olive bursts into his life driving her muscle car and lighting up his home with laughter. Can a woman who feels adrift in her life be a guiding light? Will a man barricaded behind walls fortified with shame be strong enough to let the light in? Each book in the Rainbow Falls series is a complete romance that can be enjoyed on its own. Due to the nature of this close-knit community, though, it may be best to read the books in order.

"A beautiful collection of authentic Dzogchen poetry and pith instructions" Jamyang Tenphel, author of The Awakening Heart This collection of Buddhist poetry touches on themes central to Buddhism: the benefits of meditation, the significance of the present moment, impermanence, devotion, compassionate ethics, and the true nature of the mind. It explores these themes with keen insight, but also with humour and joy. Each poem was written at dawn immediately after a meditation or practice session. Indeed the poems have the freshness and clarity of a clear dawn sky. The book provides a poetic complement to the many published works on meditation and mindfulness and reflects the lived experience of a committed Buddhist practitioner. Not only that, these poems embody the heart of the Buddha Dharma in ways that can't be achieved by other kinds of writing. Furthermore, each poem is intended to be used as a touchstone for daily contemplation. The book finishes with a guided meditation designed to bring recognition of the true nature of mind, the goal of all practice-oriented Buddhist lineages. Though the author practices within the Tibetan tradition, the book can be appreciated by Buddhists of any tradition and indeed by anyone interested in meditation or in discovering the true nature of reality and themselves through the medium of poetry.

Have you ever experienced that moment when there seemed to be no answer to a life situation? Maybe you were oscillating between two or possibly three outcomes? To have no response or direction in this life is not ideal. Monumental moments are the parts of everyday life that give us a chance to let God offer His solution for our day-to-day world. He wants to walk with us, plan with us, and guide us into His known, which might be our unknown. God has a design on our life and wants to do the "life thing" with us. He doesn't want to be someone we call at the last minute. Consider a new choice. It is essential to find God at the beginning of our need and not at the end. God always delivered everyone who needed help and addressed Him for that. He does the same today. This book offers examples of people who called on Him for help and others who went alone, considering the outcome of those decisions. It will also give life-altering suggestions on operating in this world. It is a chance to let His answers be our solution.
