The Vow by Kim Carpenter,Krickitt Carpenter,Dana Wilkerson Pdf

Life as Kim and Krickitt Carpenter knew it was shattered beyond recognition on November 24, 1993. Two months after their marriage, a devastating car wreck left Krickitt with a massive head injury and in a coma for weeks. When she finally awoke, she had no idea who Kim was. With no recollection of their relationship and while Krickitt experienced personality changes common to those who suffer head injuries, Kim realized the woman he had married essentially died in the accident. And yet, against all odds, but through the common faith in Christ that sustained them, Kim and Krickitt fell in love all over again. Even though Kim stood by Krickitt through the darkest times a husband can ever imagine, he insists, “I’m no hero. I made a vow.” Now available in trade paper with a new chapter and photo insert, The Vow is the true story that inspired the major motion picture of the same name starring Rachel McAdams (The Notebook), Channing Tatum (Dear John), Sam Neill (Jurassic Park), and Academy Award winner Jessica Lange.

Veil and Vow by Aneeka Ayanna Henderson Pdf

In Veil and Vow, Aneeka Ayanna Henderson places familiar, often politicized questions about the crisis of African American marriage in conversation with a rich cultural archive that includes fiction by Terry McMillan and Sister Souljah, music by Anita Baker, and films such as The Best Man. Seeking to move beyond simple assessments of marriage as "good" or "bad" for African Americans, Henderson critically examines popular and influential late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century texts alongside legislation such as the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act and the Welfare Reform Act, which masked true sources of inequality with crisis-laden myths about African American family formation. Using an interdisciplinary approach to highlight the influence of law, politics, and culture on marriage representations and practices, Henderson reveals how their kinship veils and unveils the fiction in political policy as well as the complicated political stakes of fictional and cultural texts. Providing a new opportunity to grapple with old questions, including who can be a citizen, a "wife," and "marriageable," Veil and Vow makes clear just how deeply marriage still matters in African American culture.

Susannah Abbot Baylor reluctantly hires Henry Buckmeyer to help her along the Jefferson Trace, the hard stretch of land between her Texas farm and the cotton market, where she is determined to get a fair price for her crop.

Soon they are entwined in a romantic relationship that only gets more complicated when Susannah learns that Henry doesn’t know God the way she does. Dangers arise on the road—but none as difficult as the trial her heart is going through. Will Susannah and Henry’s love overcome their differences? And will she get her crop safely to the cotton market with enough money to save the farm?

A Knight's Vow by Lynn Kurland,Patricia Potter,Deborah Simmons,Glynnis Campbell Pdf

Fantasies are made of knights in shining armor. Men whose ferocity in battle was tempered by a code of chivalry…whose passions brought them to their knees before the women they desired…whose loyalty and honor never wavered—and whose vows were never broken. These are the men of our dreams—and now you can find them in four breathtaking Medieval tales by today’s most acclaimed writers of historical romance... In Lynn Kurland's "The Traveller," a bedraggled knight makes a solemn vow to protect, defend, and rescue any and all maidens in distress—even those from Manhattan. A vow to marry for love transforms a marquis into a minstrel who must sing for his supper—and for a woman whose heart is true in Patricia Potter's "The Minstrel." In Deborah Simmons' "The Bachelor Knight," a forgotten vow comes back to haunt the greatest knight in all the land, when a fair maiden asks for his hand in marriage. Trapped underground with his unwilling betrothed, a determined knight vows to free her—body and soul in Glynnis Campbell's "The Siege."

WALL MEN: Book Three, a Vow Kept by Mimi Jean Pamfiloff Pdf

From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes the third book of the Wall Men Trilogy, a suspenseful Dark Fantasy filled with monsters, vampires, giants, and love. HER PLAN IS SIMPLE: FIGHT LIKE HELL! I never asked for any of this. Not to be taken to a strange, violent land. Not to be married off to a giant or get stuck between warring kingdoms filled with ravenous monsters. Nor did I ask to be turned into a vampire and placed on the throne. Ruler of them all. This is crazy! But now that I see what these creatures have in store for my world, I have to step up, even if it terrifies me. Because no one is coming to save my little town back home or the rest of the world I love despite its flaws. I’m the cavalry. Lucky me, I have a plan. Unlucky me, I just discovered that my fifty-foot-tall warlord husband might be the key to carrying it out. If only I could trust him. But I can’t. And if only I weren’t in love with the ghost of his dead brother. But I am. And if only I knew how this is going to end. I don’t. But today, I fight. Today, I risk it all for what I love.
