Julia's Quest
Julia Mason has searched for her birth parents since she was a teenager. Years later, lies, dreams, confrontations, and a confession from her adoptive mother lead Julia down a troubling path to find answers to the questions that have plagued her most of her life.
The trail will lead her deep into the mountains of North Carolina…into the heart of a strong family, burdened with a dark and painful secret.
Light at Summer's End
It’s a hot Georgia afternoon, and Melissa has been dumped at a stranger’s house for the entire summer...just because she’s in the way at home. Worse, Miss Vellie, the owner of the farm, lives alone. Melissa is sure she’ll be bored to death. Then Melissa discovers that Miss Vellie didn’t even know she was coming!
Melissa cries herself to sleep the first night...and the next....and the next. Is Melissa just homesick, or is there something deeper going on? What on earth can an angry fourteen-year-old and a retired English teacher have in common?

“Light at Summer’s End is dedicated to all the children who grieve the loss of their siblings because of abortion,” Kim says. “The story explores the power each of us has to face painful things in our lives. Yet, God never leaves us alone in our struggles, but provides the right people at the right time to enrich us and enable us to heal.”
