He can't wait for a lovely, lazy beach honeymoon with His Holy Hotness to continue Hugo's education in the bedroom. Surely this third wedding date will be the charm and won't get cancelled, will it? After all, Hugo's followed his calling almost to the end of his path to ordination. Nothing should keep him from gaining his own parish with Charles as his husband.

My mind went into an entirely new level of functioning with what I discovered from the Great Within. We need to be confident in these conversations with Christians, because we have the high ground. Psychology, history, and research are on the side of Truth and not Christianity.

Austin Russell doesn't belong at a small school like Glynn Harber. He's meant to be a highflyer in finance, not a book-keeping bursar. Now there's only one renovation project left to budget, it's time he toughened his soft heart and got back to climbing the corporate ladder. The truth is he'd rather climb Maisie Dymond's father.

Plenty of other, deadlier things would be happy to reach out and touch someone anywhere, be it the roof of a skyscraper or a subway tunnel deep underground.

Deliberately imposed multiple handicaps make any attempts at camouflage meaningless.
