She’s everything he didn’t want…and exactly what he needs

McCarthy Temple, the last unmarried Temple brother, was happy with his safe, predictable world. He had his family, his accounting business and his numbers. He didn’t need love. He already had it all…except an assistant. Jacqueline Aimes was the least likely candidate. She was overqualified, gorgeous and only staying in Kilgore long enough to sell her parents’ land.

But as Jacqueline starts to permeate every aspect of his life, Mac finds it harder and harder to imagine life without her. Jacqueline’s passion is her work for children in international war zones, though, not small-town living. So Mac has to find a Texas-size miracle to get her to stay…

“What are you afraid of, Mac?”

“I’m afraid of you leaving. I’m afraid of you not leaving. I’m afraid of you being bored with me, with Kilgore, with an ordinary life. I’m afraid of the ways I’m changing because of you. Afraid of being happy. Afraid of life’s possibilities. Afraid of bad things happening. I just don’t want any more pain. Not for me, or anyone I love.”

He bent toward her and kissed her gently. She inhaled the scent of leather. Mac moved to lie on his side, sandwiching his long frame between her and the couch. She turned to face him, and they lay like that for a long moment.

But eventually Mac rose from the couch and found his coat on the stand. He covered her with it and tucked it around her.

“Good night, Jacqueline.”

My friend Mae Nunn envisioned the Deep in the Heart series set in her beloved home state of Texas. It has been a privilege to collaborate with her on the third and fourth books in the series, and to tell the stories of the two oldest Temple brothers, Joiner and Mac.

Texas Miracle is the story of the eldest brother, Mac. He’s a guy I can relate to, as I’m the eldest in my family. He loves his brothers and would do anything to protect them. As a numbers person, Mac wants everything to make sense. He’s afraid of loss, afraid of being hurt, afraid to take much risk. Mac is a rock—strong and sturdy. He loves Texas as much as Mae does. But he’s also a little stuck.

Enter Jacqueline Aimes, who is more of a rolling stone. She has no deep connections in Texas. No reason to stay in one place. She goes where her work in social justice takes her. So it’s something of a miracle when she walks through Mac’s door in Kilgore, Texas. But that’s only the first miracle between these two.

One of the most special things about this book for me was drawing on the memory of my nephew Hunter’s birth and what a miraculous time that was for my own family. We learned, as Mac does, that sometimes the most beautiful things in life come out of the scariest, most difficult moments. I hope your heart is warmed as you watch Mac’s family witness their miracle. And I hope you are inspired as the miracle of true love unfolds under the Texas sky.

Thanks so much for reading! I’d love to know your thoughts by email, gfaulkenberry@hotmail.com, or on Facebook at Gwendolann Adell Ford Faulkenberry.

A Texas-sized hug,

Gwen Ford Faulkenberry
