The Flanagans
7 primary works
Book 1
Nolie Lang learned at an early age that animals wouldn' t let her down like people did. Her farm was a haven for abandoned animals– and a source of hope for the disabled. But now, to get a crucial grant, Nolie had to work with the most stubborn man she' d ever met, injured firefighter Gabriel Flanagan.
Though Gabe clearly didn' t want to depend on anyone, including God, he and Nolie became reluctant partners. And all too soon the courage she witnessed in his actions disarmed her. But his injury had convinced Gabe he had nothing to offer Nolie. Could God now make Gabe see he' d always be a hero in her heart?
Book 2
Executive assistant Claire Delany's experience with teens?
Only when she'd been one. Yet somehow she was teaching a rowdy group of them how to apply for jobs. It wasn't her idea of a good time, but in exchange Pastor Brendan Flanagan would help her plan the wedding of her best friend and Brendan's cousin. Claire had confused feelings about the handsome, opinionated Pastor Flanagan.
She didn't want a family, or even religion. So why was she pouring out long-held-in feelings to Brendan? And why was he gaining a stronghold on her heart?
Book 3
Life was much safer at a remove, or at least so Julie Alexander thought.
Her photojournalist job allowed her to view life through her camera lens, a job that would help her learn if a man she'd never met was a good father to her estranged late half-sister's child.
But Julie's efforts to be a detached observer were challenged by firefighter Seth Flanagan and his warm-hearted family, and her detachment was completely shattered by her unexpected love for three-year-old Davy.
Yet Julie wasn't the only one facing issues; the still-grieving Seth made it clear that love didn't feature in his future plans. Could God's love build a bridge to connect the two?
Book 4
Penniless widow Laura McKay was determined to succeed on her own, but when an arsonist threatened her deaf daughter's safety, she was compelled to rely on firefighter Ryan Flanagan, the high school football hero who'd never noticed her as a shy underclassman.
Physically fearless and an expert at avoiding romantic commitment, Ryan had nearly become his own worst enemy. But in the flames there's only one enemy: time, which just might be running out for Laura, unless Ryan's courage...and love...can withstand the test of fire.
Book 5
Firefighter paramedic Terry Flanagan saw her clinic for migrant farm workers as the perfect way to make a difference.
But when Dr. Jacob Landsdowne was assigned to oversee her project, she wondered if her dreams would go up in smoke. Two years ago a tragedy had touched both their lives and almost destroyed Jacob's career. Now he was intent on rebuilding his reputation, and Terry's clinic was an unwanted distraction.
Yet, with the well-being of women and children hanging in the balance, maybe it was time Jacob put aside his trust in himself...and turn to God.
Book 6
A search for her roots brought midwife Fiona Flanagan to Pennsylvania Dutch country–and made her wonder whether she should turn back.
The area's mixture of Amish and English culture confused her, and her first encounter with local police chief Ted Rittenhouse didn't help. He'd thought she was breaking into her own office!
Despite the misunderstanding, Fiona could see that Ted's tough-as-nails exterior hid a kind soul–one caught between two worlds, seeking a place to belong. She felt the same, but trusting him with her heart would require the biggest step of faith she had ever taken.
Book 7
Wounded army officer Luke Marino was sent home, his career, his spirit shattered. Now he wanted only to be left alone, refusing even the physical therapy he needed.
But Mary Kate Flanagan Donnelly, a widow with two children to raise on her own, needed Luke's case to prove herself as a capable therapist. Despite the revival of feelings she thought dormant since their high school romance, she was determined to help the stubborn hero and keep matters strictly business….
