(2015)(A book in the Sacred Bond series)
An omnibus of novels by Lee Tobin McClain
Heartwarming inspirational romance celebrating heroic men with strong values and protective instincts. The Sacred Bond series spotlights four former delinquents who grow up to become heroes due to a bond they made as teenagers.
A Christmas Bond
Romance between enemies . . .
In this Christian romance, war hero John Moretti sees the delinquent boys he mentors as the sons he never had, and he wants to give them every opportunity to reform. Crime victim Annie Bauer views them as dangerous threats to her elderly grandma, who lives next door to the boys' residential school.
When the Baby Jesus is stolen from Grandma's yard nativity scene, the boys' potential involvement may send them straight to hard-core juvie, and break the fragile connection that's building between Annie and John. Until the so-called delinquents join together to make a sacred bond...
His Baby Bond
Battle for a Baby . . .
In this Christian romance novel, poor-but-proud Kendra Forrester doesn't need an arrogant millionaire to tell her how to raise her sister's baby. But when handsome Zeke King arrives at her Colorado cabin demanding custody of his brother's child, strategy dictates that she let him stick around.
Battling mountain weather and the baby's illness brings these two opposites together, but their own insecurities, their dead siblings' secrets, and a jealous former boyfriend threaten their tentative bond.
Only the Lord and the Sacred Bond Brotherhood can help Kendra and Zeke form a family for their baby.
The Bride's Broken Bond
A Runaway Bride . . .
As the wedding music starts playing, poor little rich girl Hope DeMille learns that her husband-to-be loves someone else, but her domineering, high-society father won't let her back out of the expensive wedding he's funded. Enter Rock Anderson, a former inner-city kid mentored by Hope's parents, who's always wanted Hope.
After helping Hope escape, Rock gets her a job at his urban mission and helps her find meaning in her life. But when Hope's powerful father seeks revenge and one of the inner-city kids goes missing, it'll take the best efforts of the Sacred Bond brotherhood to help this opposite-sides-of-the-tracks couple overcome their differences and commit to love.
Her Reunion Bond
The single dad blues . . .
Ever since she lost her unborn child and the use of her leg in an accident, Wendy Smith has given up on romance and focused on kids - her own foster kids, and those she teaches.
Daniel Masterson, Wendy's high school boyfriend, has been earning money hand-over-fist in the entertainment industry, but his wife's death showed him how shallow his life is - especially now that he's raising his daughter alone. With the encouragement of his Sacred Bond brothers, Daniel returns to Pittsburgh to do a fund-raising campaign for Wendy's school, and he rents a house adjacent to Wendy's.
Now the two families are forced to spend time together, and Wendy and Daniel's attraction reignites. The only problem is that Wendy's never told him the truth about the baby she lost...
The Doctor's Bond
Bad Boone McDermitt is back in Pleasant Haven, Florida to help his troubled nephews ... not to romance the preacher's daughter! But the handsome doctor sees a kindred spirit in restless, talented Abby Smith, and he's drawn to her spirituality as much as to her beauty.
The problem is, Boone doesn't think he's good enough for Abby, and a few small-minded church people agree. As for Abby, she must choose between a dutiful life with the clean-cut minister dear old dad's chosen for her and the dangerous, passionate freedom Boone represents. It'll take a lot of prayer and an assist from the Sacred Bond brothers to teach Boone and Abby that sometimes, the biggest risk is in not following your heart.
