Book Description
Eversleigh Manor provides the perfect location for hit new television show, Lady Jane Investigates. But when the film crew descends en masse, no one could have predicted that romance would be brewing before the clapperboard had snapped its last. Least of all Guy Portias, heir to the manor and favourite beau of leading lady, Richenda Fox. And Guy's rash proposal of marriage in the drunken wake of the after-show party is only the first of his worries. After all, his mother has her heart set on running Country House Weekends for the discerning holidaymaker and her new employee, Honor, has a talent for mass catering . . . and for making Guy feel a little warm under the collar. But Honor is preoccupied with her own problems - a fickle ex-boyfriend is hovering in the wings and her best friend, Henty, seems inordinately distracted by her smouldering new groom, Travis. Throw in a long-lost mother, a philandering husband and a floozy of a florist and watch the residents of Eversleigh village work themselves into a lather of epic proportions.

Book Description
Welcome to Eversleigh—a small English village being invaded by celebrity, sex, and scandal! Guy Portias, heir to Eversleigh Manor, has woken up with two problems: he has a wicked hangover, and he seems to have gotten himself engaged. His new fiancée, Richenda Fox, is the gorgeous star of the hottest new TV series in England, but is the enigmatic beauty the right woman for him? To complicate matters, Eversleigh is badly in need of repairs, and the family fortune has run a bit dry. When Guy reluctantly agrees to let his mother run “Country House Weekends” at the manor, they hire Honor McLean, a bewitching single mother, to cater and help them deal with the chaos. Warm and down to earth, Honor is nothing like Guy’s cool, career-obsessed fiancée. If Honor’s wit and charm have the same effect on others that they seem to have on Guy, she could end up saving Eversleigh on her own—and stealing Guy’s heart in the process. With a cast of characters you’ll love (and a few you’ll love to hate), An Eligible Bachelor is a charming, sexy, and compulsively readable romp through the English countryside. Also available as an eBook From the Trade Paperback edition.

Book Description
We're obsessed with dating. And it's ruining our lives. Rather than leading the way and creating a new and better culture, Christians often misguidedly assume a reactionary posture to cultural norms, then slap "Christian" on things as an adjective and call it a worldview. This collision between worldly ideas and Christian ideals has created a strange and confusing culture of relationships, friendships, and dating in our communities. Is it any wonder why our student ministries and adult groups struggle with a true sense of community, and single men and women are the most likely to leave their church? A book for everyone from teens to elders, The Most Eligible Christian exposes the roots of this disconnect and calls the church to the often missing theology of relationships we were intended to receive and the world was meant to see, guiding us away from a dating obsession and into the richness of kingdom relationships. Brian Kammerzelt is an Associate Professor and Director of the Communications Program at the Moody Bible Institute in downtown Chicago, where he specializes in the theology of communications & culture.
