Год издания: 0000
Invited celebrates how God met the author during a dark time in her life when she wondered where he was and surprised her with the gift of a relationship with an aunt not previously known by her. The relationship with her aunt, who serves as a spiritual director, helped usher Diane into a new chapter of her walk with God, where she began living more and more in the reality of God with and within her. She shares honest glimpses of her life, what she is noticing about herself and God, as well as rich insights and wisdom–on topics like finding Jesus in the ordinary, entrusting others to God, forgiveness–offered over the years from her spiritual director/aunt during their sessions. As you chew on Aunt Barb's insights and as you see Diane embracing and celebrating what God has done and is doing, freeing her to be who she was made to be and seeking to live her life in response to the love of God, you will want to be on the lookout for God's invitations to you.

A Philadelphia mansion plays host to uninvited death….1777: In the throes of the Revolutionary War, Landon Mansion is commandeered by British Lord «Butcher» Bedford. He stabs Lucy Tarleton—who spurned his king and his love—leaving her to die in her father's arms. Now: After the day's final tour, docent Allison Leigh makes her rounds while locking up…and finds a colleague slumped over Bedford's desk, impaled on his own replica bayonet.Resident ghosts may be the stock-in-trade of stately Philadelphia homes, but Allison—a noted historian—is indignant at the prospect of «ghost hunters» investigating this apparent murder. Agent Tyler Montague knows his hauntings and his history. But while Allison is skeptical of the newcomer, a second mysterious murder occurs.Has «Butcher» Bedford resurfaced? Or is there another malevolent force at work in Landon Mansion? Wary, yet deeply attracted, Allison has to trust in Tyler and work with him to discover just what uninvited guest—dead or alive—has taken over the house. Or their lives could become history!
