Sometimes true strength only comes with surrender.
Hot-headed Dallas Malone has spent most of his life putting up emotional walls around himself, softened only by his best friend Channing, who he protects with the fierceness of a big brother. When the two are faced with sudden homelessness, Dallas’s impulsive decisions leave them fleeing from law enforcement and land him in prison. While struggling for mere survival in an abusive environment, his mistakes threaten to ravish Dallas like a wildfire, unless he can learn to allow something more powerful than himself into his life.

The Fire of Your Love - Book Three
The world wants him. But God wants him more.
Dallas Malone knows what God wants of him—but the eight-year path to the Catholic priesthood is a daunting one. Faced with self-doubts over a past criminal conviction, the unknowns of his fatherless history, and hostility from Daniel, a holier-than-thou seminary classmate who knows his secrets, Dallas wonders if he’s really cut out for this life. But his calling burns deep within him, and he must push himself to stay the course and forgive old, deep-cutting hurts. Will Daniel dredge up Dallas’s history and ruin his reputation along with all he’s tried to build for his future? Or will Dallas conquer the ghosts of his past to offer up his entire life in the service of Christ?
