He was sent to save her life, but ended up losing his heart, memories, and clothes. Eden Credere should be in Barbados with her new husband. Instead, it was like she married Murphy and his law was ruining her life. She'd lost her dad, her job, her best friend, and her fiancé. After drowning her sorrows with rum and eggnog on Christmas Eve, she takes a tumble in a tree lot with a Douglas Fir, sending Eden over the edge. Theliel has watched over Eden her entire life, from her first steps to her latest, where she took a dive in a tree lot. He's always been there to save her, and this time should have been no different-until it was. As her guardian angel, he's not supposed to be seen, but one corporeal slip-up later, and he's got a lot of explaining to do. As Theliel works to convince Eden why the world is a much better place with her in it, he finds himself the one falling, and it's Eden who catches his heart. In a twist of fate, Theliel must not earn his wings, but his humanity by convincing Eden they're meant to be together. The only problem is neither of them remember who he is when he wakes up on Christmas morning in a snowbank with no memories and no clothes. With the magic of Christmas in the air, love in their hearts, a vision of yoga pants, and maybe a little help from their "friends", all they have to do is believe.

The Great Lie of the Civil War If you think the Civil War was fought to end slavery, you’ve been duped. In fact, as distinguished military historian Samuel Mitcham argues in his provocative new book, It Wasn’t About Slavery, no political party advocated freeing the slaves in the presidential election of 1860. The Republican Party platform opposed the expansion of slavery to the western states, but it did not embrace abolition. The real cause of the war was a dispute over money and self-determination. Before the Civil War, the South financed most of the federal government—because the federal government was funded by tariffs, which were paid disproportionately by the agricultural South that imported manufactured goods. Yet, most federal government spending and subsidies benefited the North. The South wanted a more limited federal government and lower tariffs—the ideals of Thomas Jefferson—and when the South could not get that, it opted for independence. Lincoln was unprepared when the Southern states seceded, and force was the only way to bring them—and their tariff money—back. That was the real cause of the war. A well-documented and compelling read by a master historian, It Wasn’t About Slavery will change the way you think about Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the cause and legacy of America’s momentous Civil War.
