Awaken My Heart (2008)
1803, The Colony of Texas
Journey back to the early days of southwest history when the Spanish ruled the vast territory of Texas and padres instructed the people in the ways of God. Step into the world of handsome vaqueros and brightly dressed dark-eyed maidens.
Open this book to a romance that will live in your heart long after the story is told. Curl up in a serape and listen to the strum of a Spanish guitar. I invite you to read with your heart and become a part of a love story that only the hand of God could orchestrate.
--Review:
"AWAKEN MY HEART is a terrific early nineteenth century Texas Colonial romance starring two caring protagonists who in many ways seem like a North American Romeo and Juliet. The story line is fast-paced and loaded with action . . . DiAnn Mills provides a delightful historical that brings to vivid life a time and place that rarely if ever has served as the background." - Harriet Klausner

--Endorsements
" Lost Boy No More is a riveting readsimply one of the most moving books I have read in some time. The sacrifices of the church in Sudan make our worst days seem benign."
Dr. Ergun Mehmet Caner
Author, Christian Jihad
Liberty University, Lynchburg, Virginia
" Lost Boy No More tells the powerful story of young men whose homeland has been ransacked and whose families have been destroyed in a genocidal and hate-filled campaign of terror. It is an account that will make you look differently at the world and the plight of those who yearn for liberty."
Dr. Richard Land, President
The Southern Baptist Convention's
Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission
"During every holocaust, every genocide, every ethnic cleansing, the world squeezes its eyes shut and stops its ears. And ever after, it vows 'Never again!' It must not be so with the Body of Christ. Lost Boy No More is must-reading for Western Christians. May it open our eyes, bend our knees, and spread our arms wide to embrace our Sudanese brothers and sisters."
Brad Phillips
President, Persecution Project Foundation
"The heartrending stories of Lost Boy No More will stay with you for a long time. The boys of the Sudan had their childhood stolen from them and replaced with a nightmare. The stories will also fill you with hope, as they exemplify the resilience of the human spirit."
Congressman Tom Tancredo
Colorado's Sixth District Representative

My husband is reading Breach of Trust. He was fascinated with the peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches. He wanted me to ask you if that's something you eat.

He saved us from all that. It was all his doing; we had nothing to do with it. He gave us a good bath, and we came out of it new people, washed inside and out by the Holy Spirit. Titus 3:5 The Message
I pray that you see yourself cleansed - not by your own efforts, but by the grace of your Loving Abba Daddy.
