      “A moving, fast-paced account of the end times.” —Publisher's Weekly Millions vanished into thin air. Now, wars are erupting in all corners of the world. Major cities have been ransacked and looted, and governments and global organizations are collapsing... Yet this is just the beginning of the chaos that is to come. Caught in the middle of an international crisis and struggling to unravel the web of mysteries that surround it, Emma Grady and her growing family of outcasts must find a way to survive in New York City, gutted by a nuclear attack. On the other side of the globe, Zerah Adler finds his homeland of Israel on the cusp of annihilation, surrounded by a fleet of invaders. In this gripping follow-up to The Time of Jacob’s Trouble, bestselling author Donna VanLiere explores the end-times prophecies in the journeys of Emma, Zerah, and others bracing for what will happen next as danger closes in and civilization crumbles on an unprecedented scale.

      The Day of Ezekiel's Hope
    • Donna VanLiere's The Christmas Secret is a novel for anyone who wants to see how love is a gift that keeps giving back; that hope is a treasure that never runs dry, and that faith is a miracle that is reborn with each new day. The Christmas Secret is now a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries original film. Watch it this holiday season! When a struggling young single mother saves the life of an elderly woman, she sets into motion a series of events that will test her strength, loyalty, and determination, all the while setting her on the path to finding true love. Christine Eisley is the mother of seven-year-old Zach and five-year-old Haley. Her ex-husband provides little, if any, child support and makes life difficult for Christine by using the children as pawns. She works long hours as a waitress to make ends meet, but her job is in jeopardy because she's often late to work due to the unreliable teenage sitters she's forced to use. When Christine saves the life of a woman who works in Wilson's department store, the owner of Wilson's wants to find her, to thank her, but Christine has disappeared, losing another job once again. He sets his grandson, Jason, to the task of finding the mysterious "Christy." Jason, an accountant by trade who has lost his job to downsizing, thinks he is "above" working at Wilson's. Soon, he discovers that this new task gives him more than he bargains for.
