Vince Sanford is a high school football coach who has entered a midlife dilemma. How can he be sure that he is passing on important values and stories to his children?...Track the events of a single day as Vince Sanford drives his family to his parents' home in Ashland, Ohio, for Thanksgiving dinner. During the trip, his personal reflections and in-depth conversations with his wife and two children provide the encouragement Vince needs to handle the reality he must face once in Ashland.
Thanksgiving protector
by Sharon Dunn

When border patrol agent Kylie Perry's informant is murdered, she makes good on her promise to raise the woman's baby girl...but soon becomes the target of a killer. Now Kylie must find a way to juggle motherhood and her work on a joint task force aiming to capture a notorious drug kingpin--and somehow stay alive. Texas Ranger Austin Rivers, who's partnering with Kylie on the case, is a lone wolf dedicated to his job. Yet as the criminal's henchmen come after Kylie and her baby, Austin vows to protect them. And as Thanksgiving approaches, the man who never thought he was father material risks everything to save a woman and child who feel like family.
A Deadly Feast
by Lucy Burdette

Key West food critic Hayley Snow scents-es something fishy when a customer falls stone-crab cold dead on a seafood tasting tour. Thanksgiving is nearly here, and Key West food critic Hayley Snow has just one more assignment to put to bed for Key Zest magazine before she gets to celebrate with her family and her police officer fiancé, Nathan Bransford. Then, just days later, wedding bells will ring--if death doesn't toll first. The sweet potatoes and stuffing will have to wait when Hayley picks up a distraught phone call from her friend, Analise Smith. On the last stop of a seafood tasting tour run by Analise, one of the customers collapsed--dead. With the police on the verge of shutting down the tour--and ruining Analise's business--Hayley can hardly refuse her friend's entreaties to investigate.
