As a law intern, I swore I'd play by the rules. Then Brandon Wilson walked in—six-foot-something of grumpy, brooding baseball royalty… and zero patience for anyone who challenges him. He’s cocky.

The Christian life is not a sprint; it is a course laid out by the Master, filled with fairways of blessing, rough patches of trial, and hazards that test the depth of our trust. Like golf, every swing we take on this journey is an act of faith, and every hole completed becomes a testimony to God’s grace. In *Par for the Course*, Dr. Michael H. Yeager draws a profound connection between the game of golf and the believer’s daily walk with Christ. Each drive down the fairway reminds us to press toward the mark. Each bunker illustrates the pitfalls of temptation. Each green teaches us ...

One closet. One night. Now I’m risking my badge—and maybe my heart—for a woman I barely know. I didn’t know her name when we got shoved into that closet. Just that she was curvy, gorgeous, and clutching my arm like she trusted me. We were hiding. Breathing each other in. Adrenaline made everything feel sharp. Urgent. Inevitable.

Because she’s somehow tied to the symbol in my missing person case. And I’m forced to keep her ...
