Books in the Carolina's Legacy Collection series

Every person leaves a legacy; so does every character. Lonely outcasts. Found wanderers. Recovering addicts. War-weary heroes. Homeless families. Grieving loved ones. Good men-gone too soon. Each one's story stands alone, yet all unite along a common thread of dreams pursued and legacy left in this collection of short stories. One life flows into another as each character connects to the next. A person's past can deepen their future and their influence on others. In the words of Pete to Jack, "You'll have people enter your life that'll be more of a support than you might think. Some are there for a few minutes; others, decades. Each has a reason for meeting you when they do. Look for those reasons and thank God for 'em." Revisit beloved characters from Any Good Thing and This Good Thing and descry their legacies of faith, heroism, healing, tenacity and sacrifice. These twelve realistic, hope-filled tales celebrate humans and the connections they share and gifts they leave.

Carolina Burns faces words no one wants to hear. She's dying. She fights for her final year on earth-until she chooses to simply live. Through it all, the Burns family uncovers how to embrace this good thing-life.
