News from Anna’s Corner
My mother, Emily Ann Combs, graduated to heaven last Thursday. I will be taking a week off to celebrate her life with my family.
My mom wrote “Reflections on Retirement” and posted a new one every week on her website, Emily’s Snippets. There you will find her final blog post titled “Journey to Heaven.” My brother Paul and I finished the blog for her. She didn’t have time. Her passing was unexpected by us all, but it was definitely on her mind.
Below are a few of the books I have published for my mom over the years. To see more, check out Mom’s book page on my website. You can find Mom’s obituary here.

John 14:1-3
Jesus: Don’t get lost in despair; believe in God, and keep on believing in Me. My Father’s home is designed to accommodate all of you. If there were not room for everyone, I would have told you that. I am going to make arrangements for your arrival. I will be there to greet you personally and welcome you home, where we will be together.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for my reader. Lord God, thank You that she becomes discouraged; You are there to hold her in Your arms. She holds fast to her belief in You, knowing You have prepared for her coming. She is Your child and part of the Kingdom family.
And someday, she will arrive, and You will be there to welcome her home in person. And she will be with You forever. Until that day, she continues to serve You with gladness, rejoicing in Your love, peace, and joy. Her hope in You grows daily.
Lord, You are our Great and Mighty King. You fight for us every day. We trust in You. We rest in You, knowing You are faithful. Help us to be grateful and praise Your name, Almighty God. Be glorified through her. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Misplaced kindness was his downfall. But this time, he’ll save the woman he loves. Let evil burn.
Alejandro’s life may seem charmed. A self-made Hispanic billionaire and philanthropist, a man who rebuilt himself after loss. But beneath the façade is a man haunted by the past. A man who failed to protect his wife from ruthless criminals. Now, he devotes his life to justice, pouring his resources into helping victims.
But fighting evil comes at a cost. A shocking betrayal from within his own team. An obsessive stalker is watching his every move. And a vengeful kingpin—Mr. X—who wants to destroy everything Alejandro loves.
When his path collides with Sophia St. Michaels, a fearless media executive chasing the same dangerous enemy, their fates become entangled. They are each other’s only chance at survival. Each attack draws them closer. Every threat strengthens their bond.
As the final battle begins and Sophia’s life hangs in the balance, Alejandro must let go of the past, his guilt, and the rules he once followed. With his unconventional family at his side, he must embrace the Dragon within to protect her.
Evil doesn’t play by the rules. Why should he?
A high-stakes, emotionally charged romantic suspense with twists that will stay with you long after the final page.
