About this eBook

"This book will steal your heart & have you waiting for the next one. It will also teach you to speak your mind when necessary. I do hope this situation never happens in real life! Don't miss a very good emotional read." - Whodunnit, Reviewer

"I love these Friessen men and their families. Was so excited the stories are going to keep on how going. Andy and Laura had a plate full with a sick child and moving to a new state along with twins. Andy has a strong personality and I appreciate him more after this book. What a man won't do for his family. Please read!" - Janet Murphy, Reviewer

"I'm like your other fans, absolutely in love with this family. I so wanted Gabriel to get well and can't wait until Andy's mother finally gets what's coming to her. I've never read of such a vicious, manipulative, heartless character like her before. I love how this family comes together for each other, and the hubbies, momma mia, so masterful, hunks personified. I personally could see this as a series on TV." - Arkansan, Reviewer

"I Loved this book! Thank You Lorhainne Eckhart for bringing the Friessens back. You make the Friessen men so alive and the kind of men us women wish we could meet. The Deadline is a touching story of unconditional love and strength." - A. Customer, Reviewer

In THE DEADLINE, Andy Friessen has packed up everything and moved his family two states away, to Montana, to protect his wife, Laura, his newborn babies, and his stepson, Gabriel, from the threats of his mother. What Andy doesn't know is that they'll soon face a new threat, one he never saw coming.

Gabriel is sick, and a trip to the doctor confirms Laura and Andy's worst nightmare: Without a lifesaving transplant, their son won't survive.

What Andy doesn't count on, as he tracks down the young man who fathered Gabriel, as well as Laura's estranged parents, is that a whole host of problems are about to be unleashed.

"Rarely have I spent time reading a series that had me feeling every thought and emotion." From Mary Ellen

It's said crocodiles eat their young, but Andy Friessen's mother makes a crocodile look like mother of the year! His wife, Laura, her mother is no role model for motherhood either. The author is so great at developing characters and making them real, that at times while reading this book, I found myself cursing outloud at some characters, and almost crying and wanting to hug others. Andy and Laura Friessen have moved two states away from home, with their three children, to get away from his mother who will stop at nothing to manipulate him and destroy his wife. Some troubles, though, you can't run from; their oldest child, 5 year old Gabriel, is diagnosed with a life threatning illness that requires a transplant. This happens a few days after moving to their new home. What happens after that, makes for an emotional exploration of what family and unconditional love is all about. I will read this one, again and again and again!
