From celebrated author Janette Oke (The Love Comes Softly series) comes a rigorous and romantic adventure as epic as the wide frontier. Erin Krakow (Army Wives), Daniel Lissing (Eye Candy), Jack Wagner (Melrose Place) and Lori Loughlin (Full House, 90210) star in When Calls The Heart, "a beautiful story with roots in relationships, self-empowerment, and the enduring power of love" (Common Sense Media).  Elizabeth Thatcher (Krakow) is a strong-willed teacher who has foregone the life of the big city and found a job, a home - and a bit of unexpected romance with a handsome Mountie named Jack - in the small frontier town of Hope Valley. But life on the frontier can hand you many tough turns, and so it is for Jack and Elizabeth as they face their very different upbringings, the pressures put upon them by family, rival suitors and even various criminal counterfeiters and kidnappers in their quest to find their place in this remote and rugged land.

Nestled in New Hampshire's Lakes region is the family-owned and operated Mill Fudge Factory & Ice Cream Cafe.  Housed in a quaint, historic 1700's grist mill overlooking the Newfound River, the Factory has been quietly serving high quality fudge, made from the Munro family's traditional Scottish recipe, since 2006.   Advocates of the slow food movement, the Munro family make their fudge with all natural ingredients including Callebaut Belgian dark chocolate, Cabot butter, pure honey and cane sugar and staunchly avoid corn syrup, preservatives, artifical flavors and colors.  The hand-crafted fudge is now available for shipping across the US through the factory's online store.	themillfudgefactory.com	$14.99/lb	http://www.atticgirl.com/2015/09/the-mill-fudge-factory-holiday-gift.html#.VilAkCt-pds	N/A
