As a mysterious chain of events unfolds, Margo is led down a convoluted path she never expected. In this thrilling tale, a young woman haunted by her nightly dreams must decide who she can trust-those in her dreams or those in her reality.
This book was written largely for the benefit of the writers children and grandchildren so they would know something of the life and hardships faced by their pioneering ancestors. It was inspired by their questions about our childhood and youth and their own memories of many visits to the Kansas farms of their grandparents and great grandparents. However, we think many other readers will enjoy learning something about what it was like growing up on a midwestern farm in the 1940s and 50s. A time that was in many ways much simpler but certainly not easy. We had the privilege of knowing personally grandparents and great grandparents who had lived through the many profound changes that occurred around the change of the century. Automobiles, tractors and telephones had only arrived on the farm about 30 years earlier and the grandparents' barns and garages were still filled with horse-drawn equipment and harnesses from an earlier era. Electricity and graveled roads only occurred after WWII in our memory and running water and indoor bathrooms were still not common on many farms as late as 1955. It was a different and changing world of which we were privileged to be a part. Almost all our relatives lived nearby, and neighbors all knew us and didn't hesitate to let our parents know if we were up to any mischief. We were expected to take responsibility, work hard, always be truthful, stay out of trouble, study hard and plant straight rows. All are excellent traits that unfortunately are not as valued today as they were then. In the book we have shared some history of the area and some stories of incidents from our lives that were not uncommon among farm families. We hope readers enjoy learning about us and our families.

Marine Sgt. Mike Shaffer stood alone on the battlefield, looking up at the beast from hell. He would need every bit of wisdom and courage he possessed to withstand this satanic challenge to his faith. Yet instead of cowering in fear, Mike stood his ground with a conviction that exemplified his Christian character. The source of his confidence was the one who stood behind him-the Advocate. It was his job to defend Mike against Legion's condemning accusations. Legion could have used any appearance he wanted to deceive Mike: the snake that seduced Eve, one of the superhuman demoniacs of biblical times, or the angel of light that tempted Christ. God had granted Satan one chance to break Mike's spirit, and it had to be done on the eve of a battle long since lost to history. So the old shape-shifter chose his most intimidating form: tall, dark, and masculine. His naked and genderless body spoke of power beyond human understanding. With eyes of steel, the Advocate stared at Satan's most feared henchman, his jaw fixed, ready to litigate Mike's case before God. However, his Defender knew that any physical interference in this inquisition was limited to protecting Mike's body. The Paraclete had sealed Mike's soul for the resurrection, so this testing was to question Mike's spiritual integrity: was he worthy of God's grace and his kingdom? Although Mike would be given a place of honor in the throne room of heaven for his victory over Satan's dark force of doom, this story doesn't end there.

Stories of old were communicated interpersonally, conveying information necessary to our survival. This extraordinary power led to mankind's dominion over the world. Today, our stories are largely fed to us by way of our devices, our black boxes, which are incredible tools for spreading that same knowledge and wisdom globally. However, in the wrong hands, they are terrible weapons of misdirection, encouraging those under their influence to indulge selfish appetites and glorify victimhood, leading them to make the same mistakes that inspired those ancient stories in the first place. These stories shape the human mind to the same degree that we are what we eat, influencing the behavior of individuals and societies alike. Our shared stories, fantastical or otherwise, either reflect eternal truth and wisdom of the ages, or they do not, instead perpetuating a foolishly idealized form of reality. Put another way, they either prepare us for the inevitable obstacles of life, or they lead us to ruin. Such is the cunning of progressivism, an egregiously duplicitous philosophy that at first glance appears benevolent, but leads to devastating personal and societal consequences when put into practice. This book stands as a grand indictment of the illusion of progress, exploring how the seductive draw of its promises is nothing more than a trojan horse, a devil in disguise that threatens mankind's hard-won order over a chaotic world.

The Sixth Son is the second novel of a trilogy on human trafficking involving US Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and their relentless effort to curb Mexican cartel shipments of kidnapped women and children across the US border. Unlike the prequel, The Old Cop, which involved a retired US Agent, AgustÃn Camelia's intrepid efforts to battle this evil, The Sixth Son concerns the struggles of a highly regarded Maryland family, the Mancinis, who recently made a bizarre discovery about their late patriarch, Geovani Mancini, who migrated to the US from Sicily in 1939 with the assistance of Sicilian mafia members. Unknown dubious New York relations now threaten to tear the family apart. Geovani Mancini's sons and daughter, who now run the family business, agree to withhold these findings from the rest of the family until a private investigator thoroughly investigates. Meanwhile, unrelated to the familial turmoil, a young grandson and college student, Alex Mancini, has accepted a job as an intern with HSI while finishing his master's degree. Among his duties is interviewing recent victims of human trafficking and preparing them for court testimony. The case involves twenty-seven women rescued by HSI in La Vergne, Tennessee, two months prior. While interacting with HSI Special Agents on this investigation, Alex learns about Camelia's contributions to the case and his mysterious disappearance in Mexico. Gripped with the story, he volunteers to determine his current whereabouts. Alex's probe places him in the crosshairs of the Mexican cartel members, who are poised to retaliate against US intruders.

"HOLIDAY CELEBRATIONS and Much More" is Pat Morrell-Donnelly's tenth (10th) book to publish. It has been said "Don't look back if you don't want to go that way." This is true when looking back at mistakes and challenges one has faced. But sometimes it is good to reflect on the past particularly regarding special holidays, events and happy times. "Precious memories how they linger." It is sometimes helpful to reminisce and remember loved ones and friends, many of whom are no longer with us. Recalling special Christmas's, Thanksgiving dinners and get-together's with family and friends can be good for the soul. Nostalgia 2 point O. It is good to spend a few moments in thought regarding these joy-filled celebrations, special times and memorable events spent with loved ones. "HOLIDAY CELEBRATIONS and Much More" speaks to just those things, those celebrations and events so precious to recall. This book contains 200 poems Pat has written through the eighties, nineties, two thousand and on about different holidays and celebrations. After some of the sets of poems there are pictures depicting the occasion, and pictures of Pat's table settings representing each holiday or event. Some poems also convey what was going on in the country, to some extent, particularly the years about which her poem was written. Also some poems tell about what was going on in Pat's life at that particular time. To find all of the New Year's poems in one place, covering so much of the past history, is quite unusual and unique. Pat's first book to publish "The Climb Up Life's Mountain" was published in 2009 when Pat was eighty years of age. Her ninth book "All About Love" was published July 2023. Pat published her first nine books in fifteen years. Pat has written over eighteen (1800) hundred poems. Pat shares many of her life's experiences through her poetry. Thoughts wake her up in the night and she scribbles those thoughts, or poem, on a note pad deciphering the next morning. She has written many poems while under the hair dryer. Pat's aim is to get her poems out of her computer into books so they will not be lost forever when she is no longer here. At age ninety-four only the Good Lord knows when the final page of her "Life's Book" will be written and finished. Pat is thankful for the "gift" God has given her to write poetry. If it lifts some ones spirit, or takes them away for a few minutes from worldly cares, it will have been worth her time publishing this book.
In keeping with the saying "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree," She explores the femininity found within the Trinity. This is where we, as women, begin to find answers to who we are and what we're meant to be. Author Lenné Hunt explains that many things hinder women from coming into the fullness of God, the truth of their own identity, and an authentic life. You might have a tale of woe that stems from your childhood. Or perhaps you've lived as an unmentored woman-with no one to speak into your feminine soul and no guide for your journey of becoming. Perhaps it's simply from your experience in a difficult world where Eve and her daughters have often been targeted by the evil one, sometimes wearing the guise of authority figures (from civil government to church leadership, school officials, and workplace bosses) and sometimes speaking through the voice of wounded Adam. She offers an invitation to explore the journey of your life and the collective experience of women.

Moonlight Parker thinks she lives in a normal world, unaware of the magic that runs in her blood. Minu Ginger is the victim of a tragic past, in which a war took both her parents. When Moonlight gets a visit from Minu -her newly assigned unicorn- she's introduced to a world she's never imagined. Harmony is a magical place in the clouds where unicorns, dragons, and magical beings called Petunians live alike, unknown to humankind. Minu is the ruler of Harmony and has now introduced Moonlight to the future she will lead at Manona High, a school of magic in the clouds. Moonlight is to study the magic in her blood at Manona High, and she learns how to control the powers within her Strixcus -the relic she uses to perform magic. But it all goes downhill when Minu reveals to Moonlight her dark past, and the brother she used to have. Guller Ginger is the monster who struck a war against the rest of Harmony. He rallied up all Dark Unicorns -the bloody creatures who are the only enemies known to Harmony- in an attempt to take over Harmony, and murder his own sister. When bodies start dropping dead at Manona High, Moonlight can't take it anymore. The abnormal magic, the dead bodies, and the murderer out to get her and her friends are too much for her. But when Guller reveals his return, hell reigns glory over the surface of the clouds, and it's obvious that he's coming for Moonlight -the only Maroon Petunian alive other than Guller himself. The hunt for the Noble Ruby begins, and now Moonlight has to stay and fight. It's a race against time, magic, and Guller himself. Bodies drop dead, betrayal is in the air, and history is bound to repeat itself.
