Tom has been an orphan all of his life. Bouncing from orphanage to orphanage, somehow never landing in a foster home, Tom was getting sick and tired of never having a place to call home. His luck seems to have changed for the better, though, on the day that a mysterious man shows up to take care of Tom, Tom was ecstatic–at first. He quickly learned that this man was not what he seemed. The man, with the help of the orphanage bully, transformed into dragons and attempted to take Tom away from the closest thing he’d ever had to a home. Before the man could take Tom away from Earth, a portal opened, and a teen showed up to rescue Tom. Barely making it out with their lives, the teen introduced himself as Kyle and revealed to Tom that Tom was a dragon. Tom, reeling from this news, initially took some time to adjust to his new almost- dragon life. After a shapeshift attempt and some minor training from the Dragon Keepers, Tom and the Dragon Keeper Cierra tried to steal back the only magical relic that can turn Tom into his true dragon form. But this dragon form was not what Tom expected. Before he could adjust to his new life, Kios attacked the Dragon Keepers’ home. Tom and the Dragon Keepers fought for their home and won, but they had to come to terms with the devastating betrayal that followed their victory. At least Tom–now Tognar–finally had a family and a place to call home.
Moms and kids disagree on a lot of issues. After one particular morning full of disagreements over just about everything, this book was written by a stressed-out mom and deals with the debates over bedtime, chores, bicycling rules, and movie choices. While trying to understand why so many rules exist, the child in the book realizes the rules are in place for his safety and health, and because he is loved.
Parents everywhere can relate to disagreements over family rules. Hopefully, as parents read Mom and I Disagree with their children they can reassure their children that the rules of their home are made out of concern and love.
“Who knows Bob,” John said to the Colonel in a solemn tone. “As far as I am aware, nobody has ever done what we are about to do. Think about it: we are going to put twelve strangers in a bunker one hundred feet underground, and then tell them that all we are going to do is observe their interactions while they perform basic tasks for two weeks. Then we are going to fake a cataclysmic event followed by a complete disconnect for an additional two weeks while we secretly monitor their meltdown from inside. After two weeks of subliminal messaging, and with our guy inside feeding fear into them, they will think World War Three has happened and they are the lone survivors trapped one hundred feet underground. How would you react, Bob?” John asked the Colonel.
HOW WOULD YOU REACT?
“The First Fairy Tale Book I: The Adventure Begins by Susan Highsmith combines elegant
beauty with magical words that inspire and inform us of the mystery and reality of conception.
The beautiful artwork of Mark Sean Wilson adds a transcendent aura to every page. The shapes
and colors of his illustrations combined with Susan’s enlightening text bring us the wonder of the
natural, yet miraculous, ancient journey taken by each of us.”
Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology is a multidisciplinary approach that explores in depth the biological, psychological, mental, emotional, and social development of babies as they grow into unique individuals through their relationship with caregivers. It honors the essence of life throughout the entire lifespan, and emphasizes the significance of the earliest formative relationship, which create the foundation for all subsequent interactions with others.
Dr. Susan Highsmith is an enlightened renaissance grandmother! She is a seeker of truth and spiritual wisdom, a lover of science and knowledge, a caring mother and grandmother, and a qualitative researcher. The Renaissance of Birth is the culminating tapestry of her perspectives as she leads us through a deeply meaningful quest to understand how we bring in our children-how we conceive, carry and birth our babies-past-present-future. We are at a crossroads in our world view paradigm, our understanding of babies and what they need to thrive from the beginning of life, restoring balance between science and feminine wisdom, and how we all, as stewards of the next generation, can help make a difference. For parents-to-be and all of us, I recommend this book!

A routine fraud investigation into a small town mortgage company leads private investigator David Squire from rural Arkansas to Washington D.C. Soon after arriving, he learns that a powerful United States Senator is deeply involved in a bribery scheme along with the President of the Arkansas mortgage company he’s investigating.
David quickly realizes he has a decision to make and he understands that the consequences of the wrong choice would be devastating for his clients back in Arkansas. If he chooses to forget about the sleaze in the nation’s capital, and walk away from his investigation, his clients will lose everything they own. On the other hand, if he chooses to follow the money trail wherever it turns, the consequences could be extremely dangerous for him.
David Squire is a man with a high sense of honor, so he chose the latter. In only a few short days he finds himself on a wild and very dangerous rollercoaster ride involving vile men who will stop at nothing, even murder of the innocent, to protect their criminal empire and to feed their lust for money and power…
The people I’m going to tell you about in this story are long gone. The winds of Time have blown miles of dirt over their graves. History left them behind, lore and legend never got it correct. This story needs to be told, I’m sure that I am the only one left alive that knows it. All that’s left are my memories and some old faded pictures. I don’t have much time left, so here is the true story of my family, the Little Rose Gang.
I was born in Newport, Rhode Island and I was raised in a large family of 9 siblings. Meals were a time of laughter, sharing and getting everyone together. Through the years, the dining room table became the one place everyone would gather, and these are the times I remember the most.
I have strived to always make my table a place my family, friends, and visitors love to be. (for a simple pie and coffee or a full-blown dinner) To do this, I have had to step out of my comfort zone and learn to have fun trying new recipes to make my table exciting and offer everyone a reason to come together.
In my first book, I have shared my favorite recipes that will help you start to make your table the place everyone loves to gather at. No more begging or bribing the kids to come, (I smile as I say that!) make meals a memorable moment and soon you will be creating lasting memories of wonderful times shared while passing the mashed potatoes and gravy! These are the times I feel truly blessed.

“Lake Barrow, Florida is a small, central Florida farming community which prides itself on loving three things: faith, family, and the mighty Spartans of Sims County High. The tiny Bible-belt town is also home to a long-standing feud between two of its most prominent families, the Gills and the Danforths.
Jayce Leonard is a hometown football hero from Lake Barrow who is all too familiar with the Gill-Danforth controversy. After achieving success as a college quarterback at a small university, Jayce is called home in 2003 to coach at his alma mater at the age of twenty-four, making him the youngest high school head coach in the state of Florida. However, he soon finds himself squarely in the middle of his hometown’s checkered history again as he seeks to start a family and successfully lead his beloved Spartans on the gridiron. Alongside him is his college teammate and best friend, Soul Rasheed. “Coach Soul,” as he is known to the team, is a Muslim and former favorite receiving target of Jayce‘s whose enthusiasm and charisma quickly endear him to the players. However, Soul’s presence in Lake Barrow – along with his faith – soon generates fresh strife in the midst of the ongoing discord that has plagued Jayce’s small town for years.
Soul Sprints is a football tale of love, friendship, tolerance, and the ties of family and community that bind, even in the unceasing presence of bitterness and prejudice in post-9/11 America.”
