Great initial review and some cool news.

Getting a 5 star review makes me smile. It's neat that someone who purchased and read a copy of Billiard Buddies thinks it's worthy of such a sought after rating. I am ever grateful for reviews on Amazon.

In addition to this novella's wonderful start, I received news that my Navy SEAL story will receive a contract shortly. How exciting! I'm walking on air. Of course the hard work never stops and I must get the word out about all my books: A Beautiful Girl, Love's Intensity, and Billiard Buddies.   Great reads for the summer!

Must...keep...on...writing!

Happy 3rd Birthday to A Beautiful Girl!

It's day seven of a week long 3rd release anniversary celebration. Thanks so much for coming along for the ride.  Here's an uplifting excerpt from the chapter titled A Cry For Help In Desperation:
     I could hear it. I could feel it. I heard my special song, the song I heard on that beach so many years ago. I leaned forward onto my toes and inhaled deeply, infusing my insides with the music I heard.
     That made me smile.






Consider giving this novella as a gift to someone in your life.

6th Day Pick!

Excerpt from the chapter titled The Horror Continues:
     My bus was gone. ~ "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It won't happen again. Please don't. I promise..." I begged, but my knees gave way, and he dragged me into the house.

Can anyone rescue Sara?

Paperback and PDF available on my website store.  I'll even sign the paperback when you order.

It's the 5th Day! Yeah!

Excerpt from the chapter titled Hope Exposed:
     I touched Sara's hand. That's all I did. Why did she run? I thought for sure after we played so well together, she had finally relaxed with me. ~ No...I'm still a stranger to her, and I still don't know what her baggage is.

The readers who love this story cross many boundaries from those who've experienced this story to those who have not, from one ethnic background to another, male and female. The pain is all too real and often goes unnoticed. Thank goodness individuals like Rick exist for ones like Sara.

Partying Some More on Day #4!

Excerpt from the chapter titled Clearing The Air With Song:
     I placed my left hand on the keys and started to play. Rick joined in and we played the song as if we were one. It felt glorious like this was meant to be.
     After we finished the piece, I felt a shiver. I hoped he didn't notice.
     "I want to be your friend so much, but my step-father has forbidden me to make friends with anyone." I couldn't look at him.

Music means different things to the many who appreciate it's sounds.  For Rick, it's his passion.  For Sara, it brings healing to her troubled and damaged heart.  The piano bonded these two teens at a time when friendship is the last thing Sara can afford.

Day #3. Celebrate with me!

Excerpt from the chapter titled Rick Notices Sara:
     I studied her as she found a seat in the back of the class. I smiled at her when she looked up, causing her olive skin to slightly redden.  I finally released her from my gaze when she turned away once more.

It's hard enough to make friends in a new place.  Even harder when you're not allowed to make friends.  Fortunately, Rick gently tapped against Sara's emotional shield until she let him in. He soon realized he needed him from the adults closest to him.
