Did you ever want to swim with the fish? Of course you haven't, because you're free. Your life is so much different from mine. You see a sea of water, an ocean of freedom, a boundless expanse. You have no concept of life in a cage, where one can't see all this. But when you crave freedom, you dream, of submerging into the sea and swimming with the multicolored fish. The waves carry you, washing away the pain, and you are in no danger of drowing because of the great levity in your body, The pain in your soul drags you down, but the waves take that pain away. Do you realize how easy it is to drown when soul pain drags down your body? You have come into my life and washed away the soul pain without me submerging into the sea.

That flame was blazing in my heart, but there were no lips to sear me with love. My lips were waiting for you so long, till the long road led you to me. Kiss me now, and fill my soul with the vitalizing touch of your lips, the scorching breath of your heart yearning to possess me!

"Everything grows in the suburbs. Grass. Trees. Flowers. Ugly ideas. Take, for example, anti-Semitism."
What happens to an ordinary suburban family when the father is kidnapped by neo-Nazi thugs?
Nora Miller’s perfect suburban world is shattered one May day when her husband disappears from a rally in the park. Set in the 1970s when conflicting ideologies tear at the fabric of society, “Enemy in the Garden” reveals the anti-Semitic strain that lies just below the surface of American life.
In her quest to find her husband, Nora faces official indifference and the betrayal of friends, all while coping with her traumatized teenage daughter and son. Alone, she depends heavily on the private detective hired to track her husband. What she and he ultimately discover shocks and dismays readers.
The novel's theme of anti-government forces twinned with anti-Semitism strikes a timely chord with today's audiences. The Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Ala. catalogued more than 1,000 incidents of violence, threats or vandalism against minority groups, including Jews, in the weeks after the November election, thought to be motivated by divisions stirred during the presidential campaign. Of 1,244 crimes motivated by religious bias in 2015, 53% were directed at Jews. Hate crimes against them rose 9% over the previous year. In what may be as prophetic as "1984," "Enemy in the Garden" shows how all this hatred can destroy an ordinary community.

Being stabbed in the back is more painful than in the front.
Leon and the Swiss stand triumphant after their victory over the Venetians. Their employer, Francesco Sforza, is now the most powerful man in northern Italy. And yet, even in the moment of victory, individuals in the shadows are manoeuvring to rob the Sforza of his triumph and rid Italy of the Swiss.
For Leon Muller, victory, glory and prestige all come to him as he rises in the ranks and his name becomes known not only in Italy, but also in his homeland. He and Sigmund Thyg now become warlords in northern Italy in their own right, and they and their soldiers are soon influencing events and alliances. They are lions on the battlefield, it is true, but making enemies of rich and powerful individuals is fraught with danger, and soon Leon and his comrades have nowhere to turn as their vengeful enemies close in.
‘Prodigal’ is the third volume in the ‘Alpine Warrior’ series – the story of Swiss soldier Leon Muller in the wars of the 15th Century when Europe was torn apart by civil, dynastic and imperial conflicts.Maps of 15th Century Italy and Lombardy are available to view and download on the maps page of my website.

Fiona Hamilton has a secret – a child given up for adoption years ago, with whom she might now be able to reconnect. This doesn’t sit well with husband Michael who believes that sordid episode should stay in the past.
Fiona’s search is further complicated by the fact that not only do teenage daughters Sarah and Jude not know they have a half-brother somewhere but Sarah has been diagnosed with life-threatening anorexia and it’s unclear how the news might affect her.
Michael’s illusory, picture-perfect life is now unravelling fast. After uncovering his latest affair, Fiona wants out of the sham marriage and him out of the house, a Georgian villa called Lionsgate. He stands to lose everything he holds dear, most especially the property for which he espouses a strong attachment.
What secret does Lionsgate hold? The answer will rock Fiona’s world as she attempts to navigate the minefield surrounding her, desperately trying to find answers and right past wrongs. But will the truth set her free or enslave her forever.

BLOG POST > FEATURED EBOOK ● ▸▸▸ Many Devices ● The Happily Ever After Bookstore by Bernadette Marie
Sometimes love needs a little shove.
At the Happily Ever After Bookstore, happiness is always found within the pages of the books on its shelves. Its owner, Leona, revels in finding each reader just the right book to bring them joy. She also enjoys meddling just enough to bring readers together who might not know they are destined for one another.
In need of a holiday pick-me-up, Sadie seeks out Leona’s advice for a good holiday romance. While scanning the book selections, she knocks into Charlie McGowan, who is certainly out of his element. When they learn that Leona “accidentally” gave them the wrong bags at check out, Sadie and Charlie set out to find one another, only to fall for Leona’s matchmaking tactics.
When author Fiona Gable and her ex-husband Price Richter end up in the same town, leave it to Leona to put them in one another’s paths. Decades of marriage couldn’t keep them together after love and loss, but could finding one another under new circumstances change everything?
Though skilled at pairing people together, Leona’s ability to find love eluded her. Her true love was her bookstore. When the bookstore is in need of repair, Jon Ford is sent to fix it. Leona wonders if she might have finally found her happily ever after. But, as fate would have it, Jon comes with baggage—ages three and four. Does Leona have it in her to take on a store, a man, and a family just to have a happily ever after of her own?
"With a goodhearted serpent, a benevolent goddess, and a flawed but determined hero, Loukas and the Game of Chance offers excitement, magic, and, most of all, hope that it is never too late to make things right."
- Vivian Turnbull, Foreword Reviews
While Loukas is playing his flute at the seawall one day, he befriends a mysterious talking, dancing snake that rewards him with fortune and favor. Some years later, tempted by greed and pride, Loukas loses all his riches and his family. He must now set off on a treacherous journey through a frightening forest filled with suspense and strange creatures to find Destiny, her son Ilion, the Sun, and her daughter Luna, the Moon. These celestial guardians will surely allow him to reverse his misfortune, restore his honor, and win back all that he loves and treasures, won't they?
A reimagined Greek folktale, Loukas and the Game of Chance is illuminated with dramatic and evocative pen and ink drawings that provide an ideal backdrop for the dark intrigue that fills this haunting story of human struggle, courage, and resilience.
