Arizona Macgregor

By: Beverly Sheets Goodwin

Arizona Ari Macgregor was relaxing on a blanket by her favorite mountain pool, when a shadow fell across her face. She opened her eyes, expecting to see Josh. She looked up into the face of a loathsome stranger standing over her. Get away from me, you creep, she screamed at him. He bent down and grabbed her. He reeked of sweat and whiskey as he put his face close to hers, leeringly grinning at her. My creepy hands are gonna be all over your sweet little body, girlie, so relax and enjoy it. He straddled her waist and held her hands in one of his as he fumbled with the zipper of his jeans. He then ripped Aris bikini top off and his weight crashed down on her, crushing the breath out of her. As she screams and struggles to get free, she fears this vile attack will be the end of all her dreams. Oh, God, Josh. Where are you? Please hurry!

Sam: A Girl's Journey

By: Elizabeth Beverly

This is a story about a young girl who comes to terms with her dysfunctional childhood who learns about trust, acceptance, and love. In her first three years of high school, she goes from a shy girl with many secrets and self-doubts to discover who she is and of what she is capable. With the help of a teacher and a few close friends, she accomplishes things she never thought possible. ~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~ Sam went to school the next day and found her fellow students even more wary of her. There were many whispers behind her back and stares as she walked past. The other students weren?t sure what to think of her. The violence they witnessed yesterday was something very few had seen and certainly none of them had ever seen a girl take a punch from a boy. The fact that she took the punch suggested she had not lied that she had taken one before. It was a level of ugliness too difficult for most of them to understand. However, none of this bothered Sam because she was far too familiar with violence and fending for herself. She lived in a very dangerous chaotic world that she doubted any of these privileged dilatants could survive for even the shortest of times. In her mind, the closer you let someone, the better chance you give them to hurt you because you rule life by fear and intimidation. It was a lesson Frank taught her many times, as she thought back to Ms. Kean?s attempt to help her. How dare she try that touchy feely shit on her? Sam was never going to let anyone get close enough to hurt her again. She discovered the long break for lunch was also for serving detention and after a quick lunch, she walked in the classroom and looked at the teacher sitting at the front desk. The teacher looked up at Sam as she walked in the room and even though she knew why she was there, she wasn?t pleased that she had to babysit one student this early in the school year. ?Congratulations, I believe you might have one of the all-time records for quickest detention in the history of this school,? she said as her voice dripped with sarcasm. Sam wanted to say something back to her but remembered her mother?s request to try to behave and quietly took a seat. She sat there quietly counting the minutes until it was time to leave until the teacher broke the silence when she said, ?I heard you like to get in fights with others so perhaps you would like to put that energy into something more productive. I am Ms. Hamm the girl?s junior varsity basketball coach here.? Sam sighed as she got the teacher?s insinuation and sarcastically replied, ?I think I am a bit too small to play basketball.? The coach ignored the snarky reply as she continued, ?Not all players need to be tall and I assume you will grow some over the next couple years. How old are you now?? Sam answered, ?I will be fourteen in a couple months.? Ms. Hamm then asked, ?Did you start school early? It would make sense you would be smaller than the rest of the girls in your class.? Sam hated always being younger and smaller than the majority of her classmates. Sam felt that, along with being an only child, gave them carte blanche to target her for abuse. ?Yes, my mother thought it would be a good idea to make school even more difficult for me,? she lamented. ?I would like you to come to the gym after school, meet with me and a few players and see how you feel about it,? Ms. Hamm requested. ?I?m not very good at anything team related. I am much more of a solo sport person,? Sam answered. ?Is that what you really believe or is that what you want others to believe about you? There will come a time where you will have to trust others and let them trust you. No one makes it through life alone,? Ms. Hamm finished, as it was nearing time to leave. They both gathered their things to leave. Sam thought to herself, just what I need another one giving me ?I need help and to trust others,? speech. She reasoned with herself, the only person Sam needs and should trust is Sam.ÿ

Talks Under the Tiki Hut

The Sharing of Life, Faith, and Family

By: Beverly Reinhard Fekula

We all have stories to share. A friend encouraged Bev to write a few interesting stories about her life. A book was born! The more she wrote, she could see God’s presence in every chapter. Personal stories of family, marriage, rejection, single motherhood, fear, corporate career, college mid-life, love, remarriage, step-mothering, ministry, addiction and debilitating disease. This book is unique—a look at a lifetime of experiences—both funny and sad—compiled into short, easy-to-read chapters that show God’s love, direction, and presence. Bev’s hope is that you find yourself in some of these stories and—find God as well. She learned that He was there even when she was unaware. Be encouraged!

Spanning the Miles

A Story of Lasting Love from WWII

By: Beverly J. Graves

Spanning the Miles: A Story of Lasting Love from WWII By: Beverly J. Graves This is just a simple love story. But it’s not mine, it’s theirs, Dorothy and Henry Collins. It’s all about their love for each other, which came from a time of great strife. During World War II, thousands of European girls married American soldiers and came to the United States after the war. Like many of them, Dorothy and Henry fell in love in England but were to be separated by two countries and an ocean soon after they were married. Decades later, their daughter Barbara finds the letters they had written to one another during the long months apart. Their letters are intertwined throughout this story with glimpses of their lives before, during, and after the war. This is a story of their love, which they vowed could withstand any hardship—a love that spanned the miles.

Little Joe

By: Beverly Jones Copeland

Joe was born in San Antonio, Texas, on the twenty-fourth of September, 1930, to his parents, Joe W. and Margaret Swift Copeland. He was a Texan, through and through, and he grew up doing the things that were expected of a child on a large Texas ranch; things that today seem unbelievable for children to do. In the already hostile hostile environment of the west Texas desert, the Great Depression was extremely hard on the ranchers and farmers in this region, and this is where Joe’s story begins. He grew up in a time when life was simpler, ranch life was challenging, and people appreciated the cherished blessings of many friends and large families.

The Life of an Olympic Figure Skating Coach

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Don Laws

The Life of an Olympic Figure Skating Coach

By: Beverly Ann Menke

At the 1984 Olympics, American Scott Hamilton skated into the history books when he claimed a gold medal in Sarajevo. Beside him the entire time was his coach, Don Laws. A member of the U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame and a U.S. Junior Champion, Laws is one of the most respected and admired ice skating coaches in the world. In addition to Hamilton, Don was the coach of champions Michael Weiss and Patrick Chan. This authorized biography tells the story of Law's exemplary life and chronicles his singular dedication to figure skating. Don Laws: The Life of an Olympic Figure Skating Coach recounts Don's youth, from his childhood in Washington, D.C. to his Junior Men's Figure Skating Championship to his triumphs as a coach on the international stage. Featuring personal interviews with many of his former pupils, this humorous and enlightening biography captures Don's dedication to the sport and to his students. In addition, this book goes behind the scenes of the controversial new judging system--for which Laws was one of only four coaches worldwide to take part in its creation--as well as touches upon the break between Don Laws and his star pupil, Patrick Chan. Including exclusive interviews with Scott Hamilton, Michael Weiss, premier Russian coach Tamara Moskvina, former International Skating Union member Sonia Bianchetti, and current ISU President Ottavio Cinquanta, this book is a one-of-a-kind look at a man who never broke from his beliefs and ideals and never wavered in his love for the sport. A chapter devoted to skating techniques laid out by Laws will be a helpful tool for figure skating coaches; but for the figure skater, and for any fan of the sport, it will be the stories, interviews, photographs, and history that make this book entertaining and inspiring.

Brooke's Journey of Heart

A Mother & Daughter Story of Spina Bifida, Home, and Family

By: Beverly Charles,Brooke Klemme

Brookes Journey of Heart is the story of a daughter who lives each day with the disabilities delivered with her at birth and the mother who gave birth to her. Beverly Charles asked her daughter, Brooke Klemme, if she would like to write her story of living with Spina Bifida. Brooke responded, "Yes! There are two sides to every story." Brooke and Beverly show us both sides of their story in the context of faith, family, and friends. In 1971, more than 6000 American children were born with Spina Bifida, but like most people, Beverly Charles knew nothing about this condition until she gave birth to her third and last child. In this touching memoir co-authored by Charles and her daughter Brooke Klemme, we learn first-hand not only what it means, but what it feels like - to raise a disabled child, to watch her suffer and triumph, and to be that child, who now as an adult, tells her side of the story. Most parents will never have to answer this question - should your new baby live? For Brooke's mother, there was only one answer, an answer that would involve multiple surgical procedures, interminable hospital stays, and an army of doctors and therapists - an answer that would change her and her family forever. This book is a spiritual memoir and a medical one. The authors make connections with Eastern and Western religious practices that have seen them through difficult and joyous times for over four decades. Their story transcends the personal to offer hope and help to other parents who have faced the same hard question and who, like Beverly and Brooke, answer "YES." As one reader said, I loved it. I laughed, cried, got mad, got sad, and now feel like a part of your family.

The Lady and The Captain (Book 2 Gentlemen of Honor Series)

By: Beverly Adam

Sarah Duncan had the kind of beauty suited for the ballrooms of London, not the back alleys of Ireland. But she was a healer, not a debutante. Her life was devoted to helping others, not dressing up and attending fancy balls. And then one stormy night she met him. He was a young, English naval officer, who arrived on her doorstep with his deathly ill friend. Her life would be forever changed.

Walking on Fire

Haitian Women's Stories of Survival and Resistance

By: Beverly Bell,Edwidge Danticat

Haiti, long noted for poverty and repression, has a powerful and too-often-overlooked history of resistance. Women in Haiti have played a large role in changing the balance of political and social power, even as they have endured rampant and devastating state-sponsored violence, including torture, rape, abuse, illegal arrest, disappearance, and assassination. In Walking on Fire, Beverly Bell, an activist and an expert on Haitian social movements, brings together thirty-eight oral histories from a diverse group of Haitian women. The interviewees include, for example, a former prime minister, an illiterate poet, a leading feminist theologian, and a vodou dancer. Defying victim status despite gender- and state-based repression, they tell how Haiti's poor and dispossessed women have fought for their personal and collective survival. The women's powerfully moving accounts of horror and heroism can best be characterized by the Creole word istwa, which means both "story" and "history." They combine theory with case studies concerning resistance, gender, and alternative models of power. Photographs of the women who have lived through Haiti's recent past accompany their words to further personalize the interviews in Walking on Fire.

The Dying Game

By: Beverly Barton

Play To Win. . . It's the ultimate game--the adrenaline surge of the hunt, the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat. For in this game, the rules are simple: To win, you only have to kill. To lose, you will have to die. . . Play To Scream. . . The victims are former beauty queens found with a single rose beside their bodies. Lindsay McAllister has seen this signature before, when she was a rookie detective with the Chattanooga PD investigating the death of Judd Walker's wife, a murder that sent the handsome lawyer off the deep end. Now, Lindsay has the brutal task of telling Judd that his wife's killer has struck again, and she's going to need his help to outplay their opponent--because the killer is getting bolder, faster, and more ruthless. The game is escalating, and no one is safe. Play To Die. . . Now as the body count rises, the rules are changing. A killer will do anything to win. And the only way for Lindsay to stop a madman's twisted game is to play it herself. . .

Mothers Are Precious Keys of Life

By: Beverly R. Wilson

In 2011, when I left the corporate banking industry, I decided to write a memoir, detailing true story events that took place in mines as well as in my familys life both back home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and here in Birmingham, Alabama. With the help of God our father, who gave me the courage and the strength to complete this novel, Mothers Are Precious Keys of Life. As a business entrepreneur, I plan on introducing a new line of copyright products from my book title, such as a line of T-shirts and home plaques that my customers can purchase personally from me. You can look me up on my Facebook page under Ms. Beverly R. Wilson for a request for products or e-mail me at www.bevwoo44@att.net for more details on my future online store. I hope my readers will all be touched by these inspirational stories.

Songs in the Night

Trusting God's Promises in the Dark Hours Volume 1

By: Beverly Norberg

Beverly Jan Norberg knows that even though life is filled with many obstacles, mountains, and valleys, God has been with her through every step as a faithful friend who never leaves or forsakes her. In an inspirational retelling of her spiritual journey, Norberg relies on journals, scrapbooks, photo albums, ministry records, and other documents to chronicle her story, beginning with a childhood immersed in prayer, healings, Billy Graham and Oral Roberts crusades, and campus crusades for Christ. As she relays her varied experiences, she details the growing pains of ministry as well as the pitfalls that some of the faithful experienced along the way while shining a light on God’s mercy and faithfulness. Additionally, she shares insight into her personal relationships with those who stumbled and how she walked with them as they finished their race. Throughout her memoir, Norberg provides encouragement not only to those who have walked with God for decades, but also to those who are just beginning their journeys. Songs in the Night chronicles a Christian’s walk of faith as she learned that nothing surprises Him, even when it goes against His plan and purposes.

Autumn Passion

By: Beverly A. Rushin

Autumn Passion is a story about love found, love lost and the roller coaster ride that results. It is the story of Laura Benning and her parents. It is the story of Mary and Matt Morgan and their family. But most of all, it is about the emotional impact of happiness and heartache, desire and deception and finally reality and renewal. Kahlil Gibran once wrote, "We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them." This family saga exposes both sides of love and loss and the courage it takes to try again.

The Lombardo Story

By: Beverly Fink Cline

The Lombardo Story, Guy Lombardo and The Royal Canadians, the band's life and times, by Beverly Fink Cline, is an eBook re-issue of a 1979 book published by Musson Book Co., a division of General Publishing, Toronto, Canada. Featuring an introduction by Lebert Lombardo, the book is written with co-operation by members of the Lombardo family, who kindly spoke on many occasions with the author (whose grandfather was a childhood friend of Guy, Carmen and Lebert Lombardo) and provided her with photographs from their personal collections. The book also features reminiscences and photographs about other legendary performers, songwriters and venues, contributed by other band members, friends and fans. These memories range from stories about Louis Armstrong, John Jacob Loeb, the Roosevelt Grill, the Waldorf-Astoria, Guy's speedboating victories, to, of course, the band's longtime association with the song Auld Lang Syne and New Year's Eve.

The Operas of William Grant Still

I Dream a World

The Operas of William Grant Still

By: Beverly Soll

William Grant Still (1895-1978) dreamed of a world in which his eight operas--for him the ultimate form of musical expression--would be heard in the major opera houses in the United States, devoting most of his career toward the pursuit of this goal. The first part of I Dream a World creates a context for Still's operas and explores commonalities among them, including structural elements and musical characteristics. The second part traces the research, composition, and perform-ances of the operas as a way of documenting the history of the composer and his contributions to American opera. Although I Dream a World is not intentionally biographical, it is very pers-onal. It is more than the story of William Grant Still's love of operatic music, of the libretti that reflect his own life and philosophy, and of the world he dreamed through his work. It opens a window on Still the man as well as on Still the composer that offers important insights into the social milieu of this pioneering figure.

New Trends in Alzheimer Care

Finding the Spirit Within

By: Beverly Moore

Since my book Matters of the Mind...and the Heart, the trend toward care of the person with Alzheimer's has shifted from mainly finding a cure to a focus on improving quality of life for both the person with the disease and the caregiver. I became a caregiver this past decade. It is quite different being a family caregiver from teaching other families how to manage relationships throughout the caregiving journey. Some of those lessons were featured in Matters of the Mind. This book continues telling of many more lessons I learned. It is a personal account. The hope is that those reading it will be encouraged that they are giving, or have given, the best possible care they could. Caregiving is wrought with varying, strong and often surprising emotions. We must forgive ourselves for being human.
