Peace Officer Raylie McPherson’s mission in life is to protect animals from abuse, and if that means throwing the abusers in jail, so be it. So when the report of two downed horses comes in - from renowned Starstruck Stables, nonetheless - Raylie assumes she can make a quick headline arrest. Despite having to face her horror from the last time she rode, making her relive her fiancé’s death every time she sets foot in a stable, she is determined to do her job. Her coworker swears the owner is innocent, but Raylie’s experience tells her he simply can’t be. But the suspect is anguished, grieving, and too rich to need the insurance money. Ashton Lyre is devastated over the loss of his two favorite horses—a money maker and a brat. So he’s surprised that the pretty Peace Officer accuses him of the foul deed—for money, no less. She fears his horses, which intrigues him, for she’s obviously ridden before. However, he knows he must be cautious, for he just discovered his very empire was built on shaky ground. Should the pretty cop learn of his fraudulent start, he fears everything he owns could be forfeited, and every case that dips into his past dredges up his fears. Sensuality Level: Sensual
Lies. Deceit. Denial. A ghost. Must be Wednesday morning. RoseAngel Dobson - psychic quasi-extraordinaire - uses her telepathic powers to help people and pets at her humane society job. She’ll be the first to admit, though, she’s a masked superhero in this regard, keeping her true colors hidden behind a ringing phone. Helping people - alive or dead - is what she does, and by golly she does it well. So when a darkly mysterious caller with the sexiest voice on the planet calls - accompanied by a ghostly vision of a boy in need - RoseAngel knows she has to find out who this child is, and how to help save him. It has absolutely nothing to do with trying to learn more about the caller who makes her heart do the jitterbug. Nope. Nothing at all. Travis Mattison is hiding his true identity, going under the alias Trevor Matthews, although the spunky redhead who bumps into him at the grocery store seems to know his real name. He is too close to finishing a three-year ordeal, suffering through a series of events that would put a lesser man in R-wing, and if Ms. Dobson knows who he really is, nothing in his world will be safe. Including his life. As the attraction between them grows, so does the risk. RoseAngel’s life gets upended, while Travis’s is endangered. All RoseAngel has to do to save their future is pinpoint Travis’s location on a map. Too bad she was probably eating ice cream the day they handed out that ability. Sensuality Level: Sensual

The story starts out in St. Louis in 1868 with Peter Langerman, an Ex-Confederate soldier leaning on the rail of the steam-wheeler reflecting on his gracious southern lifestyle in Waycross, Georgia. The grandson of a prominent merchandiser, he knew on his release from the Yankee prison that he could not go back home to a war torn South.

It was during that time when the young and adventurous looked to the West for more opportunity and a better way of life. Its about how Billings, Montana was born, the first settlers, their ambitions, hard work, loves, wins, losses and terrible political fights for power and how Billings opened the west for shipping cattle and grain east. "PEGGY", the sequel to BILLINGS, is about the granddaughter of Henry Reiner who continues the story from 1916 through World War II with the third generation grandchildren of Peter Langerman. We meet Ed and Judy MacFarland, the children of Millicent (Langerman) and Frank MacFarland as well as Bill Callahan the son of Mike and grandson of Pat Callahan and Attorney Jim Duffy, the son of Judge Dan Duffy.
A great many of these notes were not written for publication, but for my own self in moments of trouble and in moments of peace and joy." Dorothy Day's reflections-written on the fly over five hectic years-reveal not only the beginnings of the Catholic Worker Movement, but the mind of a heroic woman as she responds to the demands of faith. Now back in print after seventy-five years, House of Hospitality is packed with stories of sacrifice and kindness, strikes and protests, hunger and soup lines, the rough reality of tenement life, and the foul odor of poverty. "I do penance through my nose continually," Dorothy wrote. And yet, as she said, "Our lives are made up of little miracles day by day." Dorothy Day and her fellow workers were "poor for the poor," as Pope Francis has exhorted, and the early years of this Gospel-driven moment have much to teach us about how we can live, today, with a heart for others. "Love and ever more love," Dorothy said, "is the only solution to every problem that comes up.
