Book Description
Catherine O'Shea is the oldest and most responsible of the three O'Shea sisters. She has just buried her mother, one of the last victims of the flu epidemic of 1918. Her father had been one of the first to succumb to the flu and her fiancé was killed in the war. And now there is a detective living at her hotel, the Black Swan, looking into the disappearance of her abusive brother-in-law. He is entirely the wrong person and it is absolutely the wrong time for her to be giving Detective Massey a second look, much less a third and fourth. She'll simply have to control the sparks that fly every time they are together. Quincy Massey just wants to get the little job of finding Ralph Contiello done and go back home to Little Rock, Arkansas. The small town of Huttig is friendly enough but it sure isn't his type of town. And Catherine O'Shea with her smart remarks and red hair is getting under his skin entirely too much. Quincy's unstoppable quest for the truth and Catherine's unflappable determination to keep it hidden immediately sets the two of them at odds. In order to look towards a future with its offer of unconditional love they'll first have to bury the past.

Book Description
From the arrival of the railroads in 1871, through statehood in 1907 and onward through two World Wars, Vinita continued to be a hub of transportation and modernization. Few towns can boast of the number of "firsts" that Vinita has, or its importance in the creation of Route 66, air travel and the Pensacola Dam. Cowboys and Indians still walk the streets alongside doctors, lawyers and artists. Their common ground is a love for small town life and the belief that anything is possible when you work together. It's just one reason why she will always be, Vinita: Queen of the Prairie. The book features 40 chapters covering Vinita, Oklahoma and surrounding communities including Bernice, Cleora, Ketchum, Adair, Tulsa, Miami, Grove, Cardin & Picher. It also features history about the Pensacola Dam and Grand Lake O' The Cherokees including the Cherokee Yacht Club.

Book Description
“What if?” Satan’s project to enslave humanity was born when that one little question was asked. If successful, bloodthirsty demons numbering in the millions will escape hell by possessing the bodies of humans, while those not possessed are doomed into slavery and forced to commit vile acts of depravity. Lilith, Satan’s emissary on earth, uses her beauty and insidious power to mesmerize and stimulate forbidden desires in men and women to ensure the success of Satan’s plan. God’s angels must tackle devastating odds as their newest angel, a twenty-year-old from North Carolina, trained by his heavenly mentor and lover, must survive many efforts to destroy him. Only then will his destiny be realized—that of becoming the most powerful Archangel ever—and working with his earthly companions to save humanity from Satan’s plan of domination. Will humanity’s lust for forbidden desires and the formidable powers of the horrific demons beat God’s own powerful and courageous Battling Angels?

Book Description
If one door closes and another one opens, your house is probably haunted. —Bumper Sticker As a Part-time PI and fulltime grim reaper, Charley Davidson has asked a lot of questions throughout her life: Why can I see dead people? Who is the hot supernatural entity following me? How do I get gum out of my sister’s hair before she wakes up? But, “How do I trap not one malevolent god, but three?” was never among them. Until now. And since those gods are on earth to kill her daughter, she has little choice but to track them down, trap them, and cast them from this dimension. There’s just one problem. One of the three stole her heart a very long time ago. Can the Razer, a god of absolute death and destruction, change his omniscient spots, or will his allegiances lie with his brothers? Those are just a few of the questions Charley must answer, and quick. Add to that a homeless girl running for her life, an innocent man who’s been charged with murdering the daughter of a degenerate gambler, and a pendant made from god glass that has the entire supernatural world in an uproar, and Charley has her hands full. If she can manage to take care of the whole world-destroying-gods thing, we’re saved. If not, well... Those are just some of the questions Charley must answer, and quick. Add to that a homeless girl on the run for her life, a man who's been framed for murdering a woman who is still very much alive, and a pendant made from god glass that has the entire supernatural world in an uproar, Charley has her hands full. If she can manage to take care of the whole world-destroying-gods thing, we're saved. If not, well...

Book Description
Good gravy! Not only is washed-up minor league phenom Elmer Mulroy out in the very worst way, he’s still breezing around the same old no-tell. The one a way out where the high desert takes over and even Vegas’s blazing outskirts fade to black. The one where not even a naked showgirl and a pile of blow can kill the bitter taste of a shipwrecked dream. And we’re not talking to a degree; no, we’re talking every last staggering iota of him. As and sensible dust-to-duster might say, talk about going from bad to worse! Why, it’s gotten so a guy can’t depend on anything anymore, resting in peace included. There’s only one way to sort it all out now, though: nothing less than a pell-mell odyssey through a pretty darned checkered career, if not human history itself. And that’s without even mentioning all the real deadbeats a pretty irked spook is all but bound to bump into when it comes to strapping on the old snowshoes and embarking on anything that drastic.

Book Description
We use social media to facilitate the process of communication. But how well do we concisely communicate our messages and feelings? There are certain drawbacks to new-age technologies, especially due to the need for conciseness. The written word has always carried the meaning and essence of thoughts and feelings that we strive to convey. Similes, metaphors, and sayings from regional areas and time periods specifically carry more meanings than the mere word itself. The 2,300 idioms or sayings in this book convey a meaning that connects generation to generation in the south of our country. Meet the family members that communicated daily and shared their stories using this unique language that is colorful and historical. My aunt, Arlie Wilder, used to say that she hated to see a woman grinning and laughing out loud with her mouth open like “Jenny eatin’ saw briars.” I hope you find yourself laughing like that as you read.
