I think my hubby likes Christmas, but by no means is it his favorite holiday. That was certainly apparent yesterday when we went for our nightly family walk. Our path wasn’t the usual circle around the neighborhood, but rather to the shopping center near our house that has one of the hundreds of fireworks stands in our town. Safe and sane fireworks are only legal in our town and the one next to us with the crazy chickens that have invaded the Walgreens. There are so many chickens there right now. It’s crazy! Anywho.. He was walking a bit faster than usual and I could have sworn he had a skip in his step. When we got to the stand you could see a twinkle in his eyes as he surveyed the selection. So many awesome things that sparkle and scream. Some even let off colorful smoke that is SOOO EXCITING AND AWESOME! That’s what the package said anyway. I wasn’t all that interested. I tried to get into it, but it was driving me nuts watching hubby and the baby bassets read every single package description promising a light show to remember. All of them were the ultimate in sparkles and flashes. Hubby was on the phone with his friend consulting with each other to see which would be the wisest choice for the big day. You would have thought they were planning the royal wedding with how much thought and seriousness they put into it. After much deliberation, we walked home with a box taller than my children. I think I will need more potato salad. I might have underestimated the size of this party.

For Rose Gardner, working at the DMV on a Friday afternoon is bad even before she sees a vision of herself dead. She’s had plenty of visions, usually boring ones like someone’s toilet’s overflowed, but she’s never seen one of herself before. When her overbearing momma winds up murdered on her sofa instead, two things are certain: There isn’t enough hydrogen peroxide in the state of Arkansas to get that stain out, and Rose is the prime suspect.
Rose realizes she’s wasted twenty-four years of living and makes a list on the back of a Wal-Mart receipt: twenty-eight things she wants to accomplish before her vision comes true. She’s well on her way with the help of her next door neighbor Joe, who has no trouble teaching Rose the rules of drinking, but won’t help with number fifteen– do more with a man. Joe’s new to town, but it doesn’t take a vision for Rose to realize he’s got plenty secrets of his own.
Somebody thinks Rose has something they want and they’ll do anything to get it. Her house is broken into, someone else she knows is murdered, and suddenly, dying a virgin in the Fenton County jail isn’t her biggest worry after all.

THE BLOOD FACTOR – (Book 1, A Multigenerational Saga)
In 1861 the civil war has started in the small town of Plymouth, North Carolina. Sugar Hill is a successful plantation of blacks, whites and mulattos who escape to safety to get through the war by relocation and sleight of hand.
Years before the war started, the first Godly owner wanting to right the wrongs of his sires, freed the slaves. The wealthy no longer slaves find that it is not so easy to detangle their life from the Master, or other people with blood ties, who dared to journey through the underground.
At the same time, there is a struggle to deal with the desires of men to keep them oppressed and in slavery, and others wanting them free but not equal.
What started out to be a clear path of you go your way and I go mine, is now a tangled mess that it will take the good Lord to detangle.
Join the Jones and Haughton family on a journey like no other as they test the blood factor. Is blood thicker than water? Is it more powerful than the color of the skin? Is it strong enough to hold family bonds years after separation? Is the blood that Jesus shed powerful enough to help them successfully navigate this journey?

Every family has its secrets.
Sixteen-year-old Merelin Lindon always knew there was something different about her family. There were the ethereal glimmers that always showed up in photos of her dad.

To make it all worse, her father disappeared four years ago, and Merelin could never shake the feeling that everyone stopped looking for him much too quickly.
When she receives a curious medallion that belonged to her missing father, her whole world changes — literally. She finds herself swept into a harsh but beautiful world, where an ancient civilization faces annihilation at the hands of an enemy they have no weapons to fight.
Some fear she will be their ruin. Some of them think she will save them all. And one of them makes her imagine she could.
With the help of the fascinating and sometimes frustrating Guardian named Yatol, Merelin chooses to hazard everything in a daring attempt to find her father and save his people.
But it will be more dangerous than she can even imagine.
