With the cookies baked and delivered, it is now time to turn my attention to wrapping gifts. This is usually the time when my insecurities come out. Is this really the perfect gift? Why did I think they wanted this? Is it too late to change my mind? No..Yes..No..Yes. UGH!! Just wrap the darn present and let them hate you. They never hate me, and it’s usually a pretty thoughtful gift. My favorite ones to give are the ones that make people cry. Yes..I am kinda evil, but I mostly use my powers for good. The best gift I ever gave, and will never be able to top is back when I was still in High School. I had traveled to Canada to visit my grandfather that I had only really met one time before. I wanted to learn about my family and see if I could find a picture of my dads mom. She had died of cancer when he was only ten years old, and hadn’t seen her face in well over 50 years. After searching my grandpas house for three days, he pulled out a beautiful picture of her out of his wallet. I had it copied at the local camera shop. I had to hold on to the picture and not tell my dad about it for six months. That killed me. It was worth the wait though. On Christmas eve, when he unwrapped that gift, the look on his face was priceless. I have never topped that gift. I reckon I never will.
Flux

FREE for a limited time
Lost in time, the town of Black Creek, Kentucky becomes home to temporal layers of people, creatures, and monsters from disparate eras. Journey beyond the time of humanity and witness the rewriting of mankind’s genesis.
For Owen McCoy, a typical day on the job as head of security for Synergy, a research company conducting mysterious experiments, is boring at best. And that’s the way he likes it. Patrolling the Appalachian mountainside, where his now deceased father taught him how to hunt, is relaxing and connects him to the past.
But today is not a typical day on the job. It begins with asking a thief to join him for breakfast. Seeking to set the young man on a better path, Owen invites him to walk the perimeter with him and consider a more honest living. Before their patrol can begin, they discover evidence that the facility has been breached. When Owen’s truck explodes, he’s confused, but ready for whatever might come his way.
At least, he thinks he is.
A wave of light-bending energy–the Flux–rolls down the mountainside, transporting Owen, and everyone in the nearby town of Black Creek, to October 14, 1985, the day before his father died. Two hours later, the second Flux hits, and then a third, and a fourth, each time collecting Black Creek residents from various times. They’re carried through eras filled with wild animals, monsters of myth, and ancient beasts… and then beyond.
Joined by a ragtag group of temporal stowaways, including family members, Owen fights to restore order, stop the Flux, and return home, facing off against futuristic tech, primal killers, and the fear of losing his father… again.
International bestselling author of The Others and Infinite, Jeremy Robinson combines science, action, and strong characters to create an ever-changing landscape that explores the past, the human condition, and the lengths people will go to save those they love.

But fate is about to rattle his life when a familiar matchmaker breezes into town determined to marry off her twelve mail-order brides. Suddenly facing down a four-hundred-pound bear pales in comparison of once again facing the only woman he’s ever loved.
