Joshua Neville is a quiet, even-keeled rancher who was just minding his own business when he witnessed a brazen bank robbery in San Antonio, Texas, that left three men dead. Even more shocking than the heist itself is that the ringleader looked like a woman! Having escaped a gang of robbers who forced her to participate in a bank heist, Kate Wellington adopts an alias and decides to flee to Mexico. Lost and hungry, she stumbles upon the camp of a man named Josh Neville who offers to escort her across the border. But when she injures her ankle, the kindly cowboy takes “Dinah” home to his ranch to heal, instead. As the two grow closer, Josh realizes he’s fallen in love, even as he learns the truth about Dinah. But does he know the whole story? And, after the truth comes out, will he put his life at risk to keep her with him?
The book is trying to define the beautiful and the dark side from a man and a woman, that are in love of each other, but not as theory ... but as a result of analyzing facts that are happening on the timeline of the love story. It’s a book about a fairy tale, with 2 lovely characters that are not understanding, but also are not accepting that the meaning of an abstract love ... or an imposible story is to enjoy only the beauty of what is going on. The 2 people from the essays get lost so many times, that not even the people around them can’t see if the story itself is real or not. But it’s all a journey of accepting the beautiful and the dark side from the person that you love so much. After the first period when you are blinded by love, it comes the second episode when you see that you are not in love with a god, but with a human being ... and just as you have millions of imperfections ... the same has also that magic person that you fall in love with. It’s a book that defines the fact that we should accept the things just as they are ... and love with an opened heart ... no matter what is going on. The nice part is that the book is not a collection of imaginary stories ... but essays that talks about a real story between 2 adults that wants to redefine and also restart their lives ... but in the end just enjoy the fact that they met ... losing any expectation at all as the story to become a real one. Today you are happy, tomorrow you are not .. and the essays describes this in a very honest, but also beautiful way ... all those amazing moments spent togheter.
This trilogy includes the first two books (Little Bobby O'Malley and The Spirit of the Conch Shell) that reflected some of the fond memories the author had of the undeveloped jungles and wooded areas of Southeast Florida in 1949. In the new third book, The Pirates of the Bermuda Triangle, the author's imagination carries the reader on an exciting adventure at sea. All three books are both educational and fun to read, and the heartwarming ending will bring tears of joy to young readers of all ages.

Love and Dreams ". . .human life. . . beautifully observed" Announcing Love and Dreams by Barberi Paull Feit Love is a power. It can be elusive. And the characters of LoveandDreams are touchingly human. It is their reality as human beings just as it is our own to learn to protect the love they have and to respect its fragility. They are explorers who have set out on an expedition in search of love. They send us accounts of their discoveries, their experiences, and the creative solutions by which they have survived the adventure. They give the rest of us an advantage they have alerted us. As a result, when we travel through that terrain, we will not lose time in finding our way or in bewilderment. We will not be slowed by a lack of courage, for they have given us guidance and inspiration. Barberi Paull Feit has a view of the inner landscape, which is perceptive, profound and intelligent. She interprets what makes us human with sympathy and good humor. Throughout the many years of her practice in psychotherapy, thousands of patients have benefited from her insight and her vision. Now we have the advantage of sharing in her observations on the way of life and the way of love. Mary-Leighton Land Smith In the story of LoveandDreams, the elegantly drawn characters filling the pages of the book are related by their privileged social circumstances. But their bond is not one of class. They are bound by their commitment to each other; by the responsibility they feel for each other - their love and their friendship. At the center of the story is Ogden Graves, a talented and complex man whose search for meaning takes him on an odyssey of years; Bandit and Charlotte Hutchins charismatic, socially and professionally ambitious; Henley and Hayes Buchanan renegade bluebloods whose genius keeps them on the edge of expulsion from The Social Register; Andy Morgan scion of the Morgan dynasty in America, Alice Gonzalez an impassioned and independent socialite, Vera Whitmore quietly playing the role life had assigned her, and others. I am confident that you will enjoy and learn from this book. It is both a compelling story of wonderfully multifaceted characters and a self-help book in the form of fiction to assist us much more interestingly in the struggle of understanding love. LoveandDreams is published through our Illumina Imprint and by Xlibris. ISBN numbers: Hardcover #1-4134-0305-0; Paperback #1-4134-0304. Hemmings Knight Managing Director Illumina, Inc.

Brian Bouldrey traveled to the island of Corsica, with its wine-dark Mediterranean waters, powdered-sugar beach sand, sumptuous cuisine, and fine wine. And then he walked away from all of them. Bouldrey strapped on a backpack and walked across Napoleon's native land with the same spirit many choose to dance or drink: to celebrate, to mourn, to think, to avoid thinking, to recall, to ignore, to escape, and to arrive. This wonderfully textured account of a two-week ramble along a famous Corsican hiking trail with his German friend Petra (she was good at the downhills while he was better at the uphills) offers readers a journal that is a launching point for reflection: thoughts on cultural differences, friendship, physical challenge, personal challenge, and getting very, very lost. Part travelogue, part memoir, and part lampoon, this book offers readers an impressionistic view of a little talked about yet stunningly beautiful landscape.

When McKenzie arrives at Zach’s ranch, she immediately puts her plan in motion, searching for her sister and doing all she can to keep her new husband from forming an attachment. But his persistent kindness and significant self sacrifices begin to change her heart—and ruin her plans.
