DOWNLOAD EBOOKBlending scientific studies, the author's personal experience, his experience as an ADHD coach, and a zany sense of humor characteristic of those with ADHD, Catholicism and ADHD: Finding Holiness Despite Distractions explores the effect ADHD can have on Catholics. The book begins by explaining what attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is and dispels myths that have circulated about this condition.

Hope is offered through how a person with ADHD can overcome those challenges and how those who love someone with ADHD can support their loved one in their struggle to manage ADHD and their spiritual life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAfter suffering a career ending knee injury, I’m forced to retire from the Chicago Guardians, the pro NFL team I’ve played with for fifteen years. To say it was heartbreaking is the understatement of the century. Even though I’ve had a great career, I find my way back to my hometown of Brystone Springs, Texas. Brystone Springs University, where I’ve taken a coaching job, is where the trouble begins. I didn’t know that one of the team's All-Stars is the man I had a mind-blowing one-night stand with when I first got back to town. Now, I have to see him every damn day. Kody Remington. He’s stubborn, sassy, and intoxicating as hell. His looks and memories of that night haunt me every waking and sleeping moment. His attitude, though, is appalling and makes me want to take him over my knee. I can’t touch him again, though. Not if I want to keep my job, and he wants to stay in school. One day, everything changes. Suddenly, I don’t give a damn about the consequences. I know we both need each other. What I don’t know is if our intense feelings for one another are strong enough to save us both from forces I don’t even understand.
