Have you ever danced on a dead mans chest or peeked into a crypt at a dead mans face? Have you ever soared over a valley like an eagle, only without wings; or watched an Indian Chief in full warriors dress thunder towards you on a great white stallion? How about proving without a doubt that Santa Claus is real, or maybe you have played with a live pacific coast rattle snake with your bare hands? Everyone has their own adventures and experiences to remember as they grow older, and most probably look back upon those memories with fondness. Bubbins was blessed with being born at a time and place in the world where his freedom of movement was virtually wide open, and with parents and a society who allowed such freedom with very few restrictions. When you peer into a mirror-smooth pond, you discover someone there looking back at you. Is it you? Is it who you were-or is it who you are now? Perhaps it might be who you will become. Take this journey with me; let us peer into the Reflections of Time and discover for ourselves the answers to those questions.

An emotionally charged romance series filled with tough choices, gut-wrenching moments, inspiration, suspense, and laughter. Happily Ever After guaranteed! Beauty, brains, and money. Alexa has it all, and luck is her middle name. She’s the first to defend her family and friends and never needs help in return. Men fall at her feet—except the abrasive police officer Kent, who seems to despise her. But a series of strange events punctures her protective bubble, exposing her to fear and self-doubt. She doesn’t know who she should be more afraid of, her unknown pursuer or the sudden protective, softer side of the officer. Kent has watched the women he loves the most in his life suffer unbearably, unable to save them himself, and now he refuses to get close to anybody. To most people, he’s a heartless, angry cop without a soft interior. Until one stormy day, fate teases him with a warm ray of Alexa’s sunshine, melting a piece of his icy heart. Kent believes he hates her, but when her brightness dims, his hate turns into something else. Something he refuses to let another person take away from him, especially the stranger lurking in the shadows. "Stunning and dramatic, with a shocking twist at the end!"

When eighteen-year-old Charity Michaels left her hometown of Whitstokes, Michigan, twenty years ago, she never intended to return. That changes when her childhood friend, Marissa Tyson, is charged with murdering her husband, the Reverend. James Tyson II. Now an attorney, Charity feels obligated to come to Marissa's defense. Charity resolves to prove Marissa's innocence, especially since the body has never been found. She believes that Reverend James Tyson II, the eldest offspring of the Tyson dynasty and the heir of millions, simply abandoned his naive wife in pursuit of greener pastures. But without any tangible evidence, her supposition is like the wind it's stirring but invisible and therefore useless. Never one to back down from a fight, Charity searches relentlessly and eventually stumbles upon some persuasive evidence. Unfortunately, before she can expose her findings to the authorities, she makes a thoughtless decision that leaves both her and her friend vulnerable. With only forty-eight hours remaining before the final hearing, Charity scrambles to recover from her costly mistake and save Marissa.
