The worst things in life always begin with a phone call.
When a young homeless
woman is snatched from the streets of Portland, Oregon, she has time to make
one terrified call to her uncle Lenny in tiny LonePine, Wyoming. A
way-off-the-grid survivalist and paranoid conspiracy theorist, Lenny turns to
his best friend Tucker for help. But Tucker's got his own problems, including a
vampire girlfriend.
A perpetually broke,
down-on-his-luck cowboy, Tucker has fallen hard for Lizzie, a whip smart, big
city girl and hotshot reporter. To everyone's surprise in LonePine (all 438 of
them), she's fallen hard for him too.
Their unlikely love is
central to The Cowboy and the Vampire: A Darkly Romantic Mystery when
Lizzie finds out the awful truth about her heritage. Tucker, with a little help
from his Dad, Lenny and an overly-sensitive cow dog named Rex, take on Lizzie's
maniacal vampire father and his beautiful consort Elita. It's a blood-spattered
undead apocalypse of terror and tumbleweeds.
In Blood and Whiskey,
the second book in The Cowboy and Vampire Thriller Series, Tucker,
Lizzie and the rest of the gang are back with a vengeance. Lizzie is pregnant,
with a growing, unquenchable thirst for human blood and trouble on the horizon.
The most powerful vampires from the ruling clans are headed to LonePine to test
her new powers. If they find her lacking, Lizzie, her growing baby, and all of
LonePine will be destroyed -- not that it would take very long.
It's an inconvenient time
for Tucker to take a road trip, but sometimes friendship trumps common sense.
With a duffle bag of improvised weapons, he sets out for Portland with Lenny to
find the kidnapped girl. They end up in remote Plush, Oregon, where -- smack
dab in the middle of the sagebrush desert -- they uncover a human blood farm run
by a fearsome cowboy enemy resurrected from the Old West. His name is Henry
Plummer and his sights are set on Lizzie.
As the truth about what
they have uncovered dawns on Tucker and Lenny, they rush back to LonePine. The
Vampire illuminati have already arrived, including Rurik, a handsome Russian
vampire angling to take Tucker's place next to Lizzie.
How far will Lizzie and
Tucker go to protect their unlikely love? Can a cowboy and a vampire ever hope
to find happiness?
Blood and Whiskey
is a story of love,
loyalty, loss and sacrifice in the modern American West. With meditations on
the nature of good and evil, a new cosmology for vampires -- including a
meta-consciousness where vampire (and human) minds reside between deaths -- and
a cast of gritty, quirky, realistic western characters, Blood and Whiskey
tangles the vampire and cowboy myths into a groundbreaking new "modern
gothic western" genre.

How far would you go to help a close friend? Is there a place where you might draw the line and simply have to say no?
Eight women. Four decades of friendship. One unimaginable request.
Where can you find a story about friendship, laughter and the good things in life that also touches on alcoholism, infidelity, porn addiction, illness and grief? For many women, it's often within their own circle of friends. Whether your BFFs are in their twenties or are seniors, everyone has a story.
The Bridge Club reminds us of the complexities of women’s friendships through an entertaining and often moving tale of eight women whose lives intersect once a month initially to play the game of bridge. What began as one night turns into four decades that span the segments of a woman's journey from youthful optimism to embracing the challenges and opportunities presented in life's later years.
Based loosely on the author’s own bridge club, the story weaves the reader through a maze of life's inevitable scenarios.
This is a novel for anyone who values friendship. Not simply the "Hi, how are you?" type of friendship but rather the kind that weathers all sorts of storms, unselfishly celebrates triumphs, and hums along year after year with never an unkind word. It does exist.
If you have such a friendship in your life you will relate to the women in The Bridge Club. If you don't, perhaps the story will inspire you to search for it.
Throughout the story each of the characters faces challenges and change in her life. The Bridge Club emphasizes how honest and loyal friendship helped to enable these changes and how these women empowered and learned from each other in the process.
Through laughter, tears, and everything in between the story meets life head on and affirms that building a strong foundation of friendship is a priceless asset.

THE END IS ONLY THE BEGINNING
On the eve of winter Solstice, a massive flash envelopes the Earth and then there is nothing. The sun no longer shines and civilization is plunged into unending darkness. Those exposed to the mysterious flash have changed—they have become bloodthirsty, cunning, and determined to devour anyone who is not infected.
They are Ragers.
In Sweden, uneasy travelers Tomas an architect, his young son, Christopher, and university student Melanie, hear a broken broadcast. There is hope. Something called Sanctuary waits, but it is thousands of miles away, somewhere on the shores of the British Isles.
Meanwhile, in a London supermarket, Stu, a high school English teacher from the States finds himself stranded along with a handful of students on a senior trip. Outside, hoards of hungry Ragers await, ready to tear them limb from limb. Their only hope is to find Sanctuary.
Solstice is a tale of hope, terror, survival, and finding love at the end of the World.
