An American Song

Author: Jeffy C. Edie

Genre: Political Inspirational Fiction
Length: 470 pages
Release Date: May 30, 2015
ISBN-13: 978-1511837972

Book Description:

The American Dream is something more than just financial success. What is the real American Dream? A true patriot recognizes the faults in the land they love, and tries to change it for the better, even when opposed by those in power that do not embrace change. “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, does not necessarily mean, the pursuit of money.”

Throughout the history of the wars of the USA, working class American's of faith, for generations, have been called upon to do the real and dangerous work of war in combat. This story is about one of those American working families of faith, and the effects of the wars of the USA on this family through four generations.

The old Irish slogan, “A rich mans war, but a poor mans fight.” still rings true today.

Author: Kira Adams

Release Date: 06/05/15

Summary from Goodreads:

The Monster.

In one moment, my entire life was ripped away from me. I ignored the warning signs until it was too late. Until I became the victim.

He took my life away from me; my freedom, my courage. I've lived my life in debilitating fear since that fateful day.

The Savior.

He was there the day it all went down, and he's been by my side ever since. He's been the only thing that's kept me going.

He's my best friend, but he wants more. I'm terrified to lose him. I'm terrified he'll leave.

One tried to kill me.

One brought me back to life.

I'll never be the same person again--that girl died when the match was dropped. Too much has already been stolen from me.

It's time to take back what's mine.

Book Blitz & Giveaway - RegenerationX by Ellison Blackburn

RegenerationX

Author: Ellison Blackburn

Book Description:

To be or to have been …

If Charlotte Rhys Fenn could do it all over, knowing what she knows now, she would be different.

Charley leads a comfortable life with her best friend and perfect match, Michael, a man with whom she shares two lovely pet children (canine and feline), and a home in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. She’s fortunate to have a caring and supportive family, and two amazing friends, Inez and Becks. Professionally, she holds a secure position as editor of a respected healthcare magazine. Her life is settled, as is her future.

Acquiring this existence of hers hadn't been easy. For at least twenty years she felt like a wind-up toy, methodically following preprogrammed rules—step one ... step two. She even imagined herself as a minuscule, but essential, cog inside a big machine with the mechanical brain. No matter what she tells herself, it hasn’t helped since another thought flutters through her mind as frequently: Going through the motions is the same as coasting toward nothingness.

It is 2025, the time is right. Technology, in a rapidly advancing world, makes it possible to reimagine the future by recreating the past or, more aptly, by creating another past.

Charley must either embrace her well-earned, sedate lifestyle, or invite a change that could alter her future irreversibly. It's a difficult decision, one that could destroy all she has endeavored for, turning their life not only upside down, but backwards, forwards, and inside out.
