Here is the story of David as you have never heard it before: from the king himself, telling the unofficial version, the one he never allowed his court scribes to recount. In his mind, history is written to praise the victorious—but at the last stretch of his illustrious life, he feels an irresistible urge to tell the truth. In the first volume, Rise to Power, David gives you a fascinating account of his early years, culminating with a tribal coronation. Rooted in ancient lore, his is a surprisingly modern memoir.

In an era of cruelty, when destroying the enemy is deemed a sacred directive, the slayer of Goliath finds a way to become larger than life. His search for a path to power leads him in ways that are, at times, scandalous. Notorious for his contradictions, David is seen by others as a gifted court entertainer, a successful captain in Saul’s army, a cunning fugitive, a traitor leading a gang of felons, and a ruthless raider of neighboring towns who leaves no witnesses behind.

How does he see himself, during this first phase of his life? With his hands stained with blood, can he find an inner balance between conflicting drives: his ambition for the crown, his determination to survive the conflict with Saul, and his longing for purity, for a touch of the divine, as expressed so lyrically in his psalms and music?

There’s only one way to play a burning piano, as though each note may be your last.

In the face of death Milton will finally learn to give himself completely to life and it will take the seduction of a whole city by a foreign troupe of carnival misfits to bring it all burning down. Folk will dance in the devils playground where the line between the righteous and the corrupt is obscured by sand and sawdust.

It was like snatching at smoke to imagine where it had all started for Milton; the world had felt smaller then. Before enigmatic Coney Island impresario Harry Bailey arrived on the docks with his French Roma carnival folk in tow. Before he learned a lie about the truth.

Eden Park opens its massive grinning gates for the first time. Eighty-thousand coloured globes light up the seaside town of Fareham like never before. Provocative music, bizarre animals, exotic women, freak shows and vaudevillian marvels herald a new era of escape to the multitudes. But here’s the rub, the carnival also harbors a darker culture that promises to satisfy clientele of a more debauched nature. Illicit alcohol, gamblers, prostitution, drugs and organised crime permeate the soft underbelly of the town.

This is the story of a city balancing on a knife’s edge of tension. Only when the fog lifts and the smoke clears will they be able to see the damage done.

This is a steamy romance, and contains explicit sex scenes.

Garden City, Kansas, 1888.

A small Western town receives an early Christmas present; a new pastor for the church. He’s young, handsome, and single. But to church organist Kristina Heitschmidt, Reverend Cody Williams is nothing but trouble. Especially as his first move is to attempt to take control of the music away from her. But Kristina is not about to give up her life’s work.

With Christmas fast approaching, it appears the two are at a stalemate. That is, until a sudden blizzard traps them together in the church overnight. Forced at last to deal with each other, they realize that the explosive feelings between them are really symptoms of an overwhelming passion that just might, if they can finally be honest, lead to the love of a lifetime.

About the Author
As a boy, I read a story entitled The October Game by Ray Bradbury in an Alfred Hitchcock anthology paperback. That story not only chilled me to the bone, but it inspired me to write horror stories of my own. I submitted my first short story, Black As Night, to my high school English teacher. Knowing she hated scary stories and would be grading it for the next day’s class at night, I included the following note at the end of the story for additional effect, “Now, Mrs. Tisinger, as you sit streaking my paper with scarlet, someone could be watching you through the window. Are you alone?”.
From those humble beginnings, I have written 129 short stories, mostly horror, with surprise endings. I’ve published seven collections of scary stories and I’m working on #8. I’ve seen more movies than anyone I’ve ever known and enjoy most genres, but a good horror film has always been my favorite. My dream would be to see some of my stories in a movie or a TV show. My videos have over 1,800,000 hits on You Tube.

After a horrific accident that killed her mother and left her sister in a wheelchair, Angela Tilson dropped out of college to care for her remaining family.

But her father wasn’t faring well. Between his binge drinking and gambling, he didn’t have much time or energy left for his daughters. When threats started coming in, demanding payment for the debts he’d racked up, he took off, leaving the two girls to fend for themselves.

Several months later, Angela receives a call that changes their lives forever. The call closes the door on their father’s disappearance, but sets in motion a new set of dangers and complications, including the powerful, and mysteriously connected fashion mogul, Antonio Mancini.

When Angela accepts the new challenges before her, she must battle her growing attraction for Antonio, and conquer her own fears and secrets. The stakes are high – she and her sister could lose everything if she doesn’t follow the rules to this game he’s set up.
