About Autism Goes to School:
We’re thrilled to announce that this Amazon bestseller is also a B.R.A.G. Medallion winner!
After suddenly receiving custody of his five year old son, Ben must learn how to be a dad. The fact that he’d even fathered a child was news to him. Not only does this mean restructuring his sixty-hour workweek and becoming responsible for another human being, but also Kyle has autism.

Enter the school system and a shaky beginning. Under the guidance of a gifted teacher, Ben and Kyle take tentative steps to becoming father and son.

Teacher Melanie Nicols sees Ben as a deadbeat dad, but grudgingly comes to admire how he hangs in, determined to learn for his son’s sake. Her admiration grows to more as father and son come to rely on Melanie being a part of their lives.

When parents receive the news that their child has autism, they spend countless hours researching the subject, usually at night, after an exhausting day. Teachers, when they hear that they’ll have a student with an autism spectrum disorder, also try to learn as much as they can. This novel was written for such parents and teachers – an entertaining read that offers information on autism and strategies that work.

Bonus Section
At the back of the book are links and references useful to parents and teachers.

What Are Reviewers Saying?
“A gem of a book”

” A true delight – Highly, highly recommended

Just couldn’t put it down”

“Highly informative and extremely helpful – Couldn’t take my eyes off it”

I loved this book from beginning to end – Just plain awesome

I could feel the author’s passion – What a great way to learn about autism

“Entertains, entrances & educates: 3 for the Price of One!”

“This wonderful book is about a Dad, Ben, meeting his autistic son Kyle for the very first time, when Mom dumps him suddenly on his doorstep, saying she can no longer take care of him. Through the eyes of Ben, we get a glimpse of both the challenges and joys of being a parent of a child who sees the world in different ways.”

“Unlike some stories that speak of autistic children, this one brings a wealth of hope and information! As we look over Ben’s shoulder, we see a glimpse of the learning tools currently being used in the classroom today, and we get glimpses of things that could be helpful in the day to day life of an autistic child.”

“I appreciated this story on several levels. First I enjoyed the story of Ben discovering what it means to be a parent, especially a single parent. Second, I enjoyed watching Kyle find his own means of success in this new and upside down world. ”

“I enjoyed the glimpse into classroom life and options available today. Finally I enjoyed the quiet romance between Mel and Ben.”

About In The Blood of the Greeks:
It is the winter of 1942 in the Greek town of Larissa. The peaceful life of the town has given away to the chaos of war. Two girls, one Greek, the other German, come together in an unlikely union to save the lives of Jews targeted by the Nazis. Fourteen year old Zoe Lambros’ faith in God is shattered after her mother’s death at the hands of the German Commander. She determines to defy the enemy in every way she can–including a festering urge to kill the German Commander’s daughter, Eva Muller.

Eva Muller has a tortured past, and a secret, if revealed, will lead to certain death at the hands of her father. Despite knowing the risk, Eva is working with the village priest to help the Jews escape. With her activities closely observed, Eva needs help to continue the clandestine operation. Zoe Lambros is not who Eva has in mind but they have to put aside their mutual antipathy to each other and work together. They know that one wrong move will put an end to their lives.

Do you find reading the newspaper depressing? If so, you may need a different paper, preferably from a different century, like the Lincoln County Leader in Toledo, Oregon, in 1899. The paper was published weekly and included local news such as this item:

“St. Patrick’s day passed quietly in our city, only one altercation taking place. As usual it was whiskey did it. Al Waugh made the assertion that Jack Allphin drank 138 drinks to celebrate the day. Jack denied it and a scrap would have ensued if it had not been that Sam Owen was present. He told Al he was mistaken and told also where the mistake was made in the count and this averted a bloody encounter and the consequent breaking of an old friendship.”

It also included news from around the country and around the world:

“Prospectors who have arrived from Alaska bring news that there are at least 400 prospectors on the Edmonton trail between Dease lake and the Hudson’s Bay post on the Liard river, most of whom are in destitute circumstances. Many of the men are said to be suffering from scurvy and frost bites. The sick cannot receive proper medical attendance and many are dying.”

“The Indians of Paraguay eradicate their eyebrows and eyelashes, saying that they do not wish to look like horses.”

“One is forcibly impressed by the number of blind men seen about the streets of Fez, the capitol of Morocco. It is invariably attributed to the excessive use of coffee.”

About the Author
My husband and I, after living in San Antonio for twenty years and a 32′ fifth wheel for nearly 13 years, moved into a house in Colorado almost a year ago. We like it here very much but still miss the traveling. Galen fills the void with gardening and tending bees and eight very spoiled chickens. I compile books from nineteenth century newspapers. We both play old time acoustic music with a group of friends.

eBook price range: $0.50-$1

About The Stronghold:
A compelling reinvention of the William Tell legend blends myth and fact to craft a compelling historical page-turner full of love, honor, adventure, and revenge

Altdorf, November 1307 and Gessler would have obedience. He hung his hat on the pole at the center of the square, the newly constructed fortifications looming over the populace. Every citizen was ordered to pass the pole and bow as they did so, proving their allegiance, their serfdom. But one man would not bow, would not scrape, would not bend—William Thell. In that moment a legend was born, and a nation found its courage and its honor.

The kindle edition of The Stronghold is only $0.90 for a limited period.

The Earl's Unexpected BrideTargeted Age Group: 16+
Category: Romance

Print book price range: 9.99
eBook price range: 0.99 (normally 2.99)

About The Earl’s Unexpected Bride:
Miss Catherine Thornberry led a quiet life, teaching in the parish school. Until the day that the Earl of Stanningfield knocked her into the river. And then employed her as governess to his niece. It was immediately obvious to both Catherine and the Earl, as their desires overcame them, that they wanted a relationship rather different than that of employer and employee.

There was just one impediment to their romance….. one very large impediment… even more significant than the difference in their stations…

A delightful romance in the tradition of Regency Historical Romance at its best!
This is the first in the Derbyshire Set series, be sure to read all six!
