Thank you Kileoli for your patience and kind assistance!

Good binoculars in the hands of a motivated, observant man help. He does indeed seem drawn. More to come soon!

Thank you kindly, VBlew. I’m looking forward to readers’ feedback.

Since I could not, for the life of me, figure out where to include acknowledgments, please allow me to do so here... First, I would like to thank Ly for his kind dedication and encouragement in seeing In the Barb through to publication on GA. I’m indebted to Ly for his tireless efforts in beta reading, editing advice, and the magnificent book cover. Finally, my sincerest appreciation for the tremendous amount of patience it took to get this severely technologically challenged writer through the publishing process. In addition, my dear off-site friend Jennifer has offered tremendous encouragement by reading through numerous edits and providing unwavering, heartening support. Thank you for always being my greatest cheerleader. Thank you to all who have continued to show confidence in this project. Your feedback and contributions have been and continue to be invaluable.

Long before the blood dried on the north gate, Two Spirits Horse Ranch had learned that wounded things sometimes found their way home. The ranch sat beneath the wide Montana sky, a place built by Jaciah and Kahlid Longfeather with stubborn hands and open hearts. Folks came for work, for horses, for a hot meal, or simply because the road had taken too much from them. Jake had come that way once. Years later, he knew every sound that belonged to the ranch—the creak of saddle leather

The Montana sky is wide, coffee strong, and wounded souls are never turned away from Two Spirits Horse Ranch. When Jake finds a young stranger left for dead at the north gate, his promise to protect him draws the whole ranch into a fight against fear, memory, and the men who might return to finish what they started. Warm, funny, tender, and suspenseful, In the Barb is a Western romance about found family, survival, and the kind of love that begins as rescue but grows into home.

High in the saddle of his black stallion, the tall, muscular man sat quietly, enjoying the serenity of the landscape. Two songbirds, hidden on a branch of a bent and twisted, aged oak, warbled twitters in refrain as luscious green blades of buffalo grass swayed in a gentle breeze in the warmth of the autumn sun. A cacophony of fluttering wings, sparrows adorned with plumages in hues of red, grey, clay, and brown, danced above. One lone eagle soared majestically through the sky. Sliding his

As A Runner’s Knot shows, one really shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, or rather, a zoo’s security guard by his "WHOOP!" Don't be shy; dive in or, rather, join the run for a fun adventure. Oh, and you might want to bring peanuts!

"ABC, Andy thinks, Assault and Battery Crow." 🤣 Fantastic conclusion with Sean following Andy home. BWOOP!

A sweet story of a school year spent together followed by a summer of discovery. Wonderfully paced charming story.

Inspired by a historical event, A Wolf's Skin explores the 18th-century views of the church and, thereby, society on two sins and the imbalanced judgment on each. Discover the final claimed truth revealed and the results thereof.

As is much of history, it's disturbing how love between two males is considered an unforgivable sin, yet the idea of a human turning into a wolf and consuming a child’s flesh can be forgiven. A story well told.

Trust and believe many of us are wondering the exact same thing. As for news, 9/11 did it for me. Yes, I keep up, but the reality is enough without slants. The thought of the torment felt by those watching from afar is gut-wrenching.

There should be hug thingies on responses. Sending you many warm hugs; my heart ached with this chapter.

Milk slices look like ice cream sandwiches, yum. If those are, I’m curious how she keeps them from melting at school.

Schadenfreude is providing such magnificent glimpses into the window of life shared by Liam and Rick. Poor Liam, so resistant to the birds and bees’ talk. 😄

What a beautiful tribute.

Boundaries can be such a beautiful thing when actually established, that is. In-laws should not have keys unless they call first, and even then, well, don’t freak folks unless you’re expected. *shivers in terror*

I can picture you in a muscle car, the world at large is relieved you are so young. 🤣

Far too young to have experienced the muscle cars of old. Missing those days on the drag.

Curing Humanity is a unique story that looks at both preserving and reclaiming one’s humanity. Will the benefits prove to be greater than the costs?

Ugh, that line had me tied in knots!

The disappearance of Wren’s father is way too suspicious. Does anyone else suspect his brothers? They are, after all, nasty enough. Seriously, the only one with a heart would abandon his family? Nah, don't believe it for a second.

When the stones breathe is a stunning letter memorializing a devastating historical event. When will humans finally choose peace?

Painfully beautiful. That black dog just refuses to stay away, leaving those in the fight feeling exactly like prey. What an amazing gift you have.
