It's the year punk rock was born, Concorde entered commercial service and a tiny Romanian gymnast changed the sport forever. Archie Blunt is a man with big ideas. He just needs a break for them to be realised. In a bizarre brush with the light-entertainment business, Archie unwittingly saves the life of the UK's top showbiz star, Hank 'Heady' Hendricks', and now dreams of hitting the big-time as a Popular Music Impresario.

Together, they make the finals of a televised Saturday-night talent show, and before they know it, fame and fortune beckon for Archie and The High Five. But there's a complication; a trail of irate Glaswegian bookies, corrupt politicians and a determined Scottish WPC known as The Tank are all on his tail...

Download or read book The Heavenlies written by Stan Nix and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Heavenlies is a story of the third heaven spoken about by Paul. In Christianity, heaven is traditionally the location of the throne of God as well as the holy angels. In most forms of Christianity, heaven is also understood as the abode for the righteous dead in the afterlife, usually a temporary stage before the resurrection of the dead and the saints' return to the New Earth. In 1 Corinthians 2:9, it is stated that no mind can imagine what magnificent things are in store for us there. The author uses many biblical scriptures to back up the fictional stories he created to where one can believe that this may be what it is really like. Christians get new bodies with no infirmities. They have many lost treasures restored, such as friends and relationships. This is a one-of-a-kind book that opens one's eyes about heaven and shows how works on earth did not get one to heaven, but they reap their heavenly rewards from their good works done.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An angel called. A devil answered Princess Charlotte is the sole heir to the kingdom of Paragon. But twenty-five years after she helped vanquish Empress Eleanor, her parents still treat her like a child—and it doesn’t help that her sunny angel disposition makes her easy to overlook. When the king and queen leave Paragon for an extended period, Charlie decides to prove her leadership skills by throwing a party themed around a popular Earth holiday. Environmental scientist Liam Morris doesn’t do relationships or celebrations. In his experience, relationships are nothing but distractions, most of them doomed to fail. Pair that with a celebration… No, thank you. He’d rather spend his days on an iceberg in the Arctic than around a table with his family. Things get complicated when Charlie snatches Liam from Earth and brings him to Paragon, hoping he’ll help her iron out the details of her event. Will grumpy, bearded Liam be the answer to her prayers… or more trouble than she can handle? Here’s what readers are saying about the Treasure of Paragon series: “I haven't read a series this good since Donna Grant's Dragon Kings. It's rare for me to find a series that just pulls me in. This one definitely did that.” – L. Stanford “The nine books by this author and the best!! Ranks right up there with JR Ward and Gena Showalter. The characters and plot twists make them difficult to put down!” - A. Zdunski “This series has just the right mix of sexy shifters, drama, and steam.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How Like an Angel is a powerfully imagined, lyrically wrought novel, overflowing with the senses. Jack Driscoll is a marvel." ---Rick Bass "How Like an Angel is a lyrical, lonely ode to fatherhood, an aria in words that looks forward and backward at once. Jack Driscoll is a writer of deep heart, relentless honesty, uncanny gentleness, and irresistible spirit." ---Pam Houston How Like an Angel is the story of Archibald Angel. With his career going nowhere and a marriage in decline, Angel retreats to a rustic cabin in northern Michigan to make a new life for himself. In spite of his forward thinking, Angel's move is in many ways a journey into the past. Besides lacking modern comforts, the cabin conjures the ghost of Angel's troubled childhood, when his undertaker father took the cabin in trade as payment from a widow who couldn't otherwise afford the cost of her husband's burial. After Angel's mother subsequently fled, abandoning her family to recover from a mental breakdown, the cabin was an escape for father and son. While Archibald Angel revisits his knotted and difficult past, his ex-wife and young son contemplate their future. Slowly, with unexpected help from an unpredictable woman, Angel realizes he too must find a way to begin again or risk failing his son as his own father failed him. With pathos, humor, and unflagging generosity of spirit, How Like an Angel takes us deep into the hinterland of the human heart and discovers there the source of the love that keeps us holding on against all odds.

It’s a magical spellbinding place, where all our loved ones have gone before us. In this story/activity book you can also place your loved ones in your chosen garden. I wrote this book as a treasured gift for my granddaughter, Scarlett Rose, after flying from the UK to Australia to help bring her into the world. The heartache I felt on fl ying back home inspired me to put pen to paper and my book began. But it hasn’t been easy. By choice, I had a poor education. At school I was always a huge personality in the playground, but a daydreamer in the classroom. Then it was university – haha! I went to the university of life, where my mother was my number one teacher. Since the beginning, my family has grown and so has my book. It’s been a pleasurable challenge to write. Some days I’ve cried with a great big belly laugh and others I’ve cried with the depth of emotional love I felt deeply from my soul for my family, friends and acquaintances who have inspired the characters in the book. I was soon to hit a huge obstacle with this book: learning to illustrate! But I got there. The most important lesson I have learnt is to believe in yourself, have faith, what’s meant for you in this life doesn’t pass you by. It’s a big world out there, full of wonderful opportunities that are all within reach. So if you’re missing a loved one like myself, don’t let your grievance grow, live your life and be happy with a positive thought: no one is promised a tomorrow, but they say God offers a promises to us all of eternal angelic life in heaven. Read on! Guardian angels In every adult there’s a child, In every child there’s imagination, In imagination there is love, positivity, In mine, I found a magical wonder world — real or nostalgic? For me, I believe it’s true.
