Download or read book LIZZY written by Jim Wetton and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millie Elizabeth Monroe McKeever was fondly known to family and friends as Lizzy. She grew up during the trials and tribulations of a divided America during the 1860s. She was thrown into adulthood with the tragic loss of her mother and was transformed into a woman destined to carry a torch, from the Underground Railroad to women’s suffrage. Always one to take on any quest, Lizzy found the words written by her great-grandmother nearly sixty years earlier, deep in a cedar chest. Those words ignited a drive in her that transcended into the lives of generations to come. Presidents would come and go. Heroes would have their day. Speeches and declarations would be made across the nation. But Lizzy’s journey would be more personal, with a passion for country and family. The costs mounted to the point of breaking, but she did not bend. Lizzy gave all she could, and some would argue she gave too much. But to Lizzy, nothing was too much compared to fulfilling the promise made to her great-grandmother. Her word meant everything to Lizzy, and in the end, it was her word that would change history.

After a terrible storm, the ship is damaged and Billy rescues Barbara. He protects her from the jungle for weeks and they fall in love. In The Return of a Mucker Billy goes back to his old Chicago haunts intending to clear his name. His time with Barbara imbued him with faith in the law and justice.

Book excerpt: Ginny opened the door, her eyes widening at the sight of me. “What are you doing here?” she asked as she stepped out and shut the door. Shit. I’d got it wrong. She was the one blowing me off. “I got that text and it sounded like maybe you thought I was going to blow you off after last night, but now I’m thinking that maybe you’re the one who was doing that to me…” Her jaw dropped. “Look, Ginny. I didn’t spend every minute at the park that I could, watch your kids, admit that story about Liz, and tell you I wanted to hang out today just so I could get laid. I mean, it’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure there are easier ways to do that. You’re not some rebound fuck. I like you. A lot. I think your kids are great. So, no. I’m not blowing you off. Nothing is going to come up.” I took a deep breath. “Unless you want something to come up, in which case, I’ll leave.” She licked her lips nervously and I tried not to think how they’d felt against my skin last night. Around my… “I’m sorry, I…” I smiled and nodded. At least she was being honest and wasn’t going to string me along for two years. I bent and put the drinks and pastries on deck. Her hand on my arm stopped me as I turned to leave. “That’s not what I meant. I meant I’m sorry I had doubts about your intentions this morning. I woke up and in my head, it didn’t make sense.” I frowned. “What didn’t make sense?” “Just you. Wanting me. Why the hell would a gorgeous single guy who could walk into any building in town and walk out with a harem want to be with a widow with two kids?” I started to laugh. “Ok. First of all, a harem sounds exhausting.” She smiled and shrugged. Ginny It’s been three years since I lost my best friend, the love of my life, the father of my children. My life since then has been all about my work and my kids. So when Logan Banks starts hanging around, I try not to think too much about it. I mean, why would he be interested in a single mom when he could have any of the women in this town fawning over him. Logan My entire life, I’ve only ever really wanted one thing. A family like the one I’d grown up with. A woman I love and who loves me back, a couple of kids… At one point, I’d thought I’d found the one who would share those dreams with me, but it all blew up in my face. When I meet Ginny when we move to Granger Springs, I’m not looking for anything more than a friend, but the woman is amazing and the next thing I know, all I can think about is spending time with her. Now, all I need to do is convince her she’s the one I want to share my dream with.

Book excerpt: Once the world was under the authority of a single ruling entity, and a powerful and charismatic leader was elected to be its executive, it was certain that things would change. Unfortunately for humanity, the transformation was not for the better. When the Global Governance Group (GGG) announced its order that no subordinate governing body, company, trade union, organization, or individual could buy or sell without a government issued biochit, it was just another concession for many. For one man however, the implications became all too obvious, and he hatched a plan for the survival of his family and his friends. This narrative is an apocalyptic vision of the future that has at its core the hypothetical question: Could a man take the mark of the beast and still be saved?
