Download or read book Alaina Marie written by John Henry Branch and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life for a teenaged girl in the western territory of Wyoming in the 1890’s is filled with change. Alaina Marie is torn between the simple life she has grown to love, assisting her father in running a large cattle and horse breeding operation, and assisting her mother, an attorney at law, with a complicated legal case she obligated herself to in San Francisco, California. Little did Alaina know when she boarded the train with her best friend Badger, a grulla stallion, that neither of them would ever reach California. Tragedy along the way would require her to call on the training her father had instilled in her from the time she was a child, exhibit courage she never knew she had, and challenge her to push herself to do the impossible. Somewhere along the way, she became a woman—a woman with a deep sense of right and wrong and a commitment to do everything in her power to make Wyoming Territory a better place to live...even if it cost her life. The amazing adventure of a seventeen-year-old girl traveling hundreds of miles on horseback through the dead of winter, while attempting to avoid a team of murderous men, will keep you riveted to every page.

Book excerpt: Aliana Fagan spent her childhood traveling the world, dreaming of legendary heroes and mythical lands. But after the sudden death of her parents, she hides behind the safety of her camera and her art until a vivid recurring dream compels her to dig into her father's research about Avalon and Camelot. When she is hurled into a magical realm by forces she thought were only the stuff of fairy tales, she finds herself thrown into an adventure she could never have imagined. Nearly everything she thought she knew about Arthurian legend was wrong. The independent eighteen-year-old is shocked to find that the people of Avalon think that she is the Destined One, the only person who can summon King Arthur back to life from his hidden chamber. Most surprising of all is that it's up to her to lead the Knights of the Round Table on an epic quest-an adventure that will transport them across the seven magic realms to reclaim all that has been lost so they can defeat the evil Mordrid for good. But first, she must bring the ancient warriors into her world and reunite them with their lost brothers. Chaperoning the legendary knights-with-a-chivalry-complex as they navigate the modern world is a constant challenge, and she certainly never thought she'd be caught between her intense feelings for the noble Sir Galahad and her growing friendship with the King. To fulfill the prophecy, Aliana will have to discover the meaning of friendship, bravery, loyalty, true love, and forgiveness. But can she do it all in time to save the realms from Mordrid's impending Armageddon?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘‘Football is a team sport, we play together and we win together. Sometimes it can happen that an individual or the defensive line make a mistake and we concede a goal resulting in a lost, it means we lose together, despite the criticism from the commentators or what will come out from the newspapers the day after. There should not be a finger pointing on and off the field, as every mistake should be considered as a team mistake since the game is a collective sport, you play to win and lose together and should always remember to play your hardest until the final whistle..’’ As a kid, you are allowed to dream about anything you want, at least that is what people told you however, in reality, you should probably dream about what is possible. Diego’s dream was to become a professional football player. He was born and grew up in Belvia, a town where playing football was the most realistic situation one could dream of to get out of poverty. With this in mind, he dreams and sets out to become a professional footballer...until a tragedy strikes him and his family, so the alternative options are not too many. Diego, who proved to be mentally strong, respected what life had to offer him, so he tried in every way to take advantage of the opportunity that this game could bring to his family. Football became his passport to a better life; he knew it and worked hard to accomplish this dream. Diego’s character, motivation and love for the game of football can only be described by these few words: “On my fractured legs or bended knees, playing football is and will always be my passion’’. Born in the Caribbean island of Haiti and moved to New Jersey (USA) at an early age, my love and passion for the game was automatically acquired as the Haitian national sport is by miles football. I started to play football ever since I could remember; recreational football and summer neighborhood tournament were the highlight of my childhood. I am grateful of the opportunities I had to play this beautiful game, as well as to participate in its development by coaching and mentoring young players while I was living in Brussels. Nowadays I am happily married, living with my wife and two children and work in Luxembourg City (Luxembourg) in a very different environment than football across the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea where it all started. As life is sometimes full of surprises only time will tell maybe one-day football will call upon my service again and I shall be ready.
