Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ives, Wren and Maverick Gaye’s lives were planned out for them before they were even born. Not just by God, but by their earthly father. Ivory Gaye has headed the largest criminal organization in Memphis for the past twenty years. His iron fist gained fear and respect, while his community involvement gained love. And because of who he is, his daughters are known as royalty. Haze, Cruz, and Quest Humphreys travel all across the United States taking over every cartel that their father, Carl, commands. When these brothers return to Memphis, they expect business to be their priority as usual. That changes the moment they meet the Gaye sisters. As Ivory ages, he stresses more and more the importance of learning the family business, getting degrees in his chosen fields and marrying the men he chose for them all. Marriage in his eyes is a matter of power, wealth and partnership. There is no room for love. Because of this, Ivory makes it his mission to marry his daughters off one by one as they finish college. For all of their lives, the Gaye sisters have grown up under their father’s leadership, control and order – willingly going along with his plans every step of the way. Will the return of the Humphreys brothers be the end of the Gaye’s reign and the beginning of love for all... or will Ivory find a way to make them bow to his rule?

In part one of ‘Loved by a Memphis Hoodlum,’ Ivory commits the worst betrayal of all. Part two picks up with the Gaye sisters dealing with their father’s actions in different ways. For Ives, she’s focused on her life and her man... refusing to let her father cause any more havoc in her life. For Wren, she’s focused on proving to her father that she’s worthy of the throne in Ives’ place. For Maverick, she’s focused on the consistent mental battle of good versus evil. Revenge versus karma. Love and life versus death. Three different sisters, three different reactions and one betrayal, far greater than their father’s, that threatens to pull the family and their relationships with the Humphreys brothers even further apart.

With Nehemiah carrying so many secrets for his father and the church, enemies and threats surface from the most unexpected places, but Nehemiah is willing to go to hell and back to secure the small piece of peace and heaven he’s found in Monroe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With $250 in his pocket, a bicycle, and a pack weighing thirty-seven pounds, author Edward Abair set off for this adventure of a lifetime in 1972. Twenty-seven years old, this teacher and former Army medic bicycled 5,800 miles alone from Long Beach, California, to Miami, Florida, to Boston, Massachusetts. In Discovering the US on a Bicycle, Abair shares a recap of his travels on that trip. He tells how he burned in 110-degree Southwest deserts, crossed the rugged West, ascended the Continental Divide, fed Mississippi mosquitoes, poured sweat in the humid swamplands of the South, and witnessed the devastation of a hurricane in Pennsylvania. On the way, he slept in river washes, abandoned motels, fire stations, jails, a river park with water moccasins, barns, and under porch roofs. Forty years later, Abair kept a promise to travel the northern United States on the Lewis and Clark Trail in reverse from Astoria, Oregon, to St. Louis, Missouri. This time, he used modern equipment and had a wife supporting him in an automobile. At age 68, he tackled the rollercoaster roads of the Missouri River watershed, with painful knees and a sore rear end. With age and experience, he shares observations of finding the people and adventures from small town America to the St. Louis Gateway Arch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From former football star and bestselling author John Ed Bradley comes a searing look at love, life, and football in the face of racial adversity. "Heartbreaking," says Laurie Halse Anderson, author of Speak. Growing up in Louisiana in the late 1960s, Tater Henry has experienced a lot of prejudice. His town is slow to desegregate and slower still to leave behind deep-seated prejudice. Despite the town's sensibilities, Rodney Boulett and his twin sister Angie befriend Tater, and as their friendship grows stronger, Tater and Rodney become an unstoppable force on the football field. That is, until Rodney sees Tater and Angie growing closer, too, and Rodney's world is turned upside down. Teammates, best friends--Rodney's world is threatened by a hate he did not know was inside of him. As the town learns to accept notions like a black quarterback, some changes may be too difficult to accept. "John Ed Bradley skillfully shines a beam of humanity through the prism of the game, revealing to us the full spectrum of its colors, from love to hate, bigotry to tolerance, and devotion to betrayal. Anyone who ever played high school football or loved someone who has should read this book." --Tim Green, retired NFL player and bestselling author
