Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 1987, forty-five years after Japan conquered New Zealand, and the brutal shackles of the occupation have loosened a little: English can be spoken by natives in the home, and twenty-year-old Business English teacher Chris Ipswitch has a job at the Wellington Language Academy. But even Chris and his famous older brother—the Night Train, a retired Pan-Asian sumo champion—cannot stay out of the conflict between the Imperial Japanese Army and the Free New Zealand movement. When Chris takes it upon himself to investigate a terrible crime, he is drawn into the heart of the struggle for freedom, guided along the way by the mysterious Hitomi Kurosawa and the ghost of Kiwi rock 'n' roll legend and martyr Johnny Lennon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jenny McNaughton is like his sister, right? So why is he having all these feelings toward her that could get him killed if her brothers knew what was going on in his head? Gary Cortlin lost his dad when he was ten years old. When he and his mother moved to Centerville, Texas, to live with his grandfather, the only thing that saved his sanity and truly his future well-being was his attachment to Ben McNaughton and his family. Ben is the current owner of the big cattle ranch in Leon County, Texas, called The McNaughton. It has been in the family for over 150 years, first settled by Ben's Scottish ancestors and passed down to him with a lot of tradition and family loyalty included. The man is a widower and single parent of two sons and a daughter, with friends describing him as a man who holds to old-fashioned values, a hard worker, and a strict but loving parent. He doesn't have much time for anything except his family and the ranch, but when he meets pretty Dee Cortlin and her son, something is reawakened that he had thought was long since dead. But old habits die hard and change is not easy for him, especially since he still loves his wife with all his heart. Ben's kids have grown up learning the cowboy way of life from experts and know what it means to work hard and take responsibility. They're good kids but they "ain't" easy. In the end, however, it's all about family, living, and loving under the Texas sun.
