Book excerpt: What makes 2nd Lieutenant Phil Larimore’s story special is what happened in World War II’s closing days and the people—and horses—he interacted with in this Forrest Gump-like tale that is emotional, heartbreaking, and inspiring. Growing up in the 1930s in Memphis, Tennessee, Phil Larimore is the ultimate Boy Scout—able to read maps, put a compass to good use, and traverse wild swamps and desolate canyons. His other great skill is riding horses. Phil does poorly in school, however, leading his parents send to him to a military academy. After Pearl Harbor, Phil realizes he is destined for war. Three weeks before his eighteenth birthday, he becomes the youngest candidate to ever graduate from Officer Candidate School (OCS) at Fort Benning, Georgia. Landing on the Anzio beachhead in February 1944, Phil is put in charge of an Ammunition Pioneer Platoon in the 3rd Infantry Division. Their job: deliver ammunition to the frontline foxholes—a dangerous assignment involving regular forays into No Man’s Land. As Phil fights his way up the Italian boot, into Southern France and across the Rhine River into Germany, he is caught up in some of the most intense combat ever. But it’s what happens in the final stages of the war and his homecoming that makes Phil’s story incredibly special and heartwarming. An emotional tale of courage, daring, and heroism, At First Light will remind you of the indomitable human spirit that lives in all of us.

At least the man she’s been writing for the past year is still willing to marry her and take in her siblings… or so she thinks until she arrives in the dusty town of Twin Rivers, Texas.

Download or read book The Cries For Love written by Hubert Temba and published by Booktango. This book was released on 2013-08-14 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book of poems of cries for love. There are many hues and cries in the world. This book is a lamentation, a recording, a stamp of the feeling of mourning and almost despair but also has poetry of passion and romantic love. It is a stamp of what the world is in grips with yesterday, today and tomorrow. Apart from being a lament on the tragedies of the world today, it also explores love. The author revisits romantic love and the enigmas between the sexes. In a non-offensive way, the author presents several poems about the relationships between men and women. Just as the cover shows the pose of a black man and a white woman in an affectionate embrace the author brings the puzzles of not being able to live together peacefully in a world that was created for peace and tranquility by a maker who does not have eyes to treat colors differently but has a sense of love for all. In a universe in which the colors of the rainbow are perfect and the universe is balanced in its galaxies there is a need for replication of that balance in the way humans live on this earth, the cries for love wail. After the cries for love are echoed and after the ripples, the universe still balances itself. The cries for love is a reminder that all the going against the will for love is in vain for in the end, the pilgrimage will not be complete without one love on this earth. In "In The Maker's Sense" the author concludes that in these cries for love we are just pilgrims on this earth as the creator has made it.

When she spots an ad for a wife from the owner of a small ranch on a remote stretch of Texan desert, she knows she’s found the perfect hiding spot. The Wolf Point Ring might be searching far and wide for her, but they wouldn’t think to look in tiny, sun-scorched town of Twin Rivers, Texas. Now if she can just keep her new husband from finding out why she really married him… Agamemnon “Wes” Westin’s feet might be firmly planted in West Texas soil, but his heart is running… Running from the loss of his first wife and stillborn daughter, and running from the fear of suffering loss again. Unfortunately, he has little choice about needing to marry, but he does have a choice about who he marries. If he has to share his roof with someone, he wants a woman who works hard and doesn’t complain. That’s why he decides to run an ad for a bride, claiming that he owns a small ranch, rather than the sprawling cattle empire he inherited from his father. After all, what woman is going to be upset when she finds out her husband is one of the richest men in Texas? When Wes discovers Keely is hiding from criminals who want her dead, he can’t help but protect her—even if she’s irate with him for lying about the size of his ranch. When danger arrives in Twin Rivers, both Wes and Keely find themselves facing their deepest fears. Will they let their pain and past losses ruin their dreams? Or will Wes and Keely find a way to forge a new life together? From jagged mountains and green river valleys, to cattle ranches and vivid sunsets, Tomorrow’s Constant Hope offers a meaningful story about simpler times, sincere faith, and learning to love again after loss.
