Book excerpt: In the space of a few hours, thirty-year-old Ginger Petrocelli had gone from bride-to-be to bride-who-never-was. So here she sat, alone in her cramped apartment, wedding crinolines askew, drowning her sorrows in a hundred-dollar bottle of Veuve Cliquot, when her doorbell rang. And her trip to hell in a handbasket was about to escalate. At the door: Nick, Ginger’s “first.” Only, he’s a police officer now, and he wants to find out what she knows about her M.I.A. congressman fiancé. When was the last time she’d seen him? She’d better not leave town….And the spiral continues: her cozy little sublet (really, she liked having her shower in the kitchen) isabout to be yanked away, and the prestigious little design firm where she works is about to go belly-up. So what’s a girl to do? Her answer, born of desperation: move in with her crazy, widowed mother—who Ginger claims sucks the life force out of every creature within one city block of her—and her grandmother, who spends much of her day engaged in heated arguments with her dead husband. Well, it’s a plan. But bizarrely, as the summer progresses, her eccentric but lovable relatives give her the courage to make choices based on what she wants, not what she wants to avoid.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yes, I know. It's supposed to be the other way around. I'm supposed to have a few screws loose in the head. And, perhaps I do. After all, divorce can really eat at a guy. Plus, I'm with a certifiable lunatic. Seriously! No joke. She's a pathological lying lunatic. Yes, she saved my house from burning down, and she's a damn good electrician, fixing the fried outlet. She's also as hot as Hell. I can take her anywhere and be proud of the fact she's on my arm. I even took her to Easter Sunday dinner, just to save face. Okay, backtrack. Did you read the part of her being a lunatic? Did I also mention I did not have sex with her, yet she's claiming she's pregnant with my kid? My brother, the Sheriff, and my sister-in-law, our town's mayor, are going to kill me if I can't fix this. I'm trying to fix this. It's simply not working in my favor. And, I'm sure it's in their right to castrate me. They say I'm screwing up, royally, ever since the divorce. Yet, my ex-wife is making certain of this, plastering my face across the front page news on a daily basis. Heck! I'm making certain of screwing up just by breathing. Therefore, what are a few loose screws? I'm in enough trouble. I might as well make this trouble worth it...and a little bit of fun. The lunatic is certainly game to my woes.

Download or read book Held by the Hand of God written by Joe Laws and published by True Blue Press LLC. This book was released on 2013-12-23 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It’s just not your time yet, Little Joe…” Joe Laws is a man used to fixing things. After all, he’s fixed robots, water pumps, conveyors, and just about everything else that needs fixing at the automotive facility where he works. But when on July 17, 2011 a fall from the roof left his body broken and bleeding, even Joe knew it was beyond repair. He also knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that he had died. It was a safe assumption, considering the extent of his injuries. The left side of his body was completely crushed; his back, neck, collarbone, and eleven of his ribs were broken. His lungs had collapsed and his heart had stopped. And, as the doctors of Vanderbilt University Medical Center would soon learn, he was in complete hemorrhagic shock, meaning that he had essentially bled to death from a ruptured spleen. As they tried frantically to save Joe’s life, his family prayed fervently that God would spare him. Joe, in the meantime, was on the ride of his life. As he floated away from earth and into the skies above, he saw and felt a large hand cradling him, as a parent would a most beloved child. He knew immediately that he was being held, literally, by the hand of God. He was lifted toward a brilliant light, where he felt a love so powerful and all encompassing that it defied explanation. For what seemed an eternity, he played in “his Heaven”, visited with loved ones and learned about the true meaning of good, evil, and life itself. He rejoiced at being “home”, until God delivered the devastating news that he was going back into his body. It was not his time. As it turned out, Dr. Richard Miller, Chief of Vanderbilt’s Trauma Unit, agreed. During a dangerous, five-hour surgery, Dr. Miller would use a revolutionary method—and titanium strips-- to secure Joe’s crushed ribcage and save his life. After struggling for two years to recover physically and emotionally from his ordeal, Joe realized he could help others by sharing his experience. Held By the Hand of God is Joe Laws’ incredible story of Heaven, Earth and walking between two worlds.
