At the turn of the 20th century, Elli Korpela boarded The Baltic as a mail order bride. But the threat she thought she was escaping somehow followed her to America . . . Escaping a forced engagement, Elli sought refuge in an arranged, mail-order marriage. Her betrothed is a Texan named Nathan White. As she glimpses her future husband and his darling niece at the train station, she instantly knows her risk will prove the best decision she's ever made. Nathan White never took an interest in marriage until he became the guardian of four-year-old Hannah. He’s arranged a mail order wife to love and care for his orphaned niece. But his mind changes when he first sees the beautiful Elli Korpela. After a glorious wedding ceremony in the gardens of a place called Butterfly Palace—the grandest estate Elli's ever seen—a peaceful beginning takes a disquieting turn. An intruder brutally attacks Elli. Nathan intervenes, but the devil escapes unidentified, leaving Elli to face two chilling possibilities: either the attack was arranged by strike workers in Nathan's employ or her shadowy past followed her across the sea. As the danger mounts, Elli and Nathan must face their enemy together, fighting for their newfound marriage—and for their lives.

Download or read book A Texas Bluebonnet written by David Murphy and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christened Claudia Alta Taylor when she was born in a country mansion near Karnack, Texas, she received her nickname "Lady Bird" as a small child; and as Lady Bird she is known and loved throughout America today. Perhaps that name was prophetic, as there has seldom been a First Lady so attuned to nature and the importance of conserving the environment. "Bird" was President Lyndon Johnson's partner, confidante, and helpmate. She helped to keep his Congressional office open during World War II when he volunteered for naval service; and in 1955, when he had a severe heart attack, she helped his staff to keep things running smoothly until he could return to his post as Majority Leader of the Senate. He once remarked that voters "would happily have elected her over me". She created a First Lady's Committee for a More Beautiful Capital, then expanded her program to include the entire nation. She took a highly active part in her husband's war-on-poverty program, especially the Head Start project for pre-school children. This book traces Lady Bird's life in a lively, informative and entertaining manner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captain Tom Duncan is on the way up as an expert targeteer for the United States military. Unlike many of his peers, Duncan has an almost preternatural feel for the world at war. He's able to plan strategic campaigns, identify the enemy's critical weaknesses, and exploit vulnerabilities faster than the competition-which makes him a shoe-in for a promotion. Soon, he could become a major or maybe even colonel. As Duncan's military dreams come true, his eyes are opened to the monstrous ways of his own government at war, and he's sickened by the unnecessary violence. When the enemy escalates with the introduction of chemical munitions against civilians, Duncan's boss wants to make an example-by which he means the use of weapons of mass destruction, otherwise known as nukes. Duncan knows there's no coming back from WMDs. In order to make a point without bloody consequence, Duncan arranges for a clean, efficient attack-an attack that goes horribly wrong. To his utmost regret, it's not the enemy but friendly civilians and American military personnel who suffer. So begins a battle between the state of Texas and the United States government ... but whose side will Duncan choose?
