My latest book, The Truth About Marty, is now available on Amazon. It is contemporary fiction, and my first full-length novel. My first two books are Three O'Clock and Dusty Dreams.
Book Description, The Truth About Marty
Dr. Tracy Moore is eager to begin practicing as a Christian psychiatrist in her new position at Mountain Vale, a secular mental hospital. Eventually she is assigned to the case of Marty Jamison, a young woman who reportedly attempted to murder her stepfather. The patient is withdrawn and uncooperative, making the case a challenge for Tracy. Matters are made worse by the opposition to her efforts from the nefarious CEO of the hospital, Dr. Peppard. He seems to have sinister objectives regarding Ms. Jamison’s case, as well clear and adamant objections to the leanings of Tracy toward Christian counseling.
When the patient finally begins to reveal her secrets, Tracy discovers things are not necessarily as they were recorded in the attempted murder case. She feels she must alert the police to make sure they have all the facts. As she works with the detective assigned to the case, a relationship develops between them.
The Truth about Marty is a story with a little mystery, a little romance, and a lot of faith, hope and ultimate redemption.
Book Description, Three O'Clock
Bob’s life takes a turn for the better when he finds employment with the Company. But some things about his new employer are unusual, to say the least. For one thing, Bob is hired because the Manager wants to employ him, completely ignoring Bob’s lack of professional credentials. And although there’s wonderful, free food in the cafeteria, real nourishment comes from elsewhere. Bob finds that working for the Company isn’t always plain sailing, but he realizes that as long as he goes to the Manager for help, not only does his work go well, but he gains new skills too. The Manager, now... He’s someone special.
Book Description, Dusty Dreams
Jennifer is thrilled when she and her brother Russell set out with a wagon train to find their dreams of land ownership out west. However, her sense of adventure fades to weary disenchantment as the lush green of the east gives way to the dry and dusty plains of the west. Although the journey at first is bearable, things change for the worse when one of the two horses needed to pull their wagon steps into a hole left by a burrowing varmint. Abandoned on the desolate prairie, they are rescued by an Indian who provides another horse. They arrive in the only nearby town with renewed hope only to find that the town has a most dreadful secret that threatens their very lives. Jennifer’s faith in God is tested severely. Will she stay, or will she take the stagecoach back east where she can rejoin the church fellowship they left behind?
