Moral Vengeance
Rod Haberer
About the Book
The Persian Gulf island nation of Bahrain is flattened, and the U.S. Fifth Fleet Headquarters destroyed, when a nuclear bomb detonates.
An Iranian Sheik announces he is responsible – that a now fully nuclear armed Iran should be given credit for driving away the “Great Satan.”
How the U.S. responds to this attack creates a showdown between a militant White House and those who want a more measured response.
MORAL VENGEANCE provides an unsettling look at the strengths and weaknesses of what could be America’s next challenge.About the Author

She accepted a transfer, which satisfied her longing to move back home to Charleston, South Carolina.Oleather and Marvin Kenyatta worked together on mutual projects at a firm in Houston, Texas. On her last day at the office, Marvin entered the building just at the right time and offers to help Oleather with her boxes. That day, an emotional connection between Oleather and Marvin surged; it was pure chemistry. They kept in touch and their frequent phone conversations developed into a long distance relationship. But could it work?
Like Oleather, Marvin was ambitious, and searching for true happiness, love and great sex. He was young, smart, handsome, and had a great body. He was a brother envied by other brothers and women lusted to be in his arms.
After his close encounter with Oleather, he listened to his heart! He realized that a man doesn’t have to spend enormous amounts of time with a woman to breed closeness and connection. But could their zest for life coupled with their quest to make it happen, prove love can conquer all and give them their hearts’ desires?
Only time would tell if their love could endure the temptation of other people in their lives and those lonely days and nights spent apart.

The Silver Mountain Dreams of Love
Rufus Yates
About the Book
After a few friends asked what happened to Will and Josh? Did they get married or what? I said well I never really thought about it but, there is room for more than The Silver Mountain. So I added some love and romance with a little adventure and laughs along with some old fashioned tearful moments.About the Author
Stories from my life adventure in my mind and from other sources I have come across in my life. I find it harder to do the things I’m use to as I age so writing is a way of living in other worlds and live in your dreams. I have discovered the world of the web, where most anyone can find anything if they want to. I hope I can put a few smiles on a few faces with my wit and imagination for a while.
