“More than a memoir—it is a testament to the power of the human nervous system to adapt, survive, and ultimately heal.” —From the Foreword by Stephen Porges, PhD

Born to severely depressed parents, a little girl unknowingly watched as her younger sister lay dying. Her death sets off a series of traumatic events, including abuse, neglect, and medical emergencies, spanning from age three to adulthood.

Green Glitter Girl is a personal story rooted in transformation from the devastating effects of generational trauma. It gives voice to readers seeking their own paths to healing.

Written by a therapist and an energy healer, this book offers a blend of psychological insight and spiritual inspiration. It serves as a reminder of the light we all have within, and the ability of body, mind, and spirit to support our healing, even through the darkest times.

While standing on her grandfather’s porch, Cindy was drawn by her ancestors to discover who she is by learning who they were and where they came from.

As she uncovered her family history with the use of various genealogy databases, she began to piece together the puzzle of her family’s story—from trans-Atlantic migrations and roots in England, the Netherlands, and Germany to the homes and lives built in Virginia, New York, Iowa, and North Carolina. Her quest became a journey across the world.

Standing where they stood, she found connection to them, but she also found questions. Why had they left? Did they find what they hoped for in the new places? Who had they harmed along the way? And what was her role in repairing those relationships on behalf of her ancestors?

Through essays and original photography organized by lineage and location, Cindy weaves together narratives that situate her life within the particular nexus of personal and historical legacies of heartbreak and desire.

For anyone who has sought their own place in the world, Ancestral Landscapes provides a guide for genealogical research and offers grace for what may be found along the way.

Beth Delaney, a nurse struggling with grief and heartbreak, joins a Bible study group in search of healing and connection. ​There, she meets John Beaumont, a successful CEO with a passion for ministry but a longing for deeper fulfillment. ​Together, they embark on a whirlwind romance, navigating family tensions, career challenges, and personal trials. ​

As their love grows, so do the obstacles they face—health crises, false accusations, and heartbreaking losses. Yet, through every storm, Beth and John lean on their faith, discovering the power of forgiveness, prayer, and trust in God’s plan.

Perfect for fans of inspirational romance, Steadfast Love is a moving testament to the strength of love and the hope that shines even in life’s darkest moments. A story of redemption, healing, and unwavering faith. ​

It's 1978, and Jennifer Morgan, a sassy New Yorker, has escaped to the counterculture village of Flanders, Massachusetts. Her peaceful life is disrupted when one of her customers at the Café Galadriel is found dead.  Everyone is a suspect—including the gentle artisan woodworker, the Yeats-wannabe poet, the town's anti-war hero, the peace-loving Episcopalian minister, and the local organic farmer who can hold a grudge.

Concern for her community prompts Jennifer to investigate the murder with the sometimes-reluctant help of Ford McDermott, a young police officer. Little does she know that the solution lies in the hidden past.

Part of the Solution blends snappy dialogue, unconventional settings, and a classic oldies soundtrack, capturing the essence of a traditional whodunnit in a counterculture era. ​

After the Allied D-Day landings in June 1944, Paris was liberated in late August, and the rest of France was freed in the following weeks. However, two pockets of German occupation in Royan and La Rochelle, both cities along the Atlantic coast, remained occupied for several months more.

Blocking access to Bordeaux, the city of Royan would end in martyrdom under a carpet of Allied bombs on January 5, 1945. But the fortress of La Rochelle, with its port, submarine base, and German garrison of 14,000 soldiers guarding the historic city and its 30,000 civilians, would later be delivered intact to Allied forces by its occupier.

By what perilous negotiations were two enemy officers able to avoid disaster in the besieged city? Two men of honor, French Commander Hubert Meyer and German Admiral Ernst Schirlitz, strove to see beyond the war toward reconciliation and the reconstruction of Europe.

Korvo, Merin, Bryce, and Tiernan have permission to open a school for Magics in Kaybrum, but the work is only beginning. The right to learn didn’t come with books or teachers or funding, and putting a school where a correctional facility used to be brings its own challenges and trauma.

The more they learn about the Refuge, the more atrocities they discover. When Bryce finds a grave on the property, Korvo is pushed to his limits. Aer is gone, and the man behind it all, the General, is still out there. Craving justice and revenge, Korvo leaves to hunt down the General. Without Korvo to lead the school, Bryce and Merin must step up and care for all the students still grappling with their newly tolerated magic.

As their found family spreads across the continent, they’ll have to learn to be as strong individually as they are together before the progress they’ve made slips away. But the continent has been fighting for years, and all-out-war is one misstep away.
