Andy and June are a young couple who fall in love, but have to persuade her mother Andy will be the son she never had. God and the power of prayer versus southern superstitions in this Christian romantic suspense page-turner as the author spins a tale of love, loss, superstition, pain, heartache, and faith in God. Reviewer Kathy Boswell says, “Very good! She never gives up hope that Andy will return to her someday. She puts it all in God’s hands like she’s done every crisis in her life. She knows He will take care of this for her.” Through belief, prayer, hard work, the power of prayer, and God’s help, this powerful, moving story is a thought-provoking novel.June’s mother thinks her college-educated daughter can do better than a strawberry inspector. Worse, her wild beliefs in superstitions appear almost prophetic when an April flood, accidents, Andy missing, and escaped convicts become life obstacles the young couple must face. Can their love survive the obstacle course placed in their path? Will June get the long, winding road she’s always dreamed of? Will love prevail through superstitions, heartache, and pain? June lives for the day Andy will return, but will he?Developed from a prize-winning short story in Southeastern Louisiana University’s fiction-writing competition in 1987.

    Have you ever had a Ragdoll Christmas? I've had my share. A Ragdoll Christmas and Other Short Stories hold precious Christmas memories, though all are not so happy. "The Little Pink Washing Machine" brings back days of happily walking to town with my father, and I treasure those precious memories. It is an excerpt from a work-in-progress, and "Growing up on Fairytales," is a prequel to that same work. Other Christmas stories included as well as stories of growing up in a small town. The book itself is not a book of only Christmas stories, but a book young adults will enjoy that tells the story of a gutsy girl who lost her father at four years old on Christmas Day in Southern small-town America. A Ragdoll Christmas is autobiographical, nonfiction Christmas stories.As we celebrate Christmas this year, let's remember the reason for the season, the birth of Jesus, and understand that while some are happy and celebrating, others may be going through a Ragdoll Christmas. I've had my share, but I'm thankful to God for the precious memories and the lessons learned about life through all the joy, heartache, pain, and sadness. God has His plans, and good comes shining through even in dark situations, though we may not always see it as we're in the midst of the storm. Sometimes, it may be years later, after the storm clouds have dissolved, before we realize our rainbow of blessings.

LaVora Perry ::::Within LeBron James' story are lessons that echo from the years when he and his mother struggled to survive and endure hard choices. These lessons deepened when LeBron's unique basketball skills became apparent, drawing national media attention to him and the small Catholic high school he attended. As he conquered the high school arena and set his sights on the pros, LeBron faced his share of naysayers and skeptics, but he silenced all doubters with his stellar rookie performance during his first NBA season as a multi-million dollar draft pick for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Through it all, LeBron stayed true to himself. Despite phenomenal wealth and fame, the lessons he learned as a young player will hopefully always remain with him, keeping him focused and grounded on his way to perhaps becoming one of the best-and classiest-athletes to ever play the game. ::::ENDORSEMENTS "Robinson.ably demonstrates how other[s].can take lessons from LeBron James' story and apply them to their own lives-whether it's realizing the importance of doing well in school or the challenge of working hard to be the best at whatever one wants to achieve or learning to appreciate the enduring value of family and friends." -Larry E.
