A comical, fantastical and witty re-imagining of the Tudor world, perfect for fans of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Lady Jane Grey, sixteen, is about to be married to a total stranger – and caught up in an insidious plot to rob her cousin, King Edward, of his throne. But that’s the least of Jane’s problems. She’s about to become Queen of England. Like that could go wrong.

Living only until her execution at age 17, and ruling England for less than two weeks, Lady Jane Grey is still remembered for her intelligence and steadfast defense of the gospel. Declared by the dying (Protestant) King Edward as his successor to the throne- -instead of his half-sister Mary, as his father's will decreed - -his quick decision caused confusion for Jane's succession, which was quickly overcome by Mary's gathering forces and Naval support.This fascinating children's biography features full-page original illustrations, photographs of places she lived, and easy-to-understand text that conveys the gospel-values that Lady Jane held dear. The biography is based on documented facts and avoids the unsubstantiated myths that have woven themselves around Jane (such as the story of the cruel parents).Finalist at the 2013 San Diego Awards Association

Currently being packaged as a feature film in Los Angeles.A gripping page turner, tells the true story of a female war hero in our American History! In the writing style of Best Selling Author Lee Child and the immersive historical action of great epic love stories like, The Titanic, Dances With Wolves, and Outlander.Marines love to get mail. Good old U.S. Post mail. Handwritten. 2003 is the year that Sergeant Leah Ann Sullivan learns about one hell of a story from her past in a series of letters, sent from her grandmother. The letters help ease her routine in the grueling Iraqi desert at her 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, just south of Fallujah, Iraq.Leah never knew she had such history in her family. The story brings her back to another time. A time when the country was undiscovered and her ancestors had to protect Fort Henry and their colony in the Ohio Valley in the 1700's.Betty Zane was the girl described in the story, who had to grow up fast on the frontier. She was raised by her brothers. Her older brother, Colonel Ebenezer Zane, taught her how to protect herself, use her instincts, and shoot a long rifle. Then, Betty fell in love with an exciting young man. Their love was immediate and deep. She never stopped loving him, even when she was forced to go to school in Philadelphia. All she wanted to do was to come home and marry Zach Van Swearingham. He was becoming a man. Passionate and bold like her. He was helping her brothers transform Fort Henry into Zanesville. She had to find a way back him.But the ruthless Shawnee Warrior with the scar on his brow was out to take everything from the Zanes. He found his opportunity with the British Captain Pratt and the American traitor George Girty. They were just as determined. They conspired to take down the Zanes and Fort Henry.But they threatened the wrong girl. A girl who was becoming a woman, who loved her man and her country, and would do anything to save them.The true story of her ancestors stir something within Sergeant Leah Ann Sullivan at just the right time. Her Captain orders her to lead a mission. A “Red Eye Op.” Now it is her turn to protect her country. She is about to find out just how damn tough she is. Leah is about to embark on her own journey of self-discovery and intestinal fortitude, and high risk in the dark of the Iraqi desert.Enter the dark with Leah, into the pitch black night with a team of Marines. An "edge of your seat thriller" Two heroes linked by generations. Two daring missions. A true story, about a female warrior in the past that will forever change who this Marine warrior is in the present.Review: 5 stars! Inspiring book about two strong women seperated by generations. Connected by blood, courage and spirit! Great Read! I love historical fiction and while I’ve read many military history books I’ve never read a military historical fiction based title. The book intertwines a connection between two strong women who bravely fought for the stars and stripes in very different times. The war of independence and Gulf war one. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the colonial side of the book more than Leah’s Iraq deployment. Her arc was engaging and enjoyable so don’t get me wrong. Betty’s story arc tied the whole thing together of course. An amazing woman to say the least. Pratt was a great antagonist that really brought the tension of the time to life. Linn was another key ingredient (I’m a huge Jeb Stewart fan so I love reading about scouts). Lastly I was very impressed with the writers ability to bring the terrain and natural state to life. You must have spent many hours in the woods to write in such a descriptive fashion!
