He’s a hacker. A high-tech hitman. And now…a daddy? When Matteo skips prison with a clean record, his conscience is anything but. Guilt hits him like a sack of marbles when he spots the woman he jilted. The clincher? Her child who looks like him. Renee’s son may have Matteo’s eyes, but she won’t say who fathered AJ. She’s also mum on what sent her into hiding or why guys with guns are after her. But when Matteo blocks an attack, he persuades Renee to appoint him their protector. Keeping them safe means faking they’re a normal family road tripping with s’mores and snuggles and possibly a sniper rifle. Toss in a potty-training toddler and temptation from the woman he still craves, and it’s officially Matteo’s toughest mission. But with danger nipping their heels, the only way to save his family may be to leave their lives for good.

The Missing Presence, written as a conflict of terms, not in the opinion of this author. For centuries, Christian churches throughout the world have examined scripture and argued the meaning of Christ's words at the Last Supper. Many religious organizations believe that references to sharing the bread and wine were symbolic, not indicative of a continuing sacrifice or sustained presence. Others, like the Catholic Church, teach Christ is a real living presence. To Catholics, the actions of the Last Supper provided a physical manna from which love and hope unite them with Jesus Christ every day of their human existence. Is this concept shared by others? Could it be others also recognize the Real Presence but not in a positive light? The author has prepared a story, a murder mystery, in which varying Christian beliefs of all denominations are brought into question. Its plot engages not only the mind but also the soul of the reader. Solving the whodunit may be the challenge for an investigative mind, but to the author, the crime is not the real agenda. Examine the characters! Can you find someone or some personality you recognize or relate to? The real mystery is to understand the difference between fiction and nonfiction. Did this murder really happen? Do the characters really exist? Are the actions and attitudes of the contributing characters reflective of today's world? In your opinion, if this murder did happen, would the real-life characters play their role as written? In the end, it is you, the reader, who will solve the mystery. For the author, the real mystery to be solved is this: why do so many believers in Jesus Christ fail to recognize His presence while others who are nonbelievers have no problem seeing Him?

The Sainted is an account as old as time itself. The story takes the reader through the journey of one young man, Chris Pella, who will need to face the ultimate test; good versus evil. The Sainted opens with the birth of St. Agnes of Montepulciano and how she came into the world. Incidents and stories of her life and the lives of many saints are woven throughout the book. The saints tell Chris of the sacrifices, torments, love and evil and how these occurrences have meaning in our hero’s life. All in all, Chris Pella grows into a happy, well adjusted typical fourteen-year-old except for one thing. He can communicate with the Saints. It all started with Chris’s first vision where he is transported to Cilicia in the 4th century AD. There he meets Sts. Cosmas and Damian, doctors and twin brothers, who perform a miracle, bring Chris to a gathering of saints and tell him of his purpose in life. For the next few years Chris has numerous visions of saints who help him understand the faith that guides them. He views their miracles and the saints teach the young man what is expected of him. Chris carries this secret and it is only when the granddaughter of his close friend goes missing, that Chris realizes he will need to confront the hellish malevolence and come to terms with his purpose in life.
