The Portable Pastor


Book Description

From the diary of Reverend Levi Mars comes this true and revealing story of a man who finally found himself and his purpose in life. After becoming an Ordained Minister, his superiors moved him from one problem church to another. He is amazed to learn how some of his church members live. He is confronted with problems he never dreamed could exist, but amid all the adversity, Reverend Mars experiences blessings almost beyond belief. The story is not simply a religious one, it is also a revelation of life itself. It is a story that will bring laughter as well as tears. The Portable Pastor story is supplemented with short stories, award-winning poetry, and a sampling of weekly newspaper articles written over the years by Jasper Cook. The articles were selected at random, and reveal a rare look at life in the early twentieth century.




Rupert's Journey


Book Description

Rupert's Journey is a curious tale about a purported adventure experienced by one Rupert Michael. By all appearances Mr. Michael does not claim this to be a work of fiction. Certainly something happened to the once unpleasant Mr. Michael, so that he did seem to change for the better. If Rupert Michael is a name invented by the actual author, his or her true identity is not now known. All of this said, Rupert's Journey has its own unique charm and is reminiscent at times of Gulliver's Travels and Alice in Wonderland. Some might call it a tightly written work, while others might say that it lacks somewhat in volume. If you are short on time or are in the mood for a relatively brief adventure story, Rupert's Journey might well be just what you are looking for. There is much within these pages that will appeal to a younger audience, or those who believe it is better to grow up than to grow old.

Her Vampire Lord And Alpha King


Book Description

“You dare to think of another man in my presence?” The Alpha growled with a burning desire in his eyes. He glowered at Lavinia whose hands were tied. “What does that man have that I don’t? That filthy vampire, you think he’s going to save you?” His hands ran through her bare skin, sending shivers to her spine. “Please, leave me alone,” Lavinia begged in desperation. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Then be mine, Lavinia.” He leaned closer to her. His breath fanned her face. “I’ll make you the happiest woman alive.” Lavinia shook her head. She pursed her lips while watching the man in front of her. He may be a great man with power but her heart longed for someone else. “No. You’re not him... You’re not Sebastian.” "We had an unspoken deal: He gave me warmth, colors, and lies. In return, he asked for my blood when he's thirsty, my body when he's cold and my heart when he's bored. The funny part is, I still think it's quite a bargain." - Lavinia.
