Smiling Blind: A Marriage of Lies and Illusion

Here’s the set-up:
Anyone who grew up reading fairy tales and watching Disney films knows the handsome prince always sweeps in and saves the damsel in distress. Dennis F. Hightower created his own version of those tales, starring himself as the prince. But he forgot one thing — the prince is supposed to follow through with a happily-ever-after. He’s not supposed to decide one day to walk away, leaving the devastation of broken promises and lies behind.
Divorce attorney Dori Bye was definitely not looking to be swept off her feet, but that’s exactly what happened when she met Dennis F. Hightower. He appeared to be charming, gentlemanly, powerful and extremely generous. Their courtship included lavish gifts, travel to Europe and the promise of a lifetime of respect, happiness and true love. The romance was like a fairy tale, and the sky seemed to be the limit for the perfect power couple.
During the four-month relationship prior to marriage, Dennis became the Deputy Secretary of Commerce in the Obama Administration. The couple purchased a dream mansion in Connecticut. Then everything began to fall apart. Smiling blindly, Dori realized she was being groomed to be nothing more than a “Washington wife,” continuously pushed into the background as Dennis used his Black Elite status to gain yet more power.
Then, almost as quickly as the power couple became entwined in their relationship, it started to unravel. Dennis resigned his position to return to private industry and board positions, or so Dori thought. Suddenly the big money started disappearing, or appeared never to have been there in the first place. Their dream home was lost to foreclosure. Exposed with the layers of lies, Dennis lost his charm and charisma, along with his power.
This is a true story of romance, white-collar crime and a short-lived marriage, followed by a pattern of deception culminating in lawsuit upon lawsuit, including bankruptcy, foreclosure and currently one of the longest divorces on record in Connecticut.

“What an amazing book. No one should have to go through a nightmare like that. She did and she’s still standing tall and able to tell others to really look before you jump.” 5 star review

Cash Money: Take It Back 2

by D. Ray Thomas
4.7 stars – 8 reviews
Text-to-Speech and Lending: Enabled
Here’s the set-up:

If you long to see the underprivileged in our society finally win out against the 1%, read Cash Money. It is the second book in the Take It Back series starring Douglas Gage; a man who is equal parts Robin Hood and vigilante, and funny AF. Cash Money is full of riveting action sequences, on the edge of your seat suspense, world class humor, unexpected thrills, and mysterious intrigue.

Douglas Gage has dedicated his life to getting the little guy justice. In Cash Money, a group of corrupt county commissioners use eminent domain to wrestle land away from an innocent family under false circumstances. Gage takes a linebacker’s approach to the case, putting his shoulder down and crashing ahead until he knocks the bad guys on their collective ass. But the criminals quickly get back up and turn the tables on Gage, and he finds himself literally staring down the barrel of a shotgun. The question becomes not if Gage can get the family satisfaction, but if he can even live to see another day.

Douglas Gage is a man you can root for. He gives power to the powerless. He retrieves (most times with interest) what has been stolen from anyone taken advantage of by the powers that be. And Gage isn’t above serving the ultimate punishment if he believes it is the only way to collect true justice. Whether the downtrodden are robbed of their dignity, their treasured belongings, or their money, Gage is of one mind – Take It Back.

Douglas Gage fights for the forgotten. Because no one is going to forget him.

All Will Blackwood ever wanted was a little adventure. A fantasy addict and apprentice contractor in New Orleans who is struggling to make ends meet, he has suffered from terrible panic attacks since the death of his father. Will would give anything to escape to the world of Tolkien, or Hogwarts, or any of the wondrous realms he reads about.

Late one night, his life is changed forever when he and his brothers receive a belated inheritance: a staff with a mysterious stone on top, a pair of rogue’s bracers, and a sword that Will can barely lift. Searching for an explanation, it is not until a strange key whisks the brothers across time and space, into a terrifying version of New Orleans ruled by wizards, that the brothers accept the truth and undergo a perilous journey home. With the help of an alluring but deadly adventuress, they must break into the keep of a sorcerer known for his love of diabolical games, find a trio of enchanted talismans, and somehow defeat an evil wizard who can raise legions of the undead to do his bidding.

It seems Will has found his adventure. But will he live to tell the tale?

Here’s the set-up:

A beautifully descriptive story about love, self-sacrifice and the desperate battle to avoid extinction on a dying world.

A massive cloud of hydrogen is travelling through space on a collision course with Earth.

At a high-ranking meeting two astronomers, Edward and Joseph, are sworn to secrecy when they reveal that in six months’ time, as the gas envelops the planet, it will turn the atmosphere into a fireball.

Their beautiful young prodigy, the resourceful Lauren, is initially kept in the dark, but soon discovers the destination of the cloud when she calculates its route.

Two months before its encounter with Earth, the gas is captured and absorbed by the planet Jupiter. They think they have avoided disaster, but you can be looking the wrong way when the end of the world sneaks up on you.
****
Those by the coast had advanced warning something was wrong when the tide suddenly swept an incalculable distance out to sea. A violent wind followed then, as the air thickened and breathing became difficult, a glow appeared around the horizon.

This was not unusual on a world with two suns, but the speed and intensity with which the light grew was a different matter. It climbed to fill the sky until, further and higher than sight allowed, a wall of blue fire sped towards the land at a phenomenal pace.

Fear and wonder held some in place, but for those who did run there would still be no escape.

The closer the flame drew, the more ferocious the wind; it ripped at trees and undergrowth to combine animals and plants in a terror-filled roar. Then moments later a sonic blast reached the shore: a solid wall of air which tore across the land, smashing any stronghold in its path, to leave most dead or dying when the inferno arrived and burned all to ash in its wake.

Distant Suns is also available in paperback.

Also by Patricia Smith: Distant Suns – The Journey Home, Distant Suns – The Silexous, Time Split, Time Split – Briggs, Islands – The Epidemic and Nebathan.

“I was blown away by this wonderful story-line and the believable science behind it! Written so perfectly – I fell in love with the characters and I joined them on an emotional journey throughout – I’d highly recommend this book to anyone – even those that don’t usually choose this type of read!” Amazon Customer.
