A unique, groundbreaking book about parenting an autistic child, combining important life lessons and inspiring answers to society’s questions about life on the spectrum.

Parenting is challenging for everyone, but it is even more trying for parents of autistic children.

Blessing in Disguise attempts to provide answers to the questions those parents are asked routinely by their environment – friends, co-workers, even their own family.

More importantly, Blessing in Disguise tells a story of hope, difficulty, courage, and acceptance. It conveys the personal story of Rada Hen, whose son, Adi, is special needs. Adi communicates with the world not through speech, but with his eyes and heart.

Within this book readers will find answers to common questions from society, concerning parenting and raising a child on the spectrum:

• How to make other children accept those who are different from them?
• Which important things should parents who do not have autistic children know?
• Would you have had an abortion if you had known that you would have an autistic child?
• How does one communicate with a child who is on the spectrum?

Moreover, this book will teach you how to communicate with your children in a new and special way, how to appreciate and love them more, better understand the world of a person with autism, and accept the different and the unexpected.

Between strike violence and a bootlegging war, no one is safe in Western Maryland.

Western Marylanders are anticipating a short visit from President Harding during the summer of 1922. While the local movers and shakers want to impress the President, Matt Ansaro discovers a coal miners’ union plot against the President. Matt sets about trying to disrupt the plot while maintaining his undercover identity as a coal miner.

The fallout from David Lakehurst’s time in Western Maryland continues. Before he fled the area, Lakehurst wrote a letter to the area union organizer, outing Matt as an undercover Pinkerton agent. Now, the union is trying to turn Matt into a double agent, so they avoid the law and strike the hardest against the coal mining companies.

Enos Ansaro is enjoying his time making moonshine deliveries because he loves driving. However, as the price of moonshine escalates, more people are looking to cash in on the profits. Some of them are dangerous, and the area verges on the brink of a bootlegging war while the strike violence continues.

The area is a tinderbox waiting for something to ignite it. That might be the kidnapping of Samantha Havencroft. She is Matt’s girlfriend and the daughter of the state college president. The bootlegging war has brought in federal agents looking to shut down operations, but the kidnapping will bring in the state authorities, too.

From the author of the Canawlers novels comes the new Black Fire series full of action, intrigue, drama, and romance in the 1922 Western Maryland coal fields.

EASTON

There is nothing I hate more than when some big-city outsider stirs trouble in my peaceful little town. When Mr. Arrogance himself waltzes in and thinks he can slap a price tag on my land, he doesn’t know what he has coming. I’m not just a hick cowboy who’s going to bend to his good looks and charmless personality. No, sir.
I don’t care how smart he looks in his fancy suits, all he cares about is money.
I just wish I’d known who he was before I kissed him.

LACHLAN

The last thing I wanted was to get stuck in a small town with a plethora of quirky people. If the stubborn cowboy doesn’t see sense soon, I don’t know what I’ll do. Failure is not an option. I was sent to make a deal, and I’m not leaving until it’s done.
I don’t care how hot he looks in his low hanging denim, boots, and hat, he wouldn’t see a good opportunity if it smacked him in the face.
I just wish I could get the taste of him off my tongue.
