Stealing First and Other Old-Time Baseball Stories

Whoa! You mean there actually was a player that stole first base? Yes! Catch the story about the zany guy who pulled that off in Stealing First and Other Old-Time Baseball Stories. Did you know that Hall-of-Famer Jackie Robinson was the star of a well-regarded Hollywood movie? The full story about #42’s successful stint in front of the camera is found in the pages of this book. Learn about the All-Star career of the man who Lou Gehrig displaced as Yankees first baseman, a major crisis Major League Baseball faced in 1969, and the statistical reasons why the term “The Mendoza Line” is inaccurate and unfair. Stealing First and Other Old-Time Baseball Stories also includes a heart-felt salute to the major leaguers who lost their lives in war, a new look at the reasons behind the Phillies’ historic late-season collapse in 1964, and an easy-to-understand essay that questions the importance of walks in a team’s offensive strategy. The exciting baseball of the 1980s is fondly remembered with a tip-of-the-hate to the decade’s high-achievers on terrible teams and there’s also a big dose of baby-boomer nostalgia centered on a trip to one of baseball’s historic ball parks. And that’s not all! Stealing First and Other Old-Time Baseball Stories is loaded with intelligent and fun diamond stories that both stats wonks and the casual fan will enjoy.

GalveStorm 1900: A Story of Twin Flames

Set in Galveston, Texas, GalveStorm 1900: A Story of Twin Flames is the story of Uri Petrokov, a Russian immigrant, and Genevieve Parker, a beautiful, independent- thinking young Texas woman who is far ahead of her time. As successful as Uri has been partnering with his brother Peter in the print business and thus living the American Dream, Uri remains, none the less, unfulfilled until the day Genevieve walks into the shop. The struggles the young couple endure to be together including prejudices in the community—and more agonizingly in Genevieve’s own family—test the very limits of their being and love. Meanwhile, another storm is brewing, quite literally. On a Saturday in 1900, Galveston is taken by complete surprise when a hurricane unexpectedly devastates the port city, nearly sweeping it from the face of the Earth. The resulting cataclysm, an intersection of personal and communal tragedy, changes the young couple’s life forever.

Her Toronto Tycoon

Everyone makes mistakes, even could-be-jetsetters trying to lead a wholesome life. But when the sins of the summer catch up with Caroline “Caro” Linton, she’s shocked to find her partner in crime, Toronto Tycoon, Peregrine "Perry" Prichard Lawrence III toting a baby he’s convinced is theirs. How could she have given their child away? And how could Caro be so blind to a kindred spirit who, like her, is determined to do the right thing? But the right thing means finding the baby’s true mother, something Caro must convince Perry to do, even if it breaks his heart… and hers. Her Toronto Tycoon is a cinnamon roll romance, complete with homemade icing for those who prefer their heroes too good to resist. Written from a Christian worldview, this clean and wholesome billionaire romance takes readers from sultry summer to snowy Christmas. And canvases the reality of mistakes, forgiveness, judgement, and what it truly means to be a Christian. Family is often what you make it and perspective is everything. From a glittering Port Hercule in Monte-Carlo, to the Toronto, Ontario financial district, a wooded Haliburton hideaway, to the high-climes of the Swiss Alps where winter fun happens 360 days a year, Her Toronto Tycoon challenges readers to think before judging. And even then to be more forgiving than human nature will often allow. We all make mistakes! If you’re a fan of “clean and swoony” Ellie Hall, the creative flare of Lorana Hoopes, or the tender touch of Liz Isaacson, you’ll want a taste of Her Toronto Tycoon.

The Starchild Trilogy

THE STARCHILD TRILOGY begins with building a Space Launch Loop enabling massive movement off Earth and subsequent settlement of Cislunar-Space, Mars, and beyond. SLINGSHOT is the story of the struggle behind constructing the largest machine ever built stretching between Baker and Jarvis Islands in the Equatorial Pacific, and how the men and women behind Slingshot overcome the project's physical, economic, and human obstacles. In THE STARCHILD COMPACT, a team exploring Saturn's moon Iapetus discovers it to be a derelict starship, and meets the Founders, remnants of an ancient, advanced race, the Ectarians, that arrived in the Solar System 150,000 years ago. Together, they create the Starchild Institute governed by a document they call the Starchild Compact to further develop and introduce Ectarian technology to the Solar System. Using Ectarian technology, they develop near lightspeed spacecraft, artificial wormholes, FTL starships, and human longevity. As human colonies expand into the Solar System, they form a governing coalition: THE IAPETUS FEDERATION. While a united Islam pursues a global Jihad that rages across the planet putting millions to the sword, the Federation enables an exodus from Earth using artificial wormholes. From hand-to-hand combat in the oceans to battles on Earth's surface to the challenge of living off-Earth and reaching for the stars, our heroes fight to survive and to expand humankind to the far reaches of the universe.
