In the fictional town of Afton, Missouri, friendship and gossip go hand-in-hand. In Dear Midge, a collection of entertaining letters between the immensely popular Midge Clovis and her eccentric friends, the madcap life of the small town is slowly revealed through correspondence detailing the outrageously funny and slightly nutty events that occur around those who are just crazy enough to reside in Afton. From letters that request Midges assistance with town happenings like the Annual Afton Early Spring Winter Carnival and with social gatherings like the Cod Squad that eagerly searches for the best fish fry around town, it is soon evident that Midge is the go-to-gal, town confidante, avid collector of gossip, and connoisseur of all things potluckincluding deviled eggs, seven-layer dip with a shocking fifth layer, and a tantalizing sausage concoction. An authentically old-fashioned atmosphere abounds as Midge discovers the hidden joys behind a wacky white sale at Garrisons Grocer-rama and the personal rewards behind being member of the American Society of Ladies Unmentionables and Toys (also known as ASLUT). Dear Midge unveils the fun and merriment that surround a town that refuses to follow the Norman Rockwell standard in order to forge its rightful place in history.

THE REDEMPTION SERIES: 100 years after Margaret Anne transformed an American family, comes the profound 4-part finale to the Calhoun saga. BOOK THREE: Reckoning Sacrifice birthed the unsettled world of Margaret Anne. Now, only surrender can pave the way for closure. As Matthew’s harrowing and highly anticipated journey to deliver the Spanish Cross into the hands of his estranged son reaches its climactic conclusion, the one who has been ordained to fulfill the ancient promise of the often maligned and unjustly persecuted Miss Margaret Anne Basseterre is revealed. Reckoning portrays the troubled life of Matthew’s son, David Michaeal Sonneman. From his tragic and destitute beginnings, which are sparingly revealed in Angel Ascending, the story of David’s life, including the true nature of his trials and tribulations and his sacred mission, is brought into focus in this scintillating and thought provoking third book of the Redemption Series. When David ultimately discovers that his earthly salvation from that darkened basement in Baltimore was something far different than what he had always supposed, he is forced to reconsider his lifelong desire to avenge those wrongs that were served upon him, at least those wrongs that he understood as a young child. He must decide between his developing faith, which accompanies his hope for a better tomorrow, and those deeply entrenched desires to put an end to those responsible for the worst of his childhood afflictions when the true story of his life is made known to him. “Reckoning” is the fascinating continuation of the Redemption series, uncovering the next intricate layer to the Margaret Anne saga of fate, faith, reckoning, and mercy.
