Traditional romantic comedies end with a wedding. Not so in Moonshine Promises. Instead, this tale begins with an elopement as teenagers Evan and Mae run off to avoid a shotgun wedding, a decision that initiates decades of marital adventures and misadventures. Narrated from Evan’s perspective, these stories navigate his fears and loves as he makes his bewildered way through life. And it’s about everything furnishing that life—from a teapot cottage in a jelly cupboard to a snow globe containing a horse-drawn sleigh carrying a miniature family through a forest.

A mysterious mountain, a blood-red moon and a ring with strange engravings on it; these are the images that have haunted Boston socialite Abigail Rose Claremont's dreams since she became a Christian. Though she prays for divine revelation and guidance, she receives no answer until she makes a fateful decision to escape an arranged marriage. Together with her friend, Lucinda, she sets out on a journey that takes her to a hidden world of unspeakable horror and injustice and where she learns quickly to rely upon her faith, wits, and humor to survive. Set in the backdrop of the beautiful Ozark Mountains, she will be led down many strange and dangerous paths. But as she travels these pathways, the meaning of her dream, her family's secrets, and God's plan for her begins to reveal itself. Blood Moon Mountain is a testament of faith and courage in the face of human bondage, prejudice, bigotry, forgiveness, and most of all, love.

The British statesman, orator and author Winston Churchill served as prime minister twice, achieving legendary status for rallying the British people during World War II and leading the country from the brink of defeat to victory. In addition to his careers of soldier and politician, Churchill was a prolific writer, starting with war journalism charting his adventures in British India, at the Siege of Malakand, at Sudan during the Mahdist War and in Africa in the Second Boer War. He excelled as a writer of history, producing multi-volume studies of both World Wars and other grand subjects to critical acclaim. Many of his speeches and parliamentary answers were also published in pamphlets and collected editions. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature ‘for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory’.
