Spun from Scottish folklore, Dancing Naked in the Rain weaves a tale of romance, mystery, and fantasy. Megan McEller, craving a world beyond her classroom, puts down her chalk and heads for Scotland with dreams of earning her living as a travel writer. But before she can land her first contract, she becomes smitten with a man who proves to be no ordinary lover. From the beginning of their first meeting, neither her charm nor love can protect her from the curse haunting his presence. As she moves amidst the ancient grounds of the Highland, she finds herself helplessly ensnared in a supernatural world beyond her wildest nightmares. This causes her to waver between her own naivete and the madness thrust upon her. Megan's struggle to unravel the mystery surrounding her lover is at the heart of Dancing Naked in the Rain. Her face-to-face encounters with otherworldly forces shatter the world as she knows it, forcing the unfolding of a newfound trust within her. It is then, and only then, that she is able to unearth the mystery threatening to doom both her and her love.

The Wicca Handbook is both a tutorial for new witches and an exceptionally well-organized reference book for experienced practitioners. It guides us through the first steps in becoming a witch and explores many Wiccan traditions, initiations, and magical practices. The Wiccan year-the eight Sabbats-along with many of its rituals and ceremonies are examined. Holland also provides the background of every facet of witchcraft, such as spells for every occasion, psychic protection, numerology, basic astrology, and the lore of stones, metals, candles, animals, and much more. High Priestess Eileen Holland's helpful guide is rooted in practicality and intended as a working handbook, not a simple beginner's guide. The information is rich; clear directions are given, and its range of content is extensive. Spells, circles, crystals, and color magic, herbs, health, and healing are all covered with abundant direction on how to do it, when to do it, and suggestions for seeking guidance from the deities. Those who have been on their path for a few years will find this a great reference book to refer to time and again.

It was in those days when year after year everything turned to mud. One day in a depressed state of mind, I gave up. If there is a God, would he help me? Time passed by. Months turned into one long day. Nothing changed. Then one day I called in sick, stayed home, and laid down. I fell asleep and a vision appeared. I was in a dark room, sitting in a wooden chair facing a closed door. Then a light shown under the door. A fear came over me. Someone was on the other side of that door. The door opened slowly and a warm bright light flooded the room. A man dressed in a white robe stepped forward stood in the doorway and asked me, "Am I the One You Are Looking For?" I fell to my knees and crying, I said "Yes". The last thing I saw was a small little boy holding hands with this man as they walked up the dirt path. That was me and He was the Christ, the Son of the Living God. In that moment I decided to leave what the world calls society and entered into a world of spirituality that only those who enter it can understand. I pray, you the reader, may someday walk the one and only path that leads you into the world of spirituality and leads you out of the darkness of today's society and addictions. God bless you and may the Lord have mercy on you.James L. Crawford, Author
