“Beyond the Bars” (Self-published 2011)

Beyond the Bars is a tense story carried out with the classic ‘Rashomon effect’, in which multiple-viewpoint characters go through similar events, each with a different experience.

A homegrown terrorist rallies several terrorist organizations and convinces them to carry out a meticulous plan. The goal is to rid the country of so-called evil by targeting specific people by location. Using the latest in powerful, military-grade explosives, they set off coordinated blasts at three of the nation’s crowded bus terminals. Hundreds are killed. Fear sweeps the nation. Through five lead characters we see how their lives are disrupted by the terror campaign. Their worlds merge and intersect because of this frightening experience.

Jared Jones, a popular radio announcer, loses his father to a sudden heart condition and finds himself grieving and alone. When the grief hits him full force one night as he stands alone in his kitchen, a man by the name of Evan who claims to have “spiritual authority” appears to him.

Evan helps Jared decide that what he really needs in his life is a family of his own. Shortly after his encounter with “the spiritual authority,” Jared meets two women.

Chloe is a single mom with an amazing child, Ian, who has a heart defect of his own. Ian needs surgery and Jared feels the urge to help.

Abigail is a fiery writer whose first book has gained national recognition. Jared is torn between the two women, but knows he has to choose.

After fumbling through his relationships and making as many mistakes as possible, Jared finally realizes that he cannot make such decisions on his own so he asks God to help him turn things around.

“Taxi Delivery” (Blue Ribbon Books 2013)

Jed Leida enjoys his job as a taxi driver as he pays his way through law school. He picks up a lot of interesting people and drives them to locations all over New York. But when pregnant Sadie Walker jumps into his cab one morning, he instantly feels a connection with her as he looks into her eyes through the rear view mirror.

After a few moments of their drive, however, Sadie goes into labor and has her baby right there in the back of his cab. When Sadie is carted off to the hospital without Jed ever catching her name, he figures that is the end of their story, but he simply can’t let go.

Once they re-connect, their feelings begin to grow but then, the baby’s father enters the picture. Can they overcome past secrets and find the love that God meant for them to have with one another?

“Wrong Place, Right Time” (The Writer’s Coffee Shop 2014)

As the bumbling town TV traffic reporter, Kate Covington is a constant source of entertainment, but Kate sticks with her dead end job because of her love for news anchor Brian Schaffer. When Brian spontaneously runs off to marry his high school sweetheart, Kate panics and quickly follows. She finds herself in a Las Vegas wedding chapel, desperate to tell her best friend how she feels before he makes a huge mistake and marries the wrong person. The mistake, however, is all Kate’s.

As the scorned bride runs back down the short aisle, Kate quickly realizes she just interrupted the wrong wedding. The would-be groom, Chad Leida, explains the predicament Kate has caused him…he needs to marry before turning 30 in order to inherit his family fortune…and he no longer has a bride.

When Chad asks Kate to marry him and promises her a million dollars for a year of her time, Kate isn’t sure what to do. She has a great deal of debt to her name due to caring for her ailing grandmother, but she also doesn’t want to let go of the idea of love and marriage going together.

Kate’s impulsive decision changes her entire lifestyle…and her ideas about love. From Las Vegas to San Francisco and even to the Midwestern city of Omaha, Kate learns that even when she turns up in the Wrong Place, sometimes it is at just the Right Time.
