America’s Deceit
Price range: $3.99 through $17.99America’s Deceit is a gripping political thriller that reexamines one of the most shocking moments in American history-the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. But this story goes far beyond Dallas, 1963. What begins as a historical tragedy unravels into a modern web of corruption, espionage, and betrayal at the highest levels of power. Through decades of buried evidence and silenced witnesses, the novel exposes the intricate machinery that keeps the truth hidden-a machinery still at work today. Was Kennedy’s death the act of a lone gunman, or part of something far more sinister?
From the corridors of Washington to covert operations overseas. America’s Deceit pulls readers into the shadow of power where patriotism collides with conspiracy-and where one man’s search for answers could change everything we thought we knew about our nation’s past.
The deeper you dig into history… the darker it gets.

An Angel is Born: A Family’s Story
Price range: $3.99 through $24.95It would be impossible to keep track of all the people that we encounter during the course of a lifetime; however, the few that affect and change us forever could be counted on the fingers of one hand. There are people such as those depicted within this book. There are a lot of people whose stories are told here: their lives, their times, and their fate, but there was one who changed everyone around her without ever trying. An Angel is born spans the course of nearly seven decades, and looks back at a time when things were simpler yet not always better.
If you are nostalgic you’ll reminisce, if you are a parent you will appreciate, if you are spiritual you will be sustained, and if you have a heart you will be forever moved. Their lives, their world, their future lay before them sweet and dying… Angel’s parents sat at her bedside holding her hand and whispering sacred words of encouragement with agonizing thoughts of farewell. Then a voice from the Holy Firmaments of heaven spoke to them saying, ”You are now separated…”
…a story about how generations shaped by the unique demands of Appalachia helped one kid to thrive against all odds.
An Angel Is Born is much more than a story about the life and death of an amazing girl with special needs. Nostalgic, honest, and moving, this is a contemplative history of how every life–and every death–adds its own thread to the tapestry of a family and community.

Angels at work – For Youth
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99“Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands,” (Revelation 5:11 NKJV).
Angels were created by our Father God before the creation of the earth, before the Garden of Eden, and before humans. Angels actually witnessed all of creation and they were overjoyed to see it unfold (Job 38). These beautiful, intelligent, glorious and mighty angels are worthy of study.
Angels have had serious roles in Old Testament history including guarding the Garden of Eden, mediating the Laws of Moses, leading the Israelites out of Egypt, and bringing food to God’s servants. Angels conveyed messages to people throughout the Bible, announced the birth of Jesus, released the apostles from prison, strengthened those who were weary, and ministered to Jesus before the cross.
Many do not realize that in modern times Angels continue to work for mankind. These secret agents have different roles to carry out God’s purposes. Angels may be messengers, warriors, guardians, or ministering spirits. There are angels solely created to worship God and there are angels who are charged with protecting God’s most precious creation and helping us attain our destiny.
My goal is to get young people and adults to ask God to send angels when help is needed here on earth and to pray for Psalm 91 angel protection.

Angels at work: Elementary Version
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99“Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands,” (Revelation 5:11 NKJV).
Angels were created by our Father God before he created the earth, animals, or people. In the Bible, it says angels watched God creating everything and shouted with joy (Job 38). These beautiful, intelligent, glorious, mighty angels had important responsibilities in Old and New Testament history.
Angels work for God, but angels also work for mankind. These secrets agents have many jobs. In this book, you will read about warrior angels, messenger angels, guardians, ministering spirits, and worshipping celestial beings. Even with all the work angels do, an angel’s most important job is worshipping God. That is why good angels never want humans to bow down or worship them; the angels understand that only God should be worshipped.
While we do not usually see the supernatural, it is real. Studying the scriptures helps believers understand more about angels and see them in the proper light. My goal is to get children, teens, young people, and adults to understand that they can ask God to send angels. Here on earth, whenever we need it, we can ask for (Psalm 91) angelic protection over ourselves, our homes, and our family.

Bear Stories
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99“Bear Stories” is a collection of seventy-seven tales that are designed to be humorous while still speaking to larger issues and truths. This is a rich, multi-faceted manuscript that is designed to appeal to readers of all ages. Among his “Bear Stories,” Shaffer delivers the unknown biography of Smokey the Bear, he celebrates the cleverness of Wilbear and Orville Bear as they take to the skies, and he reveals how the assistance of a bear helped result in the invention of the light bulb. He tells the “true” story of the history of the home run – a bear named Homer who walloped the ball in every at-bat – as well as that of the discovery of electricity (by Bear Franklin), and the telephone (by Alexander Graham Bear).
In addition to his more creative stories (such as the aforementioned), Shaffer’s manuscript also draws its inspiration from current situations, as in “Bears in the City,” which is based on a headline seen to that effect. His stories capture the nature and setting of the Old West, small-town America, Nazi Germany, and Roaring Twenties’ Hollywood; in some ways, therefore, his work could help introduce young readers to certain periods and events in history.
Shaffer’s use of language is both enjoyable and humorous. In addition, his delightfully self-deprecating tone may appeal to readers. The rhyme and meter utilized throughout the manuscript help to move it forward effectively, while Shaffer’s use of personification is nothing short of masterful, and may further endear him to readers, both young and old. Ultimately, his work is a fun, smart collection that could have a wide appeal.

Before I Became Me: The Path To My Greatness
Price range: $3.99 through $16.99After the fourth puff, my head would begin to spin. At that time in my life, puffing a cigar was an experience I thoroughly enjoyed. i enjoyed it so much I tried to smoke everyday.
As I reflect, that was the time I started on the wrong path in life. A year before, I started skipping school. I liked the control I had when I didn’t go to school. Looking into my life, the first time I got high began a downward spiral. When I skipped school after that, smoking created a path toward girls, lying, robbing, and stealing. Then my drug use began in that order. I stayed on that path for nearly twenty-three years. Though it was exciting at times, it was also dangerous. I can remember times I almost died. I’m so grateful to be alive with most of the senses God gave me.
