On Golden Land

 A beautiful story 



Summary


Seven lifelong friends from California meet along their journey to
adulthood and fall into committed relationships. Andrea and Paul meet
after university growing marijuana in the Golden Triangle. 
Together they decide to retire, live communally in New Mexico, and
grow marijuana and ginger. They are joined by an eighth member along
the way to become four couples. They build a homestead, complete with
four houses, a greenhouse, yoga studio, and cutting shed. Relationships
are tried and tested by external pressures, which threaten to destroy their
communal life. Children and grandchildren come and go to create a
dynamic unit. Will their lifestyle turn into a hippy pipedream or a
happy ending?




















My Review

I really enjoyed reading On Golden Land due to the well written story
and the characters, which were pointed out very good. The story was
clear and it captivated me from start to finish. I also liked the layout of
the cover. 

I recommend the book to 18+ readers due to some scenes in the book,
but a fantastic read.

Of course I give a 5 star rating to On Golden Land and I hope more 
books will follow!

The Sand Fiddlers

The Sand Fiddlers

A Rogue Green Beret's Escape From the
Memories of Vietnam







Alex Driscoll, a US Army Special Forces combat veteran, seeks solitude on an isolated
section of beach while awaiting a discharge forced upon him due to an unauthorized
eighteen-month mission to avenge the torture and butchering of his teammates at the hands
of a Viet Cong death squad. A mysterious blonde-haired woman shows up unexpectedly
and ruins his plans for seclusion. Suspecting she is either a war protestor or sent by
the Criminal Investigation Division of the Army’s Military Police, he tries to keep her
distant. His suspicion dissipates when she reveals her lack of modesty and disclosure
of childhood sexual abuse, retaliation, and possibly murder in a past as dark as his own.
She claims she only seeks answers about the demons possessing a former friend who
didn’t return from the same jungle. The strangers are drawn closer throughout the day
and night, only for him to discover the circumstances of the former friend aren’t what
they seemed. Torn between reality and fantasy, his realization that he has fallen in love
may have come too late to save the developing romance.

It's a special and wonderful tale about the search for true love. It's written in short
