I am completely mesmerized by all the crazy activity happening in my backyard. There are quite a few birds busy gathering materials and making nests. I am not sure if I am watching a mating dance or a fight over territory, but either way it is very impressive. I would love to put out birdseed, but it always makes such a mess and attracts rats. Although I already have a chicken coop filled with birdseed that could feed a whole rat army, so I don’t see how one more feeder could make a huge difference. I think I will dust off the humming bird feeder and give that a try again. Last year I had one, and I was hoping to attract a bunch of humming birds. Instead I got one VERY territorial one who chased everyone away. Who knew such a cute tiny thing could be so aggressive

Jacob’s Return, A Sensual Amish Historical Romance

Jacob Sauder abandons his Amish heritage when the woman he loves, Rachel Zook, agrees to marry his brother, Simon. Though Jacob adapts to the ways of the “English,” even fathering twins, he remains an outsider. When the mother of his twins dies, Jacob knows only one way to raise them – the Amish way. He brings them home to the community he vowed to leave forever. For his children he can do anything, even see, Rachel, the woman he loves married to his brother.

Years ago, Simon lied to ensure a future with Rachel as his wife. Now Rachel is barren, a disappointment. Unaware of the lie Simon told to drive Jacob away, Rachel believes Jacob abandoned her when he left. Shocked when he returns with two-year-old twins, Rachel knows there can be nothing between them, for marriage is a life-long commitment. But the twins need a mother and Rachel loves children. As she cares for Aaron and Emma, as if they were her own, her feelings for Jacob deepen into a love that cannot be.

Jacob’s Return is the story of a prodigal son, a forbidden love, and a fanatical preacher. As shocking as it is compelling, it is both uplifting and unforgettable. A universal story of love and faith in impossible circumstances.

Genre: Humor & Satire | Teen & Young Adult | Coming of Age

FREE for a limited time

The debut novel from “American Pie” series screenwriter David H. Steinberg. It’s the last weekend before high school graduation, and as they prepare to go their separate ways, four life-long friends spend a wild and raucous night in New York City that forces them to face their fear of growing up… and growing apart.

West Hartford, Connecticut. Growing up in the suburbs is a mind-numbingly boring experience for most teenagers, and high school seniors Dylan, Noah, Pike, and Walker are no exception. They spend their days testing how fast they can drive on the local residential streets, bribing homeless dudes to buy them beer, and attending crappy house parties. So when Dylan proposes that they spend their last weekend of high school in New York City attending an underground rave, the guys are ready to make some serious memories.

In New York, though, the guys have run-ins with a drug dealer with a penchant for fire extinguishers, a Chinese restaurant owner with a score to settle, an Albanian street gang, con men, hookers, performance artists, and a gaggle of hot, degenerate, rich girls. Over the course of one incredible night, their outrageous journey gives the guys a bonding experience they’ll never forget, as they learn that part of growing up means they’re going to have to face their futures on their own.
