Markers: Savannah Sweethearts Prequel & Books 1-2

By

Did you know that my Savannah Sweethearts series has a prequel? Ask You Later is technically (and mathematically) Book 0. The events in that novel take place about a year before Riverside Chapel moves to the riverboat on the Savannah River.

Now you can read the first three books in the Savannah Sweethearts series together in one boxed set. Read this boxed set for free with your Kindle Unlimited subscription!

Memorial Day (May 27, 2019)

By

This Memorial Day weekend, I would like to remember the sacrifices of American heroes to keep this country free. God bless the USA!

Even as we remember the heroes who have died, I pray that God would bless all our active and still living American soldiers, sailors, aviators, and service members in every branch of the US Military that they serve in. Some day, they too will face God, as will all of us mortal humans. Meanwhile, back to Memorial Day, may God comfort the families as they remember their loved ones’ ultimate sacrifice for the freedom of the United States of America.

I feel that it’s appropriate here to quote the Navy Hymn.

Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd’st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea!

O Christ! Whose voice the waters heard
And hushed their raging at Thy word,
Who walked’st on the foaming deep,
And calm amidst its rage didst sleep;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea!

Most Holy Spirit! Who didst brood
Upon the chaos dark and rude,
And bid its angry tumult cease,
And give, for wild confusion, peace;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea!

O Trinity of love and power!
Our brethren shield in danger’s hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect them wheresoe’er they go;
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea.

Do you buy ebooks from Amazon?

By

It’s summer time, readers in the northern hemisphere! Time to read more, right? I just came across all these deals on Amazon that I’d like to pass on to readers everywhere. Please note that I am using affiliate links for this sales event, so Amazon knows if you click through that you came through my website.

Here are a couple of trade-in deals for Kindle Fire:

Of course, you can read Kind ebooks on any other devices besides a Fire, but in case you have some old unused non-Amazon tablets that you want to trade in for a new Fire, you might be able to save some money:

If you prefer to read on a black-and-white Paperwhite tablet, don’t forget to turn on the light:

And if you already have a nice Fire or Paperwhite tablet, then how about some gift cards for the readers in your family?

 

Happy shopping!
