Last Sunday the family and I had just placed our lunch order for Tapas at our favorite Argentinian restaurant at the gas station on the other end of town. It was a super cold day, but well worth having to sit outside and freeze a little for such a savory meal. Yes, one of our favorite restaurants to eat at is at a gas station. Would you believe they won Yelps Best In the Bay Area Restaurant. That is saying a lot considering we live in wine country where the Kardashians and other celebrities love to vacation. So while we were waiting, I hear a rather lovely but confusing sound. Clippetty Clop Clippetty Clop Clippetty Clop. What? Clippetty Clop Clippetty Clop. Around the corner they came. Clippetty Clop. A group of four men and a young child rode right past us on their horses through the gas station, and got in line at the In and Out Burger Drive-through. The owner of the Tapas restaurant just looked at them and said, “Oh nice! My delivery guys are here! I have a few lunch orders that need to go out.” For a split second I thought he might be serious. Nope. They were just hungry for burgers and were waiting in line with the cars to place their orders. Apparently they are there most Saturdays. I say it time and time again, “I love this town!” I love the turkeys that hang out at the police station that use the crosswalk, the chickens at the Walgreens that chase you to your car, the goat who steals treats at Starbucks (one time, but cute), the bear who visits the downtown every year, and the mountain lion who hangs out down by the creek. SERIOUSLY!! It’s like wild kingdom around here!

Max is in love with Molly. And so is his best friend, Sam.
Young and wild, the three friends share an apartment in the Adirondack mountains of New York in the early ’70s living by their whims and vices in an endless party of drunken flirtations, freedom and experimentation, transcendent drugs, and easy sex.
Sam is charismatic and unpredictable and easily charms Molly. Max struggles with insecurity and jealousy and, through a twist of fate, finds himself in her bed, tangling their lives into a romantic knot that threatens to tear them apart. How can sensitive Max fight for fiercely independent Molly without losing his drug-addicted best friend?
Love, lies, and betrayal test their friendship and will change each of them forever. You won’t forget this powerful story of a love triangle between three friends.

REV
by T.R. Harris
Genre: Fantasy | Science Fiction
FREE for a limited time
They made him SUPER HUMAN.
Now what do they do with him?
International bestselling science fiction author T.R. Harris introduces his exciting new Military/Space Opera series about the future of space warfare… and the destiny of mankind.
The REV Warriors Series
Book 1: REV
Every kid wanted to be a REV, but very few ever would.
Zac Murphy was the most-badass REV warrior in the Corps. He’d gone on more Runs and killed more aliens than any single Human alive. He’d been one of the early volunteers for the NT-4 Program, which used a powerful performance-enhancing drug to turn ordinary Marines into super killing machines. Affectionately called REV, the drug wasn’t for everyone. Few made it through the screening process, and fewer still into the Fleet.
Zac was the most-senior REV alive, a miracle of science and a legend in the Corps. His job was to be the battering ram for the Marines, the first in while revved up on NT-4. During a Run he was a mindless killing machine, dangerous to both foe and friend alike. That’s why his fellow Marines gave him a wide berth until he could be put down by the Twilight drug. At that point he was somewhat manageable.
But something was happening to Zac. Long after most other REVs were dead, burned out or ‘retired,’ Zac was growing stronger, more powerful.
He was also doing what no REV had ever done before during a Run. He was beginning to think.
The REV Warrior Serieswas designed for the fans of T.R. Harris and his other popular space opera series The Human Chronicles Saga, featuring the larger-than-life hero Adam Cain. If you like stories about super Humans, large scale military operations against deadly aliens, mech warriors and just plain old shoot-em-up science fiction adventure, then REV is for you.
And as with all the books by T.R. Harris, there’s no fluff and all action in REV, interlaced with wry humor and acerbic wit.

Where the Rubber Meets the Road: The Art of Giving Up the Things that Don’t Serve You (The Uncommon Traveler Book 1)
by Matthew Emmorey
Genre: Self-Help | Religion & Spirituality
FREE for a limited time
Have you ever wondered what it would be like, living in a van, traveling around the states with two huskies for a year? In the winter of 2018, the author found himself without a job. He was sure something was missing from his life, but he did not know what. Little by little, piece by piece, his dream of building out a van came together. He was sure all of his problems could be solved by the open road, the sun on his face, and some rain on his roof. But Where The Rubber Met the Road, he found it was the things he gave up that solved the most.
“Right now, there are things you are doing in your life that are holding you back from things you desperately want. Upon release, your quality of life will immediately improve.”
“It’s rare for a nonfiction book to read the same entertaining way as a fiction, but this book does that!”
“An incredibly touching and raw story about a young man trying to do more than just “find himself.””
Where the Rubber Meets the Road is a lot of things. It is a story of a year living in a van. It is a long look in the rearview mirror. It is a meandering love story, sometimes painfully. It is a roadmap to help you give up things that are leading you astray and preventing you from having the life you dream about. In essence, it is a story about getting more with less effort. Buckle up because there are a few bumps. More importantly, enjoy the ride along a road that leads to seeing and experiencing more beauty in your life. Your destination is glorious so long as you stay present and mind the rules of the road.
If you interested in watching your dreams come together more easily, scroll up and buy a copy.
Come along for the ride!
