Faith, forgiveness form foundation of "For Love or Loyalty" by Jennifer Hudson Taylor

I received an invitation to preview Jennifer Hudson Taylor's upcoming book "For Love or Loyalty." A Christian romance set in1760, the story follows a young Scottish man seeking to redeem his mother and sister from indentured servitude. With limited funds, he cannot buy their freedom outright. His plan involves trading the daughter of their kidnapper for at least one of them.

Taylor's story overflows with adventure. Most of all, it teems with Christian values lived rather than preached.

Drugs and Adventure Lead the Way in 'Gray Ghost' by C.L. Swinney

C.L. (Chris) Swinney, a real-deal narcotics investigator, takes readers deep into the worlds of fly fishing and the war between drug smugglers and law enforcement in his debut novel "Gray Ghost."

Miami narcotics detectives Dix and Petersen have headed to the Bahamas for a long-overdue vacation. They've planned a simple agenda: some sleeping, some fishing, some drinking, more fishing. What they stumble into turns into a major drug operation that involves friends of their resort hosts. Although out of their own jurisdiction, they quickly find a Miami connection that brings them ever deeper into the web of murder and lies surrounding the sunken speedboat Gray Ghost.
