[image error]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A healthy love of song and the Lord God has led to this volume. It is the author’s sincere hope that others who enjoy music will come to love the Lord through the book’s offerings to His glory. It is meant to aid the young Christian, whether chronologically young or recently converted to faith in Christ Jesus, explore what the Bible and the Christian Church teach so seekers’ faith may become deeper and their love for the Lord greater. Vocal, guitar and piano parts have been included for every song in the volume and may be used in any combination by musicians of various skill levels in the praise and glory of God. Veronica Bergschneider has been writing poetry and music separately since the age of 15. Using those tools to prepare this volume of prayer and song has helped her deepen her own faith over the seven years of work it has taken to produce. The project began when the author’s daughter, Anna, who had been baptized the previous fall, was about to celebrate her first Christmas. Hearing too many secular songs being played on the radio at the time led Veronica to want to teach Anna the true reason behind Christmas, and from there, as other celebrations and lessons of Christianity came up, they inspired teachable moments being turned to song.

Milo Moon

It all ended after World War Two. Or so it was thought. While medical and physiological experimentation on humans was repugnant and against all sensibilities, it remained valuable and above all highly profitable. Just simply believing something had gone away was good enough for most.

Not for Milo Moon and Mary Seaton, who became proof of an international conspiracy to hide the truth. Simple and childish they may have been, but they held a history in their beings that was a threat to international political stability. For the Swiss government faced with such a discovery on their soil, the art of politics necessitated compromise and calculation to find a solution. A viable outcome that gained maximum political benefit of course; which is the habit of seasoned politicians.

However, above all this had to remain a secret and be buried again behind the walls of political cloak and dagger, secret services and a need to protect the sensitivities that we call modern history. Therefore, it never happened.

“Simply put, this is the best erotic book I have ever read.” D. Lucias Rhinehart, Amazon

After being captured by people smugglers, on the perilous

journey by boat along the African coast, the girl they call Chengi discovers

from the sheikh a taste for the whip and the perverse joys of discipline. As

she sheds her rights, as well as her clothes, so she sheds her preconceptions.

At the sheikh’s fort on the edge of the Sahara, she revels in being an object

of desire and feels accepted in the harem when the women shave her body and

tattoo her in the clan’s blue spider.

As Chengi learns her craft as a concubine, she explores the

deep mystery of her awakened sexuality, a fairy tale life that ends in betrayal

when she is carried off by wild camel herders to the slave market in Timbuktu.

She is sold to black magic pagans planning a human sacrifice. Will the

sheikh save her? Or was their erotic passion just a dream? Chengi must wait

until All Soul’s Night to learn her extraordinary fate.

“Never in all the hundreds and thousands of romance tales and stories that I

have read over the decades has a novel left me so speechless. Brilliant. “

A Heart on Hold (An Everlasting Heart)

Charlotte’s lips only took a moment to find those belonging to her beloved. He tasted faintly of molasses and she was immediately drawn into the warmth of his embrace. Their bodies were perfectly pressed together, fitting as though one had been divinely made for the other, as Sanderson’s kisses trailed from Charlotte’s lips down her neck.

Her hands found his softly stubbled face and guided him back to her lips. With his strong arms around her, she’d never felt more safe. Or more vulnerable.

War. Devotion. Deceit. Death. How long can a heart hold on before it breaks? Most women would carry on with their lives after being thrust into widowhood, but not Charlotte Adamsland. Upon learning that her husband, Captain Sanderson Redding, was killed in a botched escape from a Confederate prison in Illinois, she clings to his promise to return to her no matter what, and quickly heads north through a war-ravaged country with only her faith in God and her beloved horse to bring her beloved Sanderson home – one way or another.
