Brotherly Love
It made sense that Fredricka Powell became a nun. After all, she was raised at a convent and her mother was a nun too.
But now her beloved mother was ill, the community foundation her mother had run for years was in danger of being shut down along with St. Rita's monastery that helped support it, and she was pretty sure St. Rita's handyman had feelings for her. Worse, she realized she had them for him as well.
​
All she could do is have faith it would all work out.

The Food Court War
Tim Lovell's job at the Paradise Mall SandWitch Shoppe was supposed to be temporary, until he managed to get one of his sci-fi stories published. Then he would be on his way to the big time!
​
But when he accidentally stayed past closing time, he discovered there was more going on at the food court, and the mall, than just fast food and rampant consumerism. And those fantastic stories he wrote couldn't compare to the creatures and worlds that were hiding in plain site!

Middle Grade Reader
Ms. Heigliss vs the FBT
Cicily and Gwendolyn Parquatt were looking forward to summer vacation like most middle-school kids. Swimming, picnics, building a rocket ship in their backyard - all the usual stuff.
​
But when their teacher, Mrs. Smith, showed up and told them she was an agent of the Federal Bureau of Teachers (aka the FBT) and that she needed their help to stop her arch-nemesis from taking control of the world fish supply, they knew their space exploration would have to wait.

Samantha's Surprise
Samantha had no idea where the shoe-sized Elephant had come from. Or how he had learned to play the clarinet so beautifully.
But her father didn't care. He just wanted the tiny pachyderm to take his horn and stop causing noise, and trouble, in his house!

Elizabeth Fixes the Moon
Elizabeth had quite a sixth birthday. Her father let her stay up to see the full moon, and her grandmother gave her a turtle. She was so excited, even if her new pet never seemed to stop eating.
​
But when her turtle escaped and she saw more and more of the moon disappear each night, she knew she had to catch him before it was totally gone and her father found out!
King Pictairn
Tom didn't quite believe his grandfather's stories of catching a leprechaun, and not just any leprechaun, but the 'King of the Western Lands'. He also didn't buy his explanation of supposedly losing the wishes before he could make them.
But when Tom finds a drawing in the barn of what appears to be a leprechaun trap, he decides maybe his grandfather really isn't just telling tall tales.
