Book Description
Wesley Hanson, an uninspired senior at Renton High School in Riverview, is attacked and badly beaten by a boy named B.J. and his Manglers, a notorious gang from the city's Southside. A friend of Wesley's tells him about Arthur Rosalund, an extremely rich man, who dreams of using his money and power to rid the world of gang violence. His gang, Rosalund's Raiders, will infiltrate other gangs and convince them that teaming up with his Raiders will assure them of a worthwhile future, filled with benefits, such as money, scholarships, and security. Wesley overcomes his fear of failing, and, after training vigorously in the martial arts, becomes a full-fledged Raider. His first mission is to contact Rufus Brown, the powerful head of the Rounders, and to convince him to bring fifty other gang leaders to Rosalund. While mixing with the Rounders, Wesley falls in love with Lisa, one of their members. She accompanies Wesley to a meeting of the warlords at Eagle Point Park. The gathering is interrupted by B.J. and his Manglers who are heavily armed and spoiling for blood. The police invade and, after a brutal confrontation, haul most of the gang members, including Wesley, to jail. Will Rosalund's dreams be thwarted? Will Wesley's love for Lisa jeopardize his commitment to Rosalund as one of his Raiders?

Book Description
Working My Way Through Life is my autobiographical memoir of my experiences in the working world. I have worked at 25 different jobs besides teaching English for 40 years (36 in high school and 4 in college). I hope the readers of my book enjoy my stories. Each job has its own drama. Beginning with my first account, shining shoes in taverns at the age of four, to my final years of teaching, the readers will observe a vast array of working experiences, some more exciting than others, but all sharing different insights into the working world. Hopefully, my book will dispel that old saying; “Those who can--do; Those who can’t--teach.” I know that most people in the working world have many experiences and stories of their own. It is a matter of remembering and writing them down. Maybe I’ll be reading your book someday.

Book Description
In Seven Ways We Lie, a chance encounter tangles the lives of seven high school students, each resisting the allure of one of the seven deadly sins, and each telling their story from their seven distinct points of view. The juniors at Paloma High School all have their secrets, whether it’s the thespian who hides her trust issues onstage, the closeted pansexual who only cares about his drug-dealing profits, or the neurotic genius who’s planted the seed of a school scandal. But it’s Juniper Kipling who has the furthest to fall. No one would argue that Juniper—obedient daughter, salutatorian, natural beauty, and loyal friend—is anything but perfect. Everyone knows she’s a saint, not a sinner; but when love is involved, who is Juniper to resist temptation? When she begins to crave more and more of the one person she can’t have, her charmed life starts to unravel. Then rumors of a student–teacher affair hit the fan. After Juniper accidentally exposes her secret at a party, her fate falls into the hands of the other six sinners, bringing them into one another’s orbits. All seven are guilty of something. Together, they could save one another from their temptations—or be ruined by them. Riley Redgate’s twisty YA debut effortlessly weaves humor, heartbreak, and redemption into a drama that fans of Jenny Han and Stephanie Perkins will adore.

Book Description
Spencer Hendran cursed himself for being careless and allowing those ruthless scumbags to inflict agonizing pain and suffering upon him and four lovely young ladies whom he had just befriended on his trek through the Boundary Waters. He would hone his special skills, learned as a former Green Beret, and wreak vengeance upon those thugs-even if he had to chase them to Hell and back. They would rue the day they had committed such atrocities against him and those he cared for-especially Marna with whom he had fallen in love. "The reader of Blood Island should not expect to get away from it all in this fast-paced, suspenseful, and often brutal story. Author Allan Ede writes with great detail, and his story is well-paced-often breath-taking and horrifying at the same time, keeping the reader turning the pages in anticipation. A nail-biting, if not eye-covering, satisfying read." -Pamela Schuster Ostwinkle-award winning author of The Little Teardrop and Monster Tools "I sat down one night to read Blood Island. After engaging in an exciting and twisting plot, I couldn't go to sleep until I finished reading the entire book. You can't imagine the suspense, the terror, and unspeakable horror until you experience it yourself, vicariously through the reading. Ede is an up-and-coming writer of thrilling action who has no boundaries." -Laura Trentz "As a former Green Beret, Spence Hendran is a man of action. Laying his life on the line to protect others is what he does. Avenging the violent murder of the woman he loved, is for him, automatic-non-negotiable. Blood Island is about harsh truths and doing what has to be done. It is not a book for the squeamish." -Sharon Helgens "Blood Island is a thrilling action novel about revenge. Allan Ede, the author, has struck a raw nerve in story telling. He's brilliant, and Blood Island proves it." -John Tigges
