The hot air from the heater above the giant roll-up doors hit me in the face as I was leaving the Costco with my shopping cart full of stuff I probably didn’t need, and would return in a few days. The wonderful warmth of the heat made me instantly regret not wearing a coat, because outside it was raining. It wasn’t raining when I walked in, but the weather changed by the time I was done shopping. It’s not like I didn’t know it was going to rain, it was in the forecast. I just chose not to listen. As I stood under the overhang plotting the quickest route to my car, I noticed something that didn’t surprise me at all. Not everyone gave two fiddles that it was raining. Some of the people heading towards the Costco entrance were in raincoats, but a large amount were not. They were wearing t-shirts and shorts. I didn’t have a coat, so no judgement here. If I had a coat on, I wonder if I would have judged them. My eldest son is wearing shorts today. I’m judging myself as a mom as we speak. Hmph

Beaty Butte (Billy Bartell Series Book 2)
by David Martin Anderson
Genre: Literature & Fiction | Westerns
FREE for a limited time
Billy Bartell has languished in a Montana prison cell ten years into a life sentence for a murder committed in 1939 while defending wild mustangs atop Pryor Mountain. Now, at age 27, he has become a seasoned inmate without hope of parole and no means of protecting feral herds still being ravished by man. Recently, Billy’s warden has awarded the veteran horse whisperer ‘Model Prisoner’ status and bestowed the management of the prison’s fledgling ‘horse rescue’ program. This first-of-its-kind prisoner rehabilitation program offers an opportunity to save horses but not enough freedom to stop the mass extermination carried out by Billy’s former nemeses, Captain Leonard Belial. Then, a fateful day arrives when the warden permits Billy to attend a funeral of a mutual friend. Lifers are never gifted such indulgences but the warden makes an exception for his favorite prisoner. Granting Billy a clandestine two-day furlough puts the warden’s job on the line. Once outside prison walls, Billy discovers his ex-lover’s eleven-year-old child, Samantha, is alive and living with the girl’s widowed aunt on an Oregon cattle ranch. The ranch has fallen into receivership and needs an experienced drover to help turn it around. With this news, Billy is torn between returning to prison, thereby fulfilling his promise to the warden, or fleeing to Beaty Butte, Oregon and parenting the little girl. Beaty Butte is one of the last refuges for wild mustangs. Thus, Billy has to make a life altering choice (a left turn or a right turn on a country road), requiring the telling of two parallel stories based on the outcome of each choice…

Free BONUS Inside!
D-Day, the 6th of June, is one of the most significant dates in the calendar. The twentieth century’s fate hung in the balance, as Nazi Germany had marched across Europe, bringing the blitzkrieg, the Holocaust, and the mad dreams of Adolf Hitler across the bloodied landscape of Europe. France had fallen, and until the Americans joined the battle in December 1941, the balance of power was securely in the hands of the Third Reich. But even as the Allied forces joined together under the leadership of Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Germany continued to win battles. In order for the Nazis to be stopped, the Allies had to invade occupied Europe. And invade they did, launching the most massive amphibious landing the world had ever seen.
The pantheon of heroes of the Normandy invasion includes soldiers who are unknown except for the crosses that bear their names in the cemeteries where they were buried, but all, those who died and those who survived, played their part in the liberation of Europe.
Discover a plethora of topics such as
• Countdown to D-Day
• Supreme Allied Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower
