From the award-winning author of Surrounded by Enemies, an alternative history novel that asks, What if the Beatles stayed together? We all know the tragic story by now. After seven years as the most popular rock-and-roll group the world has ever seen, the Beatles—torn apart by personal and creative differences—called it quits in 1970, never to play together again. The fact that their contemporaries like the Rolling Stones are still playing today makes their ending even more painful. Once There Was a Way: What if The Beatles Stayed Together? is a story of another reality, the one we wished had happened, where the Fab Four chose to work it out rather than let it be. This book is no mere fairy tale, but a chronicle crafted from the people and events of our own history, shaped to create a brand new narrative in which John, Paul, George, and Ringo find a way to stay friends and keep the band together. Imagine there were more. Lots more. It’s easy if you try. “We know the Beatles let it be, but what if they worked it out instead? This book gives life to every fan’s fantasy. It's a great new adventure full of twists and turns that never were, but might have been.”—Chris Carter, host, Breakfast with the Beatles & Chris Carter’s British Invasion (Sirius/XM Radio) “Hold on to your hats, folks. You’re in for quite a ride.”—Harry Turtledove, alternative history author, How Few Remain, on Surrounded by Enemies

There Is a Way is all about how we get from where we are to where God wants us to be. It is no easy task to describe this trek, but it is the author's goal to offer intriguing ideas and concepts regarding this adventure God offers us. As a pastor and therapist, Kaufman has had a bird's eye view of the life journey of hundreds of people. He uses biblical truth and compatible psychological concepts to describe the skills and practices that help us get from the "as is" to our desired goals. This book is designed to be pragmatic. Although there are plenty of deep thoughts to wrestle with, it is also crafted to speak in practical ways about what works. This book includes nine real-life case studies that illustrate how these skills can lead us to a fulfilling life of faith. When we are committed to integrating God's truth into daily life, growth and positive change tend to follow. It is the author's prayer that these pages stir things within you to see God more clearly, love God more, and find the jet stream of God's grace for your future.

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?
