There’s more than a prophecy holding them together … Famous rock star, Xochitl Leonine, has dreamt of a world with two moons where a black-cloaked man beckons her. One Halloween night, she meets the mysterious stranger of her dreams… literally... and their shared dance becomes a rendezvous in a place of endless night. Zareth Amotken has no idea how important Xochitl’s heavy metal band is to her. As an immortal sorcerer, he doesn’t care. He has one goal: to find the prophesied savior of his world. Her voice holds the power to bring back his world’s vanished sun. Xochitl’s compassion urges her to help in any way she can. Yet learning the mysteries of her past causes conflict with her future in music. Her destiny in his world and her obligations to her band pull her in opposite directions. How can she long for one while the other is so dire? As Zareth introduces her to his people and teaches her to control her powers, she aches for his enchanting kiss. Zareth tries to resist, for their passion will unleash serious consequences, both political and magical. As the time to fulfill her destiny draws closer, she must choose between her heart, her duty, and her friends. The wrong choice could ruin everything. But if Zareth’s evil half-brother succeeds in taking control of her for his own ends, he will take away her choices… and destroy the world. "This is a great book with strong character interactions. Xochitl's destiny unfolds further and more of the prophecy comes into play. An exciting and at times mysterious tale that will keep you hooked." - All Things Book Reviews "More fantasy romance than paranormal romance. The magic and the world was amazing and the hero dark and dangerous (just the way I like them)." -Shona Husk, author of the Court of Anwyn Series. "Conjuring Destiny is a paranormal urban fantasy romance novel, that once you start reading you won't want to put down. It has all the markings of high fantasy while giving a fresh take on traditional fantasy and paranormal canon." - KitKat reviews

This book provides a sophisticated new interdisciplinary interpretation of the formulation and evolution of African American religion and culture. Theophus Smith argues for the central importance of "conjure"--a magical means of transforming reality--in black spirituality and culture. Smith shows that the Bible, the sacred text of Western civilization, has in fact functioned as a magical formulary for African Americans. Going back to slave religion, and continuing in black folk practice and literature to the present day, the Bible has provided African Americans with ritual prescriptions for prophetically re-envisioning, and thereby transforming, their history and culture. In effect the Bible is a "conjure book" for prescribing cures and curses, and for invoking extraordinary and Divine powers to effect changes in the conditions of human existence--and to bring about justice and freedom. Biblical themes, symbols, and figures like Moses, the Exodus, the Promised Land, and the Suffering Servant, as deployed by African Americans, have crucially formed and reformed not only black culture, but American society as a whole. Smith examines not only the religious and political uses of conjure, but its influence on black aesthetics, in music, drama, folklore, and literature. The concept of conjure, he shows, is at the heart of an indigenous and still vital spirituality, with exciting implications for reformulating the next generation of black studies and black theology. Even more broadly, Smith proposes, "conjuring culture" can function as a new paradigm for understanding Western religious and cultural phenomena generally.

On a stormy night, as a hurricane raced up the Gulf Coast and created havoc in its path, Betty Gilliland was born on a corn shuck mattress in a barn at the foot of Sand Mountain. As soon as the midwife wrapped her in a blanket and gently laid her in a cow manger, Gilliland began a journey through life that would eventually test her spirit, courage, and, most of all, her power to forgive. Gilliland begins by chronicling her growing up years during a challenging time in Americas history. Her father was drafted into the war and then abandoned his family, leaving Gilliland and her mother to eke out a life for themselves in their tiny cabin, surviving on a diet of wild greens, nuts, and roots. As she weaves through the threads of her lifes tapestry, Gilliland recalls the challenges she confronted during her difficult coming-of-age journey as she suffered through hardships, physical abuse, emotional abandonment, and her own self-destructive behavior. Yet through it all, she never lost the faith. Whats more, she used that faith to begin building a new life and to discover her roots. Destinys Tapestry shares one womans poignant memories of moving from the darkness of abuse into the light of healing.

Destiny’s Wavering Road By: Linda MorningStar Some people are content with the journey they travel along the road of life. They think they’re in control of where they’re heading. Mara Jacobs believes that, and so does her grandmother, Matilda Mathewsen. And although they live very different lives, they are both about to experience an unexpected U-turn as destiny intervenes. Long-haul truck driver Mara’s fate will be sealed when she wakes up on the floor in a motel room far from home. She is surrounded by police and has no idea how she arrived there. Her driving partner and husband Joe is also missing, along with their tractor-trailer. Mara learns Joe is responsible for her dilemma, and anger sends her packing. She returns to her childhood home in Stone Hill Valley, where she was raised by her grandmother, Matilda. Destiny redirects Matilda’s path the moment she steps out her back door with the intent to head to the grocery store. It’s there that she sees the woman in black who has haunted the ancestral home for decades and is considered an omen of death to anyone she appears to. As the mysteries evolve, the two women travel a new road of life together in a most unexpected direction. Destiny’s Wavering Road is a book of fiction, part mystery, part romance, part family saga.
