About Mindfire by Allen Steadham

“For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required.”

Leia Hamilton can move things and set them on fire with her mind.

Leia’s father and step-mother tried to hide their past: a time when they were part of a team of superheroes. But despite being disbanded for over twenty years following a series of tragedies, their problems were passed to their children and Leia finds that her future collides with their past.

In the diverse world of human and superhuman, heroes and villains, friends and enemies, some of Leia’s choices have terrible consequences. For Leia, this leads to a personal crossroads and a search for redemption.

Not your normal superhero novel, Mindfire isn’t about secret identities, costumes, or evil plots endangering the world. Instead, self-discovery and adaptation is at the forefront as the reader follows the lives of the characters who are unafraid to show love and explore spirituality.

Can redemption and renewed grace weather the flames of absolute power and superhuman strength?

About Bully Boys

Boarding school has always been seen as an opportunity to get a good education, and to learn a bit about the realities of life…. But just what does that mean?

Unfortunately in the past and possibly even still today, that has meant children having to endure a certain amount of bullying and brutality, from fellow students and also from the teaching staff!

This book consists of a collection of incidents experienced by a young man called Hedge, along with a few of his friends, during their teenage years at boarding school.

Hedge is one of the main characters in the acclaimed Hedge & Cole Thriller Series by Kevin Bradley.

Bully Boys is a one-off collection, and can be read as a supplement to the Hedge & Cole series, or as a perfectly entertaining book in its own right.

Many of the events are brutal and sadistic. Others are just simply bullying at its worst. But all of them help to explain part of the makeup of Hedge’s nervous personality.

Some of the situations described in this collection are from existing Hedge & Cole thrillers, whilst others are completely new material.

Most of the experiences detailed here relate to bullying that occurred during Hedge’s time at Upperdale College, but some of them are on a lighter theme, and there are several incidents that he would have been only too pleased to remember!

Lady Justice and the Bad Seed by Robert Thornhill

Walt is surprised to learn that his old partner, Ox, has a brother. Ox had never mentioned Lenny who was serving time in prison.

As Lenny’s ministry grows by leaps and bounds, Walt and his friends are skeptical. Was Lenny’s conversion real or is it an elaborate con?
Walt is faced with the age-old question — can people really change? What do you think?

About Cliché

I thought I had it all – the perfect life, with the perfect arrangement, with the perfect guy.

To the world, Kevin Peyton is the heartthrob Oscar nominee. To me, he’s my best friend, with some sexy benefits.

But then I got a taste of his world. A world where being mobbed by fans, violated by intruders, and stripped of all privacy is the norm. I never realized how brutal being in the spotlight would be.

I didn’t fit into his world. I didn’t fit into his plans. I only wish I’d discovered that before falling in love with him and changing the game plan.

Sometimes changing the game plan changes more than the game. Sometimes it changes your everything.

About A Peach For Big Jim

In 1947 racially-charged Mills Hollow, South Carolina, Chloe Mason knows not to go near the Negroes who live in the river shacks, especially sixteen-year-old Big Jim. He’s something of a myth, a big black boy known for eating opossums and howling at the moon. At least that’s what Chloe’s brother, Caleb, and her Pa, a fiddle-playing Southerner who waves a Confederate flag, tell her. Yet, when Chloe slips into Foxhole Swamp, it’s Big Jim who saves her from an alligator. She secretly befriends Big Jim and takes it upon herself to teach him to read, even bringing him a forbidden peach from Widow Jones’ tree. Chloe meets Big Jim in a tree fort he constructs in the woods, and together they endure the injustices Big Jim suffers – like being whipped by Chloe’s father for trespassing. But once her father discovers their secret meetings and is ready to lynch Big Jim, Chloe’s loyalty is tested to the breaking point, calling into question everything she’s come to believe about herself, her family, and what truly matters most.
