A Texas Ranger Jim Blawcyzk Story

Fight for Freedom is a story of determination, passion, loss, betrayal, and ultimate triumph. Take a wagon train of former slaves and freemen heading to start a new life in west Texas, add some men determined to keep them from reaching their destination, toss in a rancher who will do anything to drive the settlers from the land they've chosen for their new town, add in an order from the Governor to protect the emigrants, and you have a recipe for a whole passel of trouble for Lieutenant Jim Blawcyzk and his Texas Ranger partners. It will take only one spark to ignite this powder keg.

Please read the description 

A critically acclaimed #1 New York Times bestseller with more than one million copies in print! Now a major motion picture. Gritty with pain, betrayal, and brutality, this incredible true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.

Meet Denver, raised under plantation-style slavery in Louisiana until he escaped the "Man" in the 1960's by hopping a train. Untrusting, uneducated, and violent, he spends 18 years on the streets of Dallas and Fort Worth.

Meet Ron Hall, a self-made millionaire in the world of high-priced deals--an international arts dealer who moves between upscale New York galleries and celebrities.

It seems unlikely that these two men would meet under normal circumstances, but when Deborah Hall, Ron's wife, meets Denver, she sees him through God's eyes of compassion. When Deborah is diagnosed with cancer, she charges Ron with the mission of helping Denver.

From this request, an extraordinary friendship forms between Denver and Ron, changing them both forever. A tale told in two unique voices, Same Kind of Different as Me weaves two completely different life experiences into one common journey. There is pain and laughter, doubt and tears, and in the end a triumphal story that readers will never forget.

Continue this story of friendship in What Difference Do It Make: Stories of Hope and Healing, available now. Same Kind of Different as Me also is available in Spanish.

A Novel

"In March 1865, the long and bitter War between the States is winding down. Till now, twenty-three-year-old Simon Boudlin has evaded military duty thanks to his slight stature, youthful appearance, and utter lack of compunction about bending the truth. But following a barroom brawl in Victoria, Texas, Simon finds himself conscripted, however belatedly, into the Confederate Army. Luckily his talent with a fiddle gets him a comparatively easy position in a regimental band. Weeks later, on the eve of the Confederate surrender, Simon and his bandmates are called to play for officers and their families from both sides of the conflict. There the quick-thinking, audacious fiddler can't help but notice the lovely Doris Mary Dillon, an indentured girl from Ireland, who is governess to a Union colonel's daughter. After the surrender, Simon and Doris go their separate ways. He will travel around Texas seeking fame and fortune as a musician. She must accompany the colonel's family to finish her three years of service. But Simon cannot forget the fair Irish maiden, and vows that someday he will find her again"--Provided by publisher.

A Town, a Team and a Dream

Return once again to the enduring account of life in the Mojo lane, to the Permian Panthers of Odessa--the winningest high school football team in Texas history. Odessa is not known to be a town big on dreams, but the Panthers help keep the hopes and dreams of this small, dusty town going. Socially and racially divided, its fragile economy follows the treacherous boom-bust path of the oil business. In bad times, the unemployment rate barrels out of control; in good times, its murder rate skyrockets. But every Friday night from September to December, when the Permian High School Panthers play football, this West Texas town becomes a place where dreams can come true. With frankness and compassion, Bissinger chronicles one of the Panthers' dramatic seasons and shows how single-minded devotion to the team shapes the community and inspires--and sometimes shatters--the teenagers who wear the Panthers' uniforms.

A boisterous, big-hearted, thoroughly modern family saga, in the spirit of Meg Wolitzer's The Uncoupling or Curtis Sittenfeld's ELIGIBLE, in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brother's wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms, and is no stranger to infidelity herself; she's tired of being the long-suffering wife thanks to her husband's many affairs. Within days of March's arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of allies are divided. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. The Briscoes must reckon with their choices, their capacity for forgiveness, and the confines of family. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, TX combines the archetypes of Greek and Roman mythology with the psychological complexity of a messy family. After all, at some point, we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love?

Caroline's Child Dr. Texas

Welcome to Promise, a small town in the heart of Texas where the neighbors are friendly and you might just find love.

Caroline's Child

Everyone in town is curious, but no one's ever asked who the father of Caroline Daniels's child is--and they never will. The people of this tight community are protective of her and little five-year-old Maggie. They care. Especially rancher Grady Weston, who's beginning to realize he cares even more than most...

Dr. Texas

They call her Dr. Texas. Jane Dickinson, a newly graduated physician from California, will be working at the Promise clinic--but just for a couple years before heading home. They call him Mr. Grouch. Cal Patterson was left at the altar by his out-of-state fiancée, and he's not over it yet. Too bad Jane reminds him so much of the woman he's trying to forget.

The irresistible companion to the #1 New York Times bestseller Dumplin’, soon to be a major motion picture starring Danielle Macdonald and Jennifer Aniston! Millie Michalchuk has gone to fat camp every year since she was a little girl. Not this year. This year she has new plans to chase her secret dream of being a newscaster—and to kiss the boy she’s crushing on. Callie Reyes is the pretty girl who is next in line for dance team captain and has the popular boyfriend. But when it comes to other girls, she’s more frenemy than friend. When circumstances bring the girls together over the course of a semester, they surprise everyone (especially themselves) by realizing that they might have more in common than they ever imagined. A story about unexpected friendship, romance, and Texas-size girl power, this is another winner from Julie Murphy.

It's bad enough that actress/waitress Edie Amos's boyfriend leaves her for a job in Istanbul. And that she's been fired from her only acting job--as a dancing fava bean in an industrial show. But how can she possibly pay the rent on her Chelsea dream apartment? Is nothing permanent in this life? The only thing to do is find a roommate. Unfortunately, she gets two. Tall, blonde, and imposing Greta Stolenbauer is like a dominatrix without a dungeon. Her idea of exercise is smoking while watching the Yoga channel and she eats men for breakfast. Danielle Poitier is a pampered Texas princess determined to make a go of a writing career in New York without her daddy's money and influence. Big talk for a girl who falls for every creep with a corny line. Edie's New York paradise has transformed into a reality TV show with no end date. Goodbye privacy. Hello club-hopping, psycho-dodging, party-throwing insanity. But when Edie's luck goes from bad to worse, she finds support--and friendship--in the unlikeliest of places. Now, for three girls in Chelsea, it's suddenly all about finding the job, chasing the dream, landing the guy, and paving the rent on time. And while men, money, and perfect apartments may come and go, the one thing you can always count on are your friends--wherever you find them.
