Salim led them out of the mansion and onto the steps. When all of them were out on the front steps, he turned briefly and held a hand at the open door. âNever leave the doors open or unlocked. Anytime someone passes through, they must make sure it closes behind them. This is the first level of security for the mansion.âÂ
âIfâGod forbid, we would ever have an attack of some sort, at least they
This summer is shaping up to be a work one. Between publishing books, Stacy’s markets with FlannelnChubs, and other work to keep the bills paid, we will likely be staring at the computer screen until our eyes go blurry. That being said, we will need to do our best to get out to the beach […]

The SUV hummed softly as it worked its way up the long inclines. Matt had really no idea what to expect at the property. He only knew that if it had been owned by his grandfather, it was probably going to be interestingâand perhaps even mysterious. One thing would certain, however, and that would be that life would be very differentâŚ

My fingers are on the keyboard, but they aren’t moving. No tapping is heard from the keys. There are other things on my mind than writing. What things you ask? Well, I’ll tell you.
