What a fantastic collection of suspense novels by some amazing authors. I had the opportunity to read one. A Dark Silence by Dana R Lynn.

Dana R Lynn did an outstanding job using sign language as dialogue and maintaining the action. Heidi finds herself face-to-face with a killer with a body on the floor behind him. She escapes his grip, bolts to her car, and races to the…

Who knew my sister and I would find encouragement in the presence of a female cardinal outside our dad’s hospice room window? While the dove cooed and a deer meandered through the woods, a redbird cocked her head inquisitively as she peered inside the window. In an instant, she darted to a nearby tree. Silence filled the room as Dad grew weaker. My sister and I held his hand, expressed our love for the amazing father he’d been to us, and exchanged glances.
