Here is the back matter/blurb for Frontiers:

--------FRONTIERS Book Two of the Cybersp@ce Series-------

It is the middle of the 21st Century, and scientists have finally been able to reverse-engineer the highly advanced technology recovered from a crashed, alien ship, and they have successfully constructed Earth's first interstellar spacecraft. They have also learned how to harvest the dark energy that powered the alien ship, and use it to address the world's growing global energy shortage. The Earth Space Alliance is formed to develop and manage the sophisticated technology and the ship, codenamed Frontier, a spacecraft that will carry human beings to the stars, and beyond.

Only after Frontier is sabotaged, leaving Hank Reynolds stranded and alone to die in the Alpha Centauri system, do they discover who is behind a plot to steal the alien technology, and to murder those closest to it.

The Cybersp@ce trilogy follows the Reynolds family as humanity takes its first steps out into the cosmos.

Cybersp@ce  
Nick Reynolds, a former NSA analyst now working for Cyber Command, has found his workload growing, as cyber attacks against the United States begin increasing exponentially.

Frontiers 
Hank, an enthusiastic, civilian test pilot, is also Nick Reynolds' son. Endowed with an intellectual capacity unequaled by anyone else on Earth, Hank is thrilled when he is offered the opportunity to put his gift to good use by constructing and then test piloting humanity's first, interstellar spacecraft, a ship based on technology first discovered by his parents. He's about to take humanity's first test flight out of the solar system to Alpha Centauri, but someone doesn't want him to succeed.

New Beginnings   
The Earth Space Alliance is ready to establish humanity's first off-world colony in another star system after the Earth is nearly destroyed. Nicole Reynolds has been selected to lead the expedition that will select a new home for human beings to live. She will risk everything to establish a foothold for humanity on a strange, alien planet. Only by fending off hostile attacks by an alien race, and by overcoming her own past, will she succeed. 

Cybersp@ce is available today, Frontiers will be coming soon, and New Beginning is well on its way toward publication.

Bio

Anticipation of the Penitent

Synopsis: Anticipation of the Penitent

When Alezea is trapped by the Devil, she bears him a son and knows her life will never be her own. She is the mother of Thomas, a man reared by Satan to be a killer of life’s most innocent – little girls. Alezea lives detached from the horrors committed by her son and from her domination by the entity who uses her as he pleases. Until she meets Martha who shows her a way out. Now Alezea will risk her very soul to free Thomas from his father. The fight to save her son will either redeem Alezea or destroy her forever.

Rachel knows Thomas’ history, yet she believes her presence can transform him. Her belief in Thomas might send her fully into the Devil’s realm or provide an opening for God’s miracles in both of their lives. In a scheme to continue his father’s line, Thomas may ruin his alliance with Rachel or rend himself from the dominion he was born to hold. The impulse to contrive his future takes Thomas to new heights in his lifework as a killer, pushes him toward maturity, and forces him to encounter the astonishing truth of his heritage.

Anticipation of the Penitent depicts the battle between good and evil in one family until it is rendered to its destined completion. Only then will it be known whether Alezea succeeds in her struggle for a life free from Satan’s control.

Salted With Fire

Synopsis: Salted With Fire

Black magic, murder, insanity, humor, honor and devotion. Salted With Fire is a journey of flash fiction and poetry that shows my writing transformation from worldly to wanting to please God.

Flash fiction is my passion; poetry is my release. I love creating a complete story, with a beginning, middle and end, with twists, humor, drama, compassion and horror, all under 1000 words. Salted With Fire isn’t just a book of stories and poetry, it is my journey as a writer, from writing only for the mere joy of it regardless of the message, to writing stories that highlight God’s will for people, even if the stories themselves are not religious in nature.

Inside are fifteen flash fiction pieces and twelve poems with full-color pictures, and short Biblical discussions after each story.
