Military Stories

She made a promise at her father's grave — she would heal, never harm. For seven years and three deployments, Navy Corpsman Madison Veil kept it. Then came Mosul, a rifle in the dirt, and thirty-five seconds to decide. Now she carries two truths that will not reconcile: the promise she made, and the six lives she saved by breaking it. Some promises are not broken. They evolve. Madison's Promise is the story of how.

A tale of remembrance and learning to keep what is good about the past while embracing the future and learning to accept new challenges. Also a lesson in that healing is not a destination, but a never-ending journey.

'Johnny Goes to War' covers the almost four years after Johnny graduated from high school. One early reader of the book raved: "'Johnny Goes to War' is that perfect melding of heart pounding military action and scalding hot, yet tastefully presented, sex. It is 'Saving Private Ryan' meets 'Debbie Does Dallas,' yet it is as sensitively written as 'Doctor Zhivago' with characters as complex as those in 'From Here to Eternity.' (Thanks, Mom)
