The next book from Spearfish Lake Tales, Three From Bradford, is now available for preorder. This is a little different, in that it's three shorter novels under one cover.

Here's the summary:

Dodging Mom: Racially exotic Sonja Lambert holds dual citizenship. Her mother Zivah, an Israeli Army officer, shows up expecting Sonja to do her duty in the Israeli army. Sonja, an American at heart, has no choice but to hide with her boyfriend Scott Tyler's family. It's not be best circumstances for a romance, but when things get moving quickly things take some unexpected turns!

Peeking Over the Fence: At the Bradford Class of 1988 tenth reunion Scott and Sonja Tyler are surprised to meet a beautiful, personable blonde woman, Dr. Eve McClellan -- previously named Denis, one of the most disliked boys in the class. The upcoming Halloween party is a perfectly good excuse to explore a little of what it's like on the other side of the gender fence.

With A Little Help: Pat McDonald is headed for the Gulf War in 1990 when he meets a classmate, Cindy Yeager, who has broken up with her former boyfriend, Russ Bradstreet; it turns into a one-night stand. Cindy winds up going back to Russ, and years later they ask Pat to help them out at time of intense personal sorrow. He agrees, with long and profound consequences.

There are a total of twenty-four chapters among the three books.

You can preorder Three From Bradford for as little as $19.99 through the Spearfish Lake Tales Store or through the web page. Preorders will be sent sometime on the afternoon of August 25, Eastern Standard Time.

You're assuming there is a policy . . .

There is, sort of. I decided to stick my toe in the water with "Peeking Over The Fence", oh, a year ago, just to see what the reaction would be. At the time, someone who noticed it asked when I would be putting it on the site, and I promised that I would.

As to the rest of the books on Amazon: some of them, especially my early books, were first posted on SLT and elsewhere without benefit of editing. I decided to not put them on the wider market of Amazon without having them re-edited. That's a lot of work for my editors, especially with the new stuff, so it's gone slowly.

The plan is ultimately to have books on Amazon shortly after I finish posting them on SLT. It's getting closer but we're not there yet.
