YOU NEVER HAD MONEY TROUBLE LIKE THIS
When unemployed crime reporter Harry Truman gets a note from a local mission thanking him for his generous contribution--to the tune of a half million dollars--he's reasonably certain he had nothing to do with it. 

Internal Revenue Service agent Marion Russell wants nothing more than to make a name for himself with his employers. (Well, and to spend more time with his show dog.) Agent Russell is certain that Truman has some undeclared source of income--and will go to any bizarre lengths to prove it. 

Meanwhile, record label owner Buddy Powell has found that his latest marketing scheme--stage a fake kidnapping of country music sensation Darla Lovell--isn't working out as planned. His fixit men, Sherman Clayton and "Bull" Ron Taylor, have bungled the job, and now the fake-kidnapping has turned into the real thing. But what happened to the money? 

FBI Special Agents Murphy and Reed are heading an investigation into the kidnapping. The demands were met, the money was dropped--but the girl is still missing. And Murphy is certain that Truman must have something to do with it. 

All these oddballs collide in a tale of poor planning, miscommunication, and greed. Now, Truman has got to figure out who stuck him with this halo if he doesn't want to get fitted with prison stripes--or a harp and wings...All Rights Reserved

Take Me Home {Completed} by TheRiverRunsDeep

"Please . . . don't cry. You had to have known I'd do this at some point." *** Parker Sims is the class clown but that doesn't mean he's easy to fool. And that's just what Nola B. is good at - fooling people. She's got the whole school believing that her scars, bruises, and broken bones are from being clumsy. However, Parker sees through the lies. He knows there's another reason why she flinches at the touch of other people, the way she's alert and watchful, how she wears long sleeves (even in the middle of the summer), or even the way she keeps losing weight, staggering to an unhealthy size. Parker saw all the signs; it killed him from the inside out to know what she was going through. So, he called the cops and reported his suspension that Nola was being abused. That was a total joke, he found out... Parker thought of everything in the book but each attempt, to get someone to notice she was being abused, failed - epically. He'd no other options . . . except for one thing. . . Kidnap her - take her away from whoever was abusing her; give her the life she deserves. It was a crazy idea, and he knew it - that's exactly why he shook the idea out of his head. . . That was until he saw her come to school with a black eye and limping while holding her sides. Parker snapped and did the one thing he swore he'd never do- Kidnap Nola B., for her own protection. *** Warning: Contains abuse and harsh language.

Upon the discovery of the murder of the leader's sister, the secret society wanted blood. The leader was pulled into two different directions. One to find the bastard who killed his sister. Another to find the girl who holds the key to either destroy all that they have worked for or win the deadliest of wars ever seen in history.
