  They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. For Preacher, that road begins at a remote trading post in the Bitterroot Mountains. At first, it's a friendly reunion with his old buddies Audie and Nighthawk. But then, a young Indian woman and her grandfather are attacked by a vicious gang of thieves—and all hell breaks loose. When the smoke clears, the gang's leader, who goes by the name Mack Ozark, has escaped, the grandfather is dead, and the woman is mortally wounded. Before she dies, she begs Preacher to look after a bundle she is carrying. Inside, wrapped in a blanket, are two blond-haired, blue-eyed babies. They're clearly twins—and clearly not hers . . .  
  Who do the babies belong to? And what is a man like Preacher supposed to do with them? The only clue is a pair of gemstone necklaces around the babies' necks. Preacher's friend Audie recognizes the stones as star garnets from a nearby valley, where they head off to find the twins' mother. Along the way, they realize they're being followed by Mack Ozark . . . He knows the babies' father stole a fortune in jewels. He knows the babies' blanket contains a map to the hidden gems. But he doesn't know just how far a man like Preacher will go to protect those little angels—and send a devil like Ozark straight to hell . . .

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  In the heart of 1830s Texas, a land of sprawling prairies and simmering discontent, the seeds of revolution are sown. The iron rule of Mexican General Santa Anna pushes Anglo settlers and proud Tejanos to the brink, igniting a desperate struggle for liberty that will forever scar the land and its people. "Forged in Fire and Blood" plunges into this maelstrom through the intertwined destinies of three unforgettable characters. 
  Declan Brody, a veteran haunted by past wars, sought only a quiet life on his Texas homestead. But as tyranny tightens its grip, from the defiant stand at Gonzales to the legendary siege of the Alamo, he is forced to take up arms once more. His journey through the revolution’s most brutal battles, including the Goliad Massacre and the pivotal charge at San Jacinto, becomes a testament to human resilience and a harrowing exploration of the true cost of conflict. 
  Catalina "Lina" de la Garza, an educated Tejano woman from a respected San Antonio family, initially places her faith in the Mexican Constitution of 1824. But as Santa Anna’s centralist regime crushes federalist hopes and incites brutal conflict, she witnesses the siege of her beloved Bexar and endures the terrifying hardships of the Runaway Scrape. Torn between cultures and loyalties, Lina’s spirit awakens, transforming her into a courageous advocate for her people in the turbulent aftermath of war, fighting for their place in a newly forged, uncertain republic. 
  "Eighteen Minutes to Freedom" is a sweeping, action-packed e

  WITH PASSION AND DARING, THEY SEIZED THE PROMISE OF A NEW LAND...
  The seventh book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
  The upheavels in the new colony are frequent and radical. A governor has recently been fired, a rebel government has been forced to retreat, and a new governor has arrived in Australia.
  Will this mean redemption for the freed prisoners in the exile colony? The country needs its loyal fighters — and Jenny Hawley and her family certainly belong there in spite of their past.
  Above all, the new governor needs men of Andrew Hawley and Justin Broome's calibre to be able to transform the country into a thriving, independent nation.
  Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.
