  "In war novels authors typically feature ships such as destroyers, battleships, or aircraft carriers, but not support vessels. By focusing on the support vessels, Parotti provides listeners with a different view of the two wars and leaves them with an appreciation for the crafts' significance along with the men who took care of these damaged ships." —National Maritime Historical Society 
   
   
   
  Assigned to US Navy Rescue Tug, the ATR-3X, not long after the German surrender in North Africa, Ensign Hal Goff and four other officers must support the Allied invasion of Sicily and Italy, shepherding navy ships to and from the bitter fighting. With the Allied advance finally stopped cold along the Winter Line beneath Monte Cassino, Hal and his ship become part of the grueling invasion of Anzio and the seemingly endless stalemate across Anzio's bloody beaches. 
   
   
   
  Phillip Parotti's thrilling novel treats his listeners to gripping World War II naval action in the Mediterranean Sea.

  Eeli~ 
   
  I've been training my entire life for this; I need to be the best, the best fighter, the best dragon rider in the entire brotherhood. The only problem is that my bonded dragon, Bodhi, and I can't seem to get it together. One minute I think we're connecting properly, and the next she's taking off, leading me to the one guy I don't want to know: Slash. He's basically the opposite of me in every way, and I don't get why he's suddenly everywhere I turn, but I can't deny how he makes me feel when he looks at me. 
   
  Slash~ 
   
  Three years ago my sister and I had to come to a new town and started new schools without our parents' unconditional love and support. My uncle's an uncaring drunk, so I'm doing the best I can to keep us both clothed and fed with only an after school job. If I didn't have her to live for, the loneliness would be excruciating. Now, with only a few months until graduation, I've suddenly made a friend because of my sister, and another guy keeps stumbling into me who I think needs help: Eeli. I don't understand why no one else sees how oddly he's behaving, but I can't deny my attraction for him is growing with every mishap. 
   
  Contains mature themes.

  The Wrong Man. The Real Killer. Time is Running Out. 
  A brutal murder. A swift arrest. Justice should be simple, but in Shannon, Oregon, nothing ever is. 
  Sheriff Everett Wallace and Deputy Jake Reeves know the price of getting things wrong. Both men have scars—some from war, some from regrets they never outran. So when they arrest a man accused of a gruesome killing, they are sure they’ve done their duty. 
  But then Jake receives a cryptic note: You got the wrong man. 
  Everett dismisses it as a cruel joke, but Jake can’t shake the feeling in his gut. He’s seen innocent men fall before, and the weight of one more on his conscience might just break him. But reopening the case means defying his best friend, turning against the town’s thirst for justice, and putting himself and his family in the crosshairs. There are powerful forces at work in Shannon, and someone will do anything—lie, threaten, even kill—to make sure their secrets stay buried. 
  With the trial only days away and the gallows waiting, Jake and Everett face an impossible choice: let an innocent man hang and live with the guilt, or fight for the truth and risk becoming the next target. 
  One thing is certain—before this is over, blood will stain the streets of Shannon. 
  A high-stakes Western thriller with mystery, betrayal, and a heart-pounding final reckoning. Justice will be served—but at what cost?

  The Impossible Lie

  The wind of change was in the air, whipping up emotions and pointing the way to perhaps some truth in the God entity. What he once knew as defined fact with hard, emboldened boundaries had morphed into a distant replica barely resembling his life. Had his values changed? No. Had his mission changed? No, but it had expanded into worldwide humanitarian issues, and while broadening his awareness, he felt confused yet simultaneously more alive than ever. What was the purpose or meaning of life? While it was an age-old question, he searched to put the newly added pieces to the puzzle of his life in place.  
  What of Trinity’s announcement bomb? Was he even halfway prepared? And Mays, was it worth investigating? He’d never had a brother other than Marines, but never a brother in the flesh. Had his mission as a civilian with immense ability put him too close to the edge of discovery? Was he that easily defined?  
  With the infiltration of feelings, hurricane forces of emotion rattled him to the core. Everywhere he looked, there were lies. There was no such thing as impossible; that was a lie meant to discourage people too afraid to challenge the claim. No, sir, not him; he wouldn’t give in to the lies of limitations and impossibilities. 
  While his reflection in the mirror was the same, the cocoon encapsulating his heart had weakened. Could he perform his missions while allowing Trinity to stoke his heart? The void once in his soul was filling at rocket speed. Would this indicate he was becoming whole for once in his life?  
  Dive deep into his reality and determine for yourself. Is Babe worth saving?
