Summary

The big man at the window, as though fascinated by the flood of light within the room, remained for a long time staring. Finally he turned, and instantly he grappled with the smaller shadow behind him.
"It is I!" whispered the Cheyenne hastily. "It is Standing Antelope. Take your hand from my throat, Thunder Moon!"
He was free, and the two slipped silently through the garden, through the hedges, and back into the adjoining woods where they had left their four horses.
"I, also, have seen," said the boy.
"What?" asked the other.
"I have seen the reason that brought you from the Suhtai and made you travel all these moons into the land of the white men. I have seen his face!"
"You have seen him? Then who is he, Standing Antelope?"

    The son and stepdaughter of rival drug dealers, Chase Halloway and Allie Boden know the odds are stacked against them, but love doesn't care about odds. Love only wants to find a way. Chase Halloway knows he'll take over his father's empire when old Galt Halloway's done, but he has dreams. Plans that have nothing to do with the drug ring his father's so carefully built since Chase's mom died years ago. Untamed and unmoored, when he sees Allie for the first time he realizes maybe the future doesn't have to be so lonely. Protected by Chase during a blow-out brawl in her stepfather's bar, Allie can't believe the tattooed, muscled man who has eyes only for her really wants her...forever. With a past marred by her mother's death and a stepfather who won't let her leave for sinister reasons she doesn't understand, she wants to choose Chase and her own fate. Drawn together by an attraction so strong they can't find words for it, and unable to resist a physical temptation so strong they can't deny it, can Chase and Allie's love survive kidnapping, murder, false accusations and more? The Breaking Away Series Boxed Set contained the entire romantic suspense trilogy: Finding Allie, Chasing Allie, and Keeping Allie. Each is a full-length novel, and by the end of book three Chase and Allie get the happily ever after they so richly deserve.

    Booker Taliaferro Washington (April 5, 1856 - November 14, 1915) was an American educator, author, orator, and adviser to several presidents of the United States. Between 1890 and 1915, Washington was the dominant leader in the African American community and of the contemporary black elite. Washington was from the last generation of black American leaders born into slavery and became the leading voice of the former slaves and their descendants. They were newly oppressed in the South by disenfranchisement and the Jim Crow discriminatory laws enacted in the post-Reconstruction Southern states in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
    THE CULTIVATION OF STABLE HABITS: I am going to speak with you a few minutes this evening upon the matter of stability. I want you to understand when you start out in school, that no individual can accomplish anything unless he means to stick to what he undertakes.

    YOUNG SHERLOCK HOLMES & JOHN WATSON 
    The case of the missing Shetland Pony. 
    This completely new story I have written involves the 10 year old boys who will be the great detective Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, his assistant, when they grow up, this is their formative years where they perfect their skills before adulthood on what my appear to be inconsequential subjects, but the principle remains the same. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, a violin Holme's musical instrument of choice and is energetic and the closing music ends the tale on a more restrained mode and only about 1 minute. Even so only $1.25 for your enjoyment. 
    The story itself runs to about just under 7 minutes and is of course a short story, it is read in my own voice.The story involves the the disappearance of a Shetland Pony called Buttercup belonging to the young daughter, Florence, 0f a the Duke & Duchess of Belgravia who lived in a mansion near Hyde Park in London in the late 1900's and Holmes uses his powers of deduction and observation to track down the pony to a gambling man who almost sold the poor creature to pay off his debts.. Needless to say Holmes solves the mystery, recovers the pony to Florence and her parents delight, with aplomb and goes onto his next case. 
    The stories are designed to be entertaining to children of approximately the same age around 10 years old due to the characters involved. 
    I do hope you and your children, if applicable, enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!

    Somebody thought it would be a great idea to send us to the Troll Court. 
    Because somebody imagined I might be the perfect person to help with a certain wild and crazy plan of Their Majesties' concoction. 
    They want to restore the lost city of Farringale. 
    I can only say that I heartily approve. 
    There is the tiny problem of how, of course; but who better to dig up the truth than the Society’s most colourful agents? 
    Off questing we go, armed with a long list of questions, two winning smiles (well, three, if you count the Baron’s — and who wouldn’t?) and a certain Dappledok pup. 
    Only, history has a way of being... slippery. 
    The only way to find out what really happened at Farringale is to go back there, poke it with a stick, and see what falls out. And try not to die in the process. 
    It'll be fine. With my enchanted pipes in tow, a unicorn at my side and three trusty allies at my back, what could possibly go wrong?
