  A hidden genius, an ambitious shipbuilder, and a daring deception—can she prove her worth without losing her heart? 
    
  Eli Kennebrae plans to revolutionize cargo transportation on the Great Lakes. But his grandfather's meddling obligates him to an arranged engagement. Though Josie Zahn is kindhearted and strikes his interest, Eli needs an engineer for his ship, not a fiancée. 
    
  Josie has admired Eli for years, but to him, she’s just “one of the Zahn girls.” Worse, society expects her to marry, not pursue her passion for mathematics and engineering. If she could only get Eli’s attention, she could help him achieve his goals. 
    
  Then “Professor Josephson,” a brilliant mathematical mind, provides the analyses to make Eli's ship design a reality. As Eli finds unexpected kinship in the professor’s work, he remains unaware of the truth—Josie is the genius behind the numbers. When deception and ambition collide, will Eli see Josie for who she truly is before it’s too late?

  The Traveler, together with his friends, travels to different places and taking on the people and the bad guys that no one else wants to challenge. Sometimes even the local authority figures refuses to do anything when it comes to them– or they feel that they can't do anything about it at all. 
  The Traveler makes his way to different towns and does his best to rid the evil out, so that the people can live in peace. 
  It isn't long before those that need his help are trying to get in touch with him because they need his assistance. 
  This young man is quickly gaining a reputation as a merciless force of good. The more that he does and the more places he goes, the more people know of him and try to reach out. 
  He may seem to have a heavy chip on his shoulder, but he is also born again in the faith of Christianity. His relationship with his faith does not mean that he avoids killing the bad guys, however. 
  When the stakes are high, he turns into a killer that is not only ruthless, but has deadly aim. In his heart, he remains a Christian. He believes that he has been ordained by God, chosen to be the one to carry out the will of God.

  Some Great Little Things...

  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.
  SOME GREAT LITTLE THINGS: I am going to speak to you for a few minutes to-night upon what I shall term "Some Great Little Things." I speak of them as great, because of their supreme importance, and I speak of them as little, because they come in a class of things which are usually looked upon by many people as small and unimportant.

  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
   
  From their pens to your your ears.
