"A heartwarming and absorbing account of matching a human and a canine."- Kirkus Indies

A memoir of second chances, healing, and how rescuing a dog rescued me

Having never had a dog of his own before, Don was not prepared for what it meant to adopt one of the most behaviorally difficult rescues in the shelter. But something about Barbie, a mutt that everyone had given up on and so fearful and unresponsive that she was within days of being put down, convinced Don to open his home and his heart for the first time to a canine companion, changing both of their lives forever.

Interspersed with Don’s most poignant memories of volunteering at his local animal shelter, The Mutt for Me follows the many misadventures of Don and Barbie on their mutual journey of growth and healing. You’ll see Barbie transform from the terrified, despondent recluse to the lively and almost always well-behaved dog she is today.

As the first-time dog dad of a pup in need of significant behavioral development, Don shows that with enough love, patience, and dedication, anyone can provide a home to a rescue animal. The Mutt for Me is a heartwarming story about how our pets have the capacity to transform and heal us as much as we can do the same for them.

SLEEP FOR THE REST OF US:

IMPROVING THE SLEEP LIFE OF SENIORS


Sleep for the Rest of Us by Timothy H. Monk is now available from Amazon as a paperback ($14.99), Kindle book ($9.99)or Kindle Unlimited (free with subscription)
We all have a love life, a social lie, a work life, and a recreation life. We also have a sleep life. This fairly short and approachable book is about how folks over 60 (seniors) can improve their own sleep life. It was written to help older adults sleep better, because seniors are very often distressed by sleep problems. The book focusses on problems relating to falling asleep, staying asleep and maintaining alertness during the day. It aims to point out some fairly minor behavioral changes and attitude adjustments which may help improve a senior’s sleep life, as well as describing some of the underlying theory and experimental evidence that underpin them. Some of this advice runs counter to conventional wisdom which may apply to younger adults, but which may be inappropriate to the senior.

Morals in the Margin


A party at an abandoned mall. A night that changes everything.

For Nolan Foster, stepping out of his quiet, predictable life is no easy task. But when a chance invitation lures him, he’s drawn into a world of neon lights, secrets, and danger. Among the laughter and games, something sinister brews. And when the first scream cuts through the night, there's no turning back.

But Nolan isn’t the only one with a story to tell.

Told through both Nolan and Maya’s perspectives, Morals in the Margin unravels a late-80s murder mystery where alliances shift, trust shatters, and nothing is quite what it seems. As the chaos of the party unfolds, moral lines blur, and the familiar becomes unrecognisable.

BONE HASH

 Book Cover Bone Hash


BONE HASH


In the vast untamed desert of northern Arizona, Aideen Connor signs on as lead archaeologist at Moenkopi Ridge hoping to find peace after witnessing her husband’s violent death. Instead, she stumbles into a mystery as ancient and dangerous as the land itself. Shortly after she arrives, Aideen’s team uncovers a “bone hash,” human bones showing evidence of prehistoric cannibalism. Her job takes on a darker turn when a brutal murder shocks the residents of the nearby Hopi Reservation. Unsettling connections begin to emerge between her excavation and the crime.

Trust from the local community fractures, threats escalate, and Aideen’s world begins to unravel. First her boss blames her when the entire bone hash is stolen. Then local Native Americans accuse her of disrespecting their ancestors. Violent threats against her ensue: a sheep is killed, viciously eviscerated and left under her residential trailer. A photo of her dead husband is stolen from her bedroom and stuck in its blood. All threats point to a grim reality: someone wants her gone.

As her desperation grows, Aideen turns to Frank Nakai, the BLM Special Agent assigned to the case. But Frank’s presence is as complicating as it is compelling, leaving Aideen torn between grief and her unexpected attraction. When Frank is ordered to return to his office in Santa Fe, Aideen must navigate a maze of buried truths with only her dog, Dakota for companionship. Every clue leads her closer to danger and the secrets buried at Moenkopi Ridge. Secrets that could cost her more than her career—they could cost her life.

Detective Anaya Nazario is haunted by her father’s unsolved murder. When a serial killer preys on Mexican immigrants, she senses a connection—and refuses to let the case go cold. Teaming up with her former lover, FBI Agent Blake Huxley, she hunts a ruthless predator. But is this the same monster who killed her father?


A venomous killer is on the loose, leaving bodies marked with an eerie tattoo. LAPD’s best, Nazario and Huxley, are on the hunt—complicating their already tangled history with a baby on the way.
