How about a hero with a heart, a conscience, and just enough combat experience to make the bad guys nervous?

He's Jesse Yates, ex-Navy SEAL, a warrior
learning how to live in peace...until peace refuses to cooperate. 

He survived the battlefields of Iraq only to discover that civilian life can be
just as dangerous. Now an investigator for Palm Court Detectives in Mobile, Alabama, Jesse faces terrorists beneath the Mobile River, murderous thugs hiding deep in
Delta swamps, powerful men with deadly secrets, and desperate people with
nowhere left to run.

  • 1943. Mobile, Alabama. As the wartime city erupts with opportunity, corruption, and fear, a 4-F football hero teams up with a pretty reporter and an AWOL soldier to stop a killer before another young girl disappears.

  • She climbed into an eighteen-wheeler to save her family—not to fall for the one man she never expected to meet. Annalisa Rochon, a Cajun girl from Louisiana, collides—literally and figuratively—with a corporate bigshot on a
    Chicago loading dock. Sparks fly as two people from opposite worlds discover that the longest journeys are sometimes the ones leading home.



  • Growing up isn't easy. Neither is being a young cougar separated from everything familiar. When two small-town boys discover a displaced yearling cougar following them through the woods, they quickly realize the animal is in danger. A perfect read for adults who remember what being eleven felt like—and for younger readers discovering it for themselves.

I've been a soldier, a newspaper reporter, a copywriter and a long-haul truck driver. And almost every day, I came across characters and events that would not leave me alone until I sat down at the keyboard and told their stories.


I startes out a Hoosier but now my wife Carol and I live in her hometown of Mobile, Alabama. I may complain about the heat in summer and lack of snow in winter, but the Gulf Coast is the perfect setting for Jesse Yates and the rest of the
Palm Court crew.
