Book excerpt: Jesse Mason chose duty over love and endured the hell of captivity comforted only with thoughts of the woman he left behind. Though the physical damage has healed, the emotional battle continues now that he's home. He fakes happy and whole until Ellie is thrust back into his life. She's everything he ever wanted but can never have. Getting wrapped up in her problems is not an option, but neither is leaving her in danger. Ellie Travers salvaged her scarred heart and landed headfirst in a horrible marriage. Now divorced, broke, and desperate to care for her ailing mother, she accepts the only job offered—Office Manager at The Arsenal. Working for the man who broke her heart should be simple compared to escaping a hellacious marriage. But only she can help Jesse win the final war for his soul, and she'll do anything to save him—even at the risk of losing herself. The battle lines have been drawn. Together they must navigate the minefields of love and sacrifice because failure is not an option.

Book excerpt: Battle Scars: Some Wounds Arent Seen is a collection of poems written by a veteran as he struggles through post-war life. He deals with the daily conflict of receiving care from the Veterans Administration and breaking through the plausible deniability of the Government, including the Department of Defense. The poems flow with the emotions of the poetsometimes dark and morbid, light and enthusiastic, realistic, mythic. Writing these poems has granted therapy that the Veterans Administration, in their confrontational perspective, was unable to grant. This therapy begins by putting pen to paper or flesh to keyboard and allowing the emotions to flow constructively into poetry. At this point it does not matter whether the poetry is good or not, its purpose is to allow release. If others enjoy or find insight in your poetry, it is a bonus.

Book excerpt: "The rapid-fire format of this work is much like an automatic weapon, but this weapon does not spit out metal rounds, it discharges love, understanding and compassion. I know from first-hand experience that survival is not won from our own efforts, it is won in collaboration with family, friends and professionals who care, and with the love of God that is always present, but not always sought out. This book will inspire those who suffer PTS and their loved ones to take the steps necessary to get better. It will also help the rest of us to better understand our responsibility for those we send off to war and who then return filled with experiences and scars that will forever shape them. I know I would have benefited from this book if I had read it after my return from Vietnam over 40 years ago. The military that teaches soldiers how to kill failed to later teach us how to live. It is good that the situation is changing for our returning warriors. Perhaps this book will cause that change to quicken even more. I hope so for the lives of those scarred by PTS. The healing process is extremely slow, is never complete, and can be painful for all involved. This book will be a source of healing for many." - John A. Riherd, First Lieutenant, U.S. Army, Vietnam, Bronze Star Medal recipient "SCARS captures vivid emotions, events and people realistically. We hold our troops in our hearts, and our imaginations carry us along in compassion and prayer. This story gives a real picture of real people...all the stuff of their hearts, their pain and suffering, the endurance, the anger, the horror, the support team in the war zone and at home. A great read, but oh so painful and yet so hopeful." -Mary Sue Richen, M.A., Catholic Chaplain "This multi-perspective story portrays the impact of combat on hearts and minds with painful realism. Here we learn to pray as we think of the suffering our soldiers, their families and loved ones endure under the strain and scars of war."

Book excerpt: From a writer whose work has been called “breathtaking and dazzling” by Roxane Gay, this moving, illuminating, and multifaceted memoir explores, in a series of essays, the emotional scars we carry when dealing with mental and physical illnesses—reminiscent of The Collected Schizophrenias and An Unquiet Mind. In this stunning debut, Laura Lee weaves unforgettable and eye-opening essays on a variety of taboo topics. In “History of Scars” and “Aluminum’s Erosions,” Laura dives head-first into heavier themes revolving around intimacy, sexuality, trauma, mental illness, and the passage of time. In “Poetry of the World,” Laura shifts and addresses the grief she feels by being geographically distant from her mother whom, after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s, is relocated to a nursing home in Korea. Through the vivid imagery of mountain climbing, cooking, studying writing, and growing up Korean American, Lee explores the legacy of trauma on a young queer child of immigrants as she reconciles the disparate pieces of existence that make her whole. By tapping into her own personal, emotional, and psychological struggles in these powerful and relatable essays, Lee encourages all of us to not be afraid to face our own hardships and inner truths.
