Thirty-six-year-old Everett Lentry just wants to run away. Rooted to his idealized past, he is struggling to find his way in a world that never listened to his youthful dreams and visions. Trapped within the merry-go-round of a loveless thirteen-year marriage, Everett's delicate infrastructure is held together only by the unconditional love he has for his two daughters. Fatherhood is his sole companion. While on another tedious business trip in Denver, Everett meets someone who taunts his perceptions about everything. While Everett stands at a new crossroads in life, Nicole Summers presents him with an alternative, alluring path that stretches and twists his imbedded childhood beliefs. As he attempts to escape his facade of a life, Everett must face a clichéd scenario-to either remain true to his need to find inner peace or indulge in the temptation that lies within his immediate grasp. In this poignant tale of struggles, love, and loss, one man sets out on a journey of self-discovery that leads him to a relationship that will test his fundamental beliefs and to a destiny he never could have imagined.
The Koh-i-Noor diamond known as the Mountain of Light, the world's largest diamond, was found in India, traveled from Golconda to the Mughal palaces in the north. Fought over, cursed at and occasionally lost, it finally reached the Sikhs in the Punjab, only to be seized by British agents eager to please young Queen Victoria. It now lies in the Tower of London where some say its curse controls the fate of the Windsor family. In Chasing the Mountain of Light, Kevin Rushby pursues the dramatic career of the Koh-i-Noor on a journey to the heart of Indian culture meeting dealers, smugglers, and petty crooks along the way. It's another adventure from Rushby whom the Washington Post recently compared to William S. Burroughs and Arthur Rimbaud.

True love is priceless—or is it? Sheikh Masoud Khalidizack is terminally bored by palace life. With his elder brother inheriting his father’s responsibilities and his younger brother treating life like one big party, he often feels left behind.

That all changes with the arrival of headstrong Fleur Summers, a beautiful archaeologist bent on finding the legendary Solomon Diamond. It was once part of the Khalidizack family’s heritage, but now it is lost to history. Her reputation depends on finding it and putting it into a museum, but the distractingly handsome Sheikh who hired her certainly isn’t helping. In fact, Masoud intends to restore the diamond to its rightful place – in the Khalidizack palace. Now, they have to overcome their mutual mistrust and simmering attraction to find the artifact that could bring glory to them both. In a race against ruthless rivals that spans continents, finding the prize will bring them together or destroy one of their lives.
