  • - The Rise To Power

    Blood Red Heart is a novel, based on the rise of the Douglas family from lowly barons to the mightiest family in Scotland in the 14th century. Although taken from records and folklore it is not meant to be an entirely accurate historical fact, for records conflict from that time. I have tried to make the book an enjoyable read about a torrid historical period between Scots and English when power was gained by those who took it. That is what the Douglas's did and built a dynasty second to none. Not even the Scots monarchs could match them in power and wealth or soldiery. Follow them for over 100 years from William the Bold, the first Lord, to Archibald the Grim who re-established the line of the Black Douglas. An amazing tale of plunder and dominance against ambitious and would be conqueror. The Douglas's stamped their authority on others by violence and coercion. They mostly died violently in battle and as one fell another leader appeared to continue to enhance power. The first of nobility to support William Wallace. Robert Bruce's best and most resourceful lieutenant. Cohorts to the beginning of the Stuart rise to kingship. Why the Red Douglas branch was formed.

    Out of the blue, Devin Briar gets a press relations job offer from a Cabinet Secretary. When he arrives in Washington D.C. his life takes a turn toward the surreal. Promotions at work seem to be driven by innuendo as much as circumstance, and suddenly he's on the radar of the entire Executive Branch of the government. When the largest fraud in U.S. history is uncovered, Devin somehow finds himself at the center of a growing storm. What no one knows is Devin has a secret weapon in the form of his multiple-phobia challenged best friend Robin Denton. A Nobel Prize winning Physicist, she uses every tool at her disposal to save Devin from being ground into dust by the world around him. Unknown to Devin, a group of movers 'n shakers in the media and government have decided he's their guy. They want a new kind of person to convey what's going on in the world; someone with no political ax to grind, and who's so honest it borders on the naive. Devin Briar fits the mold perfectly. Through it all, Devin's aunt - a powerful U.S. Senator - tries to run interference as she seeks out the people who are behind manipulating her trouble prone nephew. Humor rules the day in this non - political, Washington D.C based story. The funny, bizarre friendship between Devin and Robin will crack you up from start to finish. Individually, each of them don't stand much of a chance in their whirlwind worlds. Together, they are a force of nature no one could have envision...
