|  | | Brothers Keeper Twin brothers take different paths, but who is taking care of who? Second in the Mysterious Ways series from River Oak comes out in January.
In “Brother’s Keeper” our focal characters are twin brothers who couldn’t be more different. A classic triangle is present as the same girl is connected to both men. She loves one and the other loves her, nothing new there but there is one small complicating factor in that she is something of a jinx or a jonah. Things happen around her, and though it never really seems to be her fault, the brother she loves doesn’t want to be in the same state with her. | |  | | Cowboys Don't Read Poetry A chapbook of cowboy poetry, flash fiction, and cowboy musings that are delightful and entertaining.

The only problem was, they started expecting him to perform in the role.
In Mysterious Ways, author Terry Burns takes the reader on a journey through the old West, as the career of a thief and gunman, Amos reveals not only human nature, but divine nature as well. From the moment Amos steals a parson’s clothing and disguises himself as a preacher, his life begins to change, and, consequently, he changes the lives of those he meets. Terry has crafted a novel of uncommon power and force, revealing both sin and redemption, while lifting the reader to a higher plane where faith and prayer play a strong role in the lives of men and women as God reveals his hand through | |  | | Shepherds Son Mr. Burns stands in a long line of cowboy storytellers, and Shepherd’s Son is vintage Terry Burns. In this deceptively simple story of a sheepherder clashing with cattle ranchers and finding true love in the process, he spins another one of his signature yarns of grace and subtlety. Reading a Terry Burns novel is like sitting around a campfire out on the trail under a sky full of moon and stars, listening to tales shared by the cowpokes in their soft, unhurried drawl.
