The
Blue Goose:

In 1981 the hostages in Iran had been released, the Russians were the bad guys, Reagan was the commander and chief, and the DM to Dollar exchange rate was peaking at an all time high since World War II.
In 1981 the hostages in Iran had been released, the Russians were the bad guys, Reagan was the commander and chief, and the DM to Dollar exchange rate was peaking at an all time high since World War II.
The free world was in turmoil, and needed someone
to secure it. At least according to the Lieutenant.
Spicher Air Force Base was located in a rural
section of Central Germany known as the Eiffel
Mountains. It was up to Sergeant Anthony Harris
and the rest of the USAF Security Policemen assigned to the 44th Squadron, Delta Flight to make sure that the world stayed free, or that at least their small corner of it did.
“Gentlemen, war is hell, even in peacetime.”
The Lieutenant had actually once said that to the
flight during guardmount, and he meant it.
Trauma
Junkie:
What happens when a suicidal paramedic falls
in love with an ambulance-chasing reporter?
Brian is
going through a rough patch in his life. His wife, Amber, has divorced him and
is remarrying a rich wall streethedge fund manager. His boss hates him, his
partner tolerates him, and he likes to stand on the ledge ten stories up,
bottle in hand.
Four
years ago his infant son passed away in his crib sending his life into a tail
spin.
All he
has left is saving lives, and saving them on his terms. That's not enough.
Enter
Brooklyn, a fiery red headed stringer, who works the overnight selling video
and stills to the New York media and she's had a long standing crush on Brian.
She's out
to prove that a paramedic isn't the only one who can save a life.
Twilight
on the Amber Cliffs
Brandon
is a small town cowboy turned New York City reporter. Hope never left the small
town. 25 years ago they fell in love in high school. Only one problem, she was
the daughter of the Mormon Bishop and he the outsider who happened to be
Catholic... and in 1977 rural Utah that mattered . In 2006 he is returning to
Utah for the funeral of his best friend - who married Hope.
