review 2014-12-05 18:26
Bo is a widower who has 2 young children. his wife is killed in a car accident. The story starts and right from the beginning you know this is going to pull your heart strings. He meets Gabby by chance and falls for her. Gabby helps Bo accomplish much and accept his life. I am not normally one for religious books but I really loved it.
It was spiritual in a way that shows you how to believe and be grateful for life. Bo was kind of annoying at times. It was frustrating when he didn't see how amazing his life was. But Gabby was so good with him. She was able to show and convince him to trust in God and be grateful for what he has. To live everyday to the fullest.
This book had so many different genres mixed into one. It was written so well that you did not feel that one overpowered another. A definite read!

Excerpt:

The door chimes at the top of the old door rang, signaling our arrival. Other than the little bells jingling, everything seemed too quiet. I quickly surveyed the room sensing something was wrong. More often than not you would get a friendly greeting when you entered a store, especially in a small one-person shop. The shopkeeper would normally be so glad to see a customer or have anyone stop by. Not here, not today, something was off.

The store itself was normal – laid out the usual way with a few grocery isles to make the state happy. Maine has a stupid rule that small stores must stock at least a certain dollar figure of groceries in order to maintain a license to sell beer, wine, and cigarettes. That’s how the proprietor makes his money. To meet the requirement variety stores usually stock a few isles of dust covered groceries conveniently priced at three times normal. The right side of the store was reserved for groceries, leaving the left side of Zeb’s lined with a neat display of old- fashioned beer coolers. A dark oak, glass front counter had pride of the place at the back of the store. It was topped by and old-fashioned brass cash register.

What seemed odd to me was the way the shopkeeper continued staring straight ahead without saying anything. Not even a friendly, “What can I do you for,” when we walked in. A tall, heavy-set biker stood faced toward the counter between the closest beer cooler and the center aisle. His massive bulk, greasy ponytail, and leather vest made him look ominous. Gorilla hairy except for his shaved arms completely inked with skulls, daggers, and black lettering. The words so stretched over his skin you could barely make out the ink. I always give guys like him a wide berth.

“Don’t worry, Bo,” Gabby offered reassuringly as she walked straight up to the counter as if she hadn’t a care in the world. Standing side by side with the tattooed giant,

“Do you have Tab,” she asked. “My boyfriend would like one.” Her voice was so cute I had to smile. I loved hearing Gabby call me her boyfriend. Even if it was just for show, I played along.

The shopkeeper was shaking his head and biting his lip. I knew he wanted us to just turn around and walk away. The sooner the better, if I was judging his demeanor correctly. I was beginning to feel and sense things around Gabby. It felt like my brain was finally waking up from a long slumber and making connections that I never made before.

The big man turned to face my angel, towering over her, even in her heels. “They’re fresh out, Missy,” he barked, trying to intimidate, “Why don’t you and your little girly man save yourself the trouble, and just leave.”

The storekeeper’s eyes were pleading with us to go. Gabby was undaunted. She turned toward him, “Is that any way to speak to a lady, Wesley?” She asked so fearlessly. It was sexy. I’ve never seen anything like it and I was falling in love.

“How did you know my name you prissy little bitch?”

Gabby stood toe to toe with him. “The same way I know you’re wearing your mother’s underwear, you big pussy-ass fat bastard!”

She’d obviously struck a nerve. Wesley breathed in deep and stood to his full height puffing out his chest. He lifted his fat arm, exposing a grotesque wad of black underarm hair. He pointed a platinum-plated 44 magnum at Gabby’s face. “I’ve heard about a fucking-nuff out of you, whore!” He snapped red faced obviously embarrassed by her perceptive reading of him.Gabby looked at him with contempt. “Oh, shut your bad breath, foul smelling, ugly trap, Wesley, you big-girl phony.”

“Are you done? Slut!” He raged, “Who dies first,” he growled, “you or your little girlfriend.” He pointed the gun back toward me.

“You wanna go first, Fuck!?” He asked, “Or maybe I should let you watch while your little bitch bleeds. How would you like that, Princess?” He cocked the gun.

I was tiring of the fat man. I’ve been called wiry and rugged, even handsome, but never girly or princess. Gaby’s confidence inspired a supreme sense of calm. I was searching my memory for the right words, something droll to say. It wasn’t every day I had the protection of an angel of God. I wanted to say something that would impress her and make me sound cool, like Clint Eastwood. Before I could think of anything Gabby kicked her red heel high into the fat man’s chest, sending him flying into the closest beer cooler. With the force of a projectile, his body hit the back of the antique cooler, shattering through the glass doors and bursting the contents. Beer cans were flying out spurting everywhere, rolling past me squirting their foamy contents all over the floor. The heavy impact caused the store alarm to go off.

It all felt surreal. What’s wrong with this picture? There was a dead body, broken glass, beer spraying all over the place. A half hour ago I was lying down on the seat plank of a picnic table taking a nap, relaxing. Now I’m accessory to murder, with an angel. That’s going to be tough to explain.

Gabby turned to me, “Are you okay?”

I was flabbergasted. “I didn’t know angels killed people?”

“They don’t, Bo, that guy was already dead!” She whispered to me. Gabby looked at the body of the biker and whispered, “Jesus.” While the sweet fragrance of His name was still on her lips, a dark shadow left Wesley’s body, disappearing like black vapor through the sidewall of the store.

“It’s going to be fine.” Gabby reassured the man behind the counter. She went to him and took his hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. He was understandably very upset.

“You didn’t see anything. You don’t have to remember what happened.”

“I didn’t see anything,” he repeated her words, shaky and dumbfounded.

She turned to me, “Bo, we’d better go. You’re right; this would be tough to explain.”

“You read my mind?”

She grinned at me. “Yeah, get used to it.”

“Did you know all this was going to happen?”

Gabby shrugged. “No, I usually get my orders just before He needs me.”

“Oh, you find out just before?”

Gabby winked at me. “Don’t worry, He never gives me more than I can handle.”

“Good thing!”

About the Author:

I’m originally from the Portland, Maine area and lived and worked there for years before moving to Southwest Florida.

My first book, Jack Canon’s American Destiny: He’s All In, is a Presidential Thriller, or some might say White House Mystery Thriller, packed with action and adventure.

I just completed the sequel to Jack Canon’s American Destiny – which is titled Jack Canon’s Women of the House: Love, Lust and Loyalty (A story of Kindness, Passion and Courage that can’t be separated. It’s has all of the same components of the first but leans toward a Presidential Romance, or White House Romance Thriller.

The sequel is just as action packed, but with a bit more spice than the first, some would say it’s very sensual. Anyway both are available on Amazon now.

My stories are full of adventures, thrills, and romance, are fast paced and even have some hilarious moments.

The Jack Canon series will eventually be about 7 books, book three is tentatively titled, Jack Canon’s Ghost Operative, it’s a Presidential Agent Thriller and deals heavily in the shady dealings of the CIA, Global Terrorism, and the do-what-ever it takes spy mentality. Anyway the attitude of President Jack Canon is to make things right, No matter what!

My hope is to have people read the stories and let me know their thoughts. My dream is to write full time and return to beautiful Maine in the Summertime while spending winters in Florida. I probably share that goal with a lot of people.

My Dad and Mom were artists, my father painted and my mother wrote poetry and loved to garden.

Most Saturdays we loaded up the 1970 Chevy Impala to trek to a one man show somewhere or other. I took a different track graduating with a business degree; owning and operating an Award Winning Franchise Fitness Center. Currently a professional manager I am living in Florida with my beautiful wife and children, and following my passion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Political intrigue, suspense, and romance., May 15, 2014
This 
I rarely read political novels, but kept hearing buzz about Jack Canon's American Destiny. Author Greg Sandora has a great writing style and his storyline pulls you in on page one whether you are politically inclined or not.

I’m familiar with a local politician who worked his way up to Senate position, and what Sandora writes seems more factual than fiction. Entertaining, educational, and enticing! The world of politics is indeed an ugly playground, and you have to play rough and get dirty to make it into the big leagues.

All characters are well drawn, especially Canon whose flawed yet powerful personality is persuasive enough to entice voters and keep readers turning pages. Jack Canon is truly All In, so if you want to take a thrilling, suspenseful ride along with a variety of characters, jump in.

Initially I was thrown by a grammatical error in which Jack reads his notes to his provocative, fetching assistant, Sandy, and uses the phrase could care less instead of couldn't care less (“this country is being run by elitist who could care less about ordinary Americans”), but in the following line, he correctly uses “couldn't” in a sentence. It momentarily stopped me, but as I continued reading I realized Greg Sandora’s writing is up there with the best of the best.

Buy this one - you won't regret it!

The door chimes at the top of the old door rang, signaling our arrival. Other than the little bells jingling, everything seemed too quiet. I quickly surveyed the room sensing something was wrong. More often than not you would get a friendly greeting when you entered a store, especially in a small one-person shop. The shopkeeper would normally be so glad to see a customer or have anyone stop by. Not here, not today, something was off.
The store itself was normal – laid out the usual way with a few grocery isles to make the state happy. Maine has a stupid rule that small stores must stock at least a certain dollar figure of groceries in order to maintain a license to sell beer, wine, and cigarettes. That’s how the proprietor makes his money. To meet the requirement variety stores usually stock a few isles of dust covered groceries conveniently priced at three times normal. The right side of the store was reserved for groceries, leaving the left side of Zeb’s lined with a neat display of old- fashioned beer coolers. A dark oak, glass front counter had pride of the place at the back of the store. It was topped by and old-fashioned brass cash register.
What seemed odd to me was the way the shopkeeper continued staring straight ahead without saying anything. Not even a friendly, “What can I do you for,” when we walked in. A tall, heavy-set biker stood faced toward the counter between the closest beer cooler and the center aisle. His massive bulk, greasy ponytail, and leather vest made him look ominous. Gorilla hairy except for his shaved arms completely inked with skulls, daggers, and black lettering. The words so stretched over his skin you could barely make out the ink. I always give guys like him a wide berth.
“Don’t worry, Bo,” Gabby offered reassuringly as she walked straight up to the counter as if she hadn’t a care in the world. Standing side by side with the tattooed giant,

The storekeeper’s eyes were pleading with us to go. Gabby was undaunted. She turned toward him, “Is that any way to speak to a lady, Wesley?” She asked so fearlessly. It was sexy. I’ve never seen anything like it and I was falling in love.

He pointed a platinum-plated 44 magnum at Gabby’s face. “I’ve heard about a fucking-nuff out of you, whore!” He snapped red faced obviously embarrassed by her perceptive reading of him.Gabby looked at him with contempt. “Oh, shut your bad breath, foul smelling, ugly trap, Wesley, you big-girl phony.”
“Are you done? Slut!” He raged, “Who dies first,” he growled, “you or your little girlfriend.” He pointed the gun back toward me.

About the Author
I’m originally from the Portland, Maine area and lived and worked there for years before moving to Southwest Florida.
My first book, Jack Canon’s American Destiny: He’s All In, is a Presidential Thriller, or some might say White House Mystery Thriller, packed with action and adventure.
I just completed the sequel to Jack Canon’s American Destiny – which is titled Jack Canon’s Women of the House: Love, Lust and Loyalty (A story of Kindness, Passion and Courage that can’t be separated. It’s has all of the same components of the first but leans toward a Presidential Romance, or White House Romance Thriller.
The sequel is just as action packed, but with a bit more spice than the first, some would say it’s very sensual. Anyway both are available on Amazon now.
My stories are full of adventures, thrills, and romance, are fast paced and even have some hilarious moments.
The Jack Canon series will eventually be about 7 books, book three is tentatively titled, Jack Canon’s Ghost Operative, it’s a Presidential Agent Thriller and deals heavily in the shady dealings of the CIA, Global Terrorism, and the do-what-ever it takes spy mentality. Anyway the attitude of President Jack Canon is to make things right, No matter what!
My hope is to have people read the stories and let me know their thoughts. My dream is to write full time and return to beautiful Maine in the Summertime while spending winters in Florida. I probably share that goal with a lot of people.
My Dad and Mom were artists, my father painted and my mother wrote poetry and loved to garden.
Most Saturdays we loaded up the 1970 Chevy Impala to trek to a one man show somewhere or other. I took a different track graduating with a business degree; owning and operating an Award Winning Franchise Fitness Center. Currently a professional manager I am living in Florida with my beautiful wife and children, and following my passion.

Gabby Angel of God: An Interview with Greg Sandora, Author

How much of yourself is hidden of the characters in your book?

I think a lot of my life shows up in the story. My wife is the example of all that is good in the book, she is courageous and strong like the angel Gabby. My daughter is the brown haired version of Gabby and when she manifests as a blonde she’s more like my wife Kathy.

How much of a story did you have in mind before you started writing?

I love spirituality and angels and thought about the plot before beginning. I’d say a large part of the story is decided before writing.

Can you tell us what genre you write?

So far I have written a Political Thriller, a Presidential Romance Thriller, and a Supernatural Romantic Thriller.

How do you cope with writer’s block?

I write when the story is dying to come out, if I feel things aren’t flowing, then I’ll edit and go back over different parts until I’m inspired.

How do you develop and differentiate your characters?

I decide on the characteristics of each prior to setting out. For example, Gabb is breathtakingly beautiful, strong, and courageous. Bo, is a somewhat niave but loving widower, father of two, whose been damaged by life.

Do you have specific techniques you use to develop the plot and stay on track?

I decide the ending and lead everything toward it. My goal is to build suspense and add more character depth as the story unfolds to give the reader the feeling that they are getting to know the intimate details and innermost thoughts of the players.

How (or when) do you decide that you are finished writing a story?

I decide in advance on the ending, and once it is reached and resolved the book is done.

Is there a message in your writing you want readers to grasp?

This life is a learning experience, we come to give and express love. Nothing else is more important than loving.

What are you working on right now?

Jack Canon’s Ghost Operative, the third instalment in the Jack Canon Presidential Agent Series.

Have you always wanted to be a writer?

I always wanted to write a book “someday.” When my mother became very ill, I started to ease the stress. She loved the written word, especially her poetry. Both parents were readers, and passed the love of books to me.

At what age did you discover your love of writing?

About ten years ago I wrote a few short stories that friends told me they liked. That experience gave me the encouragement, but I found I loved writing Jack Canon’s American Destiny. It was a cathartic story for me and very fun to experience.

What was the first story that you wrote?

A ten page look at the paper route I had with my brother after school. I was ten, Joe, my younger brother was eight. We thought the first house third floor walk up was haunted and that a witch lived at the end of the single bulb lit hall. We’d argue over who was going to deliver that first paper, usually we’d go together and fly down the stairs to the safety and light of the street.

When were you first published? How were you discovered?

My first book, Jack Canon’s American Destiny was released in March of 2013.

What is the most difficult part of the whole writing process?

The editing is much less fun than the writing. I love to write the story and dream up new characters and events, sifting through the material for misplaced words and comma’s is not fun.

What do you like to read?

I love to read anything with a spiritual bent.

Which writer influences you the most?

For fiction, I liked Patterson’s easy style.

Where can people learn more about you?

I’m on facebook  /  website  /  Facebook  /  Twitter  /  Google +  /  Pinterest

Is there anything else you’d like to tell us about yourself?

I have a beautiful Boston Terrier named Sophie, she is a real joy.
