Today, Roberta talks to Cher Gatto about her new book Something I Am Not.

2020 Christian Indie Award for Best YA; 2020 Carol Finalist for Best YA

SOMETHING I AM NOT is a powerful look at the insidious world of human trafficking right in our own backyard, and the redemptive story of a young man's fight to get out.

A father who never loved him … A woman who stole his worth … And a brother he couldn't protect.

Where does someone run in the face of his deepest shame?

Billy McQueen works hard to keep his life together ... and concealed. At seventeen, he dreams of an escape from the barroom, his father's manipulation, and the advances of his father's girlfriend. However, on his eighteenth birthday, Billy is introduced to a younger brother he never knew he had. An eight-year-old who is barely capable of navigating the corrupt world of his father's boxing club.

In order to secure his own freedom, Billy must fight for it. But to save his little brother who is next in line for the slave trade ... he must die for it.

Today, Roberta talks to Felicia Ferguson about her new book The Choices She Made, available from End Game Press publishers.

In 1997, seventeen-year-old Madeline Williams is torn between continuing her family ranching legacy and accepting her Army-bound boyfriend's marriage proposal.

But when an assault by John David Billings, the son of a wealthy rancher, leaves her pregnant, Madeline sacrifices both options, choosing to leave town and raise the child alone.

It's been several years, and when she returns to her hometown to meet with her father, rumors circulate about John David's trial--for assaulting other women. Madeline struggles with the secret she's kept from her daughter--and everyone but her father--all of these years.

If she testifies, John David could be put away for good. Doesn't help that he's hired a killer lawyer, and it would take a testimony like hers just to put him behind bars. But if she unveils her past, that could have some dangerous repercussions for her daughter.

She has trusted God throughout her entire life, but can she trust him to carry her throught his trial?
