Robert's Ride

Robert's Ride, by Wilson James, free until 11/11/11, with coupon FE33M.

Born in a small town in rural south-west Georgia and placed in a foster home after being orphaned at five. Those were the bare bones words to describe Robert’s first years. He is big for his age and hard to place, but after too many years, he is finally one of the lucky ones to be picked as a potential adoptee.

He struggles to make sure his new adoptive mother likes him and wants to keep him, in spite of the fact that she really has no idea what to do with a child. She is well meaning, but rather emotionless. Robert desperately tries to figure out to read her and please her.

Join Robert as he experiences the adventure of a new home, a new school, and new friends, along with some more dramatic events. Will it all work? Will Robert really find the home he needs and wants? Find out if Robert’s life takes a turn for the better, in ROBERT’S RIDE.

The author of ROBERT’S RIDE is Wilson James, whose work has been reviewed at a major online retailer as “Seriously Good Writing”, “Very Inspiring” and “A Great Book.”
