Spoiler: yeah, I pushed back a little.</p><p>We dropped the price of these e-books to 99¢ on <strong>Amazon, Apple, B&N, Google, and Kobo</strong>:</p><p>A Sheriff in Nevada<br>Finding Salvation Part One<br>From Tundra to Tiara<br>Hope Knocks Twice<br>Love and Death on I-80 West<br>#Passionrestored<br>Serving Salvation Book One</p><p>The links to these magnificent works of literary art (😉) can be found on <a href="https://carsonhume.com/books-2/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">our Books page</a>.
