Book Cover & Preview Text
I think I’m dead. I’m trying to remember the last thing that happened to me and I can’t make it out. I see these blurred faces talking to me. They are wearing white. Are they angels? Am I in heaven? I can’t seem to move my body much and my head hurts. Wait, is that blood I feel trickling down my face? And my stomach really doesn’t feel well. What happened to me? I close my eyes, trying to assess the rest of my body when suddenly my face is slapped. Not hard, but my eyes popped open to see one of the ‘angels’ looking at me intently, then smiles. I can still taste the drink on my lips. I was out with my friends, I remember that. Something was forced down my throat. I am fighting them. I throw up, I think I got their shoes. Do angels wear white shoes? I’ve never felt so rotten. I wish I were dead. Sleep, yes, I need to sleep.

About the Book
Michael was out to party. It was his twenty-first birthday after all, and he wanted to enjoy all of it with his friends. But too many drinks and one punch later changed a fun night out for him and his friends. When he woke up from being knocked out, he found himself in a field of sheep with David, a young shepherd who was his age. Michael was shocked to discover he was in another country and in another time.
David and Michael embark on a journey to have fun and make a fortune. Quickly, they find their new friends have other ideas for them, and they’re saved when a wolf jumps into the fray with his Roman centurion master. Stubbornly, they try to carry on until starvation, exhaustion, and eventually, homesickness finally brings them to their senses. But returning home is easier for David than for Michael.
For You follows Michael’s journey on a spiritual awakening as he ponders his position in life and whether he is headed in the right direction.
