Legend, rumor or myth, is this what happened on the seventh day of Christmas?

According to legend, myth or rumor, which many have debunked as untrue, the seven swans a swimming was meant to represent seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, after being born again. They are wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and the fear of the Lord. In my estimation, those are the most wonderful gifts of all. I know I love them; you probably do or will too.

Enjoy this AGAIN – while what happened on the seventh day of Christmas rolls along


A new Thriller/Suspense novel and series by Lee that will keep you guessing.

A man running from his past. A woman facing a new future. A voyage neither will forget.

Tragic decisions changed DR’s life forever. His dad was supposed to protect him, keeping him from harm. But hidden family secrets chased DR away instead, and twenty years later the secret still exists.

Now DR focuses on three things: getting away from the do-gooders, starting his own boutique cruise, and losing the taunting voice in his head. And after arriving in Marsala everything is almost perfect, as if a divine hand was helping, but that couldn’t be.

Soon twelve passengers and crew set sail on a thrilling adventure with Steven (DR) Ray, now a world famous archaeologist and confident captain of his own boutique cruise. But their yacht is randomly marked entering the Suez Canal leaving the Mediterranean by a terrorist organization. After reaching Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, pay-for-play terrorists set the plan in motion. And failure isn’t a choice.


The Obsessed Intentions Series is a page turner from debut novelist Lee Wimmer in this nonstop thriller with characters who will steal your heart.

Might I suggest a perfect gift to you?

God’s gifts are perfect, unlike the couple in our story, His gifts are timely and never ending. Jesus, our savior, gives the gift of forgiveness, healing and salvation, the best gifts anyone’s true love ever gave, His sacrifice became our perfect gift.
