    I read Hal Lindsey's 'The Late Great Planet Earth' a hundred times. One thing that struck me, even back then…how could this happen? The Antichrist character is one of the most studied characters in the Bible. We are told in very graphic detail how this man will bring the world to its very knees…so with everyone diligently watching out for him, how could he possibly pull it off? This series is my humble attempt at a possible answer to that question. The Son of Man series is the story of the End of the Age as told through the eyes of both a secular world and a sleeping, unprepared religious community. It is sometimes gritty with MILD profanity and outrageous behavior. While true followers of Christ (some not so flawless) are represented in all four books they are not dominant characters in the story…that is, until the end. For that reason I have specifically refrained from labeling this series as 'Christian Fiction' until the last book in the series was released. As with any fictional story dealing with the second coming of Christ, I have expounded upon and speculated on Biblical prophecy. Rest assured, I have made every attempt to mold my story around the Prophetic Word rather than the other way around. I can tell you this: if you are a Christian, and you believe Christ could return in a test tube, you really need to catch up on your prophetic studies. This is only one aspect of the story that may not, and should not, fit your prophetic mold, but I ask you to consider: What if you're being lied to? What if you're being manipulated in an effort to throw you off track… "For there shall arise false Christ’s, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect"....Matthew 24:24 Excerpt ... The room fell silent. Jim looked at the men sitting around the table. “You people can’t be serious,” he said softly. “Even though such a thing could be done your premise is utterly flawed. A clone of Jesus won’t make him Jesus. He’d be a twin—“ “No,” Bishop Hickie interrupted. “You don’t understand. He would be another son of God.” Jim closed his eyes and shook his head. “Look… all due respect to… everyone—but cloning human beings is a major negative. You should know that. It’s illegal now, and for damn good reason. Each animal cloned today represents hundreds of failures. Most clones are stillborn. The ones that live are likely to have horrendous mutations, many of which manifest later in life, usually killing the animal prematurely. What are we gonna do with the mutated baby Jesus’— throw them away? And what happens if we are successful, and we get a perfectly healthy baby? What then? What kind of life can he have? For the love of God … people won’t understand. People will think he’s Jesus!”

    During the crash of 1987 when Zach’s bagman, Jason, facesbankruptcy, his high-heeled wife, Sarna, learns to trade in order to save their mansion fromforeclosure. As the lives of these two women intersect, Remy falls in love with Ken Baldwin,never imagining how their careers will collide. Sarna begins a steamy affair with another traderwho turns out to be an undercover agent for the FBI during its probe into trading infractionsat the Chicago exchanges. When Jason’s clerk is pummeled, along with those investors whomisplaced their money with their faith, he and Sarna create a bold, sexy scheme to save Remyand rid the Exchange of those who try to get away with murder.Kirkus says of Trade Secrets:Rozner’s debut novel peeks into the high-powered world of insider trading.Hoping to discover more about her father’s mysterious death in a car crash, Remy Masterman enters the secretive, male-dominated world of stock trading, where she learns to assert herself and value her femininity. Readers will be captivated by her journey, and also by the men whom she falls in love with and the conflicted, sometimes erotic relationships that develop between them. When Sarna, the high-strung wife of a fellow trader, joins the Chicago Stock Exchange, Remy at first feels as though she’s been displaced as the sole female at the Exchange. However, the women’s lives intimately intersect as a striking female friendship is born. With multiple storylines and finely tuned characters, the elegantly fashioned novel amounts to more than its pieces would suggest. Rozner skillfully creates complex, provocative characters, with particularly strong female leads. Women call the shots; Rozner subtly indicates that, although the stock exchange appears to be a man’s world, women possess an intoxicating, seemingly irresistible power: their allure. At times, however, the vivid, sometimes gratuitous sex scenes may distract readers from the well-crafted plot. Female characters—specifically Sarna and Rosa—utilize sex to achieve their goals, with men like putty in their hands. For instance, in one explicit scene, Sarna convinces her husband to let her trade stocks simply by having sex with him. For the most part, though, shrewd, sharp-witted intelligence parallels the steamy sensuality. Fans of Fifty Shades of Gray (2011) will approve.A smart, sexy debut.
