Jose – Chained Dreams is a dramatic reimagining of the biblical story of Joseph, set in the ancient Hebron Valley and later in Egypt. It follows Joseph, a gifted and spiritually sensitive young man favored by his father Jacob, whose prophetic dreams reveal a destiny far greater than he can understand. His divine favor, symbolized by a multicolored robe and mysterious dreams of authority, ignites deep jealousy among his brothers. This resentment soon turns into betrayal when they decide to sell him into slavery, faking his death and breaking their father’s heart. Taken to Egypt, Joseph must endure loneliness, injustice, and displacement in a foreign land. Yet through unwavering faith, integrity, and spiritual discipline, he rises from a household servant to a trusted figure in Potiphar’s estate. Even as temptation and trials threaten to derail him, Joseph remains committed to his moral convictions and belief in God’s plan. Across betrayal, suffering, and exile, Joseph’s journey becomes a testimony of resilience—showing how dreams, even when “chained” by adversity, can still unfold through divine purpose.

Until he crashlands on the Wynne Farm near St Anne, Alderney, Edmund Bolton will have insisted the most prudent thing about himself is his medical degree and his willingness to fight fascists. But of course it’s that island, and that farm – and that family. Aidan Wynne is tortured by the shame of others and tormented by a freedom he feels he can never possess. Until the handsome military doctor with far too much understanding and far too little self-preservation comes to turn his life on its head. The war makes fighters of all affected, but none so much as the lovers and those who must love quietly. Often, the fray has less to do with weaponry and bloodshed, and everything to do with keeping tame a passion that seeks to send the world up in flames without burning oneself up in the process. "Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I’ll ever know. Live and die on this day, live and die on this day." Fray is created by Li Walt, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.
