Welcome to Paradise, a sleepy, backwater town in the mountains of Southeastern Arizona where police chief Luke Hollis is perfectly content to concentrate on nothing but issuing the occasional speeding ticket. Well that and working up the nerve to approach his dispatcher, Ruby Brooks, for a date.

When an unexplained healing occurs during a service at the Mount Moriah Pentecostal Church of God, Hollis finds his simple belief system challenged and his life changed forever. Throw in a struggling minister, a world-class grifter, and a stranger with an unbelievable story of love and redemption and the stage is set for The Miracle Man. By the time it's all over everyone involved will come face to face with a power that's greater and more wonderful than any of them could have ever imagined.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This well-crafted fictional novel draws you in from the first paragraph and does not let you go until the end. All the characters are fleshed out in first rate fashion. I have not enjoyed a book like this since This Present Darkness. It is hard to believe this is Storm's first book. Good luck putting it down!

The Miracle Man had me from the first paragraph! The warm Arizona setting and quirky characters are a delight, and surprises roll across the pages as unpredictably as the desert wind. Buck Storm is a seasoned storyteller -- and his dialogue is a hoot!
P.S. The prologue itself is one of the best I've read in years!

I know Buck Storm as a consummate singer-songwriter. I couldn't be happier and more enthusiastic to add "talented and imaginative author" to the list of things he does so well. His eye for detail, love for his characters, and a true gift for storytelling are evident on every single page of "The Miracle Man". A few pages in, you'll want to happily go where he takes you ... and you will be glad you did!
Bob Bennett
Award Winning Recording Artist and Songwriter

There are not enough superlatives to commend songwriter/author Buck Storm's debut novel, The Miracle Man. It is engaging, easy-going Americana populated with quirky characters. Heroes and villains alike are cleverly crafted, from the solid, steady sheriff to the charlatan tent preacher to an intriguing, three-dimensional supporting cast. Storm is a master at building a setting with precise details that make the reader right at home in 1950s Smalltown, U.S.A.
AFA Journal

There is a friendly ease to Buck's writing that immediately draws the reader into the story. The rhythm and colorful imagery that so richly inhabit his craft as a song lyricist make an effortless transition here to his broader vision as a novelist.

About the Author

Buck Storm grew up in Yuma, Arizona--a true son of the American Southwest. He's marked time as a commercial diver, fisherman, sailor, and musician. As a singer/songwriter and purveyor of tales, he's bounced around the planet with a guitar and a pocketful of stories and has made friends in venues across the country. Whether lyrics or prose, Buck writes about this mixed-up, out of control, beautiful cacophony we call humanity, and about life as he sees it--or sometimes just how he'd like it to be. Buck and his wife, Michelle, have a happy love story, a hideout in North Idaho, and two wonderful children. The Miracle Man is his first novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't stop smiling!

Storytelling at it’s finest! The Miracle Man is chock-full of 1950s small town charm, well-paced action, snappy dialogue, and fully painted characters that had me cheering, jeering, and laughing out loud. With a unique and refreshing voice, Buck Storm deftly weaves a tale rich in humor, hope, and love with deception, suspense, and real-life dilemmas that both entertains and digs deep into matters of the heart and soul. Who would think a miracle in a small town could set off such mayhem, but life in Paradise, AZ certainly gets turned on it's ear. Will evil prevail? Will the guy get the girl? Will Luke get a rise out of Lucy? And just who is the miracle man? I highly recommend you pick up this page-turner, mosey on into Paradise, and find out for yourself. Such a great read! I’ll bet you’ll be smiling too.

Oh, how I love good stories! Looking forward to the next one. Thanks, Buck!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! It had all the elements of a good read. The author's descriptions of people, places and things put you right in the book, as if you were a mouse in the corner. In fact one character, Mort, was my favorite because I could see and hear Morgan Freeman "playing the part" should there ever be a movie made from this great "story". The book has about everything from mystery, suspense, intrigue, romance, humor and even a tad of violence, if you consider defending yourself with a skillet, violence. Yes, it was a great read and the epilogue finished out the story with the skill of any of the great writers of our day. I hope this first time author writes another book, as I am anxious to see what he would come up with next. How could he ever top "The Miracle Man"?

This is definitely a story... a fictional tale describing a clash between good and evil. I liked the descriptions of the little things, those extra tidbits of info that set for the mood. I liked the backstories and the unfolding thoughts of various characters. I do like stories that could be real, and someone gifted with healing who didn’t even ask for it or is close to God is far-fetched, and also another character with such super insight, but then, it’s a story. You get surprise twists along with an excellent description of how good got twisted for evil. Cleverly done. I really liked the courage of the hero and his personal thoughts. I liked all the good characters a lot, and also the redemption of one gone astray. The title is accurate...an unbelievable story of love, laughs, and redemption. Go ahead and enjoy it.

I rarely write reviews (even though I usually read them prior to purchasing a new item).

I looked forward to receiving this book and I wasn't disappointed. Once I started reading, it was hard to put down. It had all the elements of a good read... a hero, an Evil villain, romance, suspense, humor and reality. I cried at the end which for me says it was a good book (but I have been known to cry at the Hallmark commercials on TV.)

Anyway, thank you Buck for sharing this story with me. I loved it and it really showed how easily people can be drawn off track. We all need to be Bereans! and then have Faith, and just Trust in God and His Word.

5.0 out of 5 stars My first 5 star religious novel!
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2015

I usually do not read novels with a religious message, but something about this one kept me reading, and I am glad I did. The humor was great and there was no poignant push to finding savior in the Lord. In fact I think most readers will be very confused on the author’s way of looking at religious teachings. One would think he was a non-believer! But I knew better because in this rare case, I actually did some research on the novel BEFORE reading it. I was also bored and felt I would try a few pages before rejecting it. I got hooked quickly.

The story was excellent, and to me that is the most important thing. The book starts with a miracle and the miracles keep on coming! It was so bazaar that I was laughing at each miracle as it came up. The book appeared to be a spoof on religion, but I knew better because of my research. I just had to keep on reading to find out what the author’s agenda was when he developed this story. To tell the truth, I am still not sure. I wish I could say more but this story is too good to give a spoiler. I would recommend this book for atheists AND religious people…but only if they have a sense of humor. This is my first five star religious book, but then this also one of the few religious books I have read.

Fantastic story with characters masterfully and wonderfully woven together. I found myself rooting for the good guys (Luke, Esperanza, Ruby, Mort, Josiah, etc.) and feeling such compassion for Paco. Even hoping that Reverend Whitehall would eventually see the light. The Bishop had me clenching my teeth and fists! I feel like I've walked the streets of Paradise, Arizona. I could've read the book in a day or two, but I wanted to stretch it out. So I took my time. Come to think of it, I'm gonna pick it up again just to re-live the experience and the lives of those bygone days. Buck Storm is one of the greatest storytellers of our time and for every generation!

I really enjoyed this!!! I loved seeing some familiar last names--ancestors of characters we meet in the _Ballads of Paradise_ series, perhaps?--and connecting the dots. Defo not needed to read _Ballads of Paradise_ first; that was more an Easter egg than anything else--but an added bonus for sure! Super fun.

It's a thought-provoking read, for sure; Storm writes well and I'm so glad I have plenty of books to binge now. :)

Miracles, intriguing characters, a truly nasty villain and a plot that draws you in, I enjoyed The Miracle Man a lot! It's very well written, with each character and setting coming alive. It's central message (at least, how I saw it) of letting God work in His way, isn't overdone, but is also very strong. A great book.
