About Racing Hearts: A Racing Family Saga:
Third-generation racer Alex Moretti drives for his father, Andy, a motorsport legend and now expanding team owner. Moretti Motorsport had seemed to hit a grand slam when landing a lucrative multi-year sponsorship deal with Unibank, a major banking institution based in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Just when Andy’s racing enterprise was advancing toward superteam status, the sponsorship relationship explodes when young Alex is involved in a serious car accident, injuring the bank CEO’s youngest teenage daughter, Amanda, who is suddenly unconscious in a Las Vegas hospital and aborting a six-to-seven week pregnancy.
Released from the team, Alex spends two years in motorsport exile while Amanda’s father is hellbent on destroying the Morettis, threatening Andy with a multi-million dollar lawsuit and pushing criminal charges against his son, who is forced to travel the world for any free-lance ride in a race car he could muster.
When Alex finally gets a chance to resurrect his career, Amanda is pressured to testify against him following new inculpatory evidence from their past relations. As both push back against their feuding fathers, their forbidden romance is forced to a climax while playing out in the courts, the press, and in the corporate suites and backstretch of the world’s greatest motor race.

Author Bio:
James Herbert Harrison, a native of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, became a small businessman at age twenty one. Selling the business in 1984, James relocated to Chicago to begin a successful career in industrial and equipment and software sales. His first venture into writing was the 2011 novel, Quest For Power, to be re-published as The Programmer and released in early 2024.
James became inspired to write Miracle From Ukraine, based largely on actual events that occurred in pre-war eastern Ukraine over the winter and spring of 2005-2006, always of the belief that divine intervention had played a role in the bizarre circumstances and series of events that led to his proposing marriage, after meeting his spouse just six days earlier (while using translation software!).
James resides currently in Olathe, Kansas with his wife Maryna and teenage son, Steven, and the family are members of Lenexa Baptist Church. James also has three older children, Kim, Aaron, and Billy. They enjoy the outdoors and spend much of their leisure time on the lake, while James is also an avid lifelong motorsports fan, a passion which has been the impetus behind a planned future work, The Racer.
