In GODZ GIFT, the contest for US political power is getting bloody and mixing with terrorism, football, sex, love, heartbreak, and possible alien intervention. On a camping trip with his USC college football buddies, Jarrod Palemaru is confronted in the woods by an otherworldly beast. He is terrified, but survives; the gashes in his arm prove it was not a hallucination. Next thing he knows he is an unstoppable, supercharged gladiator on the playing field and top draft choice for the US President-owned Oklahoma Storm NFL franchise; and things heat up romantically when he meets the First Daughter, Chance. But Jarrod's new physical abilities also extend to the bedroom, in a complicated way, threatening to expose his secret. Meanwhile, as 2020 draws near, the country's mood is tense. Enter Tara Gaines, presidential candidate for the Patriot Party. Much sharper than Palin, more compelling than Hillary, and shining with movie star charisma, Tara is ready to take back the White House for God and Country. When overseas intelligence regarding an assassination attempt on the US President reaches Tara through her hawkish military-contractor crony, Eugene Baal, a golden opportunity to seize the day materializes. A temporary alliance with the terrorists, to aid and abet their murderous dirty-work, is the perfect bait and switch, while some Baal-designed lethal weaponry guarantees instant, destructive retribution. Baal and Gaines will emerge as heroes, clearing Tara's path to the Presidency. Everything will be decided at the Super Bowl. On that fateful, championship-deciding night, Jarrod can't keep his mind in the game, smells danger in the air, and finds himself at the epicenter of a battle royal for the fate of the United States, with loved ones' lives hanging in the balance.
