The Unexpected Card by E.H. Lyon

Josh Ives is the boss who goes on one business trip then comes back with the unexpected…

As co-owner of Ives & Wells, I’m ready to nail the most important business trip of my career. But does it have to include my business partner’s moody younger sister, Layla? Yes, it does, and she happens to be escorting me to New Orleans. As much as we hate each other, it isn’t completely crazy. Technically, she’s an employee and someone decided I should be her boss. But one fight after another leads us to an explosion in the bedroom… more than once.

I definitely wasn’t planning on nailing more than a good business deal on this trip.

Unfortunately, our plan to leave the antics in the bedroom and out of the office falls apart as soon as we return home. First, because some of our mutual talents can’t be forgotten. Two, because there is a business partner that may kill me as soon as he figures out what happened. And three, because some secrets can only be kept for so long, give or take nine months.

The Unexpected Card is the first standalone novel from the Mr. Boss series. This workplace romance is filled with banter, a swoony boss, steamy times, and surprises along the way.

Author Bio:
E has a thing for writing witty women, swoony men, and the steamy scenes that bring them together. Her stories take you on a light and bantering ride until the very end when your couple finds their happily ever after.

An American from the Midwest, she now lives in Europe with her small pack of humans. She types away on her laptop with music on repeat, a donut in one hand, a whiskey or coffee in the other, and the occasional glance at her yoga mat that she should probably use again. She loves finding a new book boyfriend, hearing from other authors, and connecting with people who read her books.

Oh yeah, she has too many nicknames for one life, so we’ll just stick to E for now…

Careless Love by Steve Zettler

Grace has gone to Hawaii to escape Southern California; with suicide very much on her mind. It’s 1979. Her philandering husband, Nick, a successful film director, has walked out on her and is carrying on yet another illicit affair. On Grace’s first night at Honolulu’s lush Pickering Club she meets Lee, a man who also has a need for escape. They recognize this bond immediately, along with an emotional and physical attraction that cannot be ignored. Enter Ray Slack, brutal and sadistic substance abuser. These parallel lives travel in close proximity. Lee and Ray have a connection of which neither is aware. In the span of four days, Grace and Lee fall deeply in love, overcoming the many obstacles that have been thrown in their path. But Ray and Lee are magnets. The same power that forced their lives to cross in Vietnam has come back to haunt them, and there is no escaping the collision course that has been mapped out for them.

The Infoboros: Recursion Across Mind, Matter, and Information by Vidur Mishra

The Infoboros shows recursion and information to be two different aspects of a unitary universal phenomenon. In the participatory feedback loop of observer and reality, recursion drives and regulates the flow of information, and information self-referentially triggers recursion.
The Infoboros is an information-eater. It is here to eat the strange loop of information that eats you. In a glorious tapestry woven from information theory, logic, quantum physics, neurophenomenology, linguistics, computation, and the contemplative science of Tantra, Vidur Mishra’s The Infoboros reminds us who and what we are, again.
Recursion is both an unbridled power and an endless issue (source of repetitive deceptions and knots) for a sentient being such as a human. If recursion spirals out of your hands, then life will slip away too. This is what has happened to humanity as it became one-dimensionally obsessed with representational cognition (via virtual symbolic reference) and forgot its many other profound organismic assets and qualities. A decent chunk of the world has endless external conveniences and ever-increasing distribution of models about many things, but it is rare for people to have an extremely deep experience (on a daily basis) of their own existence. Many can articulate and argue really well endlessly, but hardly anyone is always Alice in Wonderland. In simpler words, as Sadhguru says, “People have fallen too much in love with words and have lost the actual world.”
On the other hand, if recursion is consciously and energetically mastered, then you become the weaver of your own fate. You become a Tantric. “Tan” signifies “to loom or weave.” Tantra means “To Weave Your Destiny On Your Will.” Then no matter how problematic things get (even on the cosmic level), within yourself, you will remain absolutely unfettered, untouched.
The meta symbol of Ouroboros is a universal morphism map that can encode and map almost anything and everything onto itself. It can unite many other maps by and onto itself. It can be extended infinitely. It puts the observer back into the dynamic reality that the observer infinitely participates in and further generates endlessly. It puts the modeler back into the infinite (undivided wholeness) reality that it always incompletely discerns, dissects, and models. It points to the unchanging unmoved mover that self-causes itself into infinite changing living manifestations and then participates (plays) with(in) them without being changed by them. In Yogic traditions, it encodes the most potent coiled serpent of Kundalini that magnifies in its explosive magnitude as it spirals upward through each iteration, the self-created cycle of Samsara, the self-negation of Nirvana, the self-sealing of Mahamudra, the self-knowledge of Veda, the self-unification of Yoga, the self-illumination of Atman, the self-reality of Brahman, the self-dancing movement of Shakti, the self-stilling-silencing dissolution of Shiva.
The universe, as a whole, is a pure recursive play of active intelligence on itself, by itself. The Ouroboros is a tail eater. The Infoboros is an information-eater. Eat all your karmic (recurring active) information. Eat the strange loop that eats you, and be free.
The book has received advance praise from people like Subhash Kak (Padma Shri Winner/Computer Scientist/Philosopher), Bobby Azarian (Cognitive Neuroscientist/Psychology Today Blogger), Richard Doyle (Information Scientist/Philosopher/Psychedelic Researcher), and others.

Author Bio:
In this brief life so far, Vidur Mishra has spent a lot of time doing nothing (deeply absorbed in meditative states) while doing quite a few decent things but none as marvelous as doing nothing. During the pandemic of 2020 that shook the already distressed information-overloaded planet, he graduated with a B.S. in Information Sciences and Technology and a minor in Philosophy from the Schreyer Honors College at Penn State University. Well, it seems he is well equipped to jump in this uncertain sea of information—not because of his education, but because of his practice in meditation that allows him to discern signal from noise patiently—with compassion towards his fellow sentient beings. A graceful practice that allows him to mindfully navigate the “strange loop” of dualistic thought, intellect, language, logic, and tech-driven materialistic culture.
He has a transdisciplinary approach, and his work explores questions from information theory, computation, neurophenomenology, philosophy, meditative and esoteric spirituality. The Nobel laureate Herbert A. Simon (economist and cognitive scientist) said it the best: “What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention.”
Since the consumption of sensory and symbolic information recursively consumes attention and feeds the ego, it has become ever more important to take some meditative practice in this information-overloaded age. As such, Vidur practices yoga, self-inquiry, and shoonya meditation to transcend all dualistic cognition to effortlessly abide in the least virtual reality always directly accessible to a sentient being: pure contentless consciousness. Sometimes, he supplements this practice with silent mime, psychedelic visionary art, and kooky eerie poetry. In the past, Vidur has also worked as a Technology Analyst (Bank Of America, NC,USA) and Software Developer.

About Black and Brave History: 30 Sheroes Who Shook Britain

In this radiant and colourful anthology, meet 30 Black Sheroes, past and present, who shook Britain. They are daring, unique and wonderfully human.

• Patricia Scotland, the youngest woman to ever become a Queen’s Counsel barrister in over 200 years at the Bar.
• Margaret Busby, Britain’s youngest ever book publisher, who was only twenty years old when she made history.
• Fanny Eaton, a young black mum who dared to model in the Victorian Era and made art more inclusive by showing up as herself.

Did you know Black women helped Britain during the Great Wars by flying aircrafts and serving as medical secretaries and Acting Corporals? How about after the Second World War, when they boarded the Empire Windrush in thousands and sailed to British shores to help rebuild the nation and kickstart the NHS?

Across British history, Black women have been creators, lawmakers, Olympic gold medallists, models, pioneering nurses, actors and so much more. Some were born here while others migrated with their families. Though their reasons for coming and staying are dynamic, what remains consistent is that Black women have shown up for our nation in big ways. Their stories should be known, their impact celebrated. Black British women are more than their struggle and now you can uncover their legacy as never before told.

This book is about your learning and growth just as much as it is celebrating these great women. Each biography invites you to journey with a shero and closes with a reflective space to journal your ambitions and create your own action plan. Where will their inspiration take you?

Eva Rae Thomas is in over her head on her first assignment as an FBI-profiler in multi-million-copy bestselling author Willow Rose’s nail-biting mystery.

When mother of two, Arlene Wood crashes her car against a tree at four in the morning, the case seems pretty straightforward.

A friend?
A lover?
A killer?
Six years later, fresh out of training, FBI-profiler Eva Rae Thomas is new on the job when she stumbles upon something that suddenly blows this case wide open.

But can she persuade anyone to reopen the case when even the husband is convinced that he is guilty?

And will she be able to do it in time before this killer strikes again?
