The Legend Is Born by Gerald R. Knight

About Featured Book: The Legend Is Born by Gerald R. Knight
This free book is an introduction to the series Legends of Ḷainjin
This faraway, pre-contact story begins with Helkena, a young, still untattooed girl enduring a typhoon crashing over the only island she has ever known. Her home is Wōtto, one of the dry, windswept atolls of the northern Marshall Islands. The newborn infant Ḷainjin has just been entrusted to her care by his mother, who has sailed her fleet of proas into the open ocean to save them from certain destruction.
Helkena, having barely survived the storm, must now travel to Naṃdik, a wet atoll in the southern rain belt of the Rālik Chain. As Ḷainjin’s surrogate mother, she will sail with the infant by outrigger canoe in the company of his maternal grandfathers. These kind men had recently helped the Wōtto Islanders overcome the terrible drought that typically follows a typhoon. With the trade-wind season approaching, it’s soon time to complete their voyage. The grandfathers begin teaching Helkena the traditional navigational arts along the way.
Her goal is to get her tattoos on Naṃdik and, in time, to find a man there to take home to Wōtto. She will need help to manage her matrilineally inherited lands, and she is related to most men in that small, dry world. But will she entice a man from the lush south to her barren desert island?
Far from being a simple story, this colorful, romantic tale presents a surprising background to the lovemaking culture of the Marshall Islands. It also reveals the early years of young Ḷainjin, the hero of the Legends of Ḷainjin historical literary fiction series.

Murder in the Atchafalaya by Jim Riley
Murder in the Atchafalaya by Jim Riley
A lot of things can kill you in the Louisiana swamps, not the least of which are water moccasins, alligators, and maybe even something unworldly called a Rougarou. But as the body count rises in this jambalaya mystery, it becomes apparent that the increasing death toll is mostly due to some very bad villains and some very tough law enforcers.
Kristi is a young college graduate from West Texas recently hired and trained by the Treasury Department. While on the hunt for two of her colleagues, she manages to get herself assaulted and lost in the Atchafalaya Basin. Hawk is an ex-military combat vet now working for the United States Ranger Services. He’s asked by his old friend, the Parish Sheriff, to try to find Kristi. What he finds is not only the woman he’s looking for but also a hell of a lot of trouble. Together, Hawk and Kristi wind up in the middle of ruffians, counterfeiters, financial scalawags, and murderers. As they try to figure out what’s happening and why, while continually staying one step ahead of assassins, they begin to form a bond of respect, friendship, and perhaps even more.
Author Riley does a first-rate job of steeping the reader in the milieu of South Louisiana and Cajun mores. From murders at mudbug fests to menacing mosquito swarms to monumentally malevolent snake pits, he puts the heat and humidly on every page. He’s also adept at weaving a spider-webbed plot that is both intricate and credible. There’s action, suspense, humor, and even a dash of romance in this gumbo of a novel that promises to start a series of adventures for Kristi and Hawk.

Deception – A Hollywood Mystery by Britt Lind
Deception – A Hollywood Mystery by Britt Lind
Josh Sibley, singer/songwriter, is handsome, talented, smart and headed for oblivion. Alcohol provides relief when his demons threaten to overwhelm his every effort to break free of his past. To pay his bills, he works as caretaker at the zoo, which is a perfect job for Josh who loves animals more than any person he has ever met. When his friend Jennie Seger arranges for him to write songs for a multi-million-dollar feature, all his doubts and fears fall away and he embraces the opportunity like a starving man who has found a bounteous feast in the midst of famine.
Lightning strikes his lonely heart in the form of singer/actress Lila Levy who is married to the producer of the movie and flaunts her sexuality at Josh knowing her breathtaking beauty more than makes up for her lack of talent. Knowing his love for Lila is doomed from the start, he overlooks her shortcomings and keeps his feelings under wraps as he teaches her to sing his songs. What’s more important, his career or a night with Lila? At this point in life, it’s a no-brainer.
But this is Hollywood and nothing is as it seems. Lila has secrets that Josh cannot begin to fathom and doesn’t want to know. When her husband Stan is murdered, Lila disappears and Josh is confronted by the woman determined to track her down, Sergeant Rosemaria Baker of the Beverly Hills Police Department. Rosemaria is the polar opposite of Lila; hates show business, and considers Josh a delusional loser. When the cops track down Lila and bring her in, Lila declares herself innocent and the fight for the soul of Josh Sibley begins.
While Rosemaria comes to understand and care for Josh, Lila manipulates and keeps him entangled in her life and evil machinations. Rosemaria breaks though his defenses when she helps save the life of Josh’s best friend Noor, a black panther who lives at the zoo. But her relentless investigation of Lila is an impenetrable barrier between her and Josh.
Hating herself for falling for the kind of man she would never in her life have considered before, Rosemaria becomes inexorably involved in solving the riddle of his tragic past. But Josh, bewitched by Lila, is unreachable.
When the truth about Lila finally comes out in court and Josh can finally see his way out of his lovelorn haze, Rosemaria has gone. Before Josh has any chance to find her and make things right, he has to come to terms with remembrances of the pain he has been avoiding and accept the gifts life is more than ready to offer him.

A Knock in the Attic
About A Knock in the Attic
A Knock in the Attic—my second award-winning book—is, as Uri Geller stated, “a fascinating true story of incredible psychic experiences.”
In these entertaining and adventure filled stories I’ll tell you what it was like to grow up with a powerful and accurate psychic gift that sometimes spooked the adults around me, leaving them bug-eyed and slack-jawed; and I’ll relate some of the emotions I experienced while encountering hair-raising visitations from ghosts on a regular basis.
I’ll share with you the times when my own Guardian Angels not only protected me from physical harm but when they also literally saved my life with a belated Christmas Miracle, to the astonishment of others who said I had lived through the impossible.
Travel with me to Roswell where I have my very own “‘UFO’ encounter” at the Roswell UFO Museum, an encounter that validated the fact that the Roswell UFO crash was a real event and also explained why many witnesses to UFOs are reluctant to come forward.
Plus: I’ll tell you what it was like to meet Uri Geller; give you a behind-the-scenes look at filming the TV pilot for The History Channel; take you along with me to a haunted horse barn; and then…what was that knocking in the attic…?
You’ll enjoy more than a few spine-tingling moments as you join me to experience these astonishing true stories of the unknown…incredible paranormal events that you will not soon forget.

The Cemetery Six will soon learn that some secrets within the tombs hold a terrifying reality. Will they be able to overcome the fear and find the truth, or will they succumb to the fate of their own horror?

As a private practicing oncology dietitian, she has served thousands of cancer survivors in one-of-a-kind, empowering, simplified cancer nutrition and lifestyle programs. She is also the creator of acclaimed cancer nutrition and private lifestyle coaching, group coaching programs, menus, supportive courses, customized exercise programs, and more.

After Nichole had worked in different areas of the clinical setting to support survivors, she quickly realized that the misinforming cancer nutrition advice was not slowing down and new cancer survivors kept falling victim to these outlandish and dangerous diet trends, supplements, and claims regarding cancer nutrition. Understandably, cancer survivors were just trying to do their best and beat cancer. Nichole decided to take big action to stop the fearmongering and confusion, and took to social media. There, she has continued to provide credible information and science-backed advice, building an active and supportive community of tens of thousands of people.
