The Rogue and the Peasant by Amberley Martin  

About The Rogue and the Peasant by Amberley Martin

The Rogue and the Peasant is a fun, fairytale adventure that blends Hamlet with Rapunzel to make something completely new. Grab it for 99c from the 23rd to the 29th of January.

Everyone knows a girl locked in a tower is supposed to wait for a prince—but that isn’t the destiny this girl has in mind.

Esme’s life has been filled with secrets. Her mother says she’s destined to be a queen, but she won’t say when. Or how. Or who Esme’s father is.
When Esme’s imprisoned by the evil fairy godmother, she only has more questions. Who is the young man guarding her? Why is he so interested in her father’s identity? And can she convince him to help her escape before she’s forced to marry whichever self-absorbed prince with a hero complex turns up to rescue her?
Since his father’s murder, Rory’s life has depended on keeping his identity secret. Working for the fairy godmother seems like a fair trade for his safety, until he’s sent to kidnap a girl who wears his family ring, a girl his father’s ghost is suspiciously quiet about.
Unraveling their connection might do more than save them both from the fairy godmother. It might save the fate of an entire queendom.
But can Esme achieve her destiny when Rory’s trying to avoid his own?

The Legend Is Born by GERALD R KNIGHT  

The Legend Is Born by GERALD R KNIGHT

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. 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

Murderous Depths: A romantic, sexy murder mystery with humor, intrigue, and suspense  

About Murderous Depths: A romantic, sexy murder mystery with humor, intrigue, and suspense

Sam awoke, not knowing where she was.
Her body was crunched up in a ball, and the cedar closet smell assailing her nostrils brought back memories of Grandma’s cottage.
She didn’t open her eyes. Moving set off the Fourth of July inside her head, and reaching out caused a thick, wooden splinter to bore into her index finger. She jerked her hand back and brought it to her mouth. What was this, a coffin?
The sticky bump on her forehead was tender. Panic bubbled steadily inside her, rising upward.
Where was she?
Finally rustling up the courage, she opened her eyes.
This was worse, far worse. Time stood still in utter blackness. The silence was deafening. There was no whispering of palms, no thrashing of waves–nothing existed around her. She screamed, and her voice echoed inside the tiny box, ricocheting against the wood and slamming back into her ears. She pounded the walls and kicked the sides until, suddenly, another sensation registered.
Falling. Down, down, down. To an eventual thump.
And then she felt it. Water—the frigid water had also seeped into her socks.

My Heart, Christ’s Home: 100 Days of Joy and Strength in Jesus by Patricia Adderley  

About My Heart, Christ’s Home: 100 Days of Joy and Strength in Jesus by Patricia Adderley

My Heart, Christ’s Home is a collection of 100 poems and the scriptures they were based on. God lives inside each one of us, if we’ve accepted Him as our Savior. However, salvation is only the beginning of a lifelong journey.

Throughout our lives, we will face trials of many kinds. We have to deal with loss and grief, fear, faith, or questions of identity just to name a few.

We ask ourselves things like “Does God really know me?”, “Who did God create me to be?” or “Is there more to life than this job?”.

We hide things about ourselves from other people and, especially, from God. We are afraid that if they found out who we really are we might be rejected. Whether warranted or not, we feel shame for our past actions, feelings, and thoughts.

I don’t know about you, but it’ a constant process to turn over those hidden parts of my heart and mind to God.

This collection of 100 poems are moments in time where I asked God many of the questions I listed here and more. As I take time to be with Him and listen to Him, He fills me with His peace. I find rest from my anxious thoughts. He shows me who He created me to be and He gives me strength.

No matter what the circumstances, He fills me with unspeakable joy. He can do the same for you as well. As you read this, I encourage you to take time to listen to God. My hope is that this book will be a resources that can help you draw closer to God. He has great plans for your live, even if at moments it doesn’t seem like it. He just wants to be with you. He wants you to turn to Him with all of your prayers, thoughts, hopes and dreams. He’s waiting.
