Southern Charm by K.C. Crowne  

About Featured Book: Southern Charm by K.C. Crowne

A little girl was dropped on my doorstep.
And, this wild cowboy became a father overnight.

I’ve seen a lot in my life.
But nothing prepared me for fatherhood.
What's worse is that El is five and she has my stubborn streak.
H*ll, a man with my history isn't meant to raise another human.

Sam is my only saving grace.
But now I'm both excited and troubled by the feelings the beauty stirs up.
Smart, caring, and hot enough to melt my cold heart.
I need to look after my baby girl and run my family ranch – not fall hard for my kids' teacher.

But when Sam's past follows her into my home,
I'm forced to fight for my family's safety and the best thing that's happened to me in a long time.
I'll protect Sam -and the secret miracle in her womb.

Finnegan Fouind – Surviving the POW Camps on the Yalu by John N. Powers  

About Finnegan Fouind – Surviving the POW Camps on the Yalu by John N. Powers

Forgotten men of a Forgotten War. The Forgotten War lasted from the summer of 1950 to the summer of 1953. A greater percentage of prisoners died during those three years in Korea than in either World War II or Vietnam. This historical fiction novel shines a light on their story. The prisoner-of-war camps along the Yalu River saw half the prisoners die during the first winter. Then the Chinese began their efforts at “re-education.” The Chinese attempted to convince the prisoners of the decadence of capitalism and the glories of communism. Those “students” who failed to demonstrate the correct amount of enthusiasm were punished.
Swede is one who fights back. Only nineteen years old, he escapes three times and pays a price for each. He is starved and exposed to the harsh winter night while buckets of water are thrown on him. His guards beat him and even hang him by the neck. Swede decides they might kill him, but he will never give up. Finally allowed to rejoin the main camp, he teaches others to resist, becoming one of the worst of the men the Chinese fear – the Reactionaries.
Swede escapes from his cell night after night to steal food and medicine for his fellow prisoners, each time returning before he is caught. He joins men like Earl Stoneman and Henry Page to convince other POWs to fight the Chinese efforts at poisoning their minds. He and Page help destroy a B-29 the Chinese have captured and burn records the Chinese keep on the prisoners. When he is sentenced to a year in a penal camp, Swede continues to escape at night to help fellow prisoners being isolated and tortured. He saves a friend from certain death at the hands of the Tiger, a fanatical Korean who executes prisoners. In doing so, he buries another friend in secret.
Swede decides to continue the fight against this new enemy, even though he is still trying to understand what causes men to inflict such pain and suffering on their brothers.
Forgotten for seventy years. Now is their time to be remembered.

Author Bio:
John N. Powers enlisted at age 17 and served as an intelligence operations specialist in Vietnam and Europe. Using the GI Bill, he earned a Bachelor’s degree in American history and secondary education and a Master of Science in Teaching degree in elementary education from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point. After teaching for thirty-one years, he spent ten more as an emergency room coordinator. In 2002 he began researching the prisoner-of-war history of 203 US Marines captured in north China as Pearl Harbor was being attacked. His wife’s father, Platoon Sergeant Harold A. Hoffman, was one of those men. That led to the establishment of the web site northchinamarines.com. The American Ex-POW organization asked if he would write articles about POW camps in Korea and Vietnam. Work on those projects led to the realization there was no single source for family members of POWs from those wars to find information on camps and conditions in those camps. The book Bean Camp to Briar Patch-Life in the POW Camps of Korea and Vietnam is now that source. The book was named Grand Prize winner in the 2013 Great Midwest Book Festival and winner in non-fiction in the 2014 Best Indie Book Awards. Powers recently completed his second book. The historical fiction novel, Finnegan Found-Survival in the POW Camps on the Yalu, will be available in July. He and his wife have three sons and six grandchildren, with two more arriving this fall. They enjoy traveling and playing with the grandkids, activities on hold until the current pandemic is under control.



The Dragon Chronicles: Lunaria by Jasmine Brown  

About The Dragon Chronicles: Lunaria by Jasmine Brown

After the hostile takeover of her kingdom, Princess Lunaria simply wanted to lay low and stay alive. Even after she rescued a poor stranger from a group of rowdy Titans, she planned to return to a life of hiding. But when her enemies identify her as the former princess and demand she surrenders herself in exchange for the lives of 20 innocent dragons, she can stay hidden no longer.

Now exposed and thrust into her predestined role as Champion of Wizteria, Lunaria only has on goal: getting her people to the point of peace and prosperity. The Titans won’t let that happen without a war. Will Lunaria win freedom for her people, or will the dragons descend into oppression and slavery for all eternity?

The Dragon Chronicles: Lunaria is the second book in The Dragon Chronicles Series and the companion book to the bestseller, The Dragon Chronicles: Solana. If you enjoy well-written page-turners with lovable characters and a great mix of action and adventure, you’ll love Brown’s latest coming of age fantasy.

Best Friend’s Baby  

About Best Friend’s Baby

I harboured a secret crush on him and loved him for half my life, but he was never mine to have. Everyone knows friends with benefits is a recipe for disaster…
To me it was special. Perfect.
But happily ever afters only happen in fairy tales, right?
He was being groomed to take over his father’s billion-dollar empire.
And I was the dirty little secret.
The perfect family, the perfect life, and the perfect future.
The last thing he needs..A scandal like me hitting the press.
To say things are complicated is an understatement of the century.
This baby inside of me isn’t the only secret I’m carrying,
Before I walk away forever,
Before I break my own heart…
I have to tell him what I’ve been hiding.
Even if it means he hates me, even if I have to raise our son alone.
How do I make my heart let go?

Make Enterprise Great Again: The Gods Must Be Crazy!: Cradle of Communism to Catacomb of Capitalism: A Proposal to bring back the House of Roosevelt’s  

About Make Enterprise Great Again: The Gods Must Be Crazy!: Cradle of Communism to Catacomb of Capitalism: A Proposal to bring back the House of Roosevelt’s

Ay Yi Yai Yi! We are in the middle of The New World Order!
Empires rise, decline, and fall. Rome, the Ottomans, and Britain have all fallen, and if we aren’t careful, the US will be the next.
Many enterprises are a bunch of extreme financial engineering frogs in tepid snake oil. Unfortunately, many will find their destiny with IP Vultures.
If we don’t play our trump cards right, soon the next voracious empire, The Middle Kingdom of China, will send their errand boys to collect the bills from the US and over a hundred other countries, which it has economically and digitally colonized since the economic Tsunami of 2008 through BRI and DSR.
“Make Enterprise Great Again” digs into the foundation of capitalism to bring back ideals to save us from the impending Fourth Reich.
Yeah! It’s halftime, America!

A Brief History of My Nomadic Re-incarnations

I was born and raised in God’s Own Country (Kerala, a tropical paradise in India). We are followers of St. Thomas the Apostle, and we were educated by Christian missionaries (brought by colonizers) from Portugal, France and Britain. 100% literacy and high educational standards in Kerala has led to many progressive movements, including communism. Kerala has many unique records, such as a model COVID-19 recovery rate higher than most Western countries, and it was also the first place where communists were democratically elected to power in world history and are still being ruled by them since 1957. Because of communism and the resulting industrial desert, I had no other option but to pack up my bags after obtaining my Industrial Engineering degree (with specialization in Total Quality Management) to find a job in Bombay (the commercial capital of India).

I soon realized I didn’t have much life beyond the factory floor with my dark skin (as a lungi-wearing Kala Madrasi). I got scared and fled to the South to escape the racist economic ladder. I obtained my MBA in finance as a candidate for national integration. Fortunately for me, in 1990, the entire Indian economy collapsed under the weight of License Raj. Thanks to the collapse of the half-a-century-old mighty Indian License Raj, the Indian economy was liberalized. And it was just in time because I had the amazing privilege of starting my career as an Investment Banking Analyst. Thankfully, the 1996 stock market crash in India gave me the opportunity to come out of my investment banking career.

India had taken the socialist route and, in the 1970s during the conflict with Pakistan, declared emergency rule. Thanks to the Pakistan war and other non-alignments, the US and India’s relationship soured and IBM abandoned India. Hail to the (to fill) vacuum, TCS and the other Indian IT conglomerates were born out of desperation. They coded us in IT to kickstart the legacy computers and mainframes left behind by IBM. Thanks to the biggest blunder in business history (Y2K), IBM and the other western enterprises saw us (‘Cyber Coolies’) as the thrifty solution to fix the doomsday Armageddon code.

During this time, I managed to migrate from corporate finance to ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solutions and snatched my passport to the epitome of capitalism (USA). But in 2000, the (Netherlands-based) BaaN Brothers got into the Dutch scandal and the #3 ERP (BaaN) system I was riding became a dead horse.

Since then, I’ve spent over a decade volunteering for PMI. I’ve etched my name on all the key standards of PMI (including PMBOK, OPM3, PP&PM, etc.), thanks to my PMI papers, publications and books (especially Project Portfolio Management Standard). I even served in Gartner’s PPM board room panel and later became one of the three PM Methodology SME at E&Y. In 2008, in the midst of the economic Tsunami, I served as an Advisor (to CFO’s office) to set up the Project Portfolio Management Office for a Fortune 10 World’s Most Admired Company. I saved them around a half a Billion dollars, but I became the victim of my short-term financial engineering. I managed to capitalize on the 90s legacy Hyperion Enterprise and moved on to the fancy world of a CFO’s suites of products for bigger Financial Engineering in the BIG4 consulting world.

In 2009, I packed my bags for the Cambodian Jungles in search of answers from the bottom of the pyramid through GIFT (Global Institute for Tomorrow) – a Clinton Global Young Leadership Program (YLP). The more I looked at the finance world in the West, the more disillusioned I became. I lost faith in the rollercoasters of flash markets (90% of today’s stock market without long-term fundamental values is chasing stock buybacks, the Tweets, the hot dollars and high-frequency algorithmic flash gambles by BOTs). Hail to Hernando de Soto. I was born again to The Mystery of Capital Gospel. Since 9/11, I have won a few dollars betting against the conventional Western market wisdom by gambling in Petro China and Total.

After coming back from the wilderness of the Cambodian killing fields, I reincarnated my career to become an EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) out of the 2008 Economic Tsunami in the BIG4 world. I made 95% of my net worth between 2008 to 2011 by betting against conventional wisdom. (When the whole world deleveraged, I leveraged to the extreme in some of the most iconic real-estate in the world which was on Fire-Sale). I do have a fair share of blood on my hands with mindless EPM Financial Engineering through fancy jargon (aka Cost Cutting) such as Tax Effective Supply Chain Management (TESCCM), Business/Finance/IT Transformation, BPR, Six Sigma and Pricing and Profitability strategy.

To greenwash my guilt, I had the amazing honor of volunteering for the most extensive Professional Not-for-Profit for over a decade (PMI [Project Management Institute]), which serves ~3 million professionals, including over 500,000 members in 208 countries around the world. I’ve contributed to about half a dozen books and ~50 publications/presentations. I used to be involved in several Entrepreneur of the Year (EOY) Awards at Ernst & Young, as well.

Sadly, after over two decades, it looks as if I need to ride back through that Mad Max fury redemption road and climb through the capitalist apocalypse rubble left from Roosevelt’s days.
