The Message in the Painted Rock by Tom Blanton

Set in a small city in Texas in the present, this is the story of two resourceful and courageous teenagers who must deal with unbelievable and wondrous forces in their quest to solve a mystery involving an ancient artifact.

It is summer vacation. And thirteen year-old Marya has come to Coronado Springs from San Francisco to visit her grandmother, Arthur’s beloved neighbor, Mrs. Flores. Though Arthur has never met her, they quickly become friends when they visit a mysterious old man who draws them into a search for an ancient relic once owned by King Arthur. It is a search in which they will encounter strange and wondrous creatures, some helpful, others evil and dangerous, as they unravel the clues. It is a search that will test their courage and their trust in each other, and will make them question long-held beliefs.

The book is a mystery, to be sure, with many twists and turns. But it is also the story of how these two teenagers, at first skeptical, finally come to believe that, just as the old man told them, magic and wonder surround them every day.

About The Romanovs: A Captivating Guide to the Last Imperial Dynasty to Rule Russia and the Impact the Romanov Family Had on Russian History by Captivating History

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Romanovs, then keep reading…
An undoubtedly interesting, exciting, and dramatic chapter of Russian history was ruled over by the Romanov dynasty.This powerful ruling family came to power shortly after the frightening rule of a legendary figure in Russian history: Ivan the Terrible. After murdering his own son and unborn grandson, Ivan died without an heir, resulting in the formation of a new dynasty. This was the Romanov family.
The Romanovs included some of the most famous names in all of history, from Peter the Great, who expanded its borders, to the mighty Empress Catherine the Great, a powerful female ruler in a time of rife male supremacy and who is still a symbol of feminine power to this day. The Romanovs ruled from the end of the Middle Ages to the dawn of a modern era that forcefully rejected the last Romanovs from a nation that no longer tolerated a monarchy. And every last one of these mighty monarchs had quirks and idiosyncrasies, likes and dislikes, pasts that were often troubled, and complicated family lives.
Every one of them was a person, complex, intricate, flawed, and fascinating. Their stories range from the beautiful to the tragic to the bizarre. And in this book, they all are laid out for you to enjoy.

About When Heaven Sighs

Beneath layers of glamourous country music stars and professional athletes, deceit and brutality stalk the city sidewalks of Nashville, Tennessee in the form of assassins sent by a secret society to find and destroy a missing Dead Sea Scroll.
On a steamy day in August, a young man dies from the Ebola virus on a downtown sidewalk. Close to midnight on the same day, tires screech and a young girl screams as the body of Father Tom McClarin smacks against the hard, cold asphalt in front of the cathedral where he serves. Both men’s destinies have been bound together by their mutual belief in the ancient scroll which possibly contains a unique message for today’s churches.
Detective Hayden Douglan and Samual Thomas, a local pastor, follow the clues piling up and conclude both deaths are homicides. Faith and courage will be tested as the investigation leads from corruption in the highest levels of the religious community and police department to a powerful mystic cloistered behind the walls of beautiful Saint Alaric Monastery near Vienna, Austria.
After Samual is also attacked and shot in the chest, he is healed by angels sent to enlist his help in convincing the religious community to believe the message of the scroll. Despite death threats and the struggle to contain an Ebola outbreak, Douglan and Samual work alongside and against powerful forces at work in Nashville: forces seeking to destroy the scroll and opposing forces strong enough to save anyone connected with bringing the scroll to the attention of the city’s spiritual leaders.

About My First Theft Went a Little Like This: An Instalove Story by Isla Chiu

My first theft went a little like this…
I just wanted to steal one bag of chips. Instead, I end up stealing the heart of a handsome millionaire…

WORD COUNT: 4,100

Excerpt:

My pulse races. How do I get out of this? It’s not like I can fight off the man. He is way taller than me and appears to be hiding a muscular body in his gray suit. And he is good-looking, which is completely irrelevant, but I’m not blind. Silky brown hair, intense violet eyes that could undress you with ease and you would like it, and a jawline that you could cut stone on. “Um…hey, what’s that?” I point. Lame, I know, but it works in the movies.

Of course, he doesn’t fall for it. “Do I look like an idiot?”

I give him my best puppy dog eyes. Maybe I can appeal to this rich guy’s heart. If he has a heart. “I’m hungry.”

He rolls his eyes. “Nice try. I own this store. Do you think I would be able to make a living if I let every hobo take free food from me?”

“I don’t know, but it’d make you a really nice person.”

His eyes are cold. “I’d rather be rich, thanks.”

My voice is small. “Please, I need to eat.”

“I should drag you to the police station.”

Does this guy not have a soul? Well, I guess you have to be soulless if you’re charging people 7 dollars for a bag of chips. “Um…” Panicking and desperate, I pull him in for a kiss. He freezes instead of pushing me away. When he starts kissing me back and tries to wrap his arms around me, I jump away from him and run as fast as I can.

When I manage to tear myself away from taking Buzzfeed quizzes and watching unhealthy amounts of TV, I write romance and smut. My works feature alpha males, sexy times, and/or my sarcastic sense of humor.

I hail from Cleveland, aka the best freaking city in the world, and believe LeBron James is the perfect human being. Despite all of my efforts, I have never truly been able to quit caffeine. My favorites include Taylor Swift, Florence + the Machine, and SHINee. I love to hate/hate to love k-dramas. If I say I’m on a diet, I’m just lying to you and myself. One of these days, I'm going to get hypertension from an excess of salt, both literal and figurative. If I'm awkward around you, I probably don't know what to say to you and/or I think you're hot. And despite what anyone says, Forrest Gump so deserved that Oscar over Pulp Fiction.

About She’s Mine Now

He’s known as Doctor Sexy. Great. Just what I need.
As a single mom, I’m concerned about my little girl and rebuilding my life.
My ex is a piece of work, and I ain’t talking about art.
I’ve sworn off men for forever, even while facing the wedding fever that’s spilling over from my best friend’s wedding.
But there’s something about the doc. He’s way more than he appears to be.
And he cares about his patients and his staff.
*Eye roll* Nope. Seriously. He’s a billionaire from some invention, but he’s not interested in sipping drinks on a beach.
He’s fully dedicated to saving lives and helping people.
At least that’s the story on the street.
I’m just working hard not to fall for his good looks or wicked smile.
Surprisingly, the sparks between us could light up a New Year’s skyline.
Against my better judgment, I find myself loving his attention.
My ex, however, does not.
When blows come to blows, my hot doc isn’t backing down.
He’s got one message for my past mistake—she’s mine now.
Yes. Yes, I am.

About The Infinite and the Alephbet by Dominic Forcier

In The Beginning, there was nothing, then the light appeared and filled the nothingness, and it was good, and from nothingness, all of creation eventually sprang forth, propelled by unseen forces, forces we cannot measure or observe without our instruments of investigation. Dark energies and dark materials, outside the purview of testability and experiment, controlling >95 percent of the universe.

This is not bible study.
This is modern cosmology.

Cosmology is not a science.
There is no test for the Big Bang.
There is no test to prove that “nothingness” can exist in the first place.
There is no test for timelessness.

Instead of delving into the 100 or so reasons why Big Bang cosmology is technically wrong, this work instead takes a different approach, proving the fact that the universe must be eternal and infinite, by employing logic, and reason.

Science works wonders where we can conduct experiments. Where we can poke and prod, scan and probe, touch and smell, control for variables, and repeat repeat repeat; pursuits like medicine or geology – these are well served by Science.

Figuring out how the whole shebang works, on the other hand, is a completely different can of beans.

I know it sounds like heavy reading, and, well, it is. But, what thing is more important than understanding everything?! Eh? I tried to keep it short. There’s some pretty pictures near the end for an eye break…
