Fast Track To Glory by Tomasz Chrusciel
About Fast Track To Glory by Tomasz Chrusciel
A long-lost artefact… A ruthless treasure hunter… A race to unveil the mystery…
Nina Monte has worked hard to achieve her dreams. At thirty-six she’s one of Italy’s youngest professors, and renowned for her knowledge of the ancient world. Old religious texts might make for lonely companions at night, but that’s nothing a bottle of fine wine can’t fix.
When a mysterious summons presents a career-making opportunity, Nina can’t resist. A relic has been found in a 15th Century galley and it’s the kind of discovery encountered once in a lifetime. But floating atop the depths of Lake Garda at the recovery site, Nina senses something is amiss. With local hotelier, Alessandro Pini at her side, she begins to unravel the truth surrounding the relic. She soon realizes that questions of the past pale in comparison to the dangers looming in the present.
The mystical object in Nina’s hands is no trinket; it has the power to change humanity’s perception of existence. And many believe a gift like that is worthy dying—or killing—for.

Tomasz Chrusciel wrote his first story at sixteen, but it would take another twenty years for his love affair with writing to become the central focus in his life.
After obtaining a master’s degree in Political Science & International Relations in Poland, Chrusciel found himself in the corporate sector. The work stoked his passion for global politics, but his imagination craved greater freedom. After moving to Ireland and falling in love, he finally left his job to become a full-time fiction author. His debut novel “Illusive Intrusion” was followed by “Fast Track to Glory”. Both works have since earned Chrusciel a dedicated readership that continues to grow each day.
Wanderlust regularly draws the writer to extreme corners of the globe seeking new settings, personalities and historical events to inspire his next novel. When he isn’t researching destinations or convincing his cat-loving fiancée to let him adopt a dog, he’s at his computer furiously typing his latest scene, or chatting with his readers on social media.

Aberration by Lisa Regan
About Aberration by Lisa Regan
FBI analyst Kassidy Bishop is assigned to the “For You” killer’s task force after a series of sadistic murders bearing the same signature arise in different parts of the country.
The homicides are both calculated and savage, occurring in different states, but bearing the same signature: the words “for you” scribbled at each crime scene. The case chills Kassidy, bringing back memories of her own encounter with a violent criminal five years earlier.
Kassidy’s mentor, legendary agent Talia “The Confessor” Crossen knows the task force assignment is Kassidy’s chance to prove to her colleagues that she belongs in the Behavior Analysis Unit. For five years, other FBI agents and profilers scoffed at Kassidy’s appointment to the BAU, believing she was only offered the position in exchange for her silence about the brutal assault that almost killed her.
The stakes rise when the task force links the killer’s signature to Kassidy. As more and more bodies turn up, Kassidy must delve into her past and the mysterious death of her twin sister, which holds the key to uncovering the killer’s identity.
The closer Kassidy comes to finding the killer, the closer she comes to a deadly confrontation that could cost her everything—including her own life.

Falling in love with literature was easy for her. As a child, she was a voracious reader and loved to write. When it came time to go to college at Georgian Court University, choosing a major was easy – English Literature. In 1998, with a Bachelors in English Lit strapped to her hip, she wasn’t sure which avenue to take so she went on to earn her teacher’s certification and taught middle and high school English for nine years before writing her first novel.
Born in Aurora, Colorado, the daughter of an Army helicopter pilot and a stay-at home mom, she moved all over the country as a child before settling down in New Jersey. Christine currently stays home to write while her husband works and her two boys attend elementary school. Don’t bother her too much during football season – she’s either cheering on her boys or crying in her pint glass over yet another Jets loss.

The Crucible of Adversity: Memoir of a Brain Cancer Survivor
About The Crucible of Adversity: Memoir of a Brain Cancer Survivor:
“It is easy to say or think you wouldn’t let yourself get down if you were in my position, that crying about it wouldn’t help, and that the only way to make it through this or have a chance of making it would be tackling this thing head on. To that I say, when have you ever had to stare death in the face with the odds stacked against you? Was the outcome highly unlikely that you’d survive…? There might be some of you out there, but we are few. Those who have, we stand apart from the rest of humanity… But we still stand. We are still here because we fought. We had the courage to not back down, and were just crazy enough to say “bring it on”. That is the reason we stand, and the very reason we aren’t lying cold and dead, in a box buried six feet deep.”
This is the story of one man’s struggle to grab life by the horns when it would have been easier to just give up. Follow Aaron on his journey as he battles through brain cancer, love, loss, and derailment, to when he finally discovers what it means to truly LIVE!

Paper Castles by Terri lee
About Paper Castles by Terri lee:
IN SAVANNAH GEORGIA, THE GARDENS AREN’T THE ONLY THINGS KEEPING SECRETS.
“I want to know what goes on in your head,” Adam said. “What do you think about? What are your dreams?”
“My dreams,” Savannah said, picking up her spoon and stirring her coffee again. She stared into the swirling depths as if she could conjure up the specter of the girl who once had dreams to spare. “Funny thing is—I got everything I wanted.”
Where do you go when you find out everything you wanted isn’t what you need?
Savannah Palmerton picks up a brush and heads to an art class, desperate to find a piece of the girl she used to be, before the country club dances and the boring dinner party conversations. In 1963 the country is still playing in her innocence, but there are rumblings beneath the surface. The fabric of America is just beginning to fray around the edges. So it is in Savannah Palmerton’s life.
Love, betrayal and family secrets create a lethal cocktail that has Savannah’s world unraveling at her feet. Set against a southern backdrop of garden parties and civil rights marches, Paper Castles is a sultry mix of sweet-tea and murder. Sex and secrets.
Paper Castles is the best kind of love story. Where a woman must first learn to love herself.

The telling of my story has a distinct before and after quality to it. My life, before, was a love story. A Hallmark movie, with a couple of I Love Lucy episodes thrown in for good measure. Boy meets girl in high school, sweeps her off her feet and marries her. But after 41 years of love and laughter, the bottom fell out with the uttering of one little word: Cancer. A love I thought I’d grow old in, slipped away in the middle of the night. Leaving me to ask, what now?
Thankfully the writing that sustained me through my entire life was there to catch me when I fell. At first I poured it all out onto the pages of my journal. A mix of words, ink, and tears tucked safely between the leather covers.
Here I am in the after part of my story. But the after is also the NOW. Eventually the purging of emotion led me back to another story that had been pushed to the back burner during trying times. Characters who’d been waiting patiently began to nudge and push. It was time to sit down at the computer and let the story be told. Let the healing begin.
When I ask the question, who am I now?… I realize though the road may have changed, I’m still a storyteller.
If it’s one thing I know about, it’s love. But I’m not interested in simply writing about; boy meets girl. My tag line is: Romance may be pretty but love stories are real. And that’s where I want to be when I’m writing…down deep where the real story lives. Because love is messy. And glorious. I want to roll around in a story and fall in love.
The Moonstone, Enchantment book 1
About The Moonstone, Enchantment book 1:
Fear, love… and betrayal; that’s what I feel about my new life.
It’s a life I never asked for, at least not like that.
I certainly dreamed of adventure, of escaping from my ordinary life, but nothing prepared me for what would happen when my normal life flipped upside down.
On that fateful day, a witch, a real one, revealed to me that I’m not human! That’s right, I, Lou Mills, am an enchanter like her! It seems that I’m the key to an ancient prophecy and that I must save the world from the imminent war between humans and enchanters. What waits makes no sense; in fact, nothing seems to make sense to me since meeting her.
And then there’s this man…dark and mysterious…but so attractive. If only I could forget him. Duality is the way the Earth remains in balance, black and white, right and wrong, love and hate. What side should I fight for when the war finally breaks out? How to choose between my family…and the people who I belong to?

Panacea by Brad Murray
The only thing noteworthy about Jimmy Porter is that in his 21 years, he has never accomplished anything noteworthy whatsoever. He’s always been just another face in a sea of faces. His path through life has been fraught with disappointment, which began when his father mysteriously disappeared from his life at the age of eight. Little does he know a miracle flows within his veins – a miracle that sets him apart from anyone else in human existence.
Two shadowy, powerful groups seek to possess him for themselves, and they’ll stop at nothing to do so. One group white; the other black. Each group holds their own design for the future of mankind; one that is as contrasting as the colors they adorn.
And Jimmy Porter is the key.

After years of attending the boring weekend-long stays at some secluded resort, this time, Brandon finds himself on a Caribbean cruise. Timing could not be worse for him to be somewhat off the grid, considering what he and his cousins have just learned about the Senior Donovans, but meeting the charming and beautiful spokesperson for a national company is refreshing. Spending a sultry and sensual night with her was more rewarding than he could have ever imagined. Until he learns that she may not be who she says she is and that her true identity may lead him to the man who claims to be a Donovan.
**AUTHOR’S NOTE: This book is #13 in a series. While it may not be necessary to read each book that has come before this one, it is highly recommended that HEART OF A DONOVAN, EMBRACED BY A DONOVAN and WRAPPED IN A DONOVAN be read before reading this book, as there is a continuing plot in each of these stories.

Numagician – Awake The Memory Wizard Within by Fususu
About Numagician – Awake The Memory Wizard Within by Fususu:
Long time ago, my mom asked me to close my eyes and imagine something, I saw only a huge universe with no single stars; my teacher asked me to learn a poem by heart, I forgot it after few hours. Today, I’m able to memorize a long number up to 512 digits, I can draw things from numbers and make people surprised. The secret is the art of Numagician, which unleashes the full potential inside us.
Numagician is a unique drawing technique that turn number into pictures. For example, let’s say your friend was born on 3 April (34). You come to him and say, “Do you know that your birthday is very special?” then you draw the Wizard from number 34 on my book cover. Surely, he’ll be surprised and feel confident about himself (he may think he have magic)!
Recent researches have shown that our brain has two hemipheres. The left-brain handles verbal information, the right-brain handles visual information. Most successful people weren’t born genius, they just learned how to use their brain fully. When you write a number and draw a picture out of that number, you activate both left and right brain. This process not only helps you memorize any number easily, but also unleash the potential inside like the geniuses of all time.
With this book, you will not only able to memorize a long number up to 512 digits like me, but also get a Numagician Memory System that enables you to memorize anything instantly and recall it precisely anytime. Be ready to surprise your friends, and yourself with your photographic memory! And much more…
Lots of self-help books give people a strong motivation to change. However, motivation is just a type of emotion, it won’t last forever, so many people give up a week later. This book is different because it included lots of tiny habits. They are actions that you can do everyday to master the technique given in the book without any (or just a little) motivation. So you’ll be happy to see your success daily!
“I’ve conquered Pi mountain, I’m able to recall all 512 digits of Pi number. It was hard at first, but with tiny habit provived in the book, now I can also remember names and acreages of all provinces in our country. That was an amazing experience!”
~ Ho Trung Hieu, from Vietnam.
“I have always considered my memory to be rather poor. But after using the very simple techniques in this book, I am capable of memorizing things many people would deem near impossible, with minimal effort. The author has taught with his experience that how he step by step mastered the techniques and how you can become proficient at them too so that you can get the grasp on your memory. This book is worth having especially if you are tired of looking around for memory improving books. Just commit yourself to the memory techniques present in here for you and get the success graph go through the roof.”
~ Morgan Young, from United States of America.
“We all need to improve our memory and this book is a great way to help you to do this. It is an easy-to-read book with some great ideas on how to enhance your memory. I have personally started training my mind, using the principles in this book and have tested my memory with amazing results. This is a ‘must have’ book!”
~ Basil Wood, TEFL Teacher and Tutor in South Africa.
“An amazing book; I read through the book once today and am hooked on to continue to read. The flow of the book is well written and interesting. My favourite portion of the book is the one on magical numbers because it gives many fun ways to help me remember important dates and events. Well, I am not a numagician yet but with constant practice with this book, I am sure I can get there. Highly recommended read for all ages, even your kids will find learning fun with the techniques provided in this book.”
~ Ryan Low, from Singapore
This book helped lots of people improve their memory, even changed their life. Now it’s yours!
