A Mate for the Senator by Vi Voxley
About A Mate for the Senator by Vi Voxley
Eleya has done more with her life than most Brions will. Not only a General, but a High Senator, she’s achieved everything but the love that every Brion seeks. When a twist of fate brings her face to face with her second mate, can she move on from the pain the first one caused, or is he just another challenge to be dealt with?
Xaven as a more than capable Brion Captain wants many things, but being a General is not one of them. However a mate that is one… well, a man can have no objections to that, now can he? Only when it becomes clear that their paths are too divergent to come together must the warrior reconsider his faith in fate. Perhaps some things are not meant to be.
Or maybe they need to be fought for harder than he ever expected?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fans of Shannara, Wheel of Time, and Game of Thrones will love this exciting, new epic fantasy series.
Following the devastation of the Great Wizard Wars, the land of Aldor turned its back on magic. For a thousand years the Jun’ri have ruled and the Ven’ae have maintained their silent place within the shadows of society. Those unfortunate enough to be born with magic struggle every day to remain unseen. However, the winds of change are beginning to shift.
At sixteen, TY knows that he’s different. The arrival of the Black Watch in Easthaven precipitates a secret that threatens not only his life but the lives of everyone around him. LYESSA, fierce daughter and only heir of Overlord Barl, has a secret of her own. Her skill with the sword will either prove the means of Ty’s salvation or the end of everything they hold dear?
No prisoner has ever escaped the White Tower. FERRIN is determined to be the first. The long-awaited capture of the famous weapon-smith who earned a commission from the High King has left the Tower in a state of eager anticipation. Despite being tortured at the hands of a sadistic inquisitor, Ferrin is no closer to breaking, and seems destined for the Chamber of Purging if he continues to withhold his help in creating magic-infused weapons for the Tower’s growing army.
VALTOR, Arch Chancellor of the White Tower and advisor to the High Prince, will stop at nothing to ensure his victory in what he believes will be an epic battle between those with magic and those without. No wielder, witch, or wizard will stand in his way.
As Guardian Protector to the High King, AYRION is no stranger to battle. Amidst treachery from within the walls of the palace, the threat of war from Cylmar, and the reappearance of dark mythical creatures, the former Upakan street rat has no choice but to unleash his twin blades in defense of his king, or die trying.
KIRA, the ruthless clan leader known as Red is determined to claw her way to the top of the notorious Warren Underground. Her decision to do whatever it takes to remain as head of the clans proves difficult with the sudden arrival of an old flame.
THE WHITE TOWER is the first installment in The Aldoran Chronicles, an epic fantasy saga about a world struggling with the use of magic. The pages of this book are filled with some of the best the genre has to offer: magic and monsters, sword and sorcery, heroes, villains, and those in between.

Money: The Root “Curse” of Domestic Violence by Deborah Sawyerr
About Money: The Root “Curse” of Domestic Violence by Deborah Sawyerr:
The book tells the story of the authors’ experience as a survivor of domestic violence and the unique challenge of money problems being a contributing factor to the issues the author faced. The book teaches practical ways for women in a similar position how to create wealth for themselves whether or not the victim or survivor has money. The examples given by the author are to help women to gain back their confidence so that they do not feel trapped to remain in a dangerous relationship just because money is an issue. The book is short and easy to read. It is laid out in Phases with one such phase titled Security and Sanity. In this phase, great emphasis is placed on these two very important factors irrespective of any other phase in the book. The book definitely tells a story about the authors’ life, however, the book is more of a self-help guide for women who are living in or have lived in silence for way too long because money has forced them to live this way. The book will make you laugh, possibly feel tearful and even force you to say, “wow, I never knew that other women have gone through the same thing too”. The book is not intended to name and shame the authors’aggressor, but to help shed light on a subject matter that many women around the world, particularly Africa where it is a taboo to discuss violence from a man or husband towards a woman or wife.

Jacqui was told, “You´re like a breath of fresh air around here.” That was many moons ago, and not so long after a traumatic and horrendous situation that won´t ever come close to divorce, death, lone-parenting or a number of other volatile experiences which I´m sure will end up in a book one day.
No one knew what I went through, apart from two of my closest and most trustworthy friends.
So what was it that made me able to bounce back up from the depths of despair? Why can´t everyone bounce back?
I believe it´s due to attitude and a want to overpower the negative thoughts that hold people back. When you choose the direction of your mind, when you decide not to let the trials and tribulations of life to rule you, then you choose to change; that´s how I live my life, and I´m happy.
I now live in a humble abode, with my husband, and an array of rescued animals up a mountainside and can honestly say, life is good, and it´s all down to the way I tackle life´s little misdemeanours. Believe me, there´s a few of them!

A Spanish Dilemma by Meredith Bond
About A Spanish Dilemma by Meredith Bond:
In the midst of war, treaties aren’t the only thing that need to be negotiated and romance can ignite in the most unusual way.
Robert Seton isn’t just going to sit around spending money on silly amusements when there’s a war going on. But since his father has refused to buy him a commission in the army, Robert is thrilled when he is given a diplomatic post to observe treaty negotiations in Basel, Switzerland between France and Spain. Finally he’ll have a role to play in order to help defeat the French.
Isabella Guzman is very happy to have accompanied her father to Basel to support him as he negotiates with the French. But now that the negotiations are over, the French seem to need a little push to get them to sign what they’ve agreed to. Isabella is determined to give it to them—she wants to go home.
Fighting the French is so much more pleasant when you have an intelligent and attractive ally, but with Robert looking forward to returning to England and Isabella going home to Spain, romance can be very complicated.

What’s Left of My World by C.A.Rudolph
About What’s Left of My World by C.A.Rudolph:
***** FREE for Kindle April 24th – April 28th! Upgrade to the Audiobook for only $1.99! *****
Lauren Russell often wondered why her father had been so adamant about teaching her skills that most other fathers wouldn’t even consider teaching their daughters. Ever since she was little, she had been taught how to live and survive outdoors, and how to use firearms to protect herself and those around her. Some of the training had been a bit extreme. Or had it been?
Many of her questions were answered the day the world as she knew it ended. Now, the skills she had been taught serve an essential purpose. They keep her and those she cares about alive.
Even in the sparsely-populated mountains of West Virginia, where she and her family have been forced to relocate for their safety after the collapse, peril lurks around every corner. Normal life has taken on a whole new meaning for Lauren, her family, and the community they have become a part of. In this different world, the new status quo is self-preservation. There is no more middle ground. People either live, or they die.
Lauren’s father didn’t make it home on the day the world changed forever, and she misses him more than anything. Now, in What’s Left of My World, she and her family must learn to endure life’s horrors—without him.
