1. Ondine by Emma Raveling

   About Ondine by Emma Raveling:

   “I shouldn’t get involved.”

   Rebellious and headstrong, sixteen-year-old Kendra Irisavie doesn’t have much respect for authority. An ondine with the powerful gift of Virtue, she uses her tough attitude and Empath magic to navigate through high school and keep others away.

   Because being an ondine also means keeping secrets.

   Kendra and her mother are Rogue water elementals in the middle of an ancient war. They hide among humans, their survival constantly threatened by monstrous Aquidae demons.

   Along with a rigorous training regimen to mold Kendra into a lethal fighter, her mother has instituted four rules to keep her safe.

   Trust no one. Relationships are weaknesses. Emotional attachments are dangerous. Be responsible only for yourself.

   But when Kendra witnesses a classmate in trouble, she intervenes and her decision to break the rules comes at a price.

   Sometimes, humans could be more dangerous than demons.

   Ondine is a prequel novella for the sweeping young adult urban / paranormal fantasy series, the Ondine Quartet.

2. Holistic Fitness

   About Holistic Fitness:

   I invite you to join me and brainstorm with me!

   Achieving things and getting stronger in the process is the best feeling that you can possibly get. This is natural high. Holistic fitness is a non-stop natural high that I want you to experience…I want you to be an achiever and this is what this book is supposed to help you with- achieving things no matter what circumstances life may throw at you…

   It is my intention that reading this book will help you:

   • Get more stuff done no matter what

   • Light your internal fire and driving force to make everything “doable”

   • Develop empathy

   • Become more motivated

   • Develop real self-confidence (not the artificial one based on how you act and how high you keep your head in front of others and how you change your voice to feel more confident, but the real, internal one that will make you believe in yourself no matter what).

   • Enjoy being yourself, your real self

   • Start enjoying criticism, and yes, the pain that you get when others criticize you- yes, this is what I mean, you can enjoy it and draw pleasure from it. Pain can become pleasure.

   I want you to run up the hill and enjoy the process…! This is what life is all about. It’s about toughening up and enjoying it!

   Author Bio:
   ”FALL IN LOVE WITH WELLNESS = RESTORE BALANCE AND ZEST FOR LIFE!”

   Marta is a certified Massage Therapist and a Wellness Coach. Her passion for wellness also led her to study Holistic Nutrition, Aroma Therapy, Herbal Remedies and Homeopathy. She believes that Natural Therapies are a life-long study and she never stops investigating.

   ”GLOBAL HOLISTIC WELLNESS COACHING FOR MODERN PEOPLE…”

   After getting started on massage, she realized that it’s not only about manual therapy. She wanted to expand her services and make them more holistic. She became fascinated with the power of the mind after following coaches like Tony Robbins. Even though she loves being a massage therapist she decided to combine it with coaching and as a result, her very own Holistic Wellness coaching for modern people was born.

   ”NATURAL THERAPY COACHING FOR BODY AND MIND BALANCE…”

   Another ambition that Marta had was to create a global holistic health project- this is why she got involved in writing. She knew that her books could be the best tool to set up her global holistic wellness project so she could spread wellness all over the globe, not only in Barcelona area where she currently lives. Marta is now a full-time author dedicated to wellness, health, motivation and holistic therapy and healing.

3. Ange’el

   About Ange’el:

   “Sky stood up, followed him, and placed her sword on his neck. ‘Do it Sky! For mercy’s sake, end my torment.’ He challenged her in a husky voice, grabbing her hand and digging her sword farther into his neck.”

   Morgan arrives in New York, where she is speaking about her Hope Foundation at several high-profile events. When she finds out that her life is at risk, she is not sure whom to trust—disoriented by an intense attraction to a very charming and controlling Gabriel, she attempts to regain control of her life only to find herself in the middle of a war between different factions of an ancient civilisation. The people of Ahe’ey hold the key to the future of humankind within their genes. To unlock it, Morgan and Gabriel need to help them move beyond the medieval rules that are holding them back. The price of failure may be the end of the world.

4. Tales of the Late Twentieth Century by James Snyder

   About Tales of the Late Twentieth Century by James Snyder:

   An aging, ex-musician working inside the incinerator chamber of an old 19th century hotel discovers a locked room that contains a Book of Souls of tenants of the past century. A soldier returning from the Iraq War meets a beautiful and enigmatic girl waging her own military campaign, as darkly terrifying as the one he left behind. The son of a New Orleans mobster hit-man receives a beyond-the-grave message from his once-abusive, now-dead father that changes everything he thought he knew about their lives. A homeless man, collecting cans to survive, finds himself being followed by a stranger he is sure is the reincarnation of Dick Tracy. A woman who has lost her Texas ranchman husband and any further meaning to her life, is suddenly contacted by a young runaway cousin whose parents are also dead, and is now in hot pursuit of her own aimless existence.

   From tragic to comic and in-between, these and other tales journey and explore the zeitgeist, the spirit of our age, which was the late twentieth century. (Short Stories)

   Author Bio:
   James Snyder was born in Memphis, Tennessee and fell in love with the cadence and sound of storytelling as a child, listening to the meandering tales of his Southern grandmothers and great aunts. While still a child, his family moved to Napa Valley, California where he attended middle and high school, and began taking writing classes at the local college. He left after a year to join the military, and was a soldier with a tactical mobile operations unit in Germany. It was there, while pulling a Harz mountaintop guard duty one night during a snowstorm, he had the chance encounter with another soldier that ultimately became the genesis for his debut military thriller AMERICAN WARRIOR.

   He is also the author of the suspense thriller DESOLATION RUN, the young-adult/new-adult trilogy THE BEAUTIFUL-UGLY, the short story collection TALES OF THE LATE TWENTIETH CENTURY, and other literary works.

   “Berlin Diaries” is his blog at JamesSnyder.net where he further discusses the backgrounds of his writings.

   He currently lives in Texas.
