   Author Bio:
   Bobette Kyle has owned and published the My Online Wedding Help website since 2006 and for more than 20 years has made planning and strategy, which most always involve financial constraints, her life’s work. As an employee, she held several positions in charge of all areas of marketing planning and implementation, learning that breaking a project or goal into chunks and staying organized helped immensely. Her planning experience also includes authoring a book on marketing planning, as well as co-owning two planner companies. She used those deeply ingrained skills to develop the seven secrets and uncover ways to save money during wedding planning, which she shares in “Dream Wedding on a Dime.”

   Bobette also loves finding bargains, probably due to her early days as a single mom working her way through college. The only thing that makes her happier than figuring out how to get a designer item for 70 percent off retail or completing a project for less money is sharing the way she did it.

   Finally, like most people who are getting married on a limited budget, she didn’t know all the wedding-related details when she started. For that reason, she has tried to take advice to the next step by answering the questions she had in the beginning and is sure many others have as well.

2. McCarthys of Gansett Island Boxed Set by Marie Force

   About McCarthys of Gansett Island Boxed Set by Marie Force:

   With more than 1 million ebooks sold since Maid for Love debuted in 2011, the New York Times bestselling McCarthys of Gansett Island Series has become one of the most beloved romance series available today. Read the first three books in the series: Maid for Love, Fool for Love and Ready for Love in this special offering.

   Book 1: Maid for Love

   Maddie Chester is determined to leave her hometown of Gansett Island, a place that has brought her only bad memories and ugly rumors. Then she’s knocked off her bike on the way to her housekeeping job at McCarthy’s Resort Hotel by Gansett’s “favorite son,” Mac McCarthy. He’s back in town to help his father with preparations to sell the family resort and has no intention of staying long. When Mac accidentally sends Maddie flying over the handlebars, badly injuring her, he moves in to nurse her back to health and help care for her young son. He soon realizes his plans for a hit-and-run visit to the island are in serious jeopardy, and he just may be “maid” for love.

   Book 2: Fool for Love

   Joe Cantrell, owner of the Gansett Island Ferry Company, has been in love with Janey McCarthy for as long as he can remember. At the same time, Janey has been dating or engaged to doctor-in-training David Lawrence. When things go horribly wrong between David and Janey, she calls her “fifth brother” Joe, one of the few people in her close circle who lives on the mainland. Janey decides a few days with Joe is just what she needs before she goes home to the island to face her parents and family with the news of her broken engagement. It was bad enough for Joe loving Janey from afar, but having her in his house is pure torture. Will he take advantage of this opportunity to show her what they could have together? And what will Joe’s best friend and Janey’s protective older brother Mac have to say about it?

   Book 3: Ready for Love

   For four of the best summers of his young life, Luke Harris was in love with Sydney Donovan, a wealthy seasonal visitor to Gansett Island. Then Sydney went off to college and never came back. She married another man and had two children while Luke remained on the island, working at McCarthy’s Gansett Marina and wondering what had gone wrong between him and the only woman he ever loved. Fifteen months after Sydney suffers the tragic loss of her husband and children, she’s returned to Gansett to figure out what’s next, and that may very well be a rekindled love affair with the one man from her past she’s never forgotten. But is she ready for a second chance at love?

   The story picks up with Book 4, Falling for Love, with six other books available in the series and more to come from Gansett Island!

   “With the McCarthy’s of Gansett Island, Marie Force makes you believe in the power of true love and happily ever after. Over and over again.” Carly Phillips, NY Times Bestselling Author of the Serendipity series.

3. How I Taught My Kids to become RESPONSIBLE using simple household chores

   About How I Taught My Kids to become RESPONSIBLE using simple household chores:

   “How I Taught My Kids to become RESPONSIBLE using simple household chores” by Justin Kregger.

   Do you ever feel like you do all the work around the house? That your kids expect clean clothes to appear in the closet, food to appear in the cupboard, or the house to clean itself?

   Have you ever looked up after a big meal to find everyone in your family had disappeared leaving you with the dishes? Or maybe you are beginning to feel like a short order cook or a maid as you work while everyone else is watching television.

   You’ve probably experienced frustration at some point when trying to involve your children in chores. Let’s face it, sometimes it’s just easier to do the job yourself and spare the hassle…but what are you doing to your kids?

   Today’s parenting involves doing everything possible for your children and making sure they are happy at the expense of actually learning anything new. Are you making your kids more self-sufficient in life?

   By not giving our children opportunities to shine on their own, but not showing we trust and believe they can do it, we rob them of the growth opportunities. We rob them of the sense of accomplishment that comes from completing a task once thought impossible. We teach them that they can’t do it. That is truly the saddest part.

   This book isn’t about household chores and cleaning. Doing simple house work builds confidence and gets the kids ready for being on their own. When children are given responsibilities, they develop better self-confidence and feel important. You will see how using these extremely simple techniques led to transformational changes in our family!

4. Hook: Why Websites Fail to Make Money by Andrew McDermott & Rachel McDermott

   About Hook: Why Websites Fail to Make Money by Andrew McDermott & Rachel McDermott:

   Most websites will struggle (and fail) to make money.

   Your website is a digital lighthouse for your business. It’s meant to attract and guide customers to you. Naturally, it impacts the success of your marketing efforts and dictates whether people will actually buy from you.

   The problem? Most websites are getting it wrong.

   It’s not your fault. But the fact remains, most of us have been lied to. We were trained to give customers the direct opposite of what they need.

   In Hook Why Websites fail to make money, you’ll learn:

   * Why customers don’t seem to care about your solution to their problems

   * Why they always seem to resist – even when they need your help

   * How to fascinate and attract the type of customers you want

   * The inevitable part of selling that gets worse when you avoid it

   * Why it’s a struggle to “seal the deal” and close the sale

   * Presentation conflicts that prevent customers from buying

   * How to move customers through the buying process naturally, without coercion or manipulation.

   Hook shares answers to these problems in two parts, Story and Method. Each part offers different, yet complimentary lessons on why websites fail, how customers buy and ultimately, how to change things for the better.

   Author Bio:

   Why did we create “Hook” and what brought us here?

   Like most people, we’ve learned a lot by working with our clients. And we started to notice some patterns. Namely, the people we talked to were facing similar problems.

   They had been giving customers the opposite of what they needed and they were not seeing the results they wanted. It’s common for people to create something and just sit back and wait for people to come.

   But the “if you build it they will come” mantra just isn’t effective.

   So we spent a lot of time sharing information and educating people on new ideas, new ways of thinking about and approaching their business. Once we started sharing all this great stuff we ended up sharing even more, which makes sense because if something’s good you crave more right?

   As our business grew it became difficult to keep up. Sharing and consulting started to take a huge amount of our time. Some clients wanted to spend three to four hours a day in meetings. Then there’s the prospective customers who want to feel confident you “know your stuff” so they ask for several meetings where they spend time picking your brain (testing you)–which is pretty common.

   But one-on-one sharing with lots of people is downright exhausting.

   That became clear as we found ourselves repeating the same concepts over and over to each new client. We didn’t want to stop sharing (we actually wanted to share more) but we also needed more time. We needed to multiply ourselves. We needed our time back and we needed some leverage.

   Hook became our solution. A way to to share helpful, valuable content with people that need it.

   TOP 100 E ROMANCE ON AMAZON (THREE)

   Three men are better than one…

   Secrets, surprises, and submission – three torrid tales of triple passion!

   THREE

   Hot steamy dreams… a sexy stranger… and his two brothers… all add up to a sexy adventure she’ll never forget.

   Lori’s steamy dreams about a hot hard stranger are hitting fever pitch. She needs way more than eye contact and a smile across a crowded subway station. An instant connection sizzled between them and now Lori, who’s never believed in love at first sight, is its helpless victim.

   When Lori goes to her best friend’s cabin for the weekend to spend time with Marie, her new husband and his brothers, she’s surprised to wind up face-to-face with her fantasy stranger. But he’s Marie’s husband!

   When she meets his brothers, however, she finds that there just might be a way to make her dream come true.

   Now Lori is experiencing her wildest fantasy yet, three ultra-sexy men all focused on her. But she wants more than a steamy dream brought to life. Because she’s in love. But can her sexy stranger return her love?

   Note: This intriguing short story is scorching hot, with more than one handsome hunk to bring your wildest fantasies to life. Consider yourself warned!

   THREE MEN AND A BRIDE

   What do you do when you can’t stop lusting after your new husband’s two gorgeous brothers?

   Can Marie successfully suppress her fantasies of the three brothers making wild, luxuriant love to her, or will she have to endanger her happy marriage by admitting her feelings to her husband, Drake?

   Although this is the second story in the erotic THREE series, this steamy read is the prequel to Three. You can enjoy Three Men and a Bride on it’s own, or after you have read THREE.

   THREE SECRETS

   Keeping one secret is intriguing. Two is naughty. Three… deserves to be punished.

   Sharing secrets has never been so exhilarating…

   When they met in Paris, Nicole and Abel enjoyed a sensual, romantic two month fling. The last thing Nicole wanted was to fall head over heels for this sweet, loving man, because she knew he would never accept the truth about her. Unfortunately, the heart wants what it wants, and hers wanted Abel. But Nicole was not one to be controlled by anyone or anything, so once they returned home, she walked away.

   When the pain of losing Abel became too much, Nicole finally decided to share her secret with him. Little did she know he had a secret of his own.

   Will Abel’s secret extinguish Nicole’s craving for him once and for all? Will Nicole’s revelation bring Abel to his knees?

   This is a collection of super hot short stories.

   Length: 25,500 words

   Plus excerpts from The Office Slave (Volume 1 of The Office Slave Series) and His To Possess (about billionaires, bikers and bad boys all rolled into one).
