   Author Bio:
   Like most natural health experts, T.C. Hale (aka Tony Hale) began his career in stand-up comedy. Touring professionally as a comic for nearly a decade, he never envisioned that he would one day teach the world how to sleep, poop, and even lose weight. On Valentine’s Day, 2004, Tony lost his voice and it never came back. After twenty-three doctors couldn’t figure out the problem, Tony decided it was time to dig for his own answers. Eight years later, not only did Tony figure out his own issues, he also happened upon hidden information about how to improve countless other health problems. Though Tony likes to boast about the fact that he holds no legitimate credentials (nor does he believe that we need any more “experts” from the same pool of knowledge already failing so many with health issues), he is greatly respected by his peers in the natural health industry. The biggest manufacturers in the health, fitness and organic products industries send Tony their products every year in hopes of winning one of his GearAwards. Beyond working with many celebrity clients, Tony is on the executive board of The Coalition For Health Education, a nonprofit association that helps professionals and their clients learn about health through nutrition. Additionally, Tony teaches monthly webinars about nutrition to doctors, nutritionists and other health care professionals from more than thirty-five countries. You can also find Tony producing documentaries like, WHY AM I SO FAT? A film that teaches the truth about weight loss while showcasing Tony’s client, Gabe Evans, who lost 200 pounds in 9 ½ months by treating Tony’s word as gospel.

6. Billionaire on Board

   About Billionaire on Board:

   Jude is happy.

   She’s almost twenty-seven, she has great friends, a great family, a job as a tour guide and a doctoral thesis to write. She lives in a beautiful city, she’s single and she likes it.

   Until the day she finds out she’s not invited to her oldest friend’s wedding because his madcap bride believes she has designs on him.

   Without further ado she invents a boyfriend and while she’s at it: why not make him rich and handsome?

   He would need a name of course, something truly jet set, something with flair!

   She tries to conjure one up when she remembers her time at an English girls’ school. One of her schoolmates had an older brother who was outrageously handsome and rich and his name had been Ryan Corvera-Fabergé.

   Honestly, can it get any more debonair?

   So Ryan Corvera-Fabergé it is.

   Too bad the real Ryan Corvera-Fabergé suddenly stands next to her in a five star hotel, two days before the wedding.

   Even worse, her game is up!

   The crispy billionaire turns out to be quite a handful and Jude has her work cut out for her.

   But enjoy her own account of the adventure.

   It has it all! Drama, romance, fun and passion… in no particular order

8. Whill of agora

   About Whill of agora:

   Book #1 of the Amazon Best-selling epic fantasy series Whill of Agora (Legends of Agora)

   “Michael Ploof is one of the indie good guys. Don’t be surprised if he is soon swooped up by one publisher or another. Whill of Agora is a fine example of why I think so.” – Award Winning Fantasy Author, M. R. Mathias

   Influenced by the works of Robert Jordan, George R.R. Martin, R. A.Salvator and Tolkien, Whill of Agora is a classic coming of age fantasy tale of magic, mayhem, friendship and war. Set in the realm of Agora during the Draggard Wars, five centuries after the fall of the elven lands, Whill of Agora brings readers on a heart pounding epic adventure with a colorful cast of characters that are sure to become fan favorites.

   Every so often, an epic adventure emerges that makes the blood surge, the spine tingle, and the heart smile page after exhilarating page. Such is Whill of Agora, Michael James Ploof’s action-packed fantasy that visits strange new lands as it unveils how one exceptional young man named Whill makes full use of fierce wits, superior skills, and relentless will to help defend the land of Agora from the monstrous Draggard. With plenty of drama and action packed battle scenes, Whill of Agora will enthrall anyone on the quest for great adventure, good times, and an infectiously optimistic outlook on even the darkest and most dangerous of days.

   It is the year 5170 in the land Agora, where humans, dwarves, and elves have existed in peace for centuries. Now, however, the human King Addakon has invaded and waged war on neighboring Isladon. The once peaceful Kingdoms of Agora are on the brink of continental war. The Dark Elf Eadon, Addakon’s master, and his army of Dragon-Elf crossbreeds, the Draggard, threaten to conquer all kingdoms. The final hour has arrived.

   Enter young Whill, a nineteen-year-old ranger with battle savvy and untapped abilities. Having spent years roaming Agora and training with his mentor Abram, Whill has become a bright intellectual and a master of combat. What he seeks most, however, is the identity of his birth parents. Instead, he finds a tumultuous terrain and a prophecy placing him in the center of the struggle.

   Along the way, Whill encounters an equally inspired group of companions that are matched in skill and mission. These include Rhunis the Dragon Slayer, the young Tarren, the fearless Dwarf Roakore, the beguiling warrior Elf Avriel, and the powerful Zerafin. As Whill joins forces, he forges bonds far mightier than their escalating travails. With high adventure and fierce friendship, Whill of Agora will capture your imagination and grip your heart during every super-charged escapade that Agora’s bold and grinning brotherhood embraces.

   Michael was born during a winter blizzard in the late 70′s. He grew up in the Boonies and spent his first decade of life fighting monsters, aliens, werewolves and vampires. He quit school the first day of his senior year of high school and along with his band members and girlfriend, took a greyhound bus to Fairfax California, something he had always dreamed about doing. After nine months and many crazy experiences and soup kitchens he and his girlfriend returned to NY with a baby on the way. Joining the workforce with blue hair and no education that mattered to the “real world trolls” he began to work toward supporting his new family. Three years later the family grew with the addition of a baby girl. Michael spent 14 years at a Casino dealing cards and later as a manager. He has recently quit his day job to focus on writing full-time. He is still married to his high school sweetheart.
