3. Bourbon & Blood by Garrard Hayes

   

   About Bourbon & Blood by Garrard Hayes

   NOW ONLY $0.99! A fast-paced, terrifying ride into New York City’s crime underworld through the eyes of an unlucky veteran. All Bill really wants is a normal life with a nice girl, and he’s pretty sure the waitress he just met, Dana, is the one. But with his savings running low, and desperate to get out of his Hell’s Kitchen near-tenement apartment building, Bill, against his better judgment, agrees to a meeting with Mr. Sullivan–and immediately hits the point of no return…

   In the tradition of action-packed noir mysteries, comes a crime fiction story about an otherwise good guy “bent” bad when he’s pulled into the underbelly of the New York City crime scene.

   Drugs, sex slavery, prostitution, murder… Former soldier and decorated war hero Bill Conlin finds himself immersed in it all when he can’t find “respectable” work after his tour in Afghanistan. When his cousin, Jimmy, first tries to talk him into joining Irish mafia boss Frank Sullivan’s gang, Bill brushes him off. When he is forced into an interview there’s no escape. See what happens next.

   One thing leads to another, however, and the deeper he gets, the more he learns, and the more tangled up he becomes in a lifestyle he never wanted. But how long until he takes matters into his own hands to save his kidnapped girlfriend… And what will the ultimate cost be…

   ‘Bourbon & Blood’ proves that, while it may appear to be a million miles away from a war zone, home soil is often far from safe.

   Author Bio:
   Roberta Kagan is an American writer of Jewish and Romany decent. She writes Historical Fiction and Historical Romance, most of which is set during the holocaust. Although she never discounts the horrors of the time period, the main focus of her work is on ordinary people who prove to be strong heroic characters in unfathomable circumstances.

   Roberta Kagan

   Roberta Kagan (born in 1954) is an American novelist who primarily writes historical fiction, most notably set during World War II and the Holocaust, although she has featured other time periods and settings. Her fans have a particular fondness and appreciation for her World War II period books, such as All My Love Detrick (2012) and A Flicker of Light (2011), which are inspirational stories of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances.

   Biography

   Her father was of Romany descent, and her mother was Jewish. Her childhood was quite unusual, as the family was wealthy until she was 13 years old, when her father suffered a reversal of fortune in his business. The family went from being privileged to being poor in a matter of months, and Roberta learned some valuable lessons about true friendship and what really matters in life that have carried over into her books and short stories. The Romany teachings she received from her father have also had a significant impact on her writing, and several of her books feature Romany characters.

5. Intend Align Manifest: Creating Your Ideal Life in 10 Easy to Follow Steps by Helen Abbott

   About Intend Align Manifest: Creating Your Ideal Life in 10 Easy to Follow Steps by Helen Abbott:

   The late Jim Rohn once said “Set goals for what they will make of you to achieve them” and, as a practitioner within the field of personal growth and development, I subscribe to the notion that the purpose of goal setting is far more about the process of reaching the goal than it is about achieving the result.

   In my reading about successful people, regardless of the field in which they have excelled, the most common factor that they attribute their success to is their ability to set and work toward documented goals.

   Presidents of nations, heads of corporations, actors, celebrities, artists, authors and sports people alike all reference their ability to set clear goals as a factor in their ultimate success.

   Can it be that simple? Write down what you want, work toward the goal and achieve it? Often something that appears so simple has layers of complexity behind it and in some instances I have found goal setting to be challenging while in others, achieving something I have wanted in life has been so simple it felt completely effortless. In my early career everything I set my sights on, I achieved and, as soon as the achievement was ticked off and without stopping to take a breath, I would replace it with another goal, attacking it with a relentless determination (something I now understand to be a critical factor in my success!).

   After leaving the corporate world, entering the realm of motherhood and starting my own business I found it harder and harder to not only achieve goals but to even begin to work out what I wanted to do. I had changed, I didn’t know what I wanted but I knew that I didn’t want to re-enter the cut-throat corporate world that I had previously excelled in. At the same time, I yearned for the part of me that had, unknowingly, tapped into the recipe for success and I definitely wanted to understand the specifics of what it was that I used to do so that I could re-apply the process and principles to something I wanted to do today.

   Over the last five years I have spent most of my own personal development time on exploring the deeper concepts of goals setting or what many refer to as Manifesting. Reading books, watching DVD’s and listening to audios from great teachers and philosophers like Neville Goddard, Dr Wayne Dyer, Esther and Jerry Hicks, Jim Rohn and many more.

   We are all on a journey whether we know it or not of learning to reach our full potential in this world. Most of us have learned to see ourselves as a reflection of the outside world, a reflection of what is happening to us. But what if that is not how it works? What if we have the ability and the power to create our future?

   Setting life goals has often been a challenge for many and when goals are achieved, they often leave us asking “what next?” What most of us don’t realise is that goals are just the starting point of achieving a life we have imagined. If we are serious about living a fulfilling life and leaving a legacy, we must be working to create what we want at a much deeper level using the laws of manifesting.

   In this eye-opening book, Helen Abbot guides you through a ten step process that will enable you to not only understand what you want in life, but also who you want to become in the process of achieving your goals.

   In this book you will learn what you must know to create the life you have imagined, including:

   * A 10-step process that simplifies your manifesting process;

   * How to harness your imagination to accelerate your success;

   * Key tips to identify what it is your really want;

   * Strategies to “lock in” your ideal life.

8. Shadow Heart by Pamela Taeuffer

   

   About Shadow Heart by Pamela Taeuffer

   Nobody wants to talk about them, but there are events that occur in our lives that become deep dark secrets we hold inside. And they dramatically influence who we are and how we experience the world.

   Such is the case for seventeen year-old Nicky Young who was raised by an alcoholic father and disengaged mother. While Nicky tries to make her way into the world she is confronted by the demons of her dysfunctional and sometimes violent upbringing.

   As a young child, Nicky witnesses her older sister having her head slammed into a bowl of creamed corn by her father and then yanks his belt from the loops of his pants and begins to relentlessly beat her sister. It is experiences like this that ravage her self-esteem and make trusting men next to impossible…until at 17, Nicky meets Ryan Tilton, a high profile professional baseball player eight years her senior, who expresses an interest in her.
   While she is interested in Ryan, Nicky questions his ulterior motive for wanting to be with an inexperienced girl. Is this man a scoundrel or does he genuinely care about her? Nicky is torn between protecting her vulnerable heart and wanting to trust Ryan and develop a relationship. Ryan brings his own demons to the party – losing his father at the age of fourteen, his early fame and a sexual partner from his past who will not leave him alone.

   Will their young, uncertain love be enough to help them open their hearts and experience intimacy they both crave so deeply or is Nicky and Ryan on a collision course for failure?

   Loosely based on the author’s life growing up in San Francisco, this inspired work of fiction deals with the disturbing secrets siblings share, the dance between love and protecting one’s heart, and the innate desire to connect with another even when it means risking everything.
