Wet by Aria Ford 

About Wet by Aria Ford

I know I can’t have Lindsay.
She’s practically family.
She’s also a client.
I’m training her for the Olympics, not for my bed.

They say I’m the toughest swimming trainer out there. I’m not afraid to push hard—that’s why my clients win. When Lindsay’s trainer moves away, I couldn’t let her down. I stepped in and took over. I never stopped to think what a bad idea that was.

Because now I’ve seen her slick and wet, panting for breath.
All alone with me in the pool.
Wanting me just as bad as I want her.
We shouldn’t cross that line. Even though I want her more than I’ve ever wanted anything in my life. Her brother is the best friend I ever had and he’d never forgive me.
Now I can’t stop thinking about her. I want her all the time. Once I’ve had her, I can’t get enough. We’ll have to keep this our dirty little secret.

She was the best, worst thing I’ve ever done, so how can I stop? I know we can’t keep the secret forever, but will I lose her when the truth comes out? What if it’s more than just lust—what if she’s the one?

Accidents Happen 

About Accidents Happen

If I asked you what Death would look like, you’d probably go for something along the lines of an angry skeleton wearing a monk’s robe and carrying a very sharp farm implement with which to rip your soul from your body—am I right? Maybe he’d even have glowing yellow orbs where his eyes should be and speak with a voice that comes from his toes and goes right through you, despite the fact he doesn’t actually have a larynx or any vocal chords to speak of. And he’d have a strange obsession with egg-timers.

In fact, apart from the angry bit, he was nothing like that.

Life was a bitch, but if Tabitha Brownlee was to be believed, Death was an alcoholic megalomaniac with a penchant for single malt and eyebrows that met in the middle. The problem was, that he alone had the power to put her soul back into her body and evict the son of a bitch who’d taken her place.

Author Bio:
Sharon Karaa is a mass of contradictions, but two facets of her character have always battled for supremacy; her logical self (let’s call him Frank) and her artistic side (lets her call Misty). Until recently, Frank won every battle, forcing Sharon into a life based on most probable outcome and, to give him his credit, it led to a fairly comfortable if rather boring life. Then Misty took up kick boxing and gave Frank a good kick in the goodies. Sharon was first published at the tender age of fifteen. Flush with success, she waited more years than she cares to admit, before making the decision to become an independent author and publishing her first book in 2014. Sharon writes comedy because she needs something in her life she can laugh at, other than herself. Sharon lives with her husband in a little village north of Newcastle, UK. She doesn’t have a cat.

HIS REDNECK GIRL 

About HIS REDNECK GIRL

HIS REDNECK GIRL is a new release at Amazon. It’s book #1 in my Possum Hollow Series. Humorous contemporary romance I like to refer to as hick-lit.

Jimmie Joe Johnson has spent years living up to his hound dog reputation. If he can’t have the one female he truly wants, then any female will do. When he isn’t off diddlin’ some female, he’s practicing for pool playoffs, determined to get his pool team to Vegas. Not only for bragging rights, but for the free trip to ‘Sin City’ and cash prize that comes along with it.
Baylee Jean Brown has never gotten over her first and only love, Jimmie Joe Johnson. So when she discovers the truth about why he really ended things with her all those years before, she sets out to get her man back. And no other thigh-parting female is going to stand in her way. She just has to find a way to make him take notice of her, considering he’d been avoiding her since that day her spell-threatening aunt (yes, she does come from a long line of witches), threatened to place his man-parts in a jar on her windowsill.
Avoiding Baylee Jean Brown in a town the size of Possum Hollow is hard enough, but all of the sudden she’s dressing sexy and aiming all that female heat in his direction. He tries to convince her that she’s better off without him, but how can he expect her to listen to reason when his own heart and body refuse to? Now his man-parts are in a whole different kind of danger. Not because her aunt might still carry through with her threat to pickle them, but because he knows no other woman will ever do.

“Irreverent, bawdy, laugh out loud funny. The most hilarious book I’ve read in years–maybe ever! In fact, I’m pretty sure this book is the reason the term “ROFLMAO” was invented. If you combined Jeff Foxworthy’s humor and Jason Stackhouse’s good looks and libido, you’d end up with Jimmie Joe Johnson, one smokin’ hot hound dog and one hilarious read!” –New York Times bestselling author C.L. Wilson

Keep Smiling, Your Teacup is Levitating 

About Keep Smiling, Your Teacup is Levitating

A paranormal memoir, and useful strategies for intuitive living.

Imagine sitting across from your life insurance broker, and when queried about your mental health, you want to blurt out: “I see dead people, but there is nothing wrong with me.”
More than one boyfriend ran for the hills because I “saw” future events, such as a fire that endangered the lives of two children. Then again, I once passed on a call-back for an acting audition because the producer had a creepy vibe. He was later convicted of murdering his lead actress.
I “heard” my boyfriend’s name before we exchanged the first words. My dead cat visited and scared a friend away. I scheduled a psychiatric evaluation when I “saw” the events of September 11th on a beach in August of 2001; I thought I had to be insane. A decade after his death, our late landlord demanded we foster rescue dogs even though I prefer cats. Holding someone’s briefcase revealed a future drug overdose; “reading” keys announced an unlikely pregnancy. Viewing a rental property comes with a detailed report of the previous tenant’s history; divorce, disease, and depression linger in a space like muck. Telepathy has proven more efficient than text messages or shopping lists. And yes, a teacup levitated across a table and was set on the floor without spilling the tea.
The paranormal is my normal. It wasn’t easy to accept because “seeing things” is only popular in the plotline of a Halloween movie; rarely in real life. These are true stories, and sound advice how to navigate the paranormal without questioning your sanity.

Let me take you for a ride.

Yet even humans tire of war, and so have allowed the galaxy to enjoy a time of peace. But the ambitious are quick to cast peace aside and General Hexera has as much as done so when she wakes her armies from a fifty-eight year slumber endured in hibernation pods.
The General will need all her strength and the malice of her cunning, for the species she hopes to conquer is the most dangerous of foe, her own kind. Her path to conquest is promised in blood and fire, that is until the small crew of the Missing Madam intrudes on her cruel design. . .Not on purpose of course.

A Dad’s Fun Guide to Raising Happy Daughters; Imagination Activities Against Body-Snatching Zombie Naysayers and Other Foes of Happiness by John Griffith 

About A Dad’s Fun Guide to Raising Happy Daughters; Imagination Activities Against Body-Snatching Zombie Naysayers and Other Foes of Happiness by John Griffith

The voice of today’s society – the media – (unintentionally) works against happiness. There is a constant, streaming bombardment of “Bad News.” Young girls are encouraged to find power in sexuality, suffering, and entitlement. Addictive behavior is sensationalized and glamorized. Many in the media promote lying, deception, and revenge as profitable. There are even messages teaching how to get away with murder.

Where are the messages regarding the incredible power of choice, personal responsibility, and accountability? Why isn’t every growing girl told that she is responsible for her happiness?

The impact a father has on his daughter – especially during these modern times – is both profound and immense. Fathers can’t do much about the focus of the media. Smut sells. But, it is not the media’s duty to provide daughters with the tools necessary for a happy life.

In this one-of-a-kind, educational, witty, and humorous “fun guide,” Griffith reveals the secrets of happiness that every dad should teach his daughter so that she can grow into the amazing, powerful, world-changing woman she was meant to become.

Recognizing that a father’s impact upon his daughter is achieved through healthy and personal interactions, Griffith’s guidance is written in a format intended to be shared between father and daughter. Using the powerful tools of metaphoric story-telling, introspective letters, and creative activities, Griffith shares the seven keys to happiness that are critical to staving off the effect of the foes of happiness that permeate society today.

With topics such as art, history, physics, spirituality, philosophy, earth science, unexplainable phenomena, pop-culture, science fiction, and more, Griffith teaches both father and daughter the keys to remaining happy throughout life by embracing considered thought, emotion, and imagination. Inside this guide to happiness, dads will learn how to teach their daughters the keys to:
¥ Living with “naysayers.” Girls, more than their male counterparts, encounter gender-imposed limits about what they can achieve in life. Using Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam as a point of focus, dads and daughters learn how to navigate living in the midst of others that say “You can’t, because. . .”
¥ Dealing with painful past events. One of the greatest foes of happiness a daughter will face is the handling of unchangeable, past events. Using George A. Romero’s zombie movies and the soaring zombie popularity that is prevalent today, dads and daughters learn how to let go of what cannot be changed, how to heal from hurtful experiences, and how to handle peers that use past events as means for manipulation and a source of power.
¥ Staying focused on what is desired in life, rather than what is unwanted. As a daughter grows older, she will be encouraged by society and her peers to focus on what is unwanted. Using Taoism, the Tao Te Ching and yin yang, daughters (and dads) will explore the powerless and limiting nature of “shadow” thinking and will learn instead, how to use the spirit of desire – “light thinking” – to pursue and achieve her dreams and aspirations.
¥ Finding solutions when obstacles and challenges are encountered. Every person is born a problem solver. If not, no one would learn to roll over, crawl, walk or ride a bike. But as a daughter grows older and the challenges become more complex, solution-mindedness takes a back seat to stagnation. Using one of America’s most popular inventors as a source for inspiration, Griffiths guides fathers to reconnect a daughter with seeing obstacles as opportunities for growth, instead of limiting barriers.
¥ Living with the expectation that the future is hopeful and rewarding, and is working out for the good. Worry is one of the most destructive emotional responses that befalls a growing daughter. Drawing inspiration from H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine, Einstein’s time-dilation theories, and the Industrial Revolution, Griffith shows dads and daughters how to avoid the mentally paralyzing and physically harmful effects from illogical worrying.
¥ Maintaining a grateful attitude, and acknowledging the incredible miracles that are abundant, and occurring every day. Using a miracle that has been occurring in Central America, in the same month for more than 150 years, Griffith shows the immense power of possibilities that come from gratitude and faith.
¥ Avoiding self-judgment and self-criticism, choosing instead to recognize that life is unfolding in a manner that is working out for the best, and that no “mistake” is too costly. Using the water cycle and the three forms of water, a daughter is connected with her own three forms of mind, body, and spirit, and how each of these forms functions and work together.

Dads, you have the opportunity to be the single most important male role model in your little girl’s life. She needs your influence. The investment you make in the life of your daughter will have infinite returns. Follow John Griffith’s advice in this guide, and you and your princess will reap never-ending rewards.

Author Bio:
John Griffith is a devoted father and is currently raising three daughters. For most of their lives, he has been a single parent. His fatherhood story is jaw-dropping, inspirational, emotionally charged, and spiritual.

In his own words, “I was the least likely candidate to be a father. If pairing a dad with his soon-to-be-born children was done via a selection process by some committee of “model” parents, I would have been an unlikely choice. But that’s ok. I am in select company. The greatest stories we humans tell are the triumphs of the underdog against seemingly insurmountable odds.

“Nobody believed David could defeat Goliath, except David of course. The Continental Army should not have prevailed against the armies of the British Empire in the American Revolution. In the 1980 Winter Olympic Games, the USA hockey team defeated the heavily-favored Soviets and brought home the gold medal in what became known as “The Miracle on Ice.” Who saw that one coming?”

If there is one phrase to describe John Griffith, “passion-fueled creativity” would be it.

Griffith is the creator and owner of the blog Dads Raising Daughters (www.dadsraisingdaughters.com). The mission of Griffith’s blog: “To make today’s world a better place through the expansion of fatherhood in the lives of daughters, and to make tomorrow’s world a better place by empowering daughters to believe and pursue their dreams, fully expecting that their dreams are possible as they grow into amazing, world-changing women.”

Griffith is a guest author on a Family Law blog, providing encouragement and advice to dads as they navigate their way through this new era of gender equality where fathers and mothers are recognized as equals in regards to parenting capabilities. According to Griffith, “Fathers don’t have a lot of history to use as a source of knowledge and inspiration, so it is important to provide information and messages of support to fill in the gaps.”

Griffith has been identified as a hero in Ralph Zuranski’s “In Search of Heroes” program, and is the subject of Zuranski’s book In Search of Heroes: John Griffith’s Story. For the past 50 years, “In Search of Heroes” has researched heroes, heroism and the archetype roles that are an integral part of a hero’s journey.

Griffith is well educated in science, music, history, religion, and mathematics; graduating Magna Cum Laude from Texas Tech University. During Griffith’s college days, he toured America and England with the experimental music ensemble, The Paxton Group, collaborating with sound and visual poetry artist Paula Claire (Oxford) and performing at festivals featuring modern music pioneers such as Jean-Michel Jarre and John Cage.

Griffith arranged the score for the pilot of a children’s television show which premiered at the USA Children’s Film Festival. He is co-composer a children’s musical and has served as music director and composer for a multitude of theater productions.

He has performed for high-ranking bishops of the Catholic church, and when trekking across the globe, makes it a habit of finding the most popular blues jams where he sits in and hammers on the piano with the local stars in countries such as Canada, Bermuda, England, New Zealand and even Qatar.

And that is just his musical side.

Griffith has advanced technology skills, which he has been putting to use for the last 18 years in Healthcare IT, most recently at an executive level. He has played a pivotal role in advancing healthcare startups to the next stage.

He is one of those rare individuals that possess high technical acumen, creative vision, and strategy, the ability to “see” solutions that are not readily apparent, advanced interpersonal “sales-esque” skills, and articulates messages with clarity and in a vernacular that is audience-appropriate. He is a natural people connector, leader and relationship builder, and he inspires others to believe in possibilities.

Griffith is an expert in breaking down barriers and navigating labyrinths to solve complex and strategic problems involving people, processes, and technology. His peers view him a “Chief Creativity Officer” who couples out-of-the-box thinking with unbridled creativity to develop innovative IT solutions for connecting systems, information, and people together.

But the most noteworthy achievement of John Griffith’s life is in fact, his emergence from a 10-year period of being “utterly wayward.” Shortly after Griffith graduated college, he decided to go on a quest to find himself.

About those years, Griffith writes, “Instead of finding myself, I got lost. Hopelessly lost. If it wasn’t for the birth of my first daughter in 1998, I am confident that my life would have ended before the new millennium. I had become a version of what Pink Floyd describes in their classic, “Comfortably Numb.” I was miserable, numb, and comfortable with that, I was apathetic. I believed the end of my life was near, but I didn’t care. It is still difficult for me to reconcile the man I was before my first daughter was born, with the man I became after she was born. It was a radical transformation.”

In addition to John Griffith’s three daughters Shade, Reese and Harmony, he has one adult son (Aaron), whom he adopted just before going on the 10-year journey described above.

About Aaron, Griffith states “I missed his growing up years because I guess I was trying to grow up too. Now I am learning how to connect with an adult son that I forsake during most of his childhood. He is beautiful, open-hearted, kind, sensitive, witty, humorous, and loving. He has been amazing in his response and his willingness to open his heart to me. I hope to write someday a book about connecting with adult children when the younger years between a father and son were missed. Nothing is ever lost in this life; there are only gains to be had. But Aaron has chosen to expand those gains. He is remarkable.”

Recently, John Griffith remarried an incredible woman and now has her and two stepsons to add to the family. Griffith sees new books in his future from this experience as well. Jokingly, he said “I probably will never write a book on marriage. But I just might write a book on remarriage and blended families. Something like, If at First You Don’t Succeed; The Remarriage I Finally Got Right.”



Abandon Control by Libre Paley 

About Abandon Control by Libre Paley

Abandon Control is the story of Kenna in her own words. An independent successful women, she has often taken advantage of the extraordinary services offered by ‘the Estate’, an exclusive establishment catering to women’s every erotic fantasy. And never leaves disappointed.
This time Kenna has chosen to play a wild card, meaning her hosts will choose and set up the scenarios in which she must participate. The night that follows could take Kenna too far out her meticulously managed comfort zone, or it could deliver her to hitherto unimagined heights of sexual pleasure. By surrendering control, will she find a new way to liberation? Abandon Control is an erotic and sensual ‘long short story’ with a literary slant. It contains candid scenes of a sexual nature, featuring nudity, multiple partners and consensual light domination and bondage.

“I am Casey Adams I was born in the UK. The idea for writing childrens stories came to me while having a conversation with my 5 year old son. His view on the world is very different from mine and he finds the simple things in life funny. The things we take for granted as adults is often very different in a child’s mind.

Following one of our topical conversations I decided to write a non fiction book to help explain bodily functions in a way he would understand and find funny.
The body goo series began!! With my son as my creative director. Along with my other children they are my most important critics I check the book have enough educational content as well as humor before completing a book.

Alex P. Keaton was my idol growing up. I’ve always had that dual nature of being interested in business (numbers, wearing a suit, working in an office) while also being a creative at heart (singing/playing guitar in alt/punk bands, writing, and acting).

My academic advisor in college told me to learn a trade after I said I wanted to be a writer. Being 20 and infatuated with Goethe and the Romantic movement, that wasn’t what I wanted to hear. I wanted to be an ARTIST, not work in an office.

Fast-forward 25 years and the office worker has won out the majority of the time while I’ve still dabbled as an artist. Having worked for many years in corporate recruiting, I’ve always had side gigs, be it photography, playing in a band, DJing, writing freelance entertainment articles, acting, or voiceovers.

I live in Chicago with my beautiful wife and am currently working on several upcoming books while also commanding my day job and Caribbean adventures.

My gap year was taken when I was 55years old and has just continued from there. After travelling the world for a few years we have now settled in Spain to catch our breath.
My writing career started half way around the USA, when I realised for the first time in my life I had time on my hand to write a book. I hope to use some of my experiences within my books; you will find a bit of Fiji in Goodbye, Hello.
I like to write in different genres; sweet, sizzle and spicy romances with a touch of women’s fiction and also nonfiction books to help authors and readers
Apart from my non-fiction book; How to Write a Simple Book Review,. I can’t help but add humour, because we laugh in life and I try to make my books about people who we can all relate to. I do hope you enjoy them.
I expect that after a few years in Spain I will start to get itchy feet. There are still so many countries I want to visit, before my husband and I get too old to enjoy them. So you never know I may bump into you in Thailand, Sri Lanka, Italy or even the USA as there is still so much to see there.
Enjoying life while I can, best regards

Marked for Them (Witches of Rose Lake Book 1) by Lia Davis 

About Marked for Them (Witches of Rose Lake Book 1) by Lia Davis

Hiding out in a mental institution isn’t glamorous. I call it surviving.

I’m blissfully unaware of the world outside the walls—and spell—that hides me. Until the ghost shows up with talks about his friends being marked by a demon. Oh, but not just any demon. The same one who has marked me and wants me dead.

My Father.

Fearful daddy dearest would be my next uninvited guess, I make the choice to follow the ghost to his four, very alive friends. To my relief they want my father dead as much as I do. One thing I’m not prepared for is finding out that Zane—the alpha wolf shifter—is my mate, and the demon mark links the five of us—ghost included—together on a deeper level than I thought.

Teaming up and facing the demon stirs up passion and dark secrets none of us are ready to face.

Was it worth it? Hell, YES!

A History Of Efon-Alaaye Kingdom From 1180 A.D. To Present Day: A Study in Militarism, Heroism and Adventurism 

About A History Of Efon-Alaaye Kingdom From 1180 A.D. To Present Day: A Study in Militarism, Heroism and Adventurism

About 1040 A.D., the Ayes of Iraye left the suburb of Ile Ife (Center of African Spirituality and the cradle of Yoruba Civilization) in search of larger territory and finally about 1180 A.D., King Iji-Emigun led the AYES out of IGBOLE-AYEand founded Efon-Alaaye Kingdom. According to Efon oral Tradition, the Kingdom had 12 sub-towns under the dominion of the Alaye (King) of Efon. Moreover, Efon was a regimented society. Before the advent of the British administration, there was no dichotomy (difference) between administrative and judicial functions in Efon Both functions were rolled together. There was nothing like the separation of power, as we know it today where there are dichotomies between Legislative, the Executive and the Judiciary. The Traditional Council OF Efon performed both functions (Judicial and administration) at the same time and place. The OLORI-EBI or a few elders who happened to be present settled trivial matters in the family usually. More serious cases were referred either to the High Chiefs of the Quarters. In most cases, civil matters were settled out of court by arbitration.

The word “Efon” was synonymous with warmongering, gallantry and fortitude especially in the 19th century during the fratricidal or internecine wars that engulfed the whole of Yorubaland. Efonwas famous in Ekiti and beyond as fierce and warlike. To be precise, Efon was a militarist society in the days gone-by. Before one can be conferred with a chieftaincy title in the days of old, as a rule, he must have displayed an extraordinary bravery, heroism and fortitude in battles. Consequently, within a period of 84 years, from 1797 to 1879, Efon went to war about 14 times. Great War Generals that could hold their own among any contemporary Generals in those days were produced in Efon.
In the ancient times, the people of Efon were renowned throughout Yorubaland and beyond for their remarkable skill in the art of medicine. In addition, the word “Efon” was also tantamount to the vocation of Medicine. In the days gone by, Efon medicine practitioners migrated en-masse to cosmopolitan Yoruba cities like Ibadan and Lagos to ply their trade. One of the notable son of traditional medical practitioner of Efon descent, Sanusi Adebisi Idikan, was an Ibadan-based entrepreneur and a kindhearted philanthropist. Moreover, when the Colonial Government introduced Owo-Ori (Head tax) to Ibadan people, many poor people are unable to pay their tax. Since tax invasion is a criminal offence, many tax defaulters were detained. However, in other to bring relief to the people of Ibadan, Adebisi Idikan went to Mapo Hall and brokered a deal with the Colonial Chief Tax Officer. He voluntered to pay the head tax for all male of taxable age in Ibadan, a city that is said to be the most cosmpolitan city in the whole of black Africa at that time.
