Where Awesome Book Readers Meet Awesome Writers
Intriguing title, eh?
Drama. Comedy. Thriller. Action. Jesus loves them all. And yes, even horror movies. Why? Because movies mean a lot to us. We quote them on the daily and they influence our lives. So, if Jesus loves us, don’t you think that movies would also mean a lot to Him? Isn’t He supposed to be personal?
Cinema is a spiritual sanctuary. It can be a place of healing, a place where you can hear the validating voice of a personal and very present God.
Jesus Loves Movies provides you with thirty films that will draw you into a cinematic experience with the most creative Director. Use this book as a devotional, a guide, or in any way that you desire. May it show you that God is in everything. May it lighten your load and demonstrate to you that He is fun, interesting, and deep. May the pages of this book open your senses to a side of God that the modern day church sometimes struggles to understand.
Written during a season of deep pain, grief, and injustice; analyses of thirty films contained in the pages of Jesus Loves Movies will bring you to a secret movie space. A space where the most Holy One will adorn you with His peace, love, and restoration.
It’s time to sit back and relax, grab some popcorn, watch some movies, and get ready to experience God in a way that you were made to.

Burn For You
Scott and Tori have promised forever to each other.
But for a girl whose life has been full of misfortune—forever is a fantasy word that only exists in fairy tales and fables.
In spite of blow after blow Tori still fights to grab onto her happily ever after with Scott. But as the wedding looms on the horizon, the demons of her past resurface with a vengeance—and this time they’re dragging him down with her.
For Scott, to sacrifice himself for his bride is not even a question. It’s his duty, his honor.
The man goes down; the girl goes free.
That is his mantra. His father ingrained it in him, the military further instilled it in him and his sons will someday live and die by the same creed.
His headstrong woman believes this shouldn’t be his battle to fight, and she’ll go to any length to protect those she loves.
“Till Death Us Do Part” takes on a whole new meaning when both are willing to burn for each other.
Burn For You is part three in Scott and Tori’s epic love story. You can read part one of Scott and Tori’s story in Chasing Fire and part two in Smoke and Mirrors. All novels are full length books featuring a hot-as-hell alpha and a sexy artist who both have filthy mouths. Intended for a mature audience.

Down Below- Reminiscences of a WW2 Engine Room Merchant Navy Seaman- Edward (Ted) Jones Whitehead
About Down Below- Reminiscences of a WW2 Engine Room Merchant Navy Seaman- Edward (Ted) Jones Whitehead
Follow Ted- Edward Jones Whitehead (now 95 yrs) on his perilous adventures during WW2. Starting from his native Wales, UK, the narrative, written with great skill and humour takes the reader across the Atlantic and onward to the Caribbean, S America, N Africa and beyond. From the point of view of an Engine Room Merchant Navy Seaman, his memoirs are an exciting unknown slice of WW2 maritime history.
In 1941 eighteen year old Welshman Ted Whitehead, with no nautical experience, found himself crewing on a Greek freighter, the S/S Lily out of Swansea, Wales. From his native home, Ted started making hazardous, convoy-protected journeys as a steamship engine room seaman on the North Atlantic corridor which was constantly menaced by German U-boats and bad weather. One British shipping official stated that 27% of merchant seaman died through enemy action and the angry ocean. The Lily some months later was torpedoed and sunk in frigid waters – a chilling introduction to the perils of war for a teenager who had to undergo a stay in a Canadian hospital. Revisiting his past, 95 year old Whitehead recounts how ships delivered him to distant harbours where his wartime odyssey was alternately dramatic and amusing, intriguing and reflective, filled with adventures and misfortunes. His voyages included vignettes in both North and South America as well as the shores of the Mediterranean and Africa, sailing on British, Norwegian and Greek coal-burning ships. Through it all Ted was always a solid seaman aboard ship but when chance allowed, he was also a bit of a lad ashore.

Author Bio:
Edward “Ted” Jones Whitehead, now 94, was born in the Rhondda Valley of South Wales in 1923. Orphaned at nine he spent time with older brothers and sisters until he left school at sixteen. While attending secondary school, his English master would give him the day off for superior essay writing – a talent he has maintained throughout his life.
At eighteen after leaving a literally rubbish job in England, Ted found himself at the Swansea sea port in South Wales. There is where his ocean going began during World War II in the dangerous engine rooms down below and his globetrotting journeys lasted for the next forty years. Ships took him to every continent except Antarctica and as a senior his wanderlust has not stopped. Through the years some of his adventures have included the French Foreign Legion and service on the Queen Mary I.
Hello- I’m Ash. I have been spending time in Bangkok Thailand for a number of years. About three years ago I met an old guy called Edward Jones whitehead from Wales, UK, also known as “Taff or Ted” who is now 95 years old. Myself and my wife take care of him here in Bangkok. When I first met him he told me of a book he has written about his life as a merchant seaman. He gave me the manuscript written in type and I took on the job of copying it all on a digital document in the hope of publishing. As soon as I started writing it I could tell he was a very talented writer. Then he told me he had numerous articles published in the West Australian newspaper and The Fremantle Herald where he lived for a number of years. I have recently published his book on Amazon self publishing section and on Kindle. The book is titled “Down Below, Reminincences of a world war 11 merchant seaman.

Civil War Journal of a Union Soldier by Patricia Camburn Zick
About Civil War Journal of a Union Soldier by Patricia Camburn Zick
War from the Soldier’s View
Young men forced to kill their own countrymen
Harmon Camburn signed up for duty as a Union soldier two weeks after the first shots were fired in the Civil War. He served for the next three years, fighting in both Battles of Bull Run and other skirmishes of the War Between the States. His tour of duty ended with a shot through his lung and capture by Confederate soldiers. Fortunately, he survived his wounds and wrote about his time in the Union army. His great granddaughter, P.C. Zick, presents this journal along with additional annotations about the war in general. The journal weaves a tragic and compelling tapestry of war from the view at its center. Mr. Camburn’s sardonic and realistic view of war is worth remembering.
From the day of his enlistment in the Army in April 1861 in Adrian, Michigan, to his final days in the service of the army near Knoxville, Tennessee, the journal provides insight into the minutiae of a soldier’s life, from what they ate to the somewhat unorthodox method of obtaining food. It shows the horror of the battlefield to the joys of simply having the sun shine after days of rain.
Here is a personal account of war and all its sundry causes and effects from the eyes of a man who fought it.

Author Bio:
Bestselling author P.C. Zick describes herself as a storyteller no matter what she writes. And she writes in a variety of genres, including romance, contemporary fiction, and creative nonfiction. She’s won various awards for her essays, columns, editorials, articles, and fiction.
The three novels in her Florida Fiction Series contain stories of Florida and its people and environment, which she credits as giving her a rich base for her storytelling. She says her, “Florida’s quirky and abundant wildlife–both human and animal–supply my fiction with tales almost too weird to be believable.”
P.C. writes both sweet and steamy romances. The sweet contemporary romances in her Smoky Mountain Romances, are set in southwest North Carolina. Another sweet romance series, Rivals in Love, contains two books with four more in the works. All six follow the Crandall family of Chicago as the siblings find love despite their focus on successful careers.
Her steamy romances go from Florida to Long Island. The Behind the Love series, set in a small fictional town in Florida, feature a community of people who form bonds as they learn to overcome the challenges of their youth. Her Montauk Romances are set in and around Long Island and feature simple, yet sophisticated beach houses designed with romance in mind. The two books in this set are filled with steamy scenes as love grows and thrives.
No matter the genre of novel, they all contain elements of romance with strong female characters, handsome heroes, and descriptive settings. She believes in living lightly upon this earth with love, laughter, and passion, and through her fiction, she imparts this philosophy in an entertaining manner with an obvious love for her characters, plot, and themes.

The Guitarist
An intimate, powerful, and inspiring story of love in all its forms
Every so often a love story comes along that kindles our hearts to want to love that special someone much more than we already do. The Guitarist is such a book. It’s a celebration of love in all its forms, a tale that makes us all believe that this thing we call love is multi-dimensional. Lu is an upcoming Guitarist and composer that performs with a local group called G4 at various nightclubs. Though he possessed tremendous talent as a composer, he was yet to write his first song. The basement was he haven; an escape from the outside world where his creative juices could be blended into sultry sounds. Yet, every time Lu experienced a creative block he would divert to write lyrical pieces in his diary, a practice that captured his heart even more so than composing music.
Lu is torn between remaining as a member of the group as he realizes that his newfound talent might be what defines his calling. With summer a few weeks away and his wife rearranging the house’s décor, it would be wise for Lu to keep his guitar and other accompaniments out of her way. As Mary relocates items that do not fit into her décor to the basement she encounters Lu’s personal diary. It should remain personal but not this one, as she takes a sneak peek to see what he’s been up to. What she discovers is a collection of lyrical pieces (not songs) strung together as one story that detail in its purest form both the ugly and beautiful sides in the pursuit of love.

He did however, email poorly structured rants to an email list for longer than was appropriate. Brett also authored a nearly yearlong menagerie of stream of consciousness buffoonery loosely based on dating in your 30’s. This was until he knocked a woman up twice, which essentially sent him on a path of scrambling to keep a bunch of other humans alive. In his triumphant return to throwing ink down on tree flesh, Brett has scribbled out his memoirs, at first as a means to give the offspring something to remember him by. Not content with only punishing them with this written slideshow, he is now attempting to pummel the masses with it.

Power by Bella Jay
What if Aladdin was an above average thief in the hood, Princess Jasmine was the daughter of a crime boss, and Jafar was still the snake he always was? Welcome to Power.
For The Sultan Empire (TSE) nothing is more important than being and staying on top. The business and family come first.
Jolee Cullen was instilled this all her life and though she accepted it, all she wanted at her age was a chance at a regular life. But as the daughter of crime boss – Samuel Cullen -, and the heir to his throne, a regular life is never something she’d have. She was born with all the power she could want… but she wanted freedom. And once she meets Amare, she’ll have to decide between him and her empire.
Amare Thomas, a skilled thief, has spent the better part of his life trying to stay afloat for himself and his younger brother. When the consequences of a bad decision lands him on TSE’s payroll, he has no idea of the turn his life will take. Or that he’ll fall for his boss’ off limits daughter. For Amare having power is the furthest thing from his mind until he gets a taste.
Jareem Blackwood, the current right-hand man to Samuel, wants what he believes he deserves, and that’s to be Samuel’s successor. Jareem already has it all, but he doesn’t think he has enough. His pockets are deep but sometimes it’s not about the money, loyalty, or respect. It’s about the power. To him, you can never have enough and nothing or no one was going to stop him from getting the throne.
An Urban Fairytale Series is a series of standalone fairytale retellings and each book can be read as its own entity. Power, the second book in the series, is inspired by the classic fairytale, Aladdin.

Falling by Firelight: A Christmas Romance by Rose Ivory
About Falling by Firelight: A Christmas Romance by Rose Ivory
There’s nothing in the world that Kate Green loves more than Christmas. The baking, the music, the drinking too much wine with friends and family in the name of cheer, all of it. Even though she’s been single for the past three years, at Christmas, she’s never felt alone.
But when all flights are grounded on Christmas Eve, Kate finds herself trapped in Seattle. With her family celebrating back east, she resolves to spend the holiday in blissful, relaxing solitude. A consolation celebration that might have worked…if not for the power outage.
In the blackout, Kate finds herself shacked up with Nolan, her new a-hole neighbor with a tendency to make her skin crawl. Or, more often, tingle. With his condescending tone, tall brawny build, and sharp jaw so often clenched in disdain, he should be the last person with whom she’d want to ride out a blizzard.
He should be. But when his molten gaze begins to thaw a part of Kate that she hasn’t felt in years, awakening a passion she’d pushed down to cope with the pain, she realizes that she might not mind being trapped. That being stuck just might bring her everything she’s been too scared to seize.

Finders Weepers: The Benandanti Book One
About Finders Weepers: The Benandanti Book One
My name is Tazlyn Hunt. I’m a Finder. It’s what I do.
I have the somewhat mysterious ability to sometimes link with missing people. Linking can make Finding much easier. Easier on the body, on the mind, on the paws. Oh yeah, I’m a Benandanti werewolf too.
I make it a rule to never take on dark cases. For one thing, clients don’t seem to feel obligated to pay if you find their loved ones no longer among the living. For another… well it’s just plain gross.
I’d like to say I made an exception in the case of little Jimmy Riley because I had a sixth sense that this job would literally change my life. But the truth is my Jeep needed new tires.
Now I’m trying to track down a serial killer, elude a Luparii were-hunting assassin, and mentor a new teenage shifter. All in a day’s work, right?

Adam Mann (which is a pen name) has worked for over 50 years in what is called “developing economies”. Most of the time his work has been with the thousands of small scale farmers living in remote areas, who have appreciated sustainable livelihoods, so that they now have enough food to feed themselves, and also some produce to sell so that they have a cash income. That is why most of Adam’s novels are set in these remote rural locations in Africa and for the last twenty five years in Asia.
Although Adam started writing over 20 years ago in 1996, it was not until four years ago that Adam finally retired and started writing and has now produced 38 fantasy romance books, ten of which have been published by eXtasy, Phaze Books and Global Publishing and the others self-published at Smashwords and Amazon KDP.
Shadows Within by Khidra Kay
About Shadows Within by Khidra Kay
Shadows Within (Chronicles of the Allmothers, book 1) will be available for free on November 20th 2018.
Magic is outlawed in Berender. The Church of Asier ensures no one can use it with the help of blocking tattoos. But healers and entertainers have ways of introducing magic among the nobles.
Adara is pulled from her secluded life in the countryside when her uncle becomes King. She never got her blocking tattoo, and never thought it would be necessary. Innate magic is nonexistent in Berender and only a few are born with special powers.
As a child she dreamed of magic, then she was forced to grow up. Now, it seems she can dream again. Dream of a life where she is strong, where her lungs won’t turn to stone and she won’t experience the nausea that rises as she gets her attacks and floats outside her body.
She wants power. Power to overcome her anxiety and protect her family. Magic might be her only option.
Ishana left the love of her life for the Gods. Asier came to her and told her she was needed to fight for her faith, to make sure the church prevailed. The night she walked out on her girlfriend a fog descended on her mind, sheltering her from the raw emotions. But now, Maresa is back in her life and the fog starts to dissipate.
Meanwhile, her brother Emil is determined to marry Adara, for the good of the country. But is she as docile as they thought? And is Emil loyal to Ishana and the church?

I am Khidra Kay. I am a writer of epic fantasy.
My TBR pile is way too large and I watch too much Netflix. I have two cats and enjoy crocheting and playing video games (open world adventure/building mostly, you know the time-consuming ones…).
I think the first time I immersed myself in a new world it was the American South. I was about eleven years old and fascinated with Scarlet O’Hara and her world in Gone with the Wind. Jane Austen invited me to England. Alexander Dumas took me to France. Terry Pratchett made me part of the Discworld and, of course, I have traveled in the mind of J. K. Rowling, Robert Jordan, and George R.R. Martin.
And I loved every world I went to, every hero and heroine, every plot twist and love interest, ancient artifact and courageous side character.
But to me, all these worlds had one flaw. They ended too soon. Every closed book felt like a lost world.
My solution? Create a world of my own. A world I can fill with magic and heroes, with villains and gods, with artifacts, myths, and legends. Where I can dive into its entire existence, from before the creation until its demise and rebirth. A world that can live in the space that is my mind and yours. Where I give a blueprint and your imagination supplies the lifeforce.

Bible Verses Addiction: Cause and Effect
About Bible Verses Addiction: Cause and Effect
Bible Verses Addictions is a series of volumes that address addictions from a biblical perspective. The series is made of two primary issues concerning addictions. The volumes on the problem of addictions is divided into the cause of addictions and the effect of addiction. The volumes on the solution to addictions is divided into the process of addressing addictions and the result of the process. Bible Verses Addictions is complimentary to the author’s book “Turning to God from Idols: A Biblical Approach to Addictions. Within both writings, addictions are exposed as something that we allow to take God’s place and give them the honor and dominance that God alone is worthy of. You will also find that both writings present a healthy relationship with Jesus Christ as the means of disposing of every addiction as the method which is most pleasing to God as well as towards our greatest advantage.

Principles of The Kingdom: God’s Success Principles
About Principles of The Kingdom: God’s Success Principles
It is this author’s contention that God has several principles, which if followed can lead to success either in business or in life itself. He further contends that although many of these same principles may be found among the motivational speakers and thinkers of today and yesterday, that they were originally derived from Holy Scripture, whether or not these spokespersons are aware of it. He points to Jesus’ parables to show that not everyone who preaches or practices Kingdom principles will be found to be in the Kingdom at the end. The 17 chapters of this book contain 17 articles relating to 17 of these principles, from “forgetting the past” and “conquering fear” to “resting,” with quotable quotes from famous people past and present and illustrations from the author’s novel, Of Such Is The Kingdom, A Novel of Biblical Times

Author Bio:
I, James M. Becher, was Born on June 8, 1943 of a Christian family and accepted Christ at an early age Interested in writing and drama since High School, I graduated from Grace L. Hill Memorial Christian School, where I participated in several plays and got A’s in English Grammar, and wrote several short stories, poems and articles, usually incorporating my faith into my writings. While attending St. Petersburg Jr. College, in St. Petersburg, FL, I won second prize in a writing contest with a Biblical short story, called “Beggarman-Thief,” which forms part of my first novel. I attended Bob Jones University, in Greenville, S.C., and then Clearwater Christian College, graduating with a B.A. in Bible-lit, going on to Biblical School of Theology (now Biblical Seminary) in Hatfield, Pennsylvania and graduating in 1974 with an M.Div. Ordained in November of 1974, I served in different areas of Ministry, one of which was a foreign student ministry, which is where he met his dear wife, Berenice from Venezuela, and which is also where I started writing my first two novels.
Berenice and I were married in 1980 in St. Petersburg, FL. In 1989, we went to Venezuela for an extended stay, where, along with teaching English to the Shell American Oil Company’s employees, at the same time I completed my purposeful time travel novel, Impossible Journey, A Tale of times and Truth, using a friend’s computer. Upon returning to the US, I also completed my Biblical novel (a historical fictionl novel of the time of Christ), “Of Such Is The Kingdom,” which I had started before we left, and of which the short story, “Beggarman-Thief” is a part. It was published by PublishAmerica in 2003.
Also shortly after returning to the U.S., I began publishing my self-help ezine, “Inspirational Success Tips,” my articles from which now form my self-help book “Principles of the Kingdom.”
Later, I revised the sci-fi novel, Impossible Journey, A Tale of Times and Truth, and it was published in January of 2005.
In 2007, I revised and expanded the Biblical novel, OF SUCH IS THE KINGDOM, A Novel of Biblical Times, adding PART III about the early church.
I also completed a short self-help book (or booklet–roughly 18,000 words) based on my articles from my ezine with quotable quotes for each chapter. It’s titled Principles of the Kingdom (God’s success principles) and was published in 2012
In November, 2013, I preached my “Christmas Victory” message, based on an insight on Isaiah 7:14, which the LORD had shown me in seminary. I also gave a history of the writing of “I Heard the Bells on christmas Day.” This resulted in the writing of my latest novel, The Christmas Victory, A Gem of A Sermon, All Wrapped Up in a Historical Novel, which was published in July of 2014.
This year (2018) I have been further revising and updating all my books. I completely re-designed the cover to Impossible Journey, making it more relevant to the content, I made Of Such Is The Kingdom into 4 volumes, thus giving buyers a choice of getting all 3 parts at once or starting with PART I and getting the other 2 parts later. I also added a full-color Gift Edition to “The Christmas Victory,” thus giving buyers a Christmas gift option (to buy as a gift for someone else or even as a gift for themselves),

Contact, Three True Encounters by M.G. Hawking, A. Chellings, H. Cantrell
About Contact, Three True Encounters by M.G. Hawking, A. Chellings, H. Cantrell
Free for Kindle 11/15 – 11/16/18. While in a remote region of the Himalayas, explorer M.G. Hawking and his companions experience three encounters with individuals they believe to be the true “star beings” of ancient legends. Explore these extraordinary encounters and the profound knowledge they reveal.
The creation stories of cultures worldwide relate that their progenitors came from the stars or the heavens. Ancient Egyptian texts speak of their “bringers of knowledge” coming from Orion and Sirius. Native Americans recount that their antecedents were the “Sky People” or “Star People.” Throughout South America there exists a richly analogous storehouse of legends describing the arrival of “Star Beings.”
The builders of Teotihuacan describe their gods as having descended from the heavens. The pre-Tibetan culture, the Mayan, the pre-Incan, the Sumerian, and so many others, all express the same story in diverse symbolic languages—their “gods” came from the stars, bringing advanced knowledge and the gift of civilization. Many of these cultures were greatly separated both geographically and chronologically, yet their creation stories are strikingly similar and, in some cases, essentially identical.
The prehistoric Brahmaic and Egyptian traditions relate that their mysterious “gods” arrived in a “cosmic egg” radiating brilliant light, circa 18,000 B.C. The B’on theogony of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau’s ancient Zhang Zhung culture relates that their “king of the gods” arrived from the emptiness of space in a “resplendent jeweled egg” of “lha of bright light,” at which time “in the sky there appeared dazzling lights, melodious sounds in space, and many other wonderful occurrences.”
Are these ubiquitous traditions merely myths? Are they simply embellished legends passed down through generations beyond count? Or are they representative of some vaguely remembered and carefully preserved reality? Absent an ember, there can be no smoke; there is a kernel of truth in all such enduring creation stories and they cannot be easily, or wisely, dismissed.
“We are not alone in the universe. When I learned that aliens really do exist, I wasn’t too surprised. They have been coming here for a long time. But what did shock me is the extent to which the proof has been hushed up” —Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Ph.D., Apollo 14 Astronaut (the sixth person to walk on the moon), recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom
Data from the Kepler Space Observatory indicates that our galaxy is home to some 40 billion “earth-like” planets. The Milky Way is one of an estimated two trillion galaxies in our Universe, making an approximation of the number of “terrestrial” planets in the cosmos to be roughly 80 sextillion. This suggests that the number of terrestrial planets in our Universe is sixteen times greater than the sum of all the grains of sand on all the beaches on Earth combined (JPL/Caltech, 2016). “I believe alien life is quite common in the universe.” —Stephen Hawking
Transcribed from the field notes of Hawking’s sixty-two months in the Himalayas, this book contains detailed narratives of the experiences he and his companions had with the actual Ri-iha-mo, the legendary Himalayan “mountain celestials.” During their encounters, the Ri-iha-mo disclosed profound revelations about our Universe, our history, and our true nature, knowledge that can greatly assist in understanding ourselves, our world, and our role and power in creating precisely the life we desire.
An incomparable book for anyone interested in greatly expanding their knowledge and personal power, and deeply rewarding for those fascinated with the endless ancient accounts of extraterrestrial influences. 2018 Edition, Kindle e-reader page count 295 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device used).

Fragile
FREE eBook From November 16 – 18, 2018
Never give up on your dreams, never believe all that you’re told, and never give up the fight. When you go from believing you’re not capable to discovering that you are, and proving it, that makes it even more incredible and gives you a great feeling of satisfaction. Premature Ovarian failure and living with a disability like Fragile X doesn’t have to restrict your life or make it bleak, it just means you have to do certain things a little differently. Being different isn’t bad, either – it’s what makes us unique, and having a child with Fragile X is definitely that.
Always look for the positive, no matter how dark situations get or how challenging they become. We are a lot stronger than we think and the body can overcome things that we never thought possible.
Hope and faith got us where we are today, and more to the point, where my daughter is. I couldn’t be more thankful and I truly believe that if you want something badly enough, it will happen.

About Influence People: How to make Friends
Do you think that it’s completely by chance that some people seem to have more influence over others than you do? Perhaps you noticed back at school how the rich kids seemed to have more friends than you had. Perhaps the cool kids at college gained more recognition than you did. You may even have gone into adulthood not really appreciating what it takes to make friends and make friendships that last but, to a certain degree, what comes into play here is psychological techniques. Some people are better at playing the psychological game than others.

I was inspired to write this book after getting my own weight loss results from meal prep. The results from this practice have been so rewarding I wanted to share these tips and tricks with others. I have always had trouble losing weight and eating healthy but once I got a hold on meal prep, the weight just started coming off. I am now more energetic and physically active than I have ever been before. Now that I am a few pounds lighter, I have stepped out of my comfort zone and tried something that I have always been scared to try due to my weight, kickboxing. I feel so amazing and I hope this book will help you feel the same way I do!
Thanks for being awesome and supporting the authors.
