Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents -
About Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents:

Six-time award-winning book!

Minneapolis Star-Tribune top-10 “green” book!

Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents follows Marty and Deb Essen on a three-and-a-half-year-long adventure to some of the wildest places on all seven continents.

The American couple began crisscrossing the globe with the simple intention of searching for rare and interesting wildlife. When their travels coincided with the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the added element made them unwitting ambassadors for peace. Their experiences–from amusing to life threatening–changed their lives forever.

This is not your average travelogue. Marty Essen has written a book that entertains, informs, and poignantly reminds us that we all share a small planet.

Locations visited include: Belize, Peru (the Amazon Rainforest), Argentina, Australia (Queensland), Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, Yukon Territory, and Northwest Territories), Antarctica, Europe (Spain, France, Switzerland, and Andorra), Malaysia (Borneo), and Africa (Zimbabwe).

Author Bio:
Born in Duluth, Minnesota, Marty Essen developed a love of animals at an early age. When he was eight years old, his first “pet,” a black widow spider, gave birth to hundreds of babies, which promptly crawled onto his hands when he opened the jar to feed them. He prudently traded his spiders for a horned toad.

Marty’s dream of an animal-oriented career became sidetracked at the age of 13, when he volunteered to answer request lines at a radio station. That position led to a job as a radio announcer, which in turn led him to become the owner of a Minneapolis-based talent management agency.

In 1990, Gig Magazine contracted Marty for his first professional writing work–a series of feature articles on the music business.

Eventually Marty moved to Montana to launch an independent local telephone company. In 2001, while being interviewed for a story about his telephone company, Marty mentioned to the reporter that he was heading to the Amazon rainforest. The reporter invited him to write a story about his adventures.

Marty’s Amazon story ran as a feature article in two Montana newspapers. The Amazon story, and a second story about a trip to Australia, were so well received that he decided to expand his travels to all seven continents.

While traveling the world, in search of rare and interesting wildlife, Marty was stung by one of the world’s most venomous insects, bitten by a poisonous snake, surrounded by wolves, attacked by a hippo–and had the time of his life. He chronicled his unique adventures in his first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents.

Cool Creatures, Hot Planet won three first-place awards for travel/essay writing: the 2007 Benjamin Franklin Award, the 2007 National Indie Excellence Book Award, and the Best Books 2006 Book Award. It also won bronze metals in the ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Awards and the IPPY Awards. Additionally, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet won first place in the Animals category at the 2009 Green Book Festival in Los Angeles, and the Minneapolis Star-Tribune named it a Top-10 Green Book.

In late 2007, Marty Essen began presenting Around the World in 90 Minutes at colleges, museums, and nature centers across the United States. Based on his book, Marty’s high-energy multi-media show takes audiences on an unforgettable worldwide adventure, packed with rare and interesting wildlife. It’s the type of show where the audience has fun laughing at the stories, oohing and aahing at the photos, and then, when it’s all done, they realize just how much they’ve learned.

In November 2008, Marty Essen became APCA’s (the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities) #1 Booked College Speaker, and since then he has spent a total of 46 months at the #1 position. In 2011, Campus Activities Magazine named Marty a “Hot Speaker” pick for 2011. Currently, Around the World in 90 Minutes is the 2nd most-popular slide-show of all-time (behind Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth”), a position it will likely hold for years to come!

Gothic Baroque: A Visionary Journey of Love, Lust, Rebellion and Social Unrest -
About Gothic Baroque: A Visionary Journey of Love, Lust, Rebellion and Social Unrest:

‘Gothic Baroque’ ranges from love and lust, rebellion and social unrest, spiritual and personal growth in a visionary journey and metaphysical form. Please leave a small review if you enjoy the work.

Ultimately I wanted this collection to be a ‘journal’ theme that explores the personal evolution of a person going through the tough experiences associated with life’s unfolding journey, the chaos of personal psycho-sexual self-discovery and the accompanying self-imposed social repression, but holding on to the belief that there will be progress along the way.

Each verse explores further life lessons being experienced and recorded. Like most journeys you have to stick with it to the end; there are dark parts, amusement, observation, self-doubt, love, positive affirmation and warmth. Also death is used as a metaphor for change and self improvement, this is a more darker with a sense of hope feel.

My writing style is such that I attempt to convey ideas and the plethora of emotions I experience in a way that remains personal, but is also accessible to the reader through the use of metaphor and visual imagery.

Author Bio:
I am a visionary poet detailing life’s existential angst, philosophies and momentary bliss. Being a self-claimed people watcher I am interested in the study of the human nature and cultures, and I set out to detail my life’s musings and experience.

I write about passion, politics, emotions and the human nature, at all extremes. While I chronicle this through my own experience I like to play with metaphor and imagery to showcase this to the reader, sometimes without being so obvious as to what I am going through, but instilling thoughts, imagery and emotions in a way I hope to connect to others. I am deeply passionate about my work and more importantly creating works that connect and resonate with others. I have a strong sense of ethics, morals and political views which you will find in each poetry volume.

About The Succubus: Sins of the Flesh:

Dressed in strange clothing and covered in tattoos and piercings, Raven DuBois appears to be just another goth college student rebelling through her unusual, dark style.

But he soon finds there is much more to her than meets the eye. After getting a taste of what Raven has to offer, Darrin can’t get enough. He soon falls deep under her spell and will do anything she asks of him, without questioning. He finds himself a pawn in her wicked game; a game in which he stands to lose more than he ever imagined – including his soul.

Elizabeth McKenna works as a full-time technical writer/editor for a large software company. Though her love of books reaches back to her childhood, she had never read romance novels until one Christmas when her sister gave her the latest bestseller by Nora Roberts. She was hooked from page one (actually, she admits it was the first love scene). She had always wanted to write fiction, so she combined her love of history, romance and a happy ending to write her debut novel Cera’s Place. Her short story, The Gypsy Casts a Spell, is available for free on her website http://elizabethmckenna.com/. She hopes you will enjoy her latest novel, Venice in the Moonlight, as much as others have enjoyed her previous works.

Elizabeth lives in Wisconsin with her understanding husband, two beautiful daughters, and a sassy Labrador. When she isn’t writing, working, or being a mom, she’s sleeping.

Outlawed Hope by Na’ama Yehuda -
About Outlawed Hope by Na’ama Yehuda:

Abandoned as an infant, adopted, and then forgotten until seventeen, Aimee was raised for an unknown future. Outlawed Hope is her story, the story of the Outlaws who birthed her, the Society that raised her, and the infant she finds. Aimee needs to save the infant from a future she knows too well. Through dangerous close calls, Aimee discovers that she isn’t who she thought she was, and nor are those around her. Why was she abandoned? Who found her? For the truth, Aimee must face stunning revelations. She is trained to comply, but cannot—it would doom her and the baby she struggles to protect. Can she find another way, and at what cost? Outlawed Hope is a story of loss, unexpected empathy, brutality, and heartfelt resilience.

“A story of escape and capture, the power of hope, and the heroics necessary to ensure a child’s future.” Meredith Blevins, The Hummingbird Wizard (The Mystic Café)

“Reminiscent of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, Outlawed Hope is a compelling, fast-paced novel set in a less-than-utopian society. We feel the race of Aimee’s pulse as we follow the twists and turns of her journey, meeting various characters who help, hinder, sabotage, and heal both her past and future. In this first novel by Na’ama Yehuda, change is given the ride of its life and hope is anything but outlawed.” Adele Ryan McDowell, Author of Amazon Bestseller Balancing Act: Reflections, meditations and Coping Strategies for Today’s Fact Paced Whirl

Author Bio:
I was born and raised in Israel, lived briefly in Africa as a child, and currently reside in New York City. I’m a Speech Language Pathologist and Audiologist and have been working with children of all ages for almost 25 years. I work in both Hebrew and English, which can make for interesting switches from session to session, depending on the child I work with and the language they need help with. I worked in Israel before I moved to New York, and I hold licenses for both places, which is helpful. Aside from my clinical work with the munchkins, I teach internationally to child professionals, present in conferences, edit a periodical professional publication and publish a column in it, contribute columns in other publications, volunteer in several committees … and try to get a few more hours in the day to fit it all in. I am blessed to do what I love and I thoroughly enjoy all of it.

I often believe that my young clients teach me more than I teach them. Many of them had been through developmental trauma, chronic pain, premature birth, adoption, or other complicated issues that make for very difficult beginnings. The children’s spirit humbles me.

I am the fifth of seven girls and have an amazing–and very large–family. Though we don’t all live nearby, my family supplies me with a never ending stream of personalities, anecdotes, funnies, lovelies, cuties, and the whole spectrum of maddening and awe-inspiring stuff families can bring up.

OUTLAWED HOPE is my first novel and I am ridiculously pleased to have published it. I’m delighted with the reviews, and grateful for the opportunity to share my work. I’ve published articles in peer-review journals before, as well as columns in professional newsletters, and a chapter in one of the leading books about childhood trauma and dissociation in recent years. I am also currently at work on a professional book for Routledge Publishers, and on a requested chapter to yet another professional book. I’m not new to writing. However, OUTLAWED HOPE and fiction writing is a whole other adventure. I love, love, LOVE it.

In addition to the non-fiction projects I am involved with right now, I am knee deep in writing yet another novel, and in the sequel to OUTLAWED HOPE.

In addition to my love affair with books and writing, I also love goats, life, beaches, friends, good food, good laughs, and good conversations.

Black & White by Erol Rashit -
About Black & White by Erol Rashit:

A young man, Igor, adopts as his mother a middle aged woman, Sylvia, after meeting her in a café, each having come from the nearby cemetery. In taking it upon himself to investigate the death of Sylvia’s son, Igor soon finds himself confronting racists. Sylvia is black; Igor is white. The deeper he delves, the more intricately embroiled he becomes and the more he becomes the focus of a police investigation himself.

Extremes acquire their significance by being in juxtaposition with their opposites. Within the field of human activity, notions of ‘good and bad’ and ‘pleasure and pain’ are perhaps bound to prevail, but the essence of existence must precede such differentiation. The presence of suffering in the world should not be taken as proof that the world cannot be perfect. Happiness does not result from the elimination of suffering; rather, happiness may ensue when the realm of pleasure and pain has been transcended.

The division between the realm of opposites and That which lies beyond all opposites is the most fundamental duality of them all – and the greatest of mysteries.

I’m a Christ Follower and a Texan to the core. I own two types of shoes; flip-flops and cowboy boots.

I have a Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Texas at Arlington where I studied Film and Television Production. Like everyone in my line of work I’ve written a few screenplays. One earned some awards but none ended up on screen.

Pirates or Patriots evolved from a conversation I had with an elderly uncle about how my family came to America. That discussion led me to begin reading as many accounts of the events leading up to the Battle of New Orleans as I could find. One version claimed that an English teenager introduced Lafitte and Jackson at the corner of Royal and Canal Streets. That account somewhat coincided with my uncle’s Now, I do not want to imply that some relation of mine had anything to do with Jean Lafitte, but I couldn’t help but wonder how a British teenager could have found himself standing on a New Orleans street corner with Jean Lafitte and Andrew Jackson. Thus, Pirates or Patriots.

When she is assaulted by a beloved local hero, people are quick to take sides. The press paints her as a golddigging liar. She receives death threats and loses her job. Just when she wants to give up, billionaire Drake Powell swoops in to pick up the pieces, refusing to let her go down without a fight. With his love, his stubborn commands that she rejoin the land of the living and the sensual, amazing things he does to her body daily, she finds the will to stop being a victim and become a survivor.

Soon, Happye is caught up in a much bigger conspiracy than she thought. With the help of five other women whose lives were also touched by the same corrupted hand, she learns she is much more of a fighter than she thought she was. The women risk their lives to find justice not only for themselves but other women in the same situations.

Drake Powell has wanted Happye since the first time he laid eyes on her. He has loved her from the moment she first smiled at him. When she becomes broken, he knows he has it in him to fix her. But does he have the strength to keep her alive when she, and her new crazy friends, go up against a killer?

The Clique of Misfits is a new series about six women who forge an unbreakable friendship out of tragedy.

About Runaway Girlfriend:

Everybody loves Rain Austin. What was not to love? She was beautiful, successful, and funny with a big heart. She just had one major flaw: She was a serious commitment-phobe. She was happy having a man in her life, when she wanted a man in her life. She was far too busy running her staffing company to settle down. If only she could convince her friends and family that her choices were right for her. So what if she dumped a man at the first sight of him catching feelings? But when she meets Blake Collins in a client meeting, she starts to think maybe she was missing out on something after all.

Blake Collins was under a lot of pressure at work. When he contracted a staffing company to help him out, he met Rain Austin. Holy Crap! Who could think about work when a green eyed goddess was sitting across from him? This could get interesting.

The Way: Genesis by John Whelan-Curtin -
About The Way: Genesis by John Whelan-Curtin:

What would you do if you discovered you had been alive before, thousands of years ago? What if you discovered that there were hundreds, maybe thousands, of others that are constantly dying only to be reborn, the oldest stretching back to the dawn of time? What if the difference between you and them was that you couldn’t remember your previous lives? What if they wanted you for something, something sinister, and you did not know what?

Welcome to Gray’s life. He is a teenage boy with mysterious powers and no knowledge of his past. All Gray knows is that his brother was murdered by thugs that made the killing look like a vampire attack. Gray knows vampires aren’t real but he can’t give up on the hunt for the murderers.

Four factions seek to control Gray, to use him to find a powerful treasure that has been lost since the stone age. The Pack, the Agency, the Cult and the Ark will all fight to have Gray. He slipped through their hands before, in a previous life. But they’ve waited 40,000 years for this. He won’t slip through their fingers again.

“Whelan-Curtin has a gift for imagery. When reading, the reader feels like they can visualize the characters and are right there experiencing what the characters are experiencing…Definitely a break from the mainstream” – bookstoreroom.com

Typewriter from Hell by Diane Cox -
About Typewriter from Hell by Diane Cox:

Unemployed dumpy librarian Ellen Brinson is desperate for money so she sends off a partial manuscript to well-known agent Henry Morgan. Henry, whose lifestyle is expensive, is also desperate for cash and he thinks he has a big winner.

Ellen meets a man who offers her the opportunity for a good job and her interest in the novel wanes. However, she can’t seem to stop writing as her old black Corona takes charge at unexpected times. As she grows more confident, Ellen’s appearance seems to morph along with her manuscript and she becomes increasingly sleek and sexy.

The two clash when Henry has interested a publisher in the book but Ellen decides she’d rather have a boyfriend than a novel.

Things spiral out of control and the ending never fails to surprise the reader. Reviewers have called it spicy, fast paced and fun.

Manor of Corruption -
About Manor of Corruption:

In Manor of Corruption, an unaccomplished writer lands the envious position of biographer for a well-known and feared crime boss, and is drawn deep into the criminal mastermind’s world; an unforgiving adventure that simultaneously entices and repels him, that makes him question everything he ever believed, and that threatens the stability of a middle-class family, and their impressionable high-school age son, Joshua. When he was twelve years old, the crime lord began receiving letters full of advice on how to be fantastically successful and rich. The letters made him two promises: first, that if the young man followed his advice, he would be wealthy and powerful beyond his imagination, and, secondly, that on his 30th birthday the elusive author would come to end his life. Into his later years, the mobster hires a young writer to pen his memoir, but the writer struggles to put all the pieces together. In a twisted tale that winds through the corrupted mind of his patron and turns on its head the young biographer’s entire understanding, this venture into a darker world redefines everything he ever knew of life, reason, and crime. Throwing into the mix an idealistic high school literature teacher, a suburban couple and their son who get charmed and betrayed by their good-looking–but duplicitous–new neighbor, this is a story of loyalty and family, of truth and deception, and of love and corruption that will have you asking right up until the very end: “What do I really believe?”

Beneath the surface, this book has a philosophical message. I like to chuckle to myself when I call it a “philosophical thriller.” Oxymoron?
The book, at its deepest, is a discussion about the role of reason in the world and in our lives. It is this absolute standard that we measure so much against, and yet it is so subjective, and malleable. Because of this, it is a prime tool for corruption; it holds the weight of “truth,” or “objectivity,” and yet it is so easily manipulated.

I have also long been a writer of fiction, but this is my first novel (or novella). I got the inspiration for the story after watching the horror movie “Saw.” I suppose I just really like the idea of an intelligent villain.

I am a Marine Corps veteran (it was in Iraq, in 2007, when the idea for this book landed in my head and kept me up nights). I also a devout Catholic, and attended St. Mary’s Seminary for two years while I discerned the possibility of life as a priest.

I love playing all kinds of sports, but soccer and basketball are my favorite. I study the Filipino martial art of Kali, and enjoy collecting weapons.

When she finds her dog’s mutilated body and realizes she’s to blame, she starts to think maybe the zombie apocalypse they’ve been screaming about on the news isn’t a hoax after all. Worse, she begins to think maybe she’s one of the infected.

Now it’s a fight for life as she joins together with her brethren to stop the humans intent on destroying them. Are zombies all bad, or is it just a huge misunderstanding?

Author Bio:
Jo Michaels is a writer who’s really had a taste of life. She’s lived in Louisiana, Tennessee, and Georgia; but visited states from coast to coast. Michaels, a high-school dropout, put herself through college while her husband was deployed to Iraq and still managed to come out on the other side with all five of her children still breathing. On top of that wondrous feat, she managed to graduate Summa Cum Laude. After her fourteen year marriage ended cataclysmically, she took to the keys to fulfill her dream of becoming a writer. Using the degree she obtained in school, Jo set out with tools in her belt not many writers possess: a strong design eye, the skills necessary to format her books, and the ability to use her artistic talents to create stunning covers.

Now, Michaels writes full-time in her garage while imbibing copious amounts of coffee to keep her motor running from son up to son down (and daughter, too). Her inspiration for her books comes from relationships, life, friends, passion, and her own incredible imagination. A fight for achieving her dream (along with her super duper boyfriend) is what drags her out of bed every morning to do what she does best: spin tales laced with high-octane emotion for readers worldwide.

Jo has written many books, all of which are self-published.

Deities and Desires by Ruth Ford Elward -
About Deities and Desires by Ruth Ford Elward:

For as long as there has been Man there has been Zeus and his Olympic gods. They have ruled with fire and might and justice. But times have changed and mortals want their gods to change with it. A new breed of gods, the New Titans, have started their rise to power and are set to take the Olympians’ place. But what if there had been another god, an all-powerful god that was in complete control, even over the Olympians and New Titans?

Xenodiosism is an old, almost forgotten religion based on the belief that there is but one single, all-powerful god, Xenodios. With a growing doubt as to whether or not the New Titans would rule as well as the Olympians had, many of humanity begin to turn their faith back toward Xenodiosism.

Hector Sole and the woman in his life, Aegila Hart, have experienced the wrath of the Olympians first hand and are leery of the New Titans. Hector’s disenchantment with his Olympic gods and disbelief in the New Titans moves him towards Aegila’s faith in the old singular god. He with Aegila’s help spread the word of Xenodios to as much of humanity as they can reach, finding themselves in the middle of a battle. A battle for humanity. Do they hold some hidden key that will turn the tide one way or another?

Bittersweet Ending by Ruth Ford Elward -
About Bittersweet Ending by Ruth Ford Elward:

Part 1 – The Rescue

Raven and the Guardsmen are trapped in the Vale of Stone, surrounded by dragons, with no way out.

Raven can barely keep them safe even with her abilities.

She can’t gather them all together and escape without losing most of them in the process.

She needs help.

Carison, Janetha, and Deacon are stuck in Doricinth with no way to get to Raven in time.

Their plan to attack the dragons at the Vale as an organized group has fallen apart. Their idea to use the fireproof Blackscale blood to give them an edge is useless now.

Or is it?

Is there a way to get to Raven after all? Is there a chance?

Whatever the outcome, Lemore has plans of his own. The amulet glows blue.

And with a touch of his hand to the Diamondscale E’vira’tor, everything will change.

Part 2 – Armed and Bloody

Raven and what’s left of the Guardsmen have been saved from the Vale of Stone.

Now they are regrouping in Doricinth with Carison, Janetha, and Deacon.

Their plans are made. It’s time to put them into play.

But you know what they say. Man plans for his next move while the Provider changes the rules of the game.

None of them make it to the Vale of Stone. The fight they were going to look for is coming to them.

Lemore has used ancient magic to swap bodies with the Diamondscale. He leads the dragons now.

It is time for him to reclaim his Kingdom and conquer the realm. The dragons will follow him anywhere, so long as they think he is their Gi’tro’ro.

Lemore is more than willing to play that part so long as it gets him what he wants. But it may be more than playacting. When he suddenly can understand dragon speak, he knows he has gained more than just an invincible body.

Carison and Raven are doing all they can to stop the threat Lemore has brought to the Realm. They know it may not be enough.

What they don’t know, is that not everyone will make it through this fight alive.

Part 3 – Ending

In the remains of the town of Doricinth, Carison and Raven watch as Deacon Winters carries Janetha’s lifeless body.

Too many friends have been lost already. Now, another is gone.

The dragons that Lemore had gathered for his army are either scattered or dead. They will not follow the Diamondscale any longer.

Something is different about him, something wrong. He looks like their Gi’tro’ro, but he is another kind of animal altogether.

He is the Butcher, Lemore.

As Lemore tries to regain his throne through ancient magic and by force, Carison, Raven, and Deacon fight to stop him on the eve of the crescent moon.

Everything hinges on this moment.

The fate of the Realm is in their hands, as are their own.

Each of them knows they may have to die to stop Lemore.

And one of them just might.

Vale of Stone and Beyond by Ruth Ford Elward -
About Vale of Stone and Beyond by Ruth Ford Elward:

Part 1 – Choices

Raven will have her revenge on Lemore, if it burns her to ash.

She waits in the Dragon’s Teeth, watching the Vale of Stone below, waiting for the ally she knows will come. A Greenscale dragon, intelligent enough to know what evil Lemore will spread on the dragons if he is allowed to become King.

Her ally does not want to be enslaved.

A bargain is struck.

Choices.

On their way to Bastion, Carison and his companions are followed. They have to make Bastion as soon as possible, and obtain the help they so desperately need before the next crescent moon.

But, the person following them needs to be dealt with.

Choices.

Raven listens to Fel, her constant dragon companion, tell her that she should return to Carison, that her choices are killing her slowly. He worries for her, and encourages her to regain her sanity before it is too late.

Choices.

In the days leading up to the climactic battle between humans and dragons, good and evil, choices are all they have.

And no one can foresee what’s coming next.

Part 2 – All Hope

In the harsh mercies of Ka’luna’sen, Raven knows fear and pain.

She is near death, with no way to access her considerable powers.

Fel is fading from her. She sees no way out. She only knows she must survive, if only to see the Butcher Lemore dead.

Carison and his companions have reached Bastion. For all the good it has done them.

Governor Theron refuses to go against the orders of the Three Kingdoms. He will not give the Bastion Guardsmen to Carison for the coming battle.

And there is less than five days left before the crescent moon and the celestial alignment that will afford them their one and only chance to kill the Diamondscale.

Miracles, and last chances, and hope lost. This has been the way of things for Paladin Carison Destine.

With new allies and new friends, will nothing change?

Part 3 – Returning

Raven has used the last of her magics to find safety in the only place she knows.

She has transported herself to the arms of Carison Destine, Paladin of the Realm, and the man she loves.

After being ravaged by a Greenscale dragon, she doesn’t know if she’s ready to take Carison’s physical love.

In his arms she finds the comfort she needs. This is love. This is strength. This is what they both need time to give each other.

Only, the world is about to be at war.

There is no time.

There is only danger.

Danger and dragons.

Simply, Mine -
About Simply, Mine:

#1 Best Seller in Children’s Drama by M.L. Gardner writing as Jane Carrington.

Best friends Meagan Davis and Jake Nichols were born on the wrong side of the tracks. Living in a rundown trailer park–her with a welfare scheming, neglectful mother and him with a father wounded in the Gulf War and suffering from PTSD–they forge a friendship they think is unbreakable.

When Jake returns from spending the summer with his grandparents to begin their senior year, he realizes he needs and wants more. Meagan misreads his subtle hints and becomes terrified that she will lose her best friend. Prideful and too stubborn to admit her feelings, even to herself, they begin a game of jealousy that threatens to destroy everything.

And just as Meagan realizes her love for Jake–he gives up, thinking he has been wrong about her all along. She tries to push past her pride and reach out; he insists that things can never be the same. He begins an intense physical program to prepare him for the Army after graduation–a decision she feels is a mistake. Depressed and lonely, Meagan begins to piece her life together without Jake, taking refuge volunteering for a children’s art program and discovers she wants to be a teacher.

While their career plans begin to fall together, the gap between them grows so wide that only an epic winter storm has the power to bring them together. Will they be able to repair the damage to their friendship and admit their feelings for each other?

Christmas Eve -
About Christmas Eve:

Eve Stevens has had enough of dealing with disastrous divorce cases and couples throwing plates at each other. A pretty, bright, curvaceous American lawyer established in Paris, Eve’s decided the present case involving a blonde bimbo and an awkward nerd will be her last divorce case EVER. But that’s when, while waiting in the halls of family court, she crosses paths with a handsome stranger with dark eyes. He’s intriguing, he’s hot but Eve thinks she’ ll probably never see him again, right? Wrong.

Guillaume de la Landrerie, a recently divorced attorney, comes from a wealthy, traditional family, the kind of family that has no qualms whatsoever arranging marriages and throwing in words like “heir” and “dowry” in every conversation. He instantly falls for Eve when he sees her fleetingly in court dealing with her basket case of a client. And he knows he must see her again.

Destiny throws them back together on a flight for Miami where they escape cold, icy, wintery Paris and head towards a very heated destination on Christmas Eve.

What’s not to like about Eve? A strong, confident woman who knows what she wants, Eve isn’t devoid of all insecurities, which makes her human, realistic, relatable and downright loveable. And with all the Ashleys and Kellys out there, Eve is a nice change for a main character’s appellation.

On August 1, 2009, after having just finished reading the Twilight saga and with their level of creativity at an all time high…Melinda and Nicole began sharing ideas about what the ultimate romance novel might be like and by the end of the night, on a piece of purple construction paper, they had created a character list and the basic outline of the plot for this book.

Over My Dead Body by Bruce A. Borders -
About Over My Dead Body by Bruce A. Borders:

How far will a man go to protect his family?

When the director of Child Protective Services uses his position to exact a personal vendetta in removing three-year-old Ashley from the Blake’s home, Jeff Blake, a financial advisor, responds to the threats in the only way he feels he can – violently. By the end of the short encounter, three people are dead and Ashley, the daughter, is still taken and placed in temporary foster care, so the tragic fiasco gained Jeff nothing. Or, so it seems.

Matters are further complicated when Amy, the wife and mother, winds up for a brief stay in a mental ward due to the trauma she witnessed in their home. It seems as though everything is against the Blakes. Understandably, the police, as well as the Courts, are not too concerned with the needs of the family. Complete with many twists of fate, the story looks at the common problems of a typical family caught between love and the law.

“Thought provoking!”

“Exceptional! One of those books you can’t put down!”

THE 4 COUPLE CURRENCIES: HOW TO ENRICH YOUR RELATIONSHIP IN 4 WEEKS -
About THE 4 COUPLE CURRENCIES: HOW TO ENRICH YOUR RELATIONSHIP IN 4 WEEKS:

Why is it that Cupid’s arrows sometimes miss their mark? It’s that sinking feeling when, for example, your partner washes the dishes, while you would have preferred a bunch of roses. Dr Kay Brügge’s insight is that these loving acts, these Cupid arrows, are a form of currency exchanged between two people. We don’t interact, we transact.

The 4 Couple Currencies provides the key to understanding the mysteries of relationship dynamics. It unravels the complexities of what we give to our relationships, what we expect in return and what is expected of us. This book revolutionizes our way of understanding how we act and react in a couple and family scenario. Couple currencies are the words, gestures, behaviors and actions that dictate the dynamics of relationships. By using currencies, we express our feelings–we make our love tangible–and we hope that our partners reciprocate. Challenges can arise if we repeatedly use currencies that our partner doesn’t recognize or value. As a result they may not reciprocate. When currencies fail to hit the mark, we start doubting the relationship, become confused or feel unloved; even rejected.

Couple Currencies speaks to the very heart of those soul-wrenching failures and heartwarming triumphs we experience in the ups and downs of relationships. In addition, this book contains practical advice on how you too can balance your relationship’s requirements against your own needs, dreams and goals, and avoid slipping into a relationship imbalance.

Rise to Power -
About Rise to Power:

Here is the story of David as you have never heard it before: from the king himself, telling the unofficial version, the one he never allowed his court scribes to recount. In his mind, history is written to praise the victorious—but at the last stretch of his illustrious life, he feels an irresistible urge to tell the truth. In the first volume, Rise to Power, David gives you a fascinating account of his early years, culminating with a tribal coronation. Rooted in ancient lore, his is a surprisingly modern memoir.

In an era of cruelty, when destroying the enemy is deemed a sacred directive, the slayer of Goliath finds a way to become larger than life. His search for a path to power leads him in ways that are, at times, scandalous. Notorious for his contradictions, David is seen by others as a gifted court entertainer, a successful captain in Saul’s army, a cunning fugitive, a traitor leading a gang of felons, and a ruthless raider of neighboring towns who leaves no witnesses behind.

How does he see himself, during this first phase of his life? With his hands stained with blood, can he find an inner balance between conflicting drives: his ambition for the crown, his determination to survive the conflict with Saul, and his longing for purity, for a touch of the divine, as expressed so lyrically in his psalms and music?

Author Bio:
Uvi Poznansky is a California-based author, poet and artist. Her writing and her art are tightly coupled. “I paint with my pen,” she says, “and write with my paintbrush.”

She earned her B. A. in Architecture and Town Planning from the Technion in Haifa, Israel. During her studies and in the years immediately following her graduation, she practiced with an innovative Architectural firm, taking part in the design of a large-scale project, Home for the Soldier.

At the age of 25 Uvi moved to Troy, N.Y. with her husband and two children. Before long, she received a Fellowship grant and a Teaching Assistantship from the Architecture department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where she guided teams in a variety of design projects; and where she earned her M.A. in Architecture. Then, taking a sharp turn in her education, she earned her M.S. degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan.

During the years she spent in advancing her career—first as an architect, and later as a software engineer, software team leader, software manager and a software consultant (with an emphasis on user interface for medical instruments devices)—she wrote and painted constantly. In addition, she taught art appreciation classes.

Her versatile body of work can be seen on her website, which includes poem, short stories, bronze and ceramic sculptures, paper engineering projects, oil and watercolor paintings, charcoal, pen and pencil drawings, and mixed media. In addition, she posts her thoughts about the creative process on her blog, and engages readers and writers in conversation on her Goodreads Q&A group.

Uvi published a poetry book in collaboration with her father, Zeev Kachel. Later she published two children books, Jess and Wiggle and Now I Am Paper, which she illustrated, and for which she created animations. You can find these animations on her author page on Amazon, and her author page on Goodreads.

Apart From Love (published 2012) is an intimate peek into the life of a strange family: Natasha, the accomplished pianist, has been stricken with early-onset Alzheimer’s. Her ex-husband Lenny has never told their son Ben, who left home ten years ago, about her situation. At the same time he, Lenny, has been carrying on a love affair with a young redhead, who bears a striking physical resemblance to his wife—but unlike her, is uneducated, direct and unrefined. This is how things stand at this moment, the moment of Ben’s return to his childhood home, and to a contentious relationship with his father.

Home (published 2012), her deeply moving poetry book in tribute of her father, includes her poetry and prose, as well as translated poems from the pen of her father, the poet and author Zeev Kachel.

A Favorite Son (published 2012), her novella, is a new-age twist on an old yarn. It is inspired by the biblical story of Jacob and his mother Rebecca, plotting together against the elderly father Isaac, who is lying on his deathbed. This is no old fairy tale. Its power is here and now, in each one of us.

Twisted (published 2012) is a unique collection of tales. In it, the author brings together diverse tales, laden with shades of mystery. Here, you will come into a dark, strange world, a hyper-reality where nearly everything is firmly rooted in the familiar—except for some quirky detail that twists the yarn, and takes it for a spin in an unexpected direction.

Rise to Power is the story of David as you have never heard it before: from the king himself, telling the unofficial version, the one he never allowed his court scribes to recount. In his mind, history is written to praise the victorious—but at the last stretch of his illustrious life, he feels an irresistible urge to tell the truth.

With the exception for her new release, Rise to Power, these books are available in all three editions (audiobook, print and ebook.)

Lovers & Flowers by Sophie Wainwright -
About Lovers & Flowers by Sophie Wainwright:

For Ruben Truelove, looking at a beautiful picture is so moving that he feels literally drawn inside. Painting is his life’s work. Art is his solace and his escape.

When Ruben’s wife Francesca walks out on him and their introverted teenage daughter Dodie, he decides to reach out to her in the only way he knows how. He begins to talk to her about artworks, trying to convince her that they can have relevance for her, and in wonderful ways.

As father and daughter converse about art, over time they discover a newfound understanding and a tentative closeness. But both have secrets they’d rather keep hidden. Delving further into the worlds contained in artworks, and as their own relationship weaves between intimacy and estrangement, mysterious gifts addressed to Dodie begin to arrive. A third person – an impassioned boy – threatens to disturb the fragile peace they’ve built together.

Told entirely in letters and emails, Ruben recounts for Francesca the story of how Dodie learns to be enriched by pictures. In doing so, he is forced to admit that in helping their daughter uncover the truths inherent in art, he has opened up far more than simply an appreciation of all things artistic. Now, he must first explain, and then face up to, the consequences of what he’s begun.
