    Author Bio:
    Hi, my name is Andy Johnson, I’m the author of ‘How to stop worrying and start living: The Most Effective, Permanent Solution to Finally Overcome Worrying and Start Living” and many other self-help books.

    I enjoy writing books that hopefully will benefit the people who read it and add value to their lives. As a person who always turned to books I hope to give back as well. for a long period of my life I never stopped to enjoy them, and I had no one to do that for me. When it finally happened, I wanted to share my epiphany with others, and that’s how “How to stop worrying” was born.

    I was a project manager of big computers companies, when I decided to leave it all behind and just write. I hope you enjoy my work.

  3. 6 Minutes Wrestling With Life -

    6minBookCover20140624About 6 Minutes Wrestling With Life:

    In every loss there is a lesson that you need to learn, and one by one when you learn the lessons they will all come together to make you a man.

    The reward that you seek, may not be the reward that you receive…

    Twenty-six years ago, JohnA’s goal and mission in life was to win a New York State Wrestling Championship.

    He committed himself to a lifestyle, made the sacrifices, put in the time, starved himself and even shaved his head; he had the hunger, the desire and the determination.

    But he came up short.

    For many years, after JohnA graduated it seemed like he got nothing out of his six years of total dedication to the sport.

    That the trade off of what he gave and what he got in return to the sport of wrestling was way out of whack.

    To put every ounce of ones soul into achieving something and to get nothing out of it in return was beyond his comprehension and he just could not justify it in his head.

    He hated wrestling for it.

    Until he had adversity in his life.

    And slowly but surely, JohnA started to realize how much the sport of wrestling actually gave back to him.

    Much more than he ever knew.

    When life throws you to your back, you need to know how not to get pinned, to get off of your back and pick yourself up in order to win.

    The sport of wrestling provided JohnA with a much greater reward than the one that he sought – To stand on a podium for a few seconds – It provided him with a way to live life.

    A belief system that he would use to help him win his ultimate battle in his life when his teenage daughter Jessica lands in a medically induced coma.

    “6 Minutes Wrestling With Life” is a riveting, emotional story of one wrestling families refusal to give up, to be able to endure physical and emotional pain and keep moving forward to achieve their ultimate goal:

    To care for and cure their daughter Jessica, and to live and love life.

    One, without the other was just unacceptable.

    A champion is not someone who won his last match of the season, a champion is the person who gives his all in attempting to do so.

    Author Bio:
    I always knew that I would write, I just had no idea how personal my first book, “6 Minutes Wrestling with Life”, would be to me.

    I love to inspire, motivate and show a different approach to dealing with or solving life’s problems through my writing.

    As a former athlete and current coach, I believe that in sports there are valuable life lessons that can have a tremendous impact on a young athletes life.

    I pull these life lessons out from my own experiences in sport.

    Hopefully I have touched you through my writing and have stirred your emotions enough to live life more fully.

  5. Random Acts of Crazy (Random Series #1) -

    pixAbout Random Acts of Crazy (Random Series #1):

    “NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY BESTSELLING NOVEL! 346 pages

    “”It was funny and irreverant like Wallbanger, but deep and moving like Barbara Elsbourg’s Strangers. That is a tough mix to pull off. I should warn you though, this book should come with a surgeon general’s warning: ‘Do not start this book if you have any where to be, anything to do or need to pretend to be remotely interested in conversations with breathing human beings that are not currently also reading this book.’ Enjoy!”” — Amazon reader review

    “”Random Acts of Crazy one of the best if not the best books I’ve read in a long time. Could not put it down. I laugh so hard my side hurt. Thank God I didn’t pee myself!! Congratulations on such an awesome read.”” — Goodreads reader review

    “”Be warned, this is not your mother’s romance. It’s hard and gritty and smacks you in the face like that burst of heat when you first open an oven door, which is exactly what makes it a refreshing change from a typical sticky sweet love story.”” — Featured Staff Pick from Cat at All Romance eBooks

    Description:

    I never intended to pick up a naked hitchhiker wearing nothing but a guitar. A guitar. Really. I don’t collect guys like that (don’t ask what kind of guys I do collect), but when you spot a blonde, tanned, sculpted man with a gorgeous smile and his thumb poking up and practically begging you to stop – you stop.

    And I definitely never thought I’d be staring into the bright blue eyes of Trevor Connor, the lead singer for Random Acts of Crazy, an indie rock star I followed like the slobbering fileshare fangirl I am. How he came to be nude and lost six hundred miles from home is quite the tale, but how we fell in love is even more unreal.

    Because someone like Trevor Connor, headed to Harvard Law next year, isn’t supposed to want someone like me, a rural Ohio chick majoring in Boredom at Convenience Store University who is all curves and frizzy blonde hair and manners so unpolished they have sharp edges that make you bleed.

    But he did.

    When his best friend, Joe Ross, the bass player for Random Acts of Crazy and a man who makes Calvin Klein models look like Shrek, drove eleven hours through the night to rescue him, though, it got real complicated. It’s one thing to like two different guys and be torn.

    What do you do, though, when maybe – just maybe – you don’t have to choose?

  8. The Heart of Hannen: Book I in The Atriian Trilogy by Fawn Bonning -

    The-heart-of-hannen-posterAbout The Heart of Hannen: Book I in The Atriian Trilogy by Fawn Bonning:

    Only .99 on Kindle July 28-August 4

    The Heart of Hannen is an epic tale of dark fantasy, erotic romance, and horror. It was recently awarded Runner-Up in the 2014 New York Book Festival under the category of romance.

    Christine is a troubled teen with a dark past. She is miserable in her small town where she feels destined to live her life as an outcast.

    She has no idea that her true destiny lies in a different town . . . and in a different world, a most brutal world called Atriia. There she will learn the true meaning of misery, the true meaning of loneliness and shame.

    And in the arms of a most unlikely candidate, she will also learn the true meaning of love.

    He is Hannen Fallier, the one they call the foul fraigen dropper, revered by men for his fearless feats, yet looked upon by women with open disdain. With a face horribly mauled, he hides behind a mask of shame, deeming himself unworthy of love.

    That he would seek acceptance from Christine is irony in its purest form. That he would seek her love . . . the ultimate betrayal.

    **Mature subject matter**

    **Warning – Enter Atriia at your own risk, but beware, it is not for the faint of heart. If you do decide to brave your way within, you will need the aid of the dictionary located at the back of the book.

    Author Bio:
    Hello. My name is Fawn Bonning. I was born and raised in South Florida. At the age of forty, I packed up my things and moved to Tennessee where I now reside with my husband, four sons, and six dogs. Reading, writing, singing, eating, Japanese gardening, and bulb planting are a few of my favorite things to do.

    I must warn you, I love horror, and this reflects in my writing. I grew up reading Stephen King and watching Creature Feature. My favorite series right now is The Walking Dead. Zombies, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, aliens, anything paranormal, I love it all. And I’m drawn to epic fantastic tales that put you in dark dystopian worlds where it is a challenge just to stay alive. The Stand, by Stephen King, is one of my favorite novels. Richard Adams’ Watership Down is another, and you will find my love of animals evident in my writing. I also love a good erotic romance, but was never able to find this in the horror novels that I loved so much. Thus the writer in me was born.

    The Atriian Trilogy is dark, dystopian, fantasy fiction with a healthy dose of horror and a fair share of sensual erotic encounters that should satisfy any romance lover. Enter Atriia if you dare, but beware, it is not for the faint of heart.

    Ava Lancet has lost her job, her marriage, and her baby when she discovers she has inherited her grandmother’s dilapidated farmhouse in a tiny village in central Greece. With the kind of emotional impulsiveness that has frustrated her stony-faced husband for years, she decides to move there and recover from life’s sorrows.

    When an elderly woman in the village mistakes Ava for her grandmother, telling her, with tears trickling down her face, that she is sorry, Ava is both touched and intrigued. What is the woman sorry for, and what secrets did her grandmother keep? Soon Ava is discovering the surprising threads of her grandmother’s life, including her part in the local Resistance during World War Two and a forbidden love affair with a British SOE agent.

    Spanning three generations and exploring the lives of two very different and yet surprisingly similar women, The Other Side of The Bridge will remind you how a fragile hope can spring from both tragedy and despair.

  12. River Ruckus Bloody Bay by John Cunningham Jr. -

    FINAL-River-Ruckus-copy-copyAbout River Ruckus Bloody Bay by John Cunningham Jr.:

    While the Civil War rages on land and sea, Moxley Westcott flees to Mobile to escape arrest by the Union army. Here he encounters, then falls in love with the beautiful yet emotionally troubled Susan Jessup. His brother Ben, critically wounded and a prisoner, hovers at death’s door. Their parents and their sister Annie return to their Louisiana plantation, unaware that Ben’s mortal enemy, Xavier Locke, plans their demise.

    Susan resists Moxley’s efforts to help her overcome her personal demons; Alex Jessup finds service aboard a new Confederate cruiser. But soon, yellow fever plagues Alex and her crew.

    Meanwhile, Philippe Soileau and Annie’s former suitor, Randall Bartlett, fight the Yankees farther north. So does Susan’s father, who commands an Alabama regiment.

    In New Orleans, Nancy suffers from the Westcott’s former butler’s verbal and physical abuse. If Danny can’t find forgiveness and doesn’t survive the war, he’ll never discover his true destiny and Nancy’s suffering will continue.

    As the novel roars toward its climax, their stories intersect during the war’s bloodiest naval battle, the Battle of Mobile Bay, and a final showdown upriver from New Orleans.

    Book 2 of the Southern Sons-Dixie Daughters series continues the triumphs, conflicts, and tragedies of these four Southern families set against the sweeping saga of the Civil War’s western naval campaigns. Who will live to see the end of the war? Who will die? Who will choose forgiveness and change rather than a hardened heart?

    rabbit book coverAbout Rabbit: (a novel?):

    This book is finished, the author declares. But it is never finished.

    Rabbit explores a young folklorist driving 4,000 miles, collecting ghost stories and meeting his homeless schizophrenic father for the first time. Our narrator is attempting to finish his book, pausing the story to debate with his frustrated editor. The manuscript is unraveling as he approaches its end. Rabbit is a meta-fiction literary novel depicting a young writer’s obsessions with our cosmos, estranged parents, abuse, and infidelity. It is an angst-riddled ride through the American subconscious of the twenty-first century.

    Meeting his father was not the ending he expected. It was the beginning of his darkest descent.

    After a failed pitch attempt to a round of agents at a literary conference, he set out on a road trip to meet his homeless father. This trip fueled another novel. Renda Dodge of Pink Fish Press had kept herself updated on Jared’s blog after becoming familiar with his meticulous prose from a previous pitch. Renda requested “Rabbit” which had so far faced handfuls of rejections. Finished reading it, she contacted him immediately to sign the novel into contract. “Rabbit” editor, Marissa Bea, knew what Jared was aiming for–that careful teetering along the edge between fiction and memoir. Their strong author/editor bond resulted in the book’s fictional characters, J and M.

    Jared performs with the Portland Foul Weather Writers and can be found diving into his journal just about anywhere in the Pacific Northwest. Rabbit is his first published novel. He is busy writing the next six.

    bookcover-v2About In the Shadows by Katie Welsby:

    When the loves of her past-life turns up, things hot up for Lucy Blaisdell. Trouble is, which of the feuding pair offers genuine romance, and which is just out for revenge? There’s also the small matter of a witch to contend with – or is it a gentler magic the mysterious Ellen offers with her overtures of friendship?

    It’s easy to fall for Alex Craven’s good looks and witty charm, but it’s Nathan Harlow’s dark and brooding, almost rude manner, that Lucy can’t help but find herself being drawn to. To make things even messier, there’s no love lost between Nathan and Alex, and their history seems to go back a long way…

    Right back to a dark past-life in the Napoleonic era, if Lucy’s increasingly strange and seductive dreams are to be believed.

    When the past catches up with them, disaster strikes, and Lucy must learn the truth about her past-life before history repeats itself.

    Author Bio:
    I have been writing off and on since childhood. My first story was written at the age of eight. ‘The Mist of Dawnwood’ was set in a spooky forest in England, where the animals who lived there hadn’t seen natural daylight for years, and longed to find a way to free themselves from this bleak way of living.

    I have moved on since then, and started writing ‘The Blaisdell Chronicles’ a couple of years ago. ‘In the Shadows’ is the first in the series. I have long been a fan of the Regency era, and wanted to write a book based on that, but aimed at the YA market.

    Last year, I won a competition set by literary consultant Claire Wingfield. I had to complete an exercise based on an article in her ’52 Dates for Writers’ guide book.

    Sean Bowers is haunted by the voices in his head. He struggles to keep a grip on reality, but the voices threaten his sanity. They also challenge the law, pressuring Sean to do terrible, evil things he can’t even consider. The voices continue, and he eventually loses the fight against them, giving in to their demands.

    As he is propelled into a world of murder and crime, his actions feel beyond his control—and yet, at the same time, he feels justified. The horrible occurrences that surround Sean soon cast a shadow on his small neighborhood. The townspeople want justice. Even his family finds it impossible to be on his side, turning against Sean with disastrous consequences.

    As the voices continue, secrets come to light that make it clear Sean’s troubles are not merely madness, but something much darker. With this new knowledge and the help of his remaining loved ones, will Sean return to a semblance of sanity—or will he allow the voices inside to permanently alter his fate?

  16. ARK by Phil Penhallow -

    Ark-finalAbout ARK by Phil Penhallow:

    An unstoppable extinction level event (ELE) approaches the Earth. This impending disaster emanates from within our own solar system, yet to be formally identified by astronomers, is the vast planet named Ark. The 3400 year orbital path of this colossal Earth-like celestial body maintains catastrophic potential which is capable of destroying human life as we know it. For a privileged few, preparations have been under way for many years to save their own lives, the rest of us will perish. In a race against time to save as many as possible humans and alien races work both for and against each other, as a complex web of deceit and mistrust unfolds, to save or “use” as many humans as they can.

    Centering on a variety of interconnected characters the book paints an intricate and personal picture of each, driven to great lengths, with their frantic actions demonstrating the challenging and dire state of Earth. Two such characters are those of Geoff and Spike, standing at 7 foot tall, green skinned, yet human looking, these Eridanian’s are equipped with telepathic capability and an understanding of incredibly advanced technology. Sent to a deep underground base in a normal exchange program they carry out undercover work, however while there they discover the true nature of the base. It is a vile breeding ground where humans are grown from embryos previously extracted from Terran mothers without their knowledge.

    Author Bio:
    Hello, from a very early age I was fascinated by the possibility of life elsewhere and the almost incomprehensible size of the universe. Among the most significant books I read were those by Erich von Däniken. This led to reading books on ancient history and the possibility of previous visitations to Earth by other civilizations. With thirty five years of research on the topic I decided the time was right to write a book on the subject. However, I wanted to do something different than just write about all the data as this has been done before. I felt it would be a good idea to write the sort of book that I wanted to read as a Science Fiction story instead. The result is ARK. It is my intention to write a trilogy of books with this being the first in the series called the Arkan People of Earth (APE). I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it. I have a PhD in Chemistry and lecture in Maths and Chemistry in the South West of England where I live with my lovely wife and two beautiful daughters.

  17. THE SALSA CONNECTION -

    THE-SALSA-CONNECTIONAbout THE SALSA CONNECTION:

    A spellbinding International romantic thriller from one of Amazon’s bestselling authors.This award winning novel of a family torn apart has a gripping quality that offers a mesmerizing look into Russian life with riveting insights into the word of competitive salsa dancing.

    When you never give up hope
    love will find a way
    Where ever you have to go
    love will lead you
    and all you have to do
    is simply–DANCE!

    THE SALSA CONNECTION–AN INTERNATIONAL ROMANTIC THRILLER is romantic thriller that has already won the Royal Palm Literary Award for best thriller. The story moves from the salsa clubs of St. Petersburg, Russia to New York to Louisiana and, finally, to Italy. The red-hot thread of the dance runs through a novel that explores the Russian mob, slavery and prostitution rings, and the art world, as well as love, loss, revenge and the strength of family ties.
    When Nickolay Panov left St Petersburg, Russia to go to New York City for an international ballet competition 25 years ago, he was considered one of the best ballet dancers in Russia. The Americans say he was murdered. The Russians say he defected. In any case, he never returned. Just before Nickolay disappeared, several priceless paintings and icons from a major museum were stolen. While he was accused of the theft, no solid proof has ever been offered to tie him to it. However, evidence shows that the stolen goods were shipped to America. The CIA and the Russian Government are still pursuing all leads connected to the heist, and so is the Russian mafia.
    Sveta was three years old when her father disappeared, so it’s a shock when, in the mail, she receives an invitation to a salsa dance competition in New York. At the bottom of the invitation is a note: “Please come to the competition and
    enter, my little lady.” No one but her father has ever called her that. Why has her father surfaced after all these years? Sveta wants answers, even if it means entering the late-night, sultry world of salsa dancing in St Petersburg and New York City and coming into uncomfortably close contact with the Russian mob.

  18. MODELS AND LOVERS -

    Models-and-Lovers-EbookAbout MODELS AND LOVERS:

    This is a modern day romance from one of Amazon’s bestselling romance writers who writes true life contemporary romances. Is it possible to be the most eligible bachelor forever? Even in NEW YORK CITY! And to do so while also owning the top modeling agency there?

    After meeting that one special woman there are only two questions that have to be answered:
    Will his ego now prevent him from acknowledging his true inner feelings? And will she be able to trust him with her own hidden fears?

    This is a love story blossoming inside the world of modeling. In spite of the glamor and intrigue of this high fashion world, love is really about one guy and one girl finding each other. But wait, there is one more condition–they have to admit it to each other.

    The arrangement of this story involves Thomas (Tommy) Conseco, the frightfully delicious owner of one of the top modeling agencies in New York City, who demands respect which he has so rightfully earned. Aspiring models from around the world would sacrifice anything to
    become one of Tommy’s “girls” fully knowing he can make them a legend, or send them home crying. Tommy has one rule he has followed without exception. He never gets personally involved with anyone in the modeling industry, and as far as sex with his models and employees is concerned, it’s strictly off limits. As a result, his heart is immune to even the most beautiful women in the world. This rule has served him well in business, but has left his personal life and bed cold and empty.

    Enter Balarie Danson, the woman who is about to turn his carefully constructed world upside down. Balarie may not have the glamorous looks of a super model, but she’s bright, attractive and terrific at her job booking talent for the agency, especially the male models. Yielding to her charms, Tommy invites her to go on a business trip to Milan with more than business on his mind.

    When she turns him down, saying she’d prefer to concentrate all her energies in the New York market, Tommy assumes she’s refusing him and the possible chance at romance. The truth–Balarie is secretly terrified of flying and a long cross-Atlantic flight is more than she can face, despite her ambition in business and her secret attraction to her enigmatic boss.

    She’s heard the rumors, but the sparks flying between them are telling her Tommy’s looking for more than her talent as a booking agent. But Balarie is also looking for more than a one-night stand. So if Tommy intends to break his long-standing rule and seduce this woman into his bed, he’ll also have to let her into his heart because Balarie won’t settle for anything less than a love that lasts forever, and a hero who can help her conquer her fear of flying.

  27. What Smiled at Him -

    whatsmiledathimAbout What Smiled at Him:

    99 Cent Bargain from July 28 – August 3, 2014

    Childhood friends Lynn and Marv, now in their late twenties, have taken different roads. One is a struggling musician, the other a salesman for a software company. One night far from home, a mix of alcohol, recklessness and coincidence reunite them with Caroline, the longtime object of their desires. Married into a wealthy Chicago family and unhappy, she begins an affair with Marv.

    A few weeks later, when Caroline is arrested and charged with murdering her husband and infant son, the unwelcome mystery pursues the friends through their searches for love, stabs at success, self-destructive lapses and leads one of them to his death.

    What Smiled at Him is an unorthodox, contemporary mystery in which the protagonists have the means to solve a mystery, but flounder at the threshold of solving it.

    Praise for What Smiled at Him

    “The novel has an angry edge to it, recalling the spirit of the Beats. Many of the peripheral characters speak like prophets… Marv and Lynn are just as self-aware as their supporting cast, and their abundance of wisdom sometimes stretches believability; it’s tempered, however, by the flaw of their continually self-destructive behavior. Watching them ignore their better instincts… makes the characters more endearing.”

    -Kirkus Reviews

    “‘What Smiled at Him’ manages to be somber, colorful, and often guffaw-out-loud funny. It reads fast but is loaded with trenchant observations on modern relationships, growing up, and happiness that will give the reader pause.”

    -Kevin Kosar, author of Whiskey: A Global History

    A-WAR-HERO-RETURNS1About A WAR HERO RETURNS:

    Another international romantic thriller from AWARD WINNING NOVELIST JOHNNY RAY, one of Amazon’s bestselling authors.

    This MILITARY/CIA romance involves a female war hero who returns to America to face the biggest challenge of her life. While Suzan Mercer’s father promised in his dying words the land he left her would bring her love, she never anticipated the events involved in the process.
    Now, could she balance the arrangement of her new love life with her hidden CIA commitment? Could she?

    After serving eight years in the army, Suzan Mercer returns from Afghanistan to Florida as a female war hero-her works as a CIA operative, of course, would always be hidden. She couldn’t believe her mother had used the arrangement of a power of attorney while she was gone to sell the land her father had left her. After learning her mother also has early onset Alzheimer’s and claims to have been taken advantage of by Matt Harris, the billionaire developer involved, Suzan uses her military and CIA training to plot her revenge and to reacquire her land.

    Entering a world where high heels replace combat boots and deep red lipstick becomes more deadly than a colt 45, Suzan never anticipated the cost to reacquire her land would be losing her heart. Matt also learns his money and power cannot acquire the one asset he has always lacked in his life as he ventures into untested skies without a golden parachute to save him. Also, would the ghost of his playboy image come back to haunt him?

  31. Apparition Lake by Daniel D. Lamoreux -

    APPARITION-LAKE-COMPLETEAbout Apparition Lake by Daniel D. Lamoreux:

    Something is terribly wrong in the nation’s oldest national park.

    Horrific deaths have occurred throughout Yellowstone and everyone believes that a monstrous grizzly bear is on a rampage. Scientific evidence suggests another terrifying conclusion. For Chief Ranger Glenn Merrill, putting an end to the mysterious deaths is more than just his job, it is a mission that will take him to the brink of death and shatter the foundation of his beliefs.

    Apparition Lake plunges Glenn, his full-blooded Shoshone friend Johnny Two Ravens, and Jennifer Davies, an aggressive young biologist, into a world of Indian mysticism where mankind and nature struggle for control of Mother Earth. Apparition Lake races through its supernatural tale of an environment that has “had enough” and the Native American spirit it uses to mete out its revenge.

  32. Sister, Psychopath by Maggie James -

    SP_blogAbout Sister, Psychopath by Maggie James:

    When they were children, Megan Copeland adored her younger sister Chloe.
    Now she can hardly bear to be in the same room as her.
    Megan believes Chloe to be a psychopath. After all, her sister’s a textbook case: cold, cruel and lacking in empathy. Chloe loves to taunt Megan at every opportunity, as well as manipulating their mentally ill mother, Tilly, a woman blind to Chloe’s sociopathic nature.
    Chloe currently has her eye on James Matthews, Tilly’s employer. Except it’s not James Chloe wants, but his wealth. Moreover, she has every intention of getting her hands on it, and soon.
    James, however, is preoccupied with his own conflicts. Both his marriages have been failures. Now Megan’s former lover, Toby Turner, is causing him to question everything in his life.
    When Tilly, under Chloe’s malignant influence, becomes dangerously unstable, the consequences turn ugly for everyone. Megan’s world falls apart, allowing long-buried secrets to rise to the surface. Her sister’s out of control, it seems, and there’s little Megan can do about it. Until she realises Chloe is targeting Toby Turner next, and planning to step well beyond the rules…
    A study of sibling rivalry and dysfunctional relationships, Sister, Psychopath tells the story of one woman’s struggle to survive the damage inflicted by her sociopathic sister.

    Author Bio:
    Maggie James is a British author who lives in Bristol. She writes psychological suspense novels.

    The first draft of her first novel, entitled His Kidnapper’s Shoes, was written whilst travelling in Bolivia. Maggie was inspired by an impending birthday along with a healthy dose of annoyance at having procrastinated for so long in writing a novel. His Kidnapper’s Shoes was published in both paperback and e-book format in 2013, followed by her second novel, entitled Sister, Psychopath. Her third novel, Guilty Innocence, has now been published, and like her first two, features her home city of Bristol. She is currently working on her fourth novel.

    Before turning her hand to writing, Maggie worked mainly as an accountant, with a diversion into practising as a nutritional therapist. Diet and health remain high on her list of interests, along with travel. Accountancy does not, but then it never did. The urge to pack a bag and go off travelling is always lurking in the background! When not writing, going to the gym, practising yoga or travelling, Maggie can be found seeking new four-legged friends to pet; animals are a lifelong love!
