Shade (Oracle of Senders Book 1) 

About Shade (Oracle of Senders Book 1)

For fourteen-year-old Callum Silver, seeing dead people is a curse. Forced to live his life surrounded by searing pain, sickening smells, and desperate moans from the long deceased, Cal’s existence is as lonely as the murdered spirits who seek him out. When he’s offered a place at Camp Wanagi, ten weeks in the French countryside isn’t a vacation—it’s a lifeline.

Run by a mysterious group known as the Oracle of Senders, Camp Wanagi brings together teens from around the globe who possess the unique ability to interact with the dead. Cal is excited to meet others like himself and prove his ability can offer more than years of solitude and therapy. But he quickly learns that everyone experiences spirits differently. Some of the campers revere their abilities and don’t understand his hesitation. Others—like quiet bookworm Meander Rhoades—have good reason for wishing they could get rid of their gifts.

Cal is not sure he wants to learn more about ghosts. But when an unmarked grave reveals aspects of his ability he never knew existed, he’s forced to decide if being a part of the Oracle of Senders is necessary, dangerous . . .

Or both.

Before Lazarus can reveal his secrets however, he is assassinated in front of Spire and the rest of the 100-strong specially chosen audience.

A Dark Truth; A Hidden Agenda.

Spire races to assist Lazarus, but the assassin has done too good a job. Amongst the mess, Spire finds the device that Lazarus was about to link up to the planetarium’s projector, on the floor. He grabs the gadget and races out to try find the professor’s killer, but quickly realises other powerful forces are at work.

GLENCOM call an emergency meeting to discuss the event, and invite renowned UFO Historian Dr Richard Doman to give a briefing on the UFO phenomenon, however developments take a mysterious turn. GLENCOM’s tech team manage to override the security settings on Lazarus’ personal device, but when the team try to access it, the device emits a hologram….a message for Spire.

The message from beyond the grave is crystal clear. The UFO phenomenon is real, but the reason for the cover-up is a crime against all of humanity…Continue my quest…Reveal the truth…Don’t get killed.

Spire and ex-U.S. Marine, Travis Dexter, must embark on their most dangerous and important mission yet – as they try to unravel the truth that is the UFO Phenomenon – along with Spire’s recently met acquaintance, Russian astrobiologist, Dr Isobel Enova.

Author Bio:
“Being a mother, I have read many picture books to my children. However, there were NONE that showed OUR family unit, a family with gay grampas. Working together with my father, Robert, we have taken a true story and turned it into a beautifully illustrated picture book.”

Julie Schanke Lyford has been fortunate enough to live and travel throughout much of the US and Europe. She has visited Greece, Holland, Scotland, Wales, France and Denmark, to name only a few. In the 80s, Julie lived in London and camped out to witness Princess Diana’s in the royal procession to her marriage, an interesting tidbit she rightfully likes to share. The chance to see so much of the world has also given Julie the unique opportunity to see how humanity functions in various countries. She has witnessed both the good and the bad and been inspired by both.

Throughout her life, Julie has lived as an activist. She employs her degrees in Theatre and Communications, coupling them with her passion for public speaking to stand up for the rights of others. The cause closest to her heart has always been same-sex marriages. Julie was trained by Minnesota United for All Families and traveled throughout Minnesota, giving speeches, working tirelessly in rallying the vote for Marriage Equity in Minnesota. According to her father, Robert, co-author of Katy had Two Grandpas, Julie began her life of activism at an early age after a rally with her parents at Capitol Hill. Julie has dedicated many, many years to her causes and received the Lavender Community Award in recognition.

While raising her children, Julie noticed the lack of picture books depicting a family dynamic such as their family had. There were books about gay dads and moms, but none featuring gay grampas. Recognizing the need children have to connect with stories and see themselves in the pages, Julie and Robert created their book Katy has Two Grampas. Julie worked with illustrator Mariia Luzina, who lived in Italy at the time, during the Covid pandemic lockdown. The two of them communicated via text and email to create the perfect pictures to go along with the story. Katy has Two Grampas is based on an event that happened to Julie’s youngest daughters and features a cast of characters from the lives of Julie and her family.

When she is not writing or presenting, Julie loves to spend time with her family. She enjoys watching movies and live theatre and is looking forward to traveling again once the world recovers from the pandemic. Julie Schanke Lyford lives in West Saint Paul, MN, with her husband Rafe, two daughters Katy and Madi, and Wallace, their rescue dog.

Lanie Heart
My life has never been easy, but after tragedy strikes, I need a new beginning.

Becoming a nanny was not in my life plan, but after one chance encounter nearly destroyed me, this one could set me free.

I’ve given up on the idea of love, so living with a stranger shouldn’t be a problem. My past broke me beyond repair, and I’ve learned to accept that. What I’m not prepared for is my new boss to be the unbearably sexy single dad, Dexter Cross. He exudes a confidence I’ve never known and brings out a sass I didn’t know I had.

Teasing him comes naturally, but the more time I spend with him and his children, the harder I fear it will be to leave. And I must leave.

I promised him one year, but all too quickly Dex sets his eyes and heart on me. He thinks I can choose them and stay, but he doesn’t understand my kind of damaged. My scars run deep, but apparently so does his determination.

With the help of our crazy friends, he sets out to make me his one grand gesture at a time.

But the question remains: Am I strong enough to let go of my past? Or are some hearts too broken to heal, even for Dexter Cross?

Author Bio:
An American Romance Author, Avery loves wine, sexy stories, pizza, and her family.

Avery is a hot mess of a mom to four wildly sweet mini-humans and two fur babies. She spends far too much time in her pj’s and trips over herself multiple times a day. Accident-prone is probably a fair assessment.

Having grown up in small-town Vermont, Avery often jokes about being the most naïve person in the room. Luckily, she’s used that small-town charm to write character-driven contemporary romances that have you laughing one minute, and crying the next.

When she isn’t refereeing (three little boys require a lot of whistle blowing), or cuddled up with her real-life Prince Charming, you can find her tucked away with a bottle of wine (because those steamy scenes don’t write themselves!), or coaching her daughter’s basketball team.

Avery now lives in North Carolina where she brings life, love, and a happily ever after to every character she writes.



Skybound 

About Skybound

What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning?

Half the world would become trapped in endless night, the other half in relentless day. Global communications would be crippled. The oceans would migrate to the Earth’s magnetic poles, and global tremors would threaten the stability of the entire planet. In other words, things would be bad. Very bad.

That’s what happens in SKYBOUND. And the clock is ticking.

The world is in chaos. Theories about the impossible phenomenon run the gamut from broken physics to little green men to the dawning of the end times. But everyone agrees on one thing:

The massive metallic object that suddenly appeared in the sky is to blame.

In his debut novel, Lou Iovino weaves a modern-day fable that traces the path of two small-town siblings who find themselves thrust into events that will reshape humanity, and grappling with the question that has plagued mankind for eons.

It’s Just Business 

About It’s Just Business

“If I wasn’t careful, I would lose my heart to this dreamy, business stealing man.”

Growing up, Haley Lane’s mom had more boyfriends than flowers have petals. A fact that has given Haley zero hope for love. It doesn’t exist. But when a charming man with an annoyingly perfect smile and a habit of volunteering keeps running into her, she wonders if she was wrong all along.

That is until she realizes he’s the one that stole her flower shop.

Austin Ryder is one of the good guys, and as they say, ‘Nice guys finish last.’ But he’s determined to finally finish first, even if it injures a beautiful stranger. Good thing he’ll never see her again. Right?

Will Haley let things go and accept her feelings for Owen? Or will revenge be her only solution? In the end, it’s all just business, isn’t it?”

A laugh-out-loud, enemies to lovers romance that is full of all the sarcasm and swoons! ♥

Her superpower? Besides writing book dedications that purposely call out her husband, she is really good at giving people an escape from their everyday lives in the form of a story.

 



Earth’s First Civilization: Antarctica, 55 Million B.C., by Michael Hawking and Jenna Wolfe Ph.D. 

About Earth’s First Civilization: Antarctica, 55 Million B.C., by Michael Hawking and Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

Free on June 16th and June 17th. Explore evidence of an Advanced Civilization that existed on the Antarctic Continent in the Paleocene Epoch, and other mysterious cultures of prehistory.
To explore these remarkable finds, this book has four primary purposes: 1) to present archaeological and other competent evidence demonstrating that civilizations of tremendous antiquity once existed on our planet—evidence either known, inexactly known, or currently tentative; 2) to examine evidence regarding the true age of those civilizations; 3) to explore the possible origins of those civilizations; and 4) to reveal the profound esoteric knowledge and technical abilities possessed by the cultures of those civilizations.
For decades the archaeological community labored under the theory that human civilization began after the last Ice Age. The theory conjectured that, prior to that time, humans were no more than primitive hunter-gatherers incapable of communal organization or sophisticated abilities, and it was only after the last glacial period—following the melting of the 10,000 foot thick ice sheets that covered much of the northern portion of the world’s continents—that our human ancestors began to develop agriculture and complex economic and social structures, sometime around 4000 B.C.
Contemporary discoveries have dramatically undermined those theories. Modern research has unearthed buried civilizations and discovered hidden cities one after another—archaeology now reconstructs an unsuspected antiquity of man and paints a canvas of stunningly mysterious dimensions. Previous academic accounts of the origins of civilization have fallen forfeit to evidence from archaeological sites worldwide, including Thebes (c. 37,900 BC), Edfu (c. 18,000 BC), Turkey (c. 12,000 BC), Bolivia (c. 15,000 BC), Indonesia (c. 22,000 BC), and, most intriguingly, on the Antarctic Continent. The stunning discovery in Antarctica, if fully confirmed, will represent the greatest archaeological find of history.
Organization & Content: Part I of this book explores the true antiquity of civilization on this planet, examines the ancient traditions and theogonies that shed light on the existence and age of prehistoric civilizations, details the substantial evidence for a Paleocene civilization on the Antarctic continent 55 million years ago, and takes an inside look at recent astronomical and cosmological discoveries.
As the study of antiquity is properly accounted purely academic except as it may be made living knowledge which illuminates and enriches our contemporary life, a comprehensive Special Bonus Supplement containing Parts II and III of this book explore the extremely rare arcane knowledge of the ancient world, along with the powerful abilities that can be attained from the study of that knowledge, ones that convey benefits of great value in our modern world.
Doubtless many of the very earliest chapters of our planet’s history will lie forever silent under her most desolate soil and deepest waters, yet extant legends and traditions have been too readily set aside—academic pundits love to brand as mythical the accounts which have endured the millennia, and which mischievously persist.
We invite you to explore amazing discoveries and knowledge that for long millenniums has remained concealed under layers of legend, myth, and secrecy. A truly incomparable book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge and personal power, and especially fascinating for anyone interested in the realities behind the ubiquitous legends of antediluvian civilizations and the possibility of ancient extraterrestrial influences. 2021 Edition, for more information, please see the ‘Look Inside’ feature on the book’s Amazon page. Thank you, and enjoy!

Author Bio:
I am the author of The Storyteller’s Student and the founder of C2Improve: where we help people discover their “hidden” talent in storytelling, as well as work with companies to develop and share their stories. By finding these stories, their message becomes much more powerful and can move others to act.

I grew up in a small village called Obuoffia in Nigeria (just to send you off to google maps), actually remember walking the streets of Port Harcourt and Enugu as a bank sales rep (just call me a door to door salesman).

I relocated to The Netherlands to follow an MSc and also a PhD. in chemical process engineering. Yea, I know “became” a geek. As a process engineer, I have designed installations and also led a production plant. I am currently focused on delivering life-changing stories as well as making stories work for others.

I live in Arnhem with my two young boys and the love of my life. When I am not looking for stories to tell, I teach at my local church as well as manage the worship quality. Developing stories remains my major passion.
