Shots of Indifference: The Story by Sheila Murdock

Emerald Valley, Nevada is officially put on the map.

16-year-old Michaela Knapp’s prom night becomes an instant international story for an incident that is all too common. Her boyfriend Kelvin Ifill, a 16-year-old black boy, is shot by a white cop during a traffic stop. But Kelvin is unlike all of the other disadvantaged black boys that end up in these situations. He happens to be from a prominent family of great wealth–billionaire wealth–and his family is determined to not let the cop who shot their son get away with what he did.

The cop, Stu Kwiatkowski, is put in more of a difficult situation than ever since his wife is black, as well as having biracial kids, and he doesn’t know if she’s going to support him through this along with her side of the family. To make matters worse for Michaela, who is biracial with a black mom and a white dad, she gets a very unexpected surprise when she finds out that her dad was once best friends with Stu. This revelation nearly divides her family since she wants both of her parents to support Kelvin and his family, but this is easier said than done especially when it comes to her dad.

But Michaela knows that there is way more to the story about Kelvin being shot but doesn’t want to tell what she knows for only reasons that she knows, and she really struggles with this, but knows that the whole story will have to be told whether she wants to tell it or not. Meanwhile, Stu also struggles with what he’s done and is not exactly telling the whole story. He’s also still struggling with an incident that happened almost 30 years ago and feels that there’s definitely a connection to this current one.

Whose story is believable will depend on who people want to believe or who they think they should believe, but there’s one person who may or may not be able to tell their version of the story at all.

Shots of Indifference is the first book in the Shots of Indifference series.

The Devil of Dashford Manorby Nadine Millard

Simon Taft, Earl of Dashford has spent years cultivating the reputation that earned him the name Devil of Dashford Manor. Having learned as a boy that women were to be admired, but not trusted, he is more than happy to revel in his bachelor life, and is determined to stay that way.

Amelia Linchfield is as studious as she is unobtrusive. Being a wallflower doesn’t bother her in the slightest, because she’s only in London to meet an illustrious archaeologist, and convince him to make her a part of his next expedition.

In a moment of madness, Simon decides to help Amelia get what she wants, even as he’s finding it harder and harder to fight his growing attraction to the willful wallflower.

They say opposites attract and never have two people been so opposite.

Can a bookish bluestocking really be the one to capture the heart of the Devil?

Anger from Milt’s former lover? Revenge from the lover’s husband? Milt’s proposed cigarette tax increase despised by a North Carolina tobacco farmer? The California Senator who wants to be Governor of California? Or the chef’s assistant who hates Milt’s liberal views?

Join Chef Wes, Liz, and her new doggie friend, Sam, a huge bullmastiff, as they search for the murderer and the motive.

Making the Switch: How to Put Yourself First in a World That Tells You Not To by Alison Brown

In Making the Switch, mom of 3, Alison Brown gives you permission to take your needs, hopes and dreams down from the shelf they’ve been collecting dust on since you became ‘mom’ and start putting them first – and not just permission, she’ll show you how to do it, guilt free.

Making The Switch from burnt out, out of shape, short tempered, and last on your own priority list to the energetic, fit, healthy mom you deserve to be is just pages away.

This book is for the moms out there who have lost themselves and wonder where they went, where their pre-baby body went, where their time went, and where their own happiness went.

The coming pages are for the moms out there who are tired and not the kind of tired a good night’s sleep can fix, the kind of tired that goes deep down into your soul and makes every day fell like an uphill battle.

It’s for the moms who are stressed, sad, lonely, frustrated, depressed, out of shape and trying so hard to still pour even though their cup is empty.

It’s for the moms who move the world for their children but have guilt lifting a finger or taking a moment for themselves.

If this is you, being a mom doesn’t have to be this way, not even for one more day. It’s time to enjoy life with kids rather than just try to survive it. It’s time to get your body in shape once and for all and have a healthy relationship with fitness, food and above all, yourself.

Alison shares her deeply personal struggles and how she managed to overcome them in an effort to help you do the same.

Making the Switch will help you look and feel your very best, get your body back without dieting and live your best life with kids.

Being the greatest version of yourself starts with putting yourself first and this book will help you do just that.
