My Name Is Joe by Stefan Bourque

Two lost souls – one at the end of a journey, and another struggling to begin…

Meet Joe. Everything about him is average – until a routine medical test returns a shocking diagnosis and his doctor advises him to get his affairs in order. Thrust into the unknown, he is left to contemplate what he has done with his life and discovers a sad truth. Somewhere along the way, thinking there would be more time, he let his dreams erode beneath the wheels of the daily grind and he has nothing to show for his time on earth.

Inundated with guilt over his wasted existence, Joe plans an extraordinary play at redemption, after which he plans to end his life while he still has his dignity. Everything goes as planned until he meets Rebecca, a young, single mother who is struggling with her own demons of guilt.

An unlikely friendship forms between the two as they come to realize their own redemption lies within the other – Joe must teach Rebecca how to hold on and Rebecca must teach Joe how to let go. But first, they must find the courage to trust one another.

A profoundly moving novel about the power of human kindness, My Name Is Joe examines the unspoken thoughts and fears we all share, and introduces Stefan Bourque as a gifted – and irresistible – storyteller.

Piper – The Casanova Clubby Ali Parker

The Casanovas.

Twelve of the world’s most eligible bachelors are personally invited to take a seat on this exclusive, private match-making club. (Piper: Sharing is caring?)

The purpose? To find the perfect wife. Ten women are considered, but only one is chosen. Each of these men are after one lucky girl’s heart. Vetting these ladies is a year long event. Contests. Forms. Interviews. Demonstrations. Galas. (Piper: All of which I missed. Darn.)

The prize? One million dollars or a ring from the bachelor of her choice after the yearlong mutli-engagement period is over. Lady’s choice. (Piper: Show me the money.)

The problem? Me. I need cash more than anyone could possibly understand, and there’s no way in hell I’d ever be invited to woo twelve men for a chunk of change. (Piper: Good thing I know the coordinator.)

The promise? To save my family from losing their house, their business and their hope. All I need is a shot at the position. (Piper: Determination, haircare products and a strut like I own the place will do the rest.)

Piper: These boys are in for a treat. Maybe. Possibly. What did I just get myself into?

The Casanova Club – Only one can win her heart.

Married to the Rakeby Samantha Holt

Wallflowers and rakes do seldom mix well. Miss Chloe Larkin is completely assured of that. Especially when said rake is a member of the Waverly family–the people responsible for a feud that has been ongoing since practically the dawn of time.
But he comes offering a deal…
The centuries-old feud between the Larkins and the Waverlys has taken its toll. Brook Waverly wants this fight solved. Now. His ageing father cannot take much more of the stress and he's determined the problem shall be resolved before he comes to inherit.
So he needs her help…
Chloe is distrustful of Mr.Waverly–and rightly so. Not only is he her lifelong enemy but he has a reputation that would make the most experienced of women blush. And boy does he make this wallflower blush! However, she has little interest in continuing the silly feud and, with her little brother set to inherit one day and her father's failing health, the sooner it is all over, the better.
Working with the handsome, and far too charming Mr.Waverly to get their fathers to come to an agreement is…interesting. Especially when he seems to be less concerned with ending the feud and more interested in her. Can she really trust him or is this just another way for his family to get their revenge on hers?

Who Am I?: Discover How Perfect You Are by Lucie LeBlanc

Dear Parents,
Did you know that: Children are born Perfect.
That we become what we think about.
You are your child’s most valuable teacher.
We all have a SELF-IMAGE. It is how we see ourselves. It is “CONDITIONING.” It is a “PROGRAMMING”. It is a PARADIGM.
It operates like an “AUTO-PILOT”.

The PARADIGMS are past down from one generation to another. The PARADIGMS are created by the environment and our culture.
Our mother tongue is a PARADIGM. A child’s mind is like a fertile garden. By using a straightforward method, you can program your child. This method never fails…

This book is intended for you & your child,
To begin the process of creating a winner SELF-IMAGE. Read this book to your child as often as you can.

The concept of Conscious Mind and Subconscious mind is not a familiar concept to most people. To understand better, I recommend reading, studying the system described in my parental guide: “Ordinary Parents Raising Extraordinary Children.” A parental guide to unlocking your child’s inner strength to full self-expression.

As a parent of young children, there are two things that you must understand that when a child is born, the subconscious mind is wide open. So, everything the child hears, sees, tastes, smells, and touches are planted in their subconscious mind. This goes on for four to five years until the conscious faculties have time to develop.

Whatever has been presented to the child’s mind will eventually develop since the subconscious mind must accept everything that is presented to it; it has no ability to reject. It is the most important stage in life as it is during this time that the child is being conditioned. The child’s conditioning regarding the his or her confidence, learning ability, relationship building, and concept of health and wealth will determine the child’s future.
