Obarion (The Fallen Land Chronicles Book 1) by Justine Sparks

As the son of the Obarion clan’s infamous General, seventeen-year-old Atlas is well-acquainted with carrying the burden of high expectations. The tribes of the Westland have been at war for over a decade, and when Atlas is captured by his enemy clan, the Vedas, he discovers that he is more deeply tied to them than he could have ever known. He strikes up an unlikely alliance with a pair of Renegades taking refuge at the Vedas base. The Renegades—neither Obarion nor Vedas—refuse to take part in the conflict on either side of the war, and Atlas quickly learns that his prejudice is not nearly so founded as he might have thought. Atlas’ adventures put him in the path of gangs, cannibals, and margins of the Westland he hadn’t known had existed—or perhaps, had been hidden from him. His determination to acquire information that might give the Obarion an advantage in the war quickly evolves into a quest for truth, and Atlas soon must decide just how much he is willing to sacrifice for the sake of getting it.

Hunted (The Profiler Book 1) by Elizabeth Heiter

Terror stalks a small Virginia town.

FBI rising star, criminal profiler Evelyn Baine, knows how to think like a serial killer. But she’s never chased anyone like the Bakersville Burier, who hunts young women and displays them, half-buried, deep in the woods. As the body count climbs, Evelyn’s relentless pursuit of the killer puts her career—and her life—at risk. And the evil lurking in the Burier’s mind may be more than even she can unravel.

Terror is closer than she thinks…

The Bakersville Burier knows he’s got an FBI profiler on his trail. He knows who she is and where to find her. And he’s biding his time, because he’s planned a special punishment for Evelyn. She may have tracked other killers, but he vows to make this her last chase. This time it’s her turn to be hunted!

Never Trust an Earlby Maggi Andersen

Redcliffe Park, Northumberland, 1819

Dominic Thorne, the Earl of Redcliffe, arrives in Redcliffe village in the far north of England, to view his inheritance. The estate, Redcliffe Park, is miles from a decent town, and in need of extensive renovation.

A rake, says the squire’s wife, who heard all about him from her aunt in London. Rumors of Dominic’s scandalous lifestyle have quickly spread. His uncle, the former earl, was disliked. He failed to pay his debts. And it’s assumed his nephew is cut from the same cloth, or even worse, will ravage all the ladies in the village. It’s suspected his uncle distrusted banks, and stashed his wealth in a secret place somewhere on the estate.

Dominic wants to restore order to the estate to lease or sell it, then return to London. But his extremely attractive and capable housekeeper, Miss Olivia Jenner, makes him want more than a well-run house. He wants her in his life, in his bed. But she has plans of her own and doesn’t trust him.

Olivia Jenner has her own reasons for becoming the housekeeper, which she is not about to tell the earl. She loathed his uncle who destroyed her father’s life, and is determined to keep the rakish earl at arm’s length. But it becomes difficult for Olivia to hold on to her poor opinion of Dominic, after he toils in the fields with his plowman and works to improve the lives of those on his estate. Intrigued, Olivia can’t seem to stay away from him. She brings them lunch and hovers, admiring his fine physique and his straightforward manner with his workmen. He is not what she expected. But she cannot not lose her focus, she must find what she came for, then execute her plans for her future.

The house is broken into, and it’s believed they search for the money stashed away by his uncle. While Olivia and Dominic work together to discover who is behind it, a further threat appears. Someone wants Dominic dead.

The attraction between them grows to fever pitch. Dominic wants her, but will the independent and practical lady who considers the disparity in their births an impossible hurdle to overcome, ever agree?/

The Impoverished Dowryby Emily E K Murdoch

Coral de Petras is on the hunt for the perfect husband, and she doesn’t care who knows it.

In her third Season and with the shock of her father’s shipping business collapsing in disaster, Coral makes the hard decision to forgo a love match and fall back on the plan she had as a child.

Marry for money.

But if Coral’s giving up a love match, she doesn’t just want to settle for any gentleman: she has a list. A list of all the qualities she will demand from her future husband—and publishes it in all the newspapers.

A chance introduction with a duke (sadly not fulfilling all the points on her list) throws her completely off balance. Her dowry is gone, but doesn’t that mean she should demand the absolute best?

The Duke of Glaenarm is handsome, charming, devilishly devoted to her. And imperfect. Damn. At least, that is what Edward Barlow, Duke of Glaenarm, is informed by Coral at Almack’s.

Amused by the fiery haired beauty who demands a husband who meets her lofty and unrealistic expectations, Edward decides to trick her into affection for him—proving that even if she believes him imperfect, she can fall in love.

But the more time they spend discussing her potential suitors, neither Coral nor Edward can control the desire pulling them together—and as the de Petras family’s outrageous behavior continues to threaten their respectability, it’s becoming more and more difficult for Coral to understand what she wants from life.

A respectable, boring, wealthy suitor who completes her list…or an imperfect duke that makes her feel alive?

This full-length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after, no cliffhangers, and is part of a series that can be read in any order, but is best enjoyed in sequence.

Built for This: A Guide to Tackling New Dads' Top 16 Concerns About Pregnancy, Childbirth & Becoming a Father by Zach Tobin

“We’re Pregnant!” can either be the most exciting or the most terrifying words in the English language. For many men, they end up being both.

Are you a new or expecting dad whose top priority is being the best father you can be, but you’re not really certain what that looks like?

Do you wonder what will happen during delivery and how you can prepare ahead of time?

Are you asking yourself how you’re going to pay the hospital bills and provide for your growing family?

You may even be concerned that you don’t really “feel” like a father yet and worry you won’t be able to bond with or care for your newborn because you’ve never been “good with babies.”

Perhaps you’re dreading the lack of sex and wondering when you’ll get back to being intimate with your partner.

And, how about the loss of “freedom”, the chaos of having kids in the house, or the seemingly impossible task of balancing the demands of work with being there for your family?

These thoughts are valid, and they’re more common among new dads than you might realize. After all, you’re entering unknown territory, and fatherhood is a major change that will affect your life forever.

Even though you’re probably excited about becoming a dad, you’ll inevitably have doubts and anxieties—all first-time parents do!

No dad is totally prepared when he has his first child, but this book, Built for This, will help you overcome those fears and worries.

Zach is enthusiastic about fatherhood while helping you understand and tackle your fears, answering your hardest questions, and equipping you with the clear thinking, skill, and confidence you need to be an awesome father.

Unlike so many of the other books written for new dads, he skips the condescending ‘bro talk’ and draws on his real-world experience as a father of four to relate man-to-man. Inside, you’ll discover:

— The first thing you’re going to struggle with when your newborn arrives… and how to prepare for it
— How to slash your medical costs by 50% or more… and maybe even make money from your health insurance
— What it costs to raise a kid from birth through high school
— How to support your partner during labor — help her alleviate the pain of giving birth
— How to prepare in advance for delivery day… even if you know you can’t be present
— Why caring for a baby takes more than instinct… and how you can do it well
— Ways to stay connected and intimate with your partner before and after the baby arrives
— The science behind how dads bond with their newborns
— How to balance work and fatherhood so you can be there for your kid while still providing for your family
— Why babies don’t fix struggling relationships… and tips for what does (hint: this will make you a better father too)
— …And much more.

You may feel like you’re out of your depth now, but by following Zach’s advice, you’re taking a step in the right direction.

By the time your baby arrives, you’ll have the knowledge and skill that you need to embrace the most important role of your life with joy and confidence. Being a good dad is a choice… it’s not dictated by your income, IQ, or upbringing.

“Mark and Billy Jo Friessen are back with another nail biter” 4hoseks

Police Chief Mark Friessen and his wife, social worker Billy Jo McCabe, keep a watchful eye on their small island town in the Pacific Northwest.

Walter Crandall tells him the island is home to his five-year-old daughter and his ex-wife, who owns a local bar, and all he wants is to keep a low profile and be left alone to make amends for his mistakes. But there’s something about the man that Mark doesn’t trust, and when he and Billy Jo begin digging into Walter’s past and the charity he was part of, they uncover a deception so twisted they’re convinced it can’t possibly be true.

Indian Horse: A Novel by Richard Wagamese

A First Nations former hockey star looks back on his life as he undergoes treatment for alcoholism in this novel from the author of Dream Wheels.

Saul Indian Horse is a child when his family retreats into the woods. Among the lakes and the cedars, they attempt to reconnect with half-forgotten traditions and hide from the authorities who have been kidnapping Ojibway youth. But when winter approaches, Saul loses everything: his brother, his parents, his beloved grandmother—and then his home itself.

Alone in the world and placed in a horrific boarding school, Saul is surrounded by violence and cruelty. At the urging of a priest, he finds a tentative salvation in hockey. Rising at dawn to practice alone, Saul proves determined and undeniably gifted. His intuition and vision are unmatched. His speed is remarkable. Together they open doors for him: away from the school, into an all-Ojibway amateur circuit, and finally within grasp of a professional career. Yet as Saul’s victories mount, so do the indignities and the taunts, the racism and the hatred—the harshness of a world that will never welcome him, tied inexorably to the sport he loves.

Spare and compact yet undeniably rich, Indian Horse is at once a heartbreaking account of a dark chapter in our history and a moving coming-of-age story.

Finding Homeby Lorhainne Eckhart

What happens when a family loses everything and has no place to go?

Terrance Mack has a wife and two young boys. Never in a million years did he expect to find his family living on the streets, with no home, no jobs, in a position where everything they owned has been taken from them in the cruelest of ways. As the family struggles to stay together, they encounter a hard and unfriendly way of life, having to move from town to town, being harassed by the police and by locals, and confronting danger each day. Living on the streets is nothing as he expected.

All Terrance wants for his family is for someone to give them a chance—a chance for a new beginning, a roof over their heads, the opportunity to once again build a life without constant fear, having to look over their shoulders, feeling as if the rug will continue to be yanked out from under them again and again.

The worst is seeing the light in his wife’s eyes slowly diminish, along with the hope they once had. Terrance carries a constant weight, and every day brings a new challenge as doors close and they’re forced to move on. Even though they’ve stayed together, finding a place to stay has forced the family into survival mode, living one day at a time. The dignity Terrance once took for granted has become something he struggles to hold on to as he dreams of one day being able to have a peaceful night’s sleep.

Don’t You Dareby Weston Parker

He’s a playboy like no other…

The crown prince of New York City’s real estate industry. A pompous jerk who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and a camera in his face.

All of which makes him absolutely perfect.

Not for me, obviously, but for something much more important—to save the online fashion magazine I’m the editor of.

It’s too bad I can’t get within a mile of the guy.

Until I can.

Well, I can’t, but my best friend can and she’s willing to sneak me into her photo shoot so I can take my shot.

Honestly, I don’t have much hope. I’m no makeup artist and he pegs me as an imposter immediately.

As it turns out, however, I’m not the only one who needs something.

I might need a model with clout for the fashion show that could save my job, but hot stuff needs a little help too.

A lot, actually. He needs a fiancée, and he introduces me as her without warning.

As if I had a choice?

However, it’s only one date, and if I don’t do it, the magazine is as good as dead.

So, yes. Yes, of course I’ll fake it with him for one night.

What could possibly go wrong?

Every good girl deserves a bad boy. ~ Weston

The Cyanide Canary: A True Story of Injustice by Robert Dugoni

From Robert Dugoni, the #1 Kindle -bestselling author of MY SISTER’S GRAVE, and Environmental Protection Agency Special Agent Joseph Hilldorfer comes a true story of good and evil, greed and its consequences, and an elusive quest for justice…

Early in the morning on August 27, 1996, twenty year old Scott Dominguez showed up for an ordinary day at the fertilizing plant where he worked. By 11:00am, he was clinging to life, unconscious and suffocating from toxic exposure to cyanide in a tank that was supposed to contain only mud and water.

EPA Special Agent Joseph Hilldorfer was tasked with finding out what really happened on that horrific day in Soda Springs, Idaho, but the answers would not be easily uncovered. For more than four years Hilldorfer, his partner Bob Wojnicz, and a force of top-ranking U.S. attorneys struggled to expose the disturbing truths behind the tragedy, but would their efforts be enough to put the man responsible, Allan Elias, behind bars?

Dugoni, a New York Times bestselling author known for his heart-pounding legal thrillers, and Hilldorfer, the agent who lived and breathed the Dominguez case, pen a compulsively readable work that is every bit as enthralling as fiction, yet is alarmingly true.

City of Forts by Jason Beech

A teenage boy must grow up fast in an adult world. It’s violent, and it’s coming for him…

Ricky Nardilo, a not-so-typical 13-year-old, dreams of freedom from family responsibility to run wild with his friends and the girl who’s stolen his heart. But getting his wish comes with deadly consequences when he and his friends converge on an abandoned house, fall through the floorboards, and land on top of a dead body.

He’s caught in a menacing trap with his friends and, as with any teenager, making the right decisions in an adult situation doesn’t always turn out well. If he makes one bad move, he will end up with the wrong kind of freedom.

The Sensitive Stone: A Transformational Journey to Discovering your Inner Rock by Tamika Thomas

In the eyes of many, people who are too emotional are coined too sensitive. They do not have a “backbone” and need to have “thick skin”. While this is true that we are “too sensitive”, it is also true that we have this amazing ability to constantly overextend ourselves to help others through their trials and tribulations. We love too hard, lose ourselves in other people’s ideas of us, and exhaust ourselves, succumbing to emotional and mental instability such as having meltdowns, anxiety, and anger issues.

This “journeying” is for those who are ready to transition from being the go-to doormat to becoming the STONE that courageously and unapologetically says “NO!” It is for those who have reached their limits and are ready to cultivate and master the art of their own truth and happiness.

Part 1: Being a Sensitive one—You discover the patterns leading to the detrimental habits that caused you to lose yourself.

Part 2: Becoming a Sensitive Stone—you learn to “toughen up” while maintaining your compassion.

Part 3: Balancing the Stone—with any power there is balance that must be exercised otherwise you risk losing yourself again.

Part 4: Affirmations and Practices—These little gems remind you of your efforts no matter how small they are and help you continue to grow into the self you are meant to be!

As one embarks on this journey, they are still maintaining their compassionate nature, but through their newfound inner strength, they will live confidently, boldly, and peacefully.

Here’s to you!

My God My Man: Find True Love in a World Filled with Lust by Sandra Leslie White

“We live in a world awash in love stories. Most of them are lies. They are not love stories at all – they are lust stories, sex fantasy stories, domination stories. From the cradle we are fed on lies about love.” – Introduction to Hosea by Eugene Peterson, The Message Bible

My God My Man is based upon my own adventure into the Book of Hosea, the Old Testament Prophet of Love. It details a journey I embarked upon one hot summer day on a beach in South Texas. Little did I know that I was about to be rescued from a lifetime of lust stories, and invited into a lasting story about love.

God calls Himself “Ishi” in Hosea 2:16 which is the Hebrew name for “my man.” It is a term of endearment that Hebrew women use to lay claim to their loving husbands. Why is God calling Himself a name my eyes had never seen, my ears had never heard, and my heart had never received?

As I studied more and more about the enigmatic Ishi, I found myself meandering down a path where where faith and scholarship walked hand in hand. It was on this journey where lust was lost, with all the pain from my past, and where love was found, with all the promises for my future.

By embracing the truths within My God My Man, I am certain you will discover a pathway for healing your hurting heart. You will leave a world filled with lustful lies far behind, and enter into a life overflowing with lasting love.

It is a journey worth taking. I promise. He is who He says He is: My God My Man.

— Who are we and how is our divine spark and soul structured?
— How, where, and why did we come into existence?
— How is existence structured?
— How can we embody our own Truth, our Soul?

— How can we experience the Garden of Eden resonance in our heart?

✓ These cosmological mysteries unveil themselves and guide you through them via meditation and initiation, infusing the cellular memory of your body, awakening the memory of your divine potential and the God/Goddess energy in your heart.

✓ A DNA upgrade stirs within the true story of our soul’s creation and dormant creational codes.

✓ Together with the soul of Earth, you undertake this journey side by side, modelling the New Earth Light Body as she unfolds her sacred geometry, collapses her dimensions, and ignites her inner starlight, transitioning into Star Consciousness. We awaken our Diamond Heart.

✓ Surrender and the multidimensional and encoded words will ignite within. Universal and timeless, it reveals the immeasurable depths to which we as souls are exposed to evolve towards Cosmic Ascension.

This Light Tablet stirs our greater soul identity and, for Self-Realisation, can draw parts of us, reflections, from the outside world.

The Little Woodsby A.G. Mock

Do you believe in Demons? You will.

A HORROR STORY INSPIRED BY REAL EVENTS

A group of boyhood friends in the summer of 1977. An annual rite of passage in a dark and alluring Pennsylvania wood. The channeling of a malevolent Presence.

And a childhood game about to go terribly wrong…

Two brothers in the summer of 1995, reunited by the unspeakable nightmare of their past. A bewitching tavern proprietress and psychic intuitive from New Orleans. The revelation of an apocryphal prophesy.

And a harrowing return to the woods haunted by something far more dangerous than a memory…

…

If you like the coming-of-age movie Stand by Me, are horror-stricken by Golding’s Lord of the Flies, or delight in the terror of Stephen King’s IT or Pet Sematary, then you’ll love The Little Woods.

Frighteningly suspenseful and emotionally charged from page one, The Little Woods unfolds through two parallel-running storylines—each chapter alternating between the horrifying events of 1977 and their chilling repercussions in 1995.

When both converge, the result is a taut and twisted climax of biblical proportions and an ending certain to leave you as satisfyingly on edge as you are shocked!

Will Ian exorcise the darkness that haunts him, or will it gain the power to consume us all?

Let Me Inby Ali Parker

He said I couldn’t do it, but he was wrong.

An old professor at UCLA promised me that I would make nothing of myself, so I made sure I did.

To the tune of billions. I’m only a little cocky about it.

Yachts, parties, and one-night events pretty much spell out my life.

And all of it works well until I run into a beauty I can’t get out of my head.

But we’re keeping it friendly and casual until we aren’t.

There’s just one problem. Her old man hates me.

And for good reason. He was my UCLA professor.

He’s dead set against me becoming anything important to his little girl, but the old man’s got it all backward.

I’m not looking to make an example out of our passion or prove a point.

This isn’t about hit it and quit it.

His daughter is mine, and he might kick me out, but she’s letting me all the way in.

You Don’t Need a Ph.D. to Find G-O-Dby James Finke

Christians – are you looking for an 800-page academic dissertation loaded with religious, scientific, and technical jargon?

If so, you’re in the wrong place, friend.

The information presented in those publications is amazing, but most believers don’t read them, let alone skeptics who are seeking the truth…

That’s where this book comes in.

Believers like you say it’s easy to read, and difficult to put down. And those readers run the gamut – from Pastors, ministry leaders, and apologetics enthusiasts to church youth groups and brand-new Christians.

This “page-turner” presents the evidence that God exists, and Jesus is Lord. It explains seemingly complex topics using everyday language, relatable life stories and analogies.

You’ll learn things like:

— Science is a process we use to learn about the universe God created. It’s not a religion unto itself.
— Humans are created by God. We are not blind accidents of nature.
— Other religious leaders have claimed to hear from God. Jesus claimed to BE God.
— The Bible is the most scrutinized text in history and it’s not close.
— “Kindness is all that matters” answers none of the important questions in life. The Good News of Jesus Christ answers all of them.

For Christians who are new to or perhaps have never even heard the term Christian Apologetics, get ready to level up. Your personal faith, and your ability to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with others will never be the same.

For pastors, ministry leaders, and apologetics enthusiasts, this book will fit right into that open spot on your evangelism toolbelt.

Are you ready? Let’s talk God.

Living in Cleveland With the Ghost of Joseph Stalinby Marc Sercomb

Calvin’s life is falling apart at the seams. He’s a misfit and loner whose only friends are famous dead people. He loves polka music and Westerns and sometimes wonders what it would be like to kiss a girl. His con man father is in Florida looking for his bipolar runaway mother. His cousin Buck is abducted and experimented on by aliens. The lady next door wants to coach him in the ways of love. His pastor thinks he’s headed straight for Hell. His English teacher thinks he’s a savant. The school psychologist wants to have him committed. His shrink thinks he’s just plain nuts. Sometimes, Calvin believes it too.

***

MEET ADRIAN HELL.

A deadly, unorthodox assassin who is plagued by the guilt he carries with him over the death of his family. Operating to his own moral standards, fueled by a passionate sense of what’s right and wrong, he travels the country, taking out people he believes deserve his bullets.

In TRUE CONVICTION, he takes a job in Heaven’s Valley, Nevada, where a local crime family wants to send a message by killing a businessman who has gone back on a deal, costing the mob boss millions of dollars. But when Adrian arrives and tracks down his target, he quickly discovers a much larger threat looming in the shadows, and it isn’t long before he finds himself in the crosshairs of multiple adversaries. With help from his best friend, Josh Winters, he uses his skills to learn more about the other players in this dangerous game. But when the stakes are raised, he’s pushed beyond his limits as he fights to prevent a terrorist attack that would act as a catalyst for another world war.

In HUNTER’S GAMES,, he travels to San Francisco, commissioned to take out a government official who’s found himself on the wrong side of the wrong people. The job goes as planned, but before Adrian can leave the scene, he’s taken into custody by the FBI. Grace Chambers, a straight-talking special agent, asks him to help bring down a terrorist known as The Shark, who’s responsible for several recent attacks on the city. But things aren’t what they seem, and when the truth behind Adrian’s involvement is revealed, so too is the full extent of The Shark’s horrifying plans. Forced into a deadly game of cat and mouse, our unlikely hero goes bullet for bullet with an unseen enemy, as the fate of thousands of innocent people hangs in the balance. With time running out, and the body count rising, Adrian must do whatever it takes to stop his adversary before it’s too late.

In ONE LAST BULLET, he decides it’s finally time to go after the man who took away everything he ever loved. Having lived with the guilt over the death of his family for over a decade, he feels he must put his demons to rest and seek the closure he so desperately craves. But from the moment he arrives in Pittsburgh, his increasingly reckless attempts to destroy everything Wilson Trent has built only leads to further suffering. With his best friend by his side, and blinded by his thirst for vengeance, Adrian must take on Trent’s entire criminal empire in order to have his revenge.

Wanderer’s Songby P.E. Padilla

The one to crush the darkness…

Nearly three thousand years ago, the Prophet penned the Song of Prophecy, foretelling a time when darkness would engulf the world and threaten all life. The Malatirsay would come, the Chosen One to save the world of Dizhelim, wielding magic unseen in centuries. To prepare for this future time, the Hero Academy was built, its sole purpose to train the One. But it has lost its focus throughout the ages, not watching vigilantly for the signs of the end.

The time has arrived and the animaru have come, dark creatures of un-life, intent on snuffing out all living things and light itself. But where is the Malatirsay?

Aeden Tannoch, trained as a highland clan warrior, raised by the Gypta traveling people, could be the One, but he cannot use the promised magic. Yet. In the midst of the dark swarm invading his world, he must travel to the Hero Academy to seek the aid and tutelage of the masters there. The enemy has caught his scent and pursues him.

Fake It Real Goodby Weston Parker

My younger brother hates me… he’s getting married.

And of course, my mother is going to have a field day with me still being a bachelor.

But love is for the birds. I don’t have time for that madness.

So, a fake date from an agency will work in a pinch.

Hope this poor damsel in distress is up for having to meet my wretched family.

If she survives, I’ll have to give her a bonus. Or hire her for my lonelier nights.

Much to my surprise, she’s not at all what I thought she would be.

Curvy, bold, hilarious – everything I want in my life.

This isn’t good.

Why in the world would a woman like her sell her time to a man like me?

Surely there’s more to her story than meets the eyes.

Not my problem. I just need one thing from the delicious beauty.

Fake it real good, baby. Fake it good.

Supernatural Manifestationby Dr. Stacia Pierce

Want to Easily Manifest Whatever You Want?
Learn the Systems and Techniques You Need to Transform Your Goals and Dreams into Reality.

I finally found a way to describe my secret sauce–The methods I use to manifest my big business goals, accomplish the impossible and extract my grandiose ideas from my mind to manifestation.

I’ve been able to bust through all the obstacles and rise in the midst of defeat, disappointment and despair.

The one thing that has been consistent in my success journey is my Manifestation Methods for Supernatural Success.

I’ve gotten million-dollar ideas, made million-dollar connections, took the right actions at the right time and it has resulted in my accomplishing my annual 101 goals year after year.

For the last 15 years I’ve taught my business clients the practical steps to building a business—and of course I didn’t hold back on showing them my “secret sauce” the manifestation methods that have taken me from bottom to the top of my industry and they have seen the same kind of supernatural results in their lives!

Now that I’ve been using my methods for over 30 years, it felt it was time to share my system with the world.

So finally, I’m sharing my 8 Supernatural Manifestation Methods that I have used on repeat in every area of my life to accomplish my wildest dreams and big ideas.

Within 30 days of teaching these principles in a private workshop setting, the attendees started experiencing the Supernatural manifestation in their own lives:

One woman manifested her first brand new car.

There’s a doctor whose business and fame skyrocketed, just weeks after the seminar, as he became one of the most sought-after medical experts in the nation. He also manifested close to a million in one year after applying the manifestation methods.

There’s a salesman who had been struggling at meeting his quota prior to learning my manifestation methods. Once he started implementing, he became the #1 sales rep for his company, generating six-figures a month in personal income.

In case we haven’t met before, I’m Stacia Pierce and I’ve been a manifestation
magnet for years now … but it wasn’t always like that.
I had to learn the same skills I teach in this book to go from not seeing the results
I wanted to manifesting things I never thought possible like $100K days and spots
on “The Steve Harvey Show,” Arise 360 TV, ABC, FOX, CW and NBC.

Known as the “Whole Life Coach,” I use my skills and experiences to empower
women to freely and smartly chase their greatest desires with confidence and
knowledge.

Are you ready to be one of them?

In this book you’ll discover:
— My 8 Supernatural Powers that you can activate in your own life and get your desires.
— How one woman went from dreaming about travel to manifesting 36 trips in one year.
— How a couple manifested their dream home and had it fully decorated in only 90 days.
— How I started a new business and manifest 300K in one year. (My first 5K deal came after saying YES spontaneously to attend an event.)
— How one of my clients left his job and manifested $54K in one day.
— How another client broke through his limiting mindset, tapped into his supernatural powers, and revived his sales career, now earning multiple six-figures annually.

In my experience, I have found that supernatural success comes from taking fast action. You can’t just know what to do, but how to do it.

In this book I’m giving you what you need to do to manifest supernaturally, Why you can trust the process and allow it to work for you and How to take fast action and get results.

Let’s manifest the Supernatural Success Life you’ve been dreaming of!

Ballerina: A Novelby Edward Stewart

Christine has lived a sheltered life, secure in the love of her family. But her privileged upbringing conceals a devastating secret.
Two teenage dancers, one chance to make it. From the thrill and terror of auditions through years of meticulous training to landing a coveted spot in a professional company, Stephanie and Christine relentlessly pursue their ambitions. As they give their all to dance, they become inseparable–until they are torn apart by their passion for the same man, a brilliant Russian dancer whose seductive, mercurial temperament will have unforeseen consequences for them all.

Big Bad Baby Daddyby Ali Parker

The Billion Dollar Baby Daddy.

You’ve got to be kidding me. But nope, that’s what the world calls him.

He’s the king of baby products and yet, he’s a bachelor who isn’t good with babies at all.

The man is scared of children. However, that’s where I come into the picture.

Fixing things, people, and situations is what I do for a living. And I’m the best.

The problem? The hottie doesn’t want my help.

In fact, the sexy, charm-your-pants-off billionaire with the tailored suits and a seductively magnetic personality is vehemently opposed to my interference at all.

He’s “got this.” Right…

But here’s the deal, I’m not working for him. I’m working “on” him.

I just never expected to have a secret to share. Like a bonus from the job I wasn’t expecting.

I’m pregnant with the Baby Daddy’s Baby.

So I save him, but who the heck is coming to save me?

Dream Trailby Thomas J. Prestopnik

Eric Travers never imagined taking a three-week hiking trip through the wilderness. At twenty-seven, and several months after an unexpected breakup with his girlfriend, he was comfortably cocooned in his desk job at the Crandall Insurance Agency in Binghamton, NY, biding his time, yearning for spring and waiting for his life to blossom once again.

Then the weird dreams started. Images of lush, tree-covered mountains, ghostly apparitions and shamrocks inscribed with a puzzling symbol began to invade his sleep. He encountered a mysterious trio of fellow hikers and heard a vaguely familiar song from the 1970s playing in the background while walking in long, lazy circles above the treetops. He was driving himself crazy trying to decipher his nighttime visions yet felt drawn to a trail he knew nothing about, though all the while wondering if he was simply going mad.

So, he decided that the only way to solve this mystery was to temporarily leave his job, sling on a backpack and literally follow the trail to wherever it might lead. But after meeting others along the way who shared many aspects of his unusual story, the mystery only deepened as each footstep drew them closer to their destination and to a shadowy figure that suddenly haunted their latest round of dreams while on the trail.

Though he can’t claim to be even a novice backpacker, Thomas J. Prestopnik was easily inspired by others who are and wrote this backpacking novel with a dash of mystery to fulfill his true passion, telling a story. He is also the author of several other novels including “Nicholas Raven and the Wizards’ Web”, a Tolkien-inspired epic fantasy in three volumes.

The Women of Chateau Lafayetteby Stephanie Dray

The International Bestseller!

Most castles are protected by men. This one by women.

A founding mother…
1774. Gently-bred noblewoman Adrienne Lafayette becomes her husband, the Marquis de Lafayette’s political partner in the fight for American independence. But when their idealism sparks revolution in France and the guillotine threatens everything she holds dear, Adrienne must renounce the complicated man she loves, or risk her life for a legacy that will inspire generations to come.

A daring visionary…
1914. Glittering New York socialite Beatrice Chanler is a force of nature, daunted by nothing—not her humble beginnings, her crumbling marriage, or the outbreak of war. But after witnessing the devastation in France firsthand, Beatrice takes on the challenge of a lifetime: convincing America to fight for what’s right.

A reluctant resistor…
1940. French school-teacher and aspiring artist Marthe Simone has an orphan’s self-reliance and wants nothing to do with war. But as the realities of Nazi occupation transform her life in the isolated castle where she came of age, she makes a discovery that calls into question who she is, and more importantly, who she is willing to become.

Intricately woven and powerfully told, The Women of Chateau Lafayette is a sweeping novel about duty and hope, love and courage, and the strength we take from those who came before us.

The Granddaughtersby Margaret Belle

Underestimated by crooks and cops alike, three “over-the-hill” women become formidable amateur sleuths when they find themselves entangled in a decades-old, unsolved crime.

Mystery writer Ellie Russo invites her cousins Sandy McCabe and Franny Baker to join her, as she travels to picturesque Orange Lake in Newburgh, New York to research a story for her newest book.

Looking forward to staying in the lake house their grandmother once owned, the mini-reunion turns dangerous for these “women of an age”, when they become targets of the criminals they seek to expose.

Having overcome personal loss, and suffering from ailments not uncommon to older women, Ellie, Sandy, and Franny find that age has not diminished their strength or personal capabilities, and that they are willing to do whatever it takes to protect each other – including murder.
