The Wrong Unit: A Novelby Rob Dircks

I DON’T KNOW WHAT THE HUMANS ARE SO CRANKY ABOUT. Their enclosures are large, they ingest over a thousand calories per day, and they’re allowed to mate. Plus, they have me.
An Autonomous Servile Unit, housed in a mobile/bipedal chassis. I do my job well: keep the humans healthy and happy.
“Hey you.”
Heyoo. That’s my name, I suppose. It’s easier for the humans to remember than 413s98-itr8. I guess I’ve gotten used to it.
—
Rob Dircks, bestselling author of Where the Hell is Tesla?, has a “unit” with a problem: how to deliver his package, out in the middle of nowhere, with nothing to guide him. Oh, and with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance. It’s a science fiction tale of technology gone haywire, unlikely heroes, and the nature of humanity. (Woah. That last part sounds deep. Don’t worry, it’s not.)

Emily’s mother, a wealthy socialite, quickly distances herself from her troubled daughter, but in an attempt to salvage the family name, hires world-renowned psychiatrist, Daniel Lieberman, to assist in Emily’s defense. The famed doctor, an aging, lonely psychiatrist with an addiction to sugar, caffeine, and understanding the human mind, quickly becomes sympathetic to Emily and her tortured childhood.

Together, Lieberman and Emily explore the frightening and twisted world of her damaged psyche, uncovering the complex reasons behind the young woman’s self-hatred and disconnected self-image.

They develop an abiding partnership, weaving through unexpected revelations and disturbing secrets. Of particular interest to the doctor is Emily’s strange attachment to the imaginary girls she sketches–and is driven to personify.

The secrets hidden in Emily’s mind could help with her defense–or confirm the death penalty case against her. But Lieberman senses other secrets hide within the patient’s mind, particularly the events surrounding the unexplained death of her twin sister, Penelope.

A gripping, twisting tale of psychological intrigue, Pages in the Wind enters the mostly uncharted realm of the human mind, seeking truth buried deep within Emily’s subconscious. Lieberman can help her uncover her past, but Emily is the one who has to face it–or remain damaged forever.

Prison Break: Vanquish the Victim, Own Your Obstacles, and Lead Your Lifeby Jason Goldberg

"Jason Goldberg has given us a way to break out of our victimized lives forever in this energetic, inspiring, entertaining read."
-Steve Chandler, Author of Crazy Good

————
Writing this book is quite possibly the most selfish thing I have ever done.

After living the first 30 years of my life as a Prisoner of circumstance – blaming everyone and everything around me for my hopelessness, my anger, my stress and even my obesity; waiting to finally get a " break" and confidently proclaiming that my victim personality was permanent and " just the way I am" (I'm sure none of you reading this can relate) - I finally discovered the simple and powerful distinction that helped me transition from a helpless, exhausted, overwhelmed and overcommitted Prisoner to a creative, conscious, and courageous Self-Leader.

While it's true that as a speaker, trainer and coach, I could tell you I wrote Prison Break because I was so passionate about sharing with you what I know has been THE most pivotal piece of my personal transformation, it's only half of the self-serving story.

I also wrote it because it is the book I needed to read (and will no doubt refer to for the rest of my life for a gentle reminder…or forty) to help me see through the lies, myths, and fundamental misunderstandings I held for so long about how the world worked. (Spoiler: It never seemed to " work" for me until I developed this new understanding; these new tools).

What you will find in this book is not an instruction manual but rather a destruction manual–breaking down the self-imposed walls and barriers that I worked so tirelessly to erect over the first few decades of my life and that I have seen affect so many of the 1000's of people I have met, trained and coached.

It will read more like a private diary of stories, examples and distinctions than a traditional, advice filled, step-by-step, one-size-fits-all self-help book. I hope you enjoy the tour of my sarcastic, irreverent and incredibly honest mind.

Once you learn the power, the possibilities and the potential for prosperity inherent in choosing Self-Leadership, you will be able to:

* Access a simple, life-changing framework to change your state in any given moment, regardless of the circumstances you are facing

* Know how to USE your most stressful and serious thoughts to move you forward instead of holding you back or keeping you stuck

* Tap into your greatest levels of creativity to solve problems and create opportunities

* Take consistent, purposeful, intentional action in the face of fear, uncertainty and procrastination

* Deal with haters, naysayers and " difficult" people without getting triggered or losing your mind

* Experience more fun, joy, fulfillment and happiness in your daily life

* Overcome your biggest challenges without all of the stress, strain and struggle.

I've occupied the guards, cut power to the fences, unlocked the cell doors, and slipped you a copy of your escape route to freedom.

Let the Prison Break begin!

The Shackled Scribesby Lars Teeney

Futharkia is a city built upon the layout of an ancient rune shape, and a foundation of slavery. The Broxanians have been enslaved by the Olgoikhorkian Masters to exploit the Broxanian talent for rune-scribing. In exchange, the rune-scribes are compensated with the sweet, golden liquid, Ichor, that the giant worm-like Olgoikhorkians secrete from their glands. The Ichor also happens to be highly addictive and psychoactive. The system has worked for millennia.

However, the Great Fern Jungle that surrounds Futharkia is dying, being bleached white by some unseen force. Coupled with the fact that the simian-like Fern Lice have been hunted to near extinction to provide for Futharkia’s ever-increasing demand for food, Futharkia’s ecosystem is near collapse. It is amid this setting that Cyesko Limariar, an aging rune-scribe makes one last attempt at greatness to lift himself out of poverty, even if by fraudulent means.

Isle of Bones (Demon Isle Witches Clean Read Cut): Sweet and Romantic Supernatural Fun (We Witches Three Book 1)by Starla Silver

We Witches Three, Book One: Isle of Bones. A Demon Isle Witches Clean Read Cut. Sweet and Romantic Supernatural Fun…

It’s tough being a Howard Witch. Especially when a host of devious supernatural creatures are determined to wreak havoc on your daily life making it impossible to have one. And all over a magical power source lost long ago, which every villainous supernatural being wants to find, and control.

Something the Howard Witches will not permit as long as they’re around to stop them. But there are only three witches left from a once thriving family. Charlie, the eldest, a werewolf, and self-elected leader of the siblings. Michael, the middle child, an empath and death reader who’d rather leave the job to someone else. And Melinda, the youngest, who’s currently living under self-inflicted house arrest after her magical inheritance kicked in- the gift of prophetic dreams of people about to die- which she blames herself for not understanding and therefore, she’s the reason her parents are dead.

The one upside to her imprisonment, spending countless hours with vampire, William Wakefield. A family friend and protector for almost two-hundred years. He’s refined on the surface, the monster lurking cautiously underneath. His emerald eyes are something to get lost in, his icy fortitude hardening him to the world. But to Melinda, he’s a best friend and confidant.

The vampire is also the star of many a light night fantasy, and any other girl would enjoy the nightly thrill of a vampire crush invading her dreams. But not Melinda as her dreams have a tendency to come true. Although typically, they don’t include the handsome vampire she’s crushing on but rather horrifying visions of people about to die.

But she cannot stay under self-inflicted house arrest forever. And if her brothers or William get their choice in the matter, Melinda will be out of the house partying with her friends, giving her affections to a human, not a vampire, and digging into her role as a witch.

A role Charlie lives for and one Michael would rather live without. Nevertheless, when duty calls, usually from the local sheriff needing help with some tourist who’s gotten themselves into trouble, love and life screech to a stop, and duty takes over.

Such is the case when the sheriff needs help with an unsolved murder investigation; one she fears has a supernatural cause. To assist her in the case, she calls upon the skills of The Howard Witches.

However, what they learn might be more than any of them can deal with, or accept. Worse yet, they fear what this discovery will do to Melinda as it returns them all to the core of her self-imprisonment.

Back to the lives, she could not save…

The Art of Makeupby Cynthia Reynolds Oelking

This book is written to assist you in the “art of makeup”. Over the years, I have learned a great deal about makeup from wonderful books and magazines, professional makeup artists, and classes, as well as my personal experiences. I took one-on-one makeup and color certification classes from renowned professional British makeup artist and former model Terri Allen. Terri has worked for top model agencies and had her own successful business in both the makeup and fashion industries in Europe, the Far East and the Middle East. I learned from the best! This book is meant to be a guide that represents my ideas about applying and wearing makeup. Nothing is written in stone! Over time, you will discover what works best for you and your lifestyle. My approach to applying makeup is simple, classic, and workable. Makeup can be natural and polished for daytime and become glamorous and sophisticated for evening with a few strokes of a brush. Makeup is fun and the best part is you can wash it off and start again to change your look!
Loving makeup as I do, I can remember the first fashion and beauty teen magazine I brought the summer I was about 13 years old. I can still remember a fabulous nail polish called “”Orange Gone Wild” that was being touted as the color of the moment. Many nail polish bottles in the 60′s came with long finials on the top of the bottle cover, and I thought it so very glamorous! I could not wait to purchase my very first polish at the drugstore! That single purchase opened the door to for some wonderful and not-so-wonderful experiences in the ever-changing world of beauty! Although orange is not a particularly good color for me, I still look forward to summer, sandals and orangey shades of nail polish.
Makeup gives a women confidence – yet so many women will say to me that they simply do not have the time or the desire to apply makeup. Believe it or not, makeup is beneficial to both your skin and your self-confidence. Women who wear makeup are seen as more polished and up-to-date. Like it or not, people respond to you in the first 3 seconds of meeting and how you look and present yourself to the world plays the biggest role in that first impression. Makeup plays a vital role in that total look. Think about it – a woman can be wearing the most beautiful, expensive suit in her closet, gorgeous shoes and jewelry, but without the finishing touch of makeup she will not look finished or polished- something will be missing! And while someone may not be able to put his or her finger on quite what it is, that first impression picture is incomplete. First impressions are the most important and lasting ones and happen instantly. Now, before you disagree and say people should like me for the person I am inside, I want you to know I agree with you completely. However, they will first size you up, right or wrong based on the physical package. And that can be bad enough to stop them from wanting to get to know the real you inside. This might be harsh, but it’s true. You are packaging yourself for presentation to the world, your world, regardless of how you wrap yourself. Just a few minutes spent on doing your makeup is all it takes.
Makeup can lift your spirits when you are down, bring out another side of your personality, and boost your self-esteem. All of this in a bottle, tube, or pot! Makeup does not have to be overwhelming or time-consuming. With the proper tools and the right products, in a matter of a few minutes a day, you can look your absolute best and face the world with confidence, knowing that you are putting your best foot forward.

Scary Close: Dropping the Act and Finding True Intimacyby Donald Miller

After decades of failed relationships and painful drama, Donald Miller decided he’d had enough. Impressing people wasn’t helping him connect with anyone. He’d built a life of public isolation, yet he dreamed of meaningful relationships. So at forty years old he made a scary decision: to be himself no matter what it cost.

From the author of Blue Like Jazz comes a book about the risk involved in choosing to impress fewer people and connect with more, about the freedom that comes when we stop acting and start loving. It is a story about knocking down old walls to create a healthy mind, a strong family, and a satisfying career. And it all feels like a conversation with the best kind of friend: smart, funny, true, important.

Scary Close is Donald Miller at his best.

Revealed to Himby Jen Frederick

Self-imprisoned by the fear of the anonymous stalkers who threaten her life, video-game writer Natalie Beck now only dreams of the world outside her pink-bedecked apartment. Trusting people again is off-limits. But the more time Jake spends with her, the more his professional commitment evolves from simple duty to scorching desire. While deeply sensual sparks ignite between the two, the danger outside circles closer. Will Jake’s intense devotion be enough to save Natalie? Or will she turn away from the one man willing to do anything to save her?

The Disembodiedby Anthony Hains

Thirteen-year-old Griffin Rinaldi seems like a normal kid. He plays basketball at the Y and he’s just learning to talk to girls. But Griffin doesn’t feel normal. He’s been diagnosed with Depersonalization Disorder–he feels disconnected from his body, and at times, he doesn’t know if he’s dead or alive. And it seems to be getting worse.

Following the brutal death of his abusive father, Griffin is haunted by a red-haired kid only he can see and who wants him to do things he doesn’t understand. Griffin’s only sources of support are his grandfather, Soren – a regional author of Outer Banks ghost stories – and his same-aged cousin, Tanner, a boy coping with his own troubled life.

When a rare blizzard strikes the Outer Banks, Griffin recognizes the red-haired boy as a vengeful specter from Soren’s tales. To make matters worse, his well-meaning aunt has convinced his mother he’s under some sort of spiritual attack. Unsure if the mysterious boy is a symptom of his disorder or an entity with evil intent, Griffin finds himself in a struggle to save his life, his sanity and maybe his very soul.

Broken Identityby Ashley Williams

Drake Pearson, a narrow-minded 18-year-old barely enduring Missouri’s heat, is tired of feeling empty. Living conditions are about as cozy as a cardboard box, on account of his alcoholic father who can find nothing better to do than argue relentlessly with him. When Drake thinks he can’t take another blow, he is reminded daily of his mom who vanished twelve years ago. And now there’s a dead body. After a terrible accident turns into a protected secret, a twisted string of events brings Drake miles away from home to an elderly man’s front door. Every promising opportunity also brings new doubts and temptations to run away—this time for good. When the secret he has kept locked away threatens to reveal itself, Drake knows he must shield it with his very life, even if the love he has been shown undeservingly is about to be destroyed.

Through the Eyes of a Lion: Facing Impossible Pain, Finding Incredible Powerby Levi Lusko

What will you do when the unthinkable happens?

Her parents called her Lenya Lion because of her ferocious personality and hair that had been wild and mane-like since birth. But they never expected that, five days before Christmas, their five-year-old daughter would suddenly go to heaven after an asthma attack. How do you walk out of the ER without your daughter?

More a manifesto for high-octane living than a manual for grieving, Through the Eyes of a Lion will help you turn your journey into a "roar story" by guiding you to

• look past what you can see with the naked eye
• survive Saturday–the space between promise and fulfillment
• let God turn your pain into a microphone
• cue the eagle and run toward the roar

Whether you're currently facing adversity or want to prepare yourself for inevitable hardship, it's time to look at the adventure of your life through Jesus' eyes–the eyes of a Lion.

The Fourth Descendantby Allison Maruska

When Michelle receives a call from a Richmond historian, she sees the chance for a much-needed adventure. All she has to do is find a century-old key.

Three others – a guitarist, an engineer, and a retiree – receive similar calls. Each family possesses a key to a four-lock safe found buried in a Virginia courthouse, though their connection is as mysterious as the safe itself. Their ancestors should not have interacted, had no apparent reason to bury the safe, and should not have disappeared thereafter.

Bearing their keys, Michelle and the other descendants converge in the courthouse basement and open the safe, revealing the truth about their ancestors – a truth stranger, more deadly, and potentially more world-changing than any of them could have imagined. Now it’s up to them to keep their discovery out of the wrong hands.

“I rarely read a story that I can’t wait to get back to, and this was one. It’s full of drama and suspense. It’s fresh and new, something very much needed, and it’s totally unpredictable.”
- John Darryl Winston, author of IA: Initiate

Hutchins Creek Cacheby Deborah Garner

The small Colorado mountain town of Hutchins Creek promises to be the perfect location for NY reporter Paige MacKenzie to complete an assignment for The Manhattan Post. Situated along the Durango-Silverton train line, not only does the town set an ideal scene for an article on Old West railroad history, it also serves Paige’s personal agenda: to meet up with favorite cowboy Jake Norris, of Jackson Hole, for a little romance.

The Disembodiedby Anthony Hains

Thirteen-year-old Griffin Rinaldi seems like a normal kid. He plays basketball at the Y and he’s just learning to talk to girls. But Griffin doesn’t feel normal. He’s been diagnosed with Depersonalization Disorder–he feels disconnected from his body, and at times, he doesn’t know if he’s dead or alive. And it seems to be getting worse.

Following the brutal death of his abusive father, Griffin is haunted by a red-haired kid only he can see and who wants him to do things he doesn’t understand. Griffin’s only sources of support are his grandfather, Soren – a regional author of Outer Banks ghost stories – and his same-aged cousin, Tanner, a boy coping with his own troubled life.

When a rare blizzard strikes the Outer Banks, Griffin recognizes the red-haired boy as a vengeful specter from Soren’s tales. To make matters worse, his well-meaning aunt has convinced his mother he’s under some sort of spiritual attack. Unsure if the mysterious boy is a symptom of his disorder or an entity with evil intent, Griffin finds himself in a struggle to save his life, his sanity and maybe his very soul.
