Survivabilityby Khaled Fattal

A new “Era of the Unprecedented” is upon us. Geo-Poli-Cyber™ warfare has been escalating since 2010. Its most lethal perpetrators have no direct financial motivations; they are driven by political, ideological, religious, and extremist goals towards the destruction, devastation, and coercion of nations. Citizens across the world have little or no clue as to this reality nor how it impacts them.

Governments and businesses are routinely breached by unprecedented cyberattacks. Yet, they continue following the same cyber security strategies, solutions, policies, and procedures which continue failing to defend sovereignties and structures. Meanwhile, the lives and livelihoods of citizens are repeatedly ravaged.

In 2020,the COVID-19 pandemic exposed western democracies’ systemic failure to prepare for a precedented threat. This cost too many lives that could have been saved. Moreover, it exposed grave malfunctions in the current global world order—and its economic, legislative, regulative, and democratic models and institutions. It also crystalized that cyber security defenses and designs accepted as gospel are no longer fit for the purposes of defending the nation, businesses, and protecting the citizen.

Consider governmental failures to prepare for a pandemic they were warned about. Will yours be ready for cyber terrorism? Election meddling? Fake news? How about sinister exploitations of IOT, AI, and quantum computing? Overall, is your government prepared to mitigate Geo-Poli-Cyber™ attacks? This book explores those certainties and new paths forward.

In this new era, safeguarding nation-states, organizations, and citizens has less to do with cyber security . . . it has everything to do with survivability.

The Marquess’s Stolen Brideby Bella Moxie

This scandalous rake only meant to save a damsel in distress…not claim her as his own.

The Marquess of Hayden might have his flaws, but he’s never reneged on a bet. If the rumors are true, and the so-called Mad Earl truly does have a daughter, then Hayden will find her. But nothing can prepare him for the instant attraction he feels when he does. Hidden away from society, the beautiful and mysterious Madeline seems more like a princess from a fairy tale than an illegitimate child of the infamous tyrant. When he learns that she’s a prisoner in her own home, a victim of the earl and his cruel bride, it’s clear what he has to do.

Or rather, it seemed clear when he’d been deep in his cups. Unfortunately, his botched attempt at a rescue leaves them both in more trouble than he’d imagined. But now it’s his duty to keep Madeline safe and the only way to do that is to marry.

There are worse fates than to be shackled with the woman who’d bewitched him. Once the maiden is out of her tower and in his bed, he finds she’s no damsel but an enchantress who knows how to keep him lusting for more. So no…not exactly torture. They might even find happiness together—except that the marquess isn’t known for his ability to commit, and the lady he’s married has secrets that threaten any trust they might have forged.

Tomboy of the Tonby Emily Royal

A thorn in his side, or the woman of his dreams?

Henrietta Redford wishes she were a boy—after all, boys are masters of their own fate. Casting her dolls aside, she climbs trees, plays at swordfighting, and indulges in practical jokes.

Once she’s had her come-out, Henrietta has promised her father that she’ll settle down and marry. Any eligible man might do, but it certainly won’t be Giles Thorpe—the older boy from the estate next door, whose arrogant disdain of her tomboyish ways only increased as he grew into a man.

Until they share a passionate kiss…

After inheriting an earldom when his profligate father died, Giles understands the dangers of irresponsibility. The infuriating tomboy next door is the epitome of recklessness and the last woman he should associate with—no matter how fast his heart beats at the sight of her delectable form.

When scandal threatens to ruin the Thorpe family name, Henrietta, unbeknown to Giles, is his best hope for salvation. But Henrietta will have to sacrifice everything—including the man she’s grown to love.

Ms. Fortuneby Amy Booker

There are a lot of ways to impress Normandy Blake. Unfortunately for Brandon Carmichael, being a billionaire isn’t one of them.
Normandy Blake and her half-sister Chelsie just inherited Mischief Motors from their late father, Victor. The company is the most elite private car service in Las Vegas, serving the wealthy and the lucky, and the sisters are desperate to keep it that way.

One of the top tech companies in the world is holding its annual board meeting in Las Vegas, and its CEO, Brandon Carmichael, wants to pay his respects to his late friend Victor while he’s in town. Before the meeting, an insider trading scandal has his company’s stock plummeting and the SEC breathing down his neck, putting his reputation on the line.

When Normandy and Brandon meet, sparks fly, but not in the fun’ theme park fireworks’ way; more like the ‘metal in the microwave’ kind.
