Scholarship Girl (Shadow Academy Book 1)

by Kat Cotton


Shadow Academy has many secrets… and I’m one of them.

Plucked from foster care and offered a scholarship to an elite school, I figured I had it made. It didn’t take long to discover how this school worked. Scholarship kids at the bottom of the heap, and way at the top, Ren Worthington. With his breath-taking good looks and bottomless pits of family money, you’d think he’d have better things to do than bully us poor kids.

Not so.

Ren and the other human students live their lives unaware of the creatures lurking in the dark. I wasn’t given that scholarship just for my academic skills. We’re all half-bloods and freaks - fae, witch, shifter, demon. In return for our free ride, we protect the rich brats from paranormal dangers.

When one student goes missing and Ren’s life is threatened, I get made an offer. Become Ren’s tutor/bodyguard and my future is assured. But if Ren dies or discovers what I am, I’m out of here. As if he'd discover what I am. I don't even know myself. I'm weak and powerless but they want me for the job. Who knows why?

I don’t want to get close to Ren, I don’t want to get to know him and I sure don't want to succumb to his charms, but I have no choice. And I discover, things aren’t what they seem on the surface.

Shadow Academy has many secrets… and maybe Ren is one of them.

Shadow Academy is a young adult academy series with slow burn, fated couple romance.

As Maggie travels the stream, she meets other streamlings—some malevolent, some benign—who offer her advice based on their own experiences within the stream. Through these meetings—from a midge who seeks to understand the stream by classifying the minute grains of the streambed to a water scorpion who tells Maggie her only value is as fish food—Maggie, unsure of herself, must define her own vision or risk missing the fulfillment that she seeks.

On a dark Alabama highway, army veteran Mason Sharpe witnesses a terrible accident. As he fights to rescue a woman from the burning vehicle he notices one of her eyes is bright blue, the other deep brown. Then, she vanishes. Gone without a trace.

When Mason describes her to local police, they’re stunned. His description matches one Delia Crawford, famed for her unusual eyes. But Delia disappeared as a child, eleven years prior. How could she possibly show up in a car accident now?

But Mason knows what he saw. His gut tells him something deeply sinister is going down, and Delia Crawford is somehow involved.

The Lost Years: Love

by Rowen Lee


A modern take on an age-old question: When forced to choose between her family and the guy she loves, what will Maleeka do?


Sixteen-year-old Maleeka was taught from a young age that family was 
everything. But growing up, she knew she was different from her siblings, who excelled and followed the rules imposed by their strict and hot-tempered first-generation Syrian father. Maleeka pushed boundaries, upending the order her father tried to exert upon his household. Uninterested in becoming a doctor, lawyer or an engineer, Maleeka dreams of writing and singing—of creating her own life story and following her own moral compass. Yearning to be seen and loved just as she is, Maleeka seeks solace in Marc, a high spirited and rebellious—yet sensitive—bad boy. Swept off her feet into his heart and his arms, Maleeka feels more loved and supported by Marc than she does by her family, but she is forbidden to have anything to do with him.

Not wanting to choose between her family and Marc, Maleeka tries to have it both ways. But keeping her relationship with Marc a secret is a constant battle. When her older brother threatens to reveal her secret, Maleeka realizes she has to make a choice between the one she loves and the family she needs.

Can Maleeka and Marc find a way to stay together or will they lose the fight?

The House of Making Things: Leadership in Industry and Science in the Modern World

by Scott Meikle


REVISED EDITION

Computer chip expert Scott Meikle offers a fresh take on a global industry and its future.


Computer chips are everywhere. The pervasiveness of the chip has thrust its development and manufacture onto the center stage of a global struggle for industrial supremacy. From the outset, the struggle has been an East-West competition.

Blending nuanced cultural and geopolitical insight 
The House of Making Things tells a perspective-shifting story set against the international race for dominance in chip manufacturing and technology.

Joint venture TeraSil and expat John Schmidt face a moment of reckoning. The crushing complexity and cost of leading-edge technology has pushed TeraSil’s partners to their limits. As coleader, John Schmidt must navigate through crossed objectives. But as he sits at the nexus of disputes over capital, manufacturing, and technology, he can’t stop a growing realization of who really has the upper hand in the battle for industrial might.

Author Scott Meikle draws upon decades of personal experience in an immersive narrative that brings to life the competition for success in the chip industry—and in the process, he shatters our narrowing Western perspective and delivers a broader understanding of the forces that are driving a global race for leadership in industry and science.

The Helm of Darkness (War on the Gods Book 1)

by A. P. Mobley


The Greek gods are real, and they've come back with a vengeance.

Andy and Zoey are two normal teenagers living in the year 2018—that is, until they're knocked unconscious in a freak storm sweeping the United States.

When they wake up, the world they know has been tossed away. Their city is in ruins, strange creatures walk the earth, and worst of all, everyone is gone.

They stumble across Diana and Spencer, two kids around their age who possess incredible magical abilities, and who claim to be the demigod children of Greek gods. Not only that, they also claim the year is 500 AS, five hundred years after the gods conjured a massive storm that destroyed most of humanity and helped them take the world as their own once again.

Andy and Zoey are soon handed an impossible task: To save humanity. To lead a war on the gods.

They'll have to battle monsters, death, and their own inner demons to survive and to protect the people they love.

Gods. Monsters. Magic. The War on the Gods series is perfect for fans of Greek mythology who want a new twist on the old tales.

Praise for The Helm of Darkness:

"Fabulous reading! Incredible world-building! Characters that come to life! Tons of twists, lots of action!" - Dianne at Tome Tender, ★★★★★


"Even the smallest of characters has a backstory, invoking such a love and engagement in me that it was difficult to drag myself away. I loved all of our protagonists deeply, despite their flaws and behaviours." - JK at Book Odyssey, ★★★★★


"This is the kind of book where you wonder why everyone isn't raving about it because it's the best thing since sliced bread . . . Mobley did a great job writing believable characters that grew over the course of the book but never strayed from their original identity. The characters in this, even minor ones, were given so much detail and show how well-thought-out the story is." - Alexia at BookishEnds, ★★★★★


"I enjoyed seeing a darker side to the Gods. Mostly in books and in real life, we picture Gods as being heavenly light and pure with good intentions. I liked how the readers for once see the greedy, hateful, controlling side as well. I highly recommend this book and cannot wait to read the next book in the series, Poseidon's Trident!" - Julia at Pages for Thoughts, ★★★★★


"For fans of Greek mythology, this story is like a treasure trove of references that is bound to satisfy your appetite." - Alessandro Reale, award winning author of Only One Samantha, ★★★★★


"This was a fast paced, dystopian adventure that I think fans of Percy Jackson would enjoy. There are some darker elements, some instances of gore, and some twists I never saw coming, so this may be better for those fans who age out of Percy." - C.E. Clayton, author of The Monster of Selkirk series, ★★★★★


"After Percy Jackson's adventures this series will be a hit of YA fantasy." - Eszter Szika at Goodreads, ★★★★★


"Author A.P Mobley has written such a unique plot that I'm actually shocked that not a lot of people know about this story. If writing about Greek mythology wasn't enough for A.P Mobley, she also placed the story in the future after the Greek Gods had taken over Earth. Isn't that interesting enough or what? Like I said before but I'll say it again, WHY ISN'T THIS BOOK WELL KNOWN BY OTHER READERS???" - P. G. Guacamole at Goodreads, ★★★★★

What are you waiting for, dear reader? Dive into The Helm of Darkness and team up with Andy and Zoey as they embark on a mythological quest of Homeric proportions!
