Jason is sweet and sexy…and works for the logging company that wants to buy my land.
I can’t tell if he’s really into me...

Or if he’s just doing his boss’ bidding.

He offers to help when I decide I want to get the farm going again.
I really want to trust him, but my track record in relationships leaves much to be desired.
The only place I’m not totally overwhelmed is in his arms,
A misunderstanding threatens the happiness I’ve found with Jason,
But his persistence turns the tide.

Now with the help of him and many new friends,
My dream is about to become a reality.
Happily ever after + a successful business + a surprise baby makes three!

AN INDIE NEXT PICK!

From the #1 bestselling author in Japan comes a celebration of books, cats, and the people who love them, infused with the heartwarming spirit of The Guest Cat and The Travelling Cat Chronicles.

Bookish high school student Rintaro Natsuki is about to close the secondhand bookstore he inherited from his beloved bookworm grandfather. Then, a talking cat appears with an unusual request. The feline asks for—or rather, demands—the teenager’s help in saving books with him. The world is full of lonely books left unread and unloved, and the cat and Rintaro must liberate them from their neglectful owners. 

Their mission sends this odd couple on an amazing journey, where they enter different mazes to set books free. Through their travels, the cat and Rintaro meet a man who leaves his books to perish on a bookshelf, an unwitting book torturer who cuts the pages of books into snippets to help people speed read, and a publishing drone who only wants to create bestsellers. Their adventures culminate in one final, unforgettable challenge—the last maze that awaits leads Rintaro down a realm only the bravest dare enter . . . 

An enthralling tale of books, first love, fantasy, and an unusual friendship with a talking cat, The Cat Who Saved Books is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper. 

Translated from the Japanese by Louise Heal Kawai.

"Cats, books, young love, and adventure: catnip for a variety of readers!" –Kirkus

Your calendar is overloaded with meetings. Your inbox is filled with unread email. You hear the ringing of buzzwords and corporate jargon in your head. In other words, it’s a typical workday.

Your job might be rewarding, and you might even enjoy your day, if not for these annoyances.

Isn’t this just 'normal’ for a corporate job? Does it have to be this way?

No. There is a better approach.

Live and Let Work is a new mindset for the corporate employee. It looks at all of the little things that we take for granted in the work environment - email, meetings, presentations, jargon, goals, and more - and frames them with a new perspective. A perspective that says we can gain control and even enjoy these things. A perspective that says we don't have to waste our lives being bored and overworked.

Live and Let Work begins by covering the following aspects of the corporate workday:

• Email

• Meetings

• Presentations

• Motivation and Efficiency

The book then covers a set of soft skills that are critical in the corporate job / work environment:

• Word Choice

• Jargon

• Setting Expectations

• Setting Goals

• Be Yourself

This book is a call to action: Remove the obstacles from the corporate environment and replace them with the things that allow you to gain control and be effective. Make room to be yourself and enjoy your day. Learn to Live and Let Work!

Tales of Ghosts, Crimes, and the Paranormal: The Ghostly Visitation

A Sycamore Grove Ghostly Cozy Mystery

“Excuse me. Can we help you?” I wonder if she forgot to tell me someone else was helping us. The man looks up at me, shocked, while Maddie looks at me like I have three heads.

“Who are you talking to?” Her head whips around, clearly not seeing what I’m seeing.

Great. It’s official. I’m losing my mind. “Please tell me you can see him.” I point in the man’s direction at the man who’s still staring at me.

“You see me?” he asks, standing.

“Stay right there. Don’t move a muscle!”

“Eden, you’re kind of freaking me out. I don’t see anyone. We’re the only two back here.”

When Eden Kyle, an artist and tarot reader, moves to Sycamore Grove to help her niece develop a new store as a business, she starts seeing and hearing ghosts in the building where she is visiting. She soon has an encounter with the spirit of a recently murdered man who had been staying at the local B and B.

Most people could never kill without regret.

I don't have that luxury. I'm an artificial creation who exists solely to follow the orders of a tyrannical maniac. Death is the only constant I know.

I want more, so I'm running.

What lies beyond the realm of my former master, presents a whole new set of problems, including a mistake that lands me at death's door. I accept that. Welcome it, really. For a relic of war, death is my inevitable release.

But fate is a fickle creature.

When a dragon saves me—a creature said to be long extinct—then offers me a chance at revenge, I don't know what to believe. Trust gets people killed, but something is different about this creature.

Will he give me the freedom I desire, or is my fate sealed when I agree to his terms?

It’s November in Chicago. Still healing from an encounter with the Corn Flakes Killer, Lieutenant Michelle “Mickey” Rooney and her partner, Sam Tanner, head out into the snowy night to investigate four seemingly unrelated drug killings. They appear to be run-of-the-mill drug deals gone bad…until witnesses at one of the crime scenes report that they saw the shooting. And they have overheard the name of the killer: Esteban Fernandez.

Mickey and the Chicago PD notify the Federal authorities, thanks to a new Federal APB on Fernandez. Fernandez has been declared a threat to National Security, and all movements are to be reported.

Justice Security has been given a government contract: find Esteban Fernandez and stop him. Bring him in for trial if possible, but stop him. When word reaches them that Fernandez is in Chicago, Joey Justice, his partners, and their FBI liaison, Marcus Moore, move quickly to the Windy City, and they take over the investigation.

They also take over Mickey Rooney and Sam Tanner, and draft them into the biggest crime case in Chicago’s history…a crime case that Mickey will never be allowed to talk about.

Action, humor, and a two-night-romance for Mickey and Marcus…find out what happens when Justice Security takes on insane Mexican drug cartel leader, Esteban Fernandez, in the Windy City! Read T. M. Bilderback’s novel, inspired by the classic song performed by Paper Lace, The Night Chicago Died!

And Travis Heath is still the hottest guy in town. And somehow Jaron has gained both of their attention. One offers nothing but pain. The other offers a love he’s not sure he should trust.

From the author of the Rainbow Awards honorably mentioned, The Journey of Jimini Renn and the Saint Lakes Series comes the first book in the Pickleville series.

There are those who are born into loving families and then there are the less fortunate who must forge their own families through strong friendships.

At a local small library in New York City, one such family was born. And just like so many capricious happenstances in life, this family unit embraced newcomers and grew exponentially. But this clan was also charged with far more than spreading love and joy and a sense of belonging. This clan was formed by divine Providence to help save the planet.

Gabrielle Bernstein, the MC of Like a Lily Among the Thorns, is a woman in her twenties and has started her career as a librarian at a NYC public library. Abandoned by her father as a young girl and now orphaned by her deranged mother, Gabby longs for a family connection. Coincidentally, she finds this connection at the same time she inherits a B&B in Vermont from her estranged and now deceased father. This enchanted inn is under the watchful eye of goddesses of myth and legend who have been tasked to save mankind from destroying itself and this planet. These goddesses will use their powers to try and stall the onslaught of the effects of droughts, floods, and rising temperatures. But as a safety net they have collected human saviors all over the planet to erect safe havens at high altitudes away from flood waters and blistering temperatures.

Woven through this tale is Gabrielle’s inherent understanding that she must be grateful, mindful, and present in this journey called life.

A dying wish brought her home. Can the promise of happily ever after keep her there?

However, he has deep wounds in his past; he’s as moody and sullen as he is handsome.

Ford senses Andi might be the one to redeem him. But falling for him just might ruin her dreams and break her mother’s final wish in the process.
