Julian Mercer – his business card reads K & R specialist, but there isn’t much that the former Special Air Service commander won’t do. Ever since his forced retirement, Mercer and his team have been working extensively to negotiate the safe return of kidnapping victims, but that isn’t enough to satisfy Julian’s darker desires. His own life-altering tragedy has left him on the brink of insanity and violence, and only his team and his job can keep him from falling over the edge. But this latest mission could be a game-changer.
Stumbling upon the scene of a botched assassination, Mercer offers to protect Katia Rhoade, a newspaper heiress, from the unidentified killer. But Katia wants more than a bodyguard, she wants a mercenary who will hunt down and kill the animal responsible for nearly murdering her fiancé. Crime, corruption, and dishonesty are commonplace among the rich and powerful, and Mercer has difficulty trusting the police and the Rhoades. But the former SAS is a man of his word.
Violence and mayhem sweep through the city as Mercer and his team race against the clock to stop a contract killer and identify the puppet master. But the hired gun is just a symptom of the underlying disease, and until the man pulling the strings is stopped, a life hangs in the balance. In order to keep his promise, Mercer may have to abandon his morality or lose his life to stop the man responsible.
“A welcome addition to this tough genre.” The New York Times Book Review
“In recent years women private eyes have become big business, as anyone who’s been following the fortunes of Sue Grafton and Sara Paretsky can attest. Thanks to their success, the way has been opened for many other women to write mysteries uniquely their own. A fine example is Janet Dawson.” The Denver Post
“Janet Dawson’s new kid on the block, Jeri Howard, another Californian, is a kindred spirit of Dashiell Hammett’s Continental Op character.” USA Weekend
Filipino-American professor Lito Manibusan is dead, murdered in a San Francisco parking garage. His body was found by a fellow Cal State history professor – whose daughter is Oakland private eye Jeri Howard.
Several months after the funeral, mystery woman Dolores Cruz shows up on campus, claiming to be the dead man’s widow. Dolly wants the professor’s papers, but they’ve already been turned over to Dr. Manibusan’s next-of-kin.
Jeri discovers the pattern of death and deception leads from the Bay Area’s Filipino-American community all the way back to the Philippines and World War II.
After all, the past never dies. It’s just covered up.
The Korean War destroyed their plans, but the battle at home may shatter their hearts…

But the Korean War rips their neatly laid plans to shreds. Instead of a college fraternity, Joey joins a platoon. Laura Beth trades a traditional wedding for a quick trip to the courthouse.
They endure the hardships of separation, but the true battle is faced when Joey returns from the war. Their devotion is soon tested beyond endurance. Joe and Laura Beth must find a way to accept the trials thrown in their path and remain steadfast, or lose their faith and each other.

***Part 1 of 3
Gone.
Dead.
Aodh is dead.
My man, my beautiful man. Who pulled me from the darkness and gave me a chance of a life in the light.
Now he's gone. And with him, all the goodness in me has left.
I'm going to have my revenge.
The world is going to burn.
This is a short Daughter of Winter spin-off, taking place between Winter Princess and Winter Heiress. It can be read as a stand-alone, but to fully immerse yourself in this world, I'd recommend reading Winter Princess first before reading this story. Or maybe after, if you like the characters in Demon's Revenge.

Do you always wonder - why only a handful people beam with self-confidence & perform at their best, while other struggle to finish their tiny 5-pointer to-do-list? Why some people always move at fast pace despite facing obstacles, and others drag their feet back merely on fearful thought?
What if you were told that everyone can perform at highest levels? What if you can learn the strategies all performers adopt to master their mind?
The Science of High Performance is written to show you that each of us is gifted and capable of high performance. The book will show you scientifically backed principles to help you understand the power of your body and mind- and how you can stretch yourselves beyond ‘self created’ false limits. You will understand the principle behind why high performers do perform that way and how that approach is accessible to each of us.
Som Bathla is an avid reader, researcher and author of multiple bestseller books. In this book, he will hold your hand on a journey to the world of high-performers and hand you over the new set of lenses to help you look at the world differently, thoroughly backed up with scientific principles and psychological studies.
The Science of High Performance- will show you how to:
Learn how to change your self-image, develop self-confidence and perform at your best.
Learn to take stress as a challenge, not as a threat – don’t run away from stress, rather learn to work with stress.
Brian Tracy once rightly said:
You believe in high standards and sincere about upgrading your performance. Because you know that high performance opens the doors for huge opportunities, builds your self-confidence and ensures you achieve your goals faster.

Cameron Shale is a Harvester, an agent of the Church whose duty is to save the kingdom’s people by gathering the essence of those chosen to be sacrificed. He does his saving not with a surgeon’s knowledge, or a Priest’s prayers, but with the sword. They call him a murderer. They call him the Reaper. His kind are hated—and he more than the rest—but they are also necessary.
For there is evil waiting, a plague ready to wipe out all those in its path, and it is only with the essences of those sacrificed that it is held at bay. They survived it once. They will not survive it again. But when a shadowy figure known only as Memory emerges leading a rebellion against the Church and king, Cameron is forced to ask questions about a past that has haunted him his entire life. The kind of questions that can only be asked with steel. The kind that can only be answered in blood.
Reaper's Awakening is another entry from Jacob Peppers in the great Epic Fantasy tradition of Brandon Sanderson, Joe Abercrombie, and Brent Weeks.

Major Elin Mara has one rule she’s always obeyed: No mixing business with pleasure. Although difficult at times, she has stood by it. Until now. Tasked with a new job that appears to be another attempt to drive her out of the military, her first order of business is to bring the tall, ripped stranger who claims to be able to breathe fire up to speed. Without breaking her own rule. Gulp.
Awakened from the long sleep into which he fled to escape his past, Kallore quickly finds that his “teacher” is more than just that. She’s the woman he’s been searching for. Suddenly his attempt to run away seems more like fate driving him into her deliciously curvy body. Now if only he can convince her that he’s not just another soldier, but something more.
The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes for Elin to resist the dragon’s temptation. He’s scorching hot and determined to say and do everything right to gain her trust. But the past can’t stay away, and when it rears its ugly head, they both lose sight of their true purpose. Can they focus on each other and the reason for Kallore’s awakening, or will they get caught up in ancient wrongs, blinded to the danger coming straight at them?

Originally published in 1906, the book captures Eager’s years as governess to the four daughters of the Emperor and Empress Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna: the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia. All of whom would be executed during the Russian civil war just over a decade later.
This first-person account provides a fascinating insight into what was everyday life for the Romanov family. From religious celebrations and family illness to assassination attempts and life during the war; Eager’s central role gained her access to some of the family’s most precious and testing times.
In addition to documenting the time spent with her royal employers, Eager also reveals intriguing aspects of Russian society as whole. Through a series of anecdotal references she includes recollections of her time in Russia regarding such things as the tough life of the peasantry, criminal activity and even the national post service.
This classic, written from the unsuspecting eyes of a foreign nanny, shows early twentieth century Russia and the last Russian royal family like you’ve never seen before.
Margaret Eager (1863-1936) left the Russia in 1904 and returned to Ireland where she received a pension from the Russian government for her time as a nurse. She kept in contact with the family she had known so well right up to their brutal deaths in 1918. Eager’s family stated that she never fully recovered from the news.
