The Sixth Kingdom is the center of the known world. It is the repository of the all knowledge and secrets, and the heart of arcane wizardry. It is the College, the arbiter and enforcer of world peace. It’s also the place to learn magic, perfect deadly warrior skills, or bond with dragons.

Comprised of four Castes, the College accepts only the best and brightest of those who can afford to send their children to the hallowed halls of destiny where they are groomed to assume their future roles in each of the five kingdoms.

Four friends in four Castes… they call themselves ‘the Family.’ Their goal? To one day rule the College. Of the four, Fiach has the least claim to privilege as he was sold to the College by slave traders after his parents were murdered. It is a memory he can no longer repress as he and the Family are swept up into the power struggles to rule the world.

A father and his son. 2500 miles apart. A blue ribbon crosses the sky. The world starts to unravel.

No one knows what is happening, but everyone is trying to find out. Buck is running his big rig from the west coast. Garth is trapped in New York City with his high school friend.

With Marine training and an eighteen-wheeler, Buck heads east. With no training and no communication with his father, Garth fights just to escape New York City.

The Hadron collider in CERN. Its twin south of Denver. The Australian outback. What do these places have in common? Those who might be able to fix things are trying to figure it out while Buck doesn’t care. He is on a mission to find his son.

Is time the enemy of humanity?

Join us today in this fight for survival in an exciting new Post-Apocalyptic series.

When the lie is two thousand years old, who, exactly, will the truth set free?

While analyzing parchment fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls, grad student Susan Bauer pieces together text that indicates the existence of a stolen Secret Temple Scroll that was penned decades before the gospels. If discovered, this document could free the Jewish people from the centuries’-long blemish that they are responsible for Yeshua’s death.

It could also turn Christianity on its head.

From the basement of the Israeli Museum to a basilica in a picturesque French village to the ruins of Herculaneum, ex-Mossad Yigael Dorian and blacklisted archaeologists Valentina Vella and Erika Simone journey on a transcontinental chase, dodging thieves, kidnappers, cardinals, and enlisting mobsters to uncover the truth behind this rumored scroll.
It is the writer of this document, however, who has the final word in a mesmerizing depiction of life in the Galilee alongside Yeshua.

Dalton

The thing about love…

It’s kind & beautiful, soft & hard, forgiving & emotional, but love can also be blind. Love can twist and turn you into someone unrecognizable.

That’s the way it was for Josie and me. She became my everything. I fell heart over mind, allowing her to take the only thing that I could call my own. The life I envisioned for us was blurred by secrets, hard to overcome. She made me question whether what we had was based on truth or a lie.

Joselyn

Dalton was an obstacle in the way of what I’d always shied away from, and the only way to reach my end was through him. So, I made a choice to get close to him, even when I shouldn’t have. We were never meant to be what we became. I didn’t intend for something forced to turn into something real. In the end, Dalton was so much more than just a means to an end. He held the key to everything, including my heart. It was his to have, to hold, to break, and to mend.

That’s the thing about love…

It can’t be forced. It just happens, and once it’s in motion, it’s impossible to stop.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Two widows, six kiddos, and a will that leaves them a massive cattle ranch, but only if they work it for a year.

Abigail and Amanda may have married brothers, but they have almost nothing else in common (and really, they never did get along very well). After their husbands both pass away, they have no reason to interact. Their connection drops to an awkward phone call on birthdays and an exchange of holiday cards.

Until an eccentric uncle of their husbands' leaves a massive cattle ranch to the women's minor children. . . if they work the ranch themselves. A ranch that's located near a small town on the border of Wyoming that isn’t too keen on outsiders.

They're both going to turn the bequest down, clearly. It’s not like either of them could properly raise their kids or find love again in a backwater province like Birch Creek. But when things at home change dramatically—for both moms—they decide to give it a try. . . just for the summer.

What could possibly go wrong in a mere three months? (Or more importantly... what might go right?)

Publisher's Weekly says, "The Bequest [is] an endearing work of women's romantic fiction and the first in the Birch Creek Ranch series. [It] offers a compelling setup as two wildly different women are thrown together in the aftermath of their husbands' deaths. Baker's prose is candid, warm, and allows readers to feel immediately connected to the two protagonists. Baker brings freshness and fun to the story of two 'couldn't be more different' individuals who find they have more in common than they'd anticipated."

Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Pamela Kelley said, "B. E. Baker takes you right to the heart of the small town that two widowed sisters-in-law land in very unexpectedly. Can they survive the year they need to spend there to keep it? I really enjoyed reading Bridget's romantic women's fiction debut."

Can you find love while living on the ruthless Frontier? Follow four passionate romances as they try to find happiness in the dangerous untamed wild west.

Mathew Jenkins knows loneliness better than anyone. Jenny Philips needs to escape her domineering uncle who’s trying to sell her to the highest bidder.

A mail-order bride ad brings these two tortured souls together. Upon meeting the Virginia rose, Mathew falls hard and offers to help her get settled.

Although Jenny finds herself attracted to the kindhearted cattle farmer, she fears that a marriage amid deadly conflict between miners and natives could spoil their chance at happiness.

Can the couple survive a bumpy trail to love and begin a new life together?

Sheriff Jacob Benning dreams of only one thing: being a father. After placing a mail-order bride ad, an accident ruins his handwriting and with it, a chance to meet an educated lady.

He believes his dream of fatherhood is over.

But Rosa Casey, a woman battling anxiety and low self-esteem, finds the sheriff’s bad handwriting charming. For the first time in her life, she swallows her fears, packs her bags, and takes a leap into the unknown.

In the small Montana town, Jacob and Rosa begin to build a life. But dangers of the frontier lure at every corner, threatening to destroy a relationship that has just started to blossom.

Will Jacob and Rosa survive the dusty dangers to live happily ever after?

Dan Mavis, a schoolteacher in the small town of Bear Creek, Montana, believes the only way he’ll finally marry is if he mail-orders a wife. His elegant female colleague, Phoebe James, strongly disagrees.

After having her heart broken one too many times, Phoebe finds herself falling for a handsome educator, a man strikingly different from those who’ve previously courted her.

Just as Dan starts noticing the beautiful assistant and things start heating up between them, Dan’s advertisement reaches a woman keen to take up his offer.

Dan’s mail-order bride shows up at the worst moment, ready to break the starry-eyed couple apart.

Will this dramatic interruption ruin Dan and Phoebe’s best chance for a happily-ever-after?

When Edward James settled in Bear Creek to manage the mines, he didn’t plan on falling in love. Since the moment he met Morning Sun, his world has been turned upside down and he wants nothing more than to worship the Sioux beauty and be a devoted husband.

Morning Sun loves Edward with all her heart, but her loyalty lies with her tribe.

Can she really ask Edward to give up his life to live with the Sioux? Does Edward love her enough to leave behind the life he built?

As doubts and fears plague the couple’s minds, the US military plans to banish the Sioux to a reservation, taking Morning Sun away from Edward forever.

If they run away together, they can save their love, but what will become of the tribe?

Can their love survive the harshest of tests?

Jim has nowhere to turn. His mentor is dead. Millions of dollars are missing. And he can’t remember the last six months of his life.

That discovery leads him down a path filled with treacherous questions he must answer before it’s too late. To uncover the truth, Jim must navigate the secretive worlds of shell companies, corporate fraud, and money laundering. However, he can’t trust a soul with what he comes to learn along the way.

“This book is exactly how money laundering is completed through the banking system. While reading the captivating story, it was obvious that the author has intimate knowledge of common money laundering schemes. Awesome book for those who love reading about financial crimes.”

- Robert Nordlander, CPA, Host of Fraud Fighter Podcast

"It is very refreshing to see Mr. Krepp explain the actual mechanics of how money laundering can operate under the radar which is a key component of this fictional story. The plot incorporates the variety of methods that fraudsters use to hide the proceeds of crime. Readers will gain a true understanding of how we 'follow the money' from corporate fraud, consumer fraud and threat financing to find the bad guys."

- Suzanne Lynch, Director of Financial Crime Programs, Utica University
