About A Drop of Magic

Annamae might not have magical abilities, but thanks to her awful childhood she has plenty of charm. After fleeing her family, Annamae befriends handsome equestrian Darvin Spurr, who offers her a fresh start in his sleepy mountainside village. With new friends and a great job, Annamae finally feels at peace…until the Spurrs need her help. Annamae believes in loyalty, and she owes Darvin for her good fortune. Except helping means confronting her painful past.

As the king’s horse trainer, Darvin Spurr took an oath to protect the land and animals entrusted to him—and the secrets that go with them. When an unknown enemy threatens to expose those secrets and endanger the crown, Darvin and his family turn to Annamae for help. Her ability to talk to strangers may gain them the information necessary to locate the villain. But it’s not easy confiding something of this magnitude, even to a charming girl like Annamae. And especially not with lives at stake.

With time running out, Annamae and Darvin are thrust into a dark world of magic and deception. Success means saving kingdoms, but failure will destroy the life and love for which they both yearn.

About Jenny on the Street by David Haldane

Special .99 sale on Kindle version March 1-7!!
A desperate young woman lost on the drug-infested streets of London, an insane revolutionary holding the devil in a jar, an indifferent truck driver forced to run over cats and a reverent grandmother looking for God in a rock. All of them inhabit these thirteen short stories set amidst the magic, majesty, mystery, and mayhem of the late 1960s and early 1970s. It was a surreal era of extreme idealism, exaggerated exuberance, ferocious fearlessness, and foolish folly. A period in which the scent of change permeated every tree, town, and tent. A time, in other words, much like our own.

My Last Chance

About My Last Chance

I’ve made lots of mistakes.
But never one like this.
Back in high school, the girl next door spent a serendipitous night in my arms. But she wasn’t my type or really up to my level.
So I walked away not knowing her secret—our secret.
Years later, I’m still at the top of my game, ruling my own chunk of the world.
She walks into my office a different woman. Strong, sexy, and dead set on revenge.
I need to walk away again, but I can’t. She’s a different person, and yet, all the things that first had me taking a chance with her pull me back in—deeper this time.
She’s going to wreck my life, one bad decision at a time, and fuck me, I’m going to let her.
The fact that the little man who calls her mom acts like me stops me in my tracks. He even loves the same things I do.
Surely not.
No damn way I’ve been a selfish bastard and haven’t considered the possibilities of our night together so long ago, but it’s true.
He’s mine, and I’m instantly in love with both of them.
I need one more chance, and I’ll do anything to get it.

THE LAW OF SWORDS: A set of laws written to prevent infighting among Svieda’s Royal Heirs in the event the King dies unexpectedly. One of these laws has never been needed… until now.

IN DIVISION IMPERILED
Divided by a war on two fronts, Svieda hopes to benefit from an expected reduction in hostilities that the upcoming winter snows will bring. With armies of hostile Porosian Elves in training, however, it cannot afford to pause its own operations, whatever the weather.

Meanwhile, Maelgyn has been called away on a secret mission by Wangdu and Phalra: Finding their uncle, who happens to have been one of Lord Ajiro’s greatest allies in the Ancient era. Is he going to be able and willing to help? And just where are all the Elves in this Elven sanctuary, after all?

Don’t Get Bullied by Your Bank…or Anyone Else!: The 5-Step Plan to Exit Your Business With All the Money You Need to Live the Life You Want by Brian Callanan

Where did the chip on the author’s shoulder come from; such that he wants to protect business owners as they exit for retirement? The chip comes all of the way from the rough and tumble streets of Boston to the exclusive offices of private wealth management in Palm Beach.

Callanan takes the reader through his painful rollercoaster’s journey of generational alcoholism, bullying and drug addiction as a youth. The book also includes him finding his faith in God. This faith helped him to deal with a baseball bat accident that took the life of a classmate, a family suicide and more than one business market crash.

The author presents a well-researched argument that Wall Street is operating from a broken 50-year-old model. This broken model will disappoint retirees as they age unless they make risk management a priority in their family portfolios.

This very personal and vulnerable story is told so that the retirement income planning paradigm for business owners is transformed. Callanan wants to educate people how to exit for all they are worth. It’s an insider’s view that although the odds are against the client, something can be done about it. Nothing is left off the table. The People need to know. This is a must read for anyone who wants to make sure they are not getting bullied by their financial institutions into taking less than they deserve.

About The Old Gods of Desolation by A. L. Plumb

Free on kindle between March 1st-5th
The first chapter is always free on desolatetales.com

The Aangshin. A demon/god hybrid built to be the ultimate weapon against humanity and the gods who would dare protect it. A being with unlimited magical potential, able to wield all powers imaginable to his whim. Or at least, that’s what was intended. With his creation being rushed, he turned out to be just a really nice guy who loves everyone. If those who created him wished to succeed in their mission, they would have to teach him the strength of hatred. Though hatred, once taught, can be a hard thing to steer away from yourself if you’re not careful…
As Aangshin learns to tap into his innate powers through the fuel of rage, his body slowly transforms into something more monstrous, as his mind devolves into something demonic. Led by his five godly fathers, Aangshin encounters several opponents in the world of Desolation, some being gods with overwhelming magical capabilities, others being monsters capable of wiping out all life on the planet, with every fight becoming more energetic and more brutal than the last. Genuine martial arts are mixed in with over-the-top magical fighting, giving some of the later battles similar feelings to those one would get from watching anime shows such as DBZ or Naruto. During all of this, Aangshin is not only pushed to his physical limits, but he is tested mentally as well. While those who created him show him naught but disdain, the godly king he was born to destroy shows him only kindness, and even offers to help him reach his full potential. He begins questioning whether he is truly fighting for the right side, or if he is instead being used as a tool for evil. The decision-making process ends up becoming very… Violent…

About The Habsburg Empire: A Captivating Guide to the House of Austria and the Impact the Habsburgs Had on the Holy Roman Empire by Captivating History

The Habsburg family ruled central Europe since the early medieval times to World War I, but they still exist as one of the most prestigious Austrian families. Although the family once ruled the largest territory in Europe, it has been reduced to a wealthy family who has all but forgotten their past. But to keep themselves in such high positions, the Habsburgs had to develop unique strategies to fight their political enemies. They wanted to rule the world and saw themselves as the only dynasty worthy of such divine right. To keep the family pure, they often married within their family, which resulted in a very weak genetic pool and many mental and physical problems.
In this book, you will discover what the Habsburg jaw is, how one family envisioned the European Union, and how conservatism can ruin an empire. The story of the Habsburg family transcends the ages, and each member who once ruled was a unique persona, deserving of our attention.
The dynasty ruled the Holy Roman Empire for the longest, and even when they lost it, they were capable of founding their own: the Austrian Empire. However, like any other family, they had problems of their own, which led to intrigues, arguments, and splits. Learn how the Habsburg family divided and how they ruled Spain as well as central Europe until King Charles the Cursed died, leaving no heir.
And finally, this book will show you the truth behind the murder of Franz Ferdinand and the start of World War I, making you wonder if the Habsburg Empire ever had to end.
