About Transcendent
A genetic mutation lay dormant for hundreds of years. Finally, awakened, will the human race survive or crumble beneath its might.
Jensen Atwood has maintained a simple life at a dead-end job while spending all his free time gambling at a Casino in Atlantic City. One of these days, he hopes to win enough to allow him to move from his hometown and escape his past.
Unbeknownst to Jensen, he has been carrying a genetic mutation that is about to change his and everyone else’s life on the planet. He encounters Liam, a leader of a group of Transcendents known as the Empyreans. The Empyreans fantasize about bringing the might of the Transcendent world into the public eye and becoming the new alpha species. Thanks to Liam, his supernatural abilities are realized and released, allowing him full access to a power hidden in the shadows his whole life.
After a daring rescue from Sloan and Aiden, two Transcendents on the opposite end of the spectrum from Liam, Jensen plunges into a supernatural game of tug-o-war. Both sides fight for what they believe in. One wants to keep Transcendents from becoming public knowledge, while the other wants to oust them and push the non-Transcendents to the way of the dinosaurs.
What would happen if the world realized they had this power? What if a third of the planet had a superpower? Would humanity survive?

The Winding (Time Corrector Series Book 1) by Avi Datta
Would you alter reality for love?
Morally complex, orphan, and absolute genius Vincent Abajian is hellbent to uncover all he can on Artificial Intelligence. His relentless pursuit distracts him from a traumatic childhood loss—his childhood best friend Akane was engulfed in a time-turbulence, a random rift in space and time.
But when a beautiful, temperamental, post-doctoral scientist, Emika Amari, joins his Center, everything changes. Vincent is convinced that Akane is inside the irresistible Emika. As they begin a life together, Vincent’s past and his connection with a time turbulence survivor challenge everything they’ve created and push them into a spiral of politics and conspiracy. Vincent’s silence to protect Emika threatens to tear them apart. Unknowingly, Emika is torn between what she wants and what Akane wants from her. With his newfound power, Vincent struggles with whether or not he should create another time-turbulence to free Emika from the grasp of Akane once and for all. But will tinkering with time be more destructive than anything he has ever encountered before?

A GIRL, A GUY AND A BIG FAT LIE by Debby Conrad
He can’t decide if he’s lucky or doomed . . .
Rowan Kavanagh bites off more than he can chew when he takes over his dying father’s ski resort. He had no idea how much work was needed to make the place a success. It’s a money pit for sure and he soon finds himself turned upside down financially. What he needs is a little more time and lots of money, not some tight-ass banker who keeps threatening him with foreclosure. What that woman needs is to get laid. That should not only loosen her up but put a smile on her face as well.
Emma Fischer doesn’t have time for Rowan’s games, lies, broken promises or his sexy dimples and rippling muscles. She takes her job seriously, which is why she was named VP of her grandfather’s bank. While Abel Fischer is a softie and has been known to make some bad investments, including the loan he made to Rowan, she is all business and nothing like him. She is not about to let the man get away with not making his payments on time. Someone needs to teach him a lesson. And she’s just the man—excuse me, woman—for the job.
Okay, so maybe she was being a little hard on Rowan. She was having a bad day. It was her birthday, for God’s sake, and her fiancé ended their engagement that morning. All because she had changed her mind about not wanting children. She was thirty-five, and if ever it was time to give motherhood a chance, it was now. But he didn’t agree.
Rowan had a bad week. Between half his crew quitting on him because their paychecks bounced and chasing off Callie Stevenson, the teenage runaway that has been sleeping in his storage building, the last thing he needs is his banker paying him a visit with that holier-than-thou attitude of hers. The lady, if she was one, needed to be knocked down a peg or two. But he certainly didn’t mean to hit her with a two-by-four. That was an accident. And the minute she woke he would tell her so. He didn’t need her accusing him of deliberately hurting her, or worse, trying to kill her. The resort couldn’t handle that kind of publicity. Not good for business.
But when Emma awakes after the accident, she has no memory. Nada. She can’t remember who she is, let alone him or why they were arguing. Although Callie tells her he was trying to kill her. Rowan wants to wring the kid’s neck but Emma is having no part of that. In fact, she is somehow convinced Callie is her daughter. And not only her daughter but his as well.
Whoa! Rowan does everything in his power to convince her otherwise, but she doesn’t believe him. She has this strange notion about them being a family. Hell, he barely knows them. And yet both females are soon living in his house and redirecting his life. Call him a pushover because that seems to be exactly what he is. Still, with everything that has been going on he can’t help but wonder with the possibility of Emma’s memory returning soon, will their fake family last or will Emma end up hating Rowan?

Sons of Liberty, Lexington and Concord, Bunker Hill
On the eve of the Revolutionary War, American patriots are leaving their homes and families behind to stand firm against the British. What these early Americans do not realize, is that while they prepare themselves for their battles, a war is simultaneously playing out among the soldiers—one that poses a far greater threat to their lives and souls.
Demons that God created to kill a brotherhood of fallen angels are fanning the embers of the Revolutionary War to draw the angels out of hiding. They walk and fight alongside patriots and British soldiers alike.
Archangel, Colm Bohannon, leads his angel brothers to Boston to track down the demon leader and to warn John Hancock, Samuel Adams, Dr. Joseph Warren, and the Sons of Liberty that the British army is not their only threat. The patriots will need to engage with two enemy forces on the battlefield. As it stands, the band of angels is road weary and struggling with infighting and earthly temptations. Is faith a strong enough shield to fight off demon attacks and protect the patriots?
Angels and Patriots is the violent struggle for freedom, played out on the battlefield and the firmament as the angels fend off the demons in a quest to serve both humans and God.
About Determined to Persist: General Earle Wheeler, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Military’s Foiled Pursuit of Victory in Vietnam by Colonel Mark A. Viney
Acrimony and calls for resignations over the recent US defeat in Afghanistan evoke painful memories of the Vietnam War, the nadir of civilian-military relations when the Joint Chiefs of Staff decided to resign en masse. Has history repeated itself?
Find out in “Determined to Persist,” which takes readers inside the White House, the Pentagon, and the U.S. military headquarters in Hawaii and South Vietnam while tracing the internal debates, tensions, and critical inflection points in the Vietnam War.
The longest serving Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Earle G. Wheeler was the senior military advisor to Presidents Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon. In disgust with their administrations’ disastrous Vietnam War policies, Wheeler shredded his memoirs. He died three years later. In consequence, a gaping hole has existed in understanding the Vietnam War — until now.
Using exclusive documents from the Wheeler family and others recently declassified, “Determined to Persist” overturns long-held, inaccurate perceptions of civilian-military relations and provides a fuller, more accurate representation of the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s role in the Vietnam War.

About Cognitive Biases In A Nutshell: How To Spot And Stop The Hiccups In Our Thinking Process
Do you have a problem that you can’t see your way around, no matter how hard you try? You may be looking for the answer outside when the obstacles lie within.
We’re all biased.
You may have read the above and already your mind is raising its defenses. No … not me. I haven’t got a biased bone in my body.
The fact is: you do. So does everyone around you.
Several scientific studies, in fact, suggest that certain forms of bias may be hardwired into the human psyche.
Professor Stephen Neuberg, head of Arizona State University’s Department of Psychology published research in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology in 2005 showing that, as a species, we evolved to quickly assess dangers posed by those outside our group to enhance our chances of survival.
Nobel prize winner, Daniel Kahneman, has addressed this phenomenon in numerous articles and in his widely reviewed book, “Thinking, Fast and Slow”.
The ability to process information rapidly was a life-or-death evolutionary advantage to our human ancestors in the hostile and unforgiving environment they inhabited.
As our environmental landscape changed, we still needed to process information with appropriate speed, but the decisions became increasingly complex and nuanced.
The swift system that evolved to identify and mitigate threats in hunter-gatherer societies became faulty, resulting in several cognitive biases that everyone harbors.
A cognitive bias is an error in thinking and judgment that happens when we selectively or improperly intake information.
Your cognitive biases can be sneaky, making you think you’re more open to the ideas, experiences, and contributions of others than you actually are.
Consequently, you may be tempted to rely more on your own knowledge and judgment, sometimes with disastrous results.
You may also spend hours after a decision, agonizing, particularly those that needed to be made in a short space of time.
Cognitive Biases In A Nutshell will help you to identify and correct the cognitive biases you fall prey to in your everyday life.
Identifying and correcting your biases is just one way you gain from reading Cognitive Biases In A Nutshell. The book will also show you:
– The 5 ways your ego tricks you into thinking you know more than you do – Pg. 76
– 4 mental shortcuts we take that lead to bias and poor decision making, and the best ways to identify them – Pg. 20
– How bias exists along a scale and where yours fall on it – Pg. 14
– Why being more knowledgeable is a “curse” that may make you more prone to these 3 types of bias – Pg. 65
– The art of blending intuitive and logical thinking – Pg. 22
– Why you misremember facts, even though you’re “sure” about the details – Pg. 55
– What are the Halo and the Horn effects and how you can reduce their impact on your decisions – Pg. 121
– How wanting something to be true influences you to “find” evidence that it is and how to avoid this – Pg. 94
…. and much, much more.
Recognizing your tendencies toward certain cognitive biases makes you a better contributor to society. For example, you are less quick to judge or take things personally once you realize that everyone exhibits cognitive biases.
Cognitive Biases In A Nutshell will set you apart because you will know what they are and how to steer clear of the traps they set for your reasoning.

About Featured Book: Pattern Black by Sean Platt
(Pattern Black will be free from 1/28/2021 through 12/15/2022)
A city-sized prison with little oversight and a snitch economy is the worst place for an ex-cop. Especially one who is losing his mind.
Once a respected police officer, Mason Shaw’s father threw away his career by going rogue and landing himself in Revival’s privately-run prison, HRO22.
Now Mason is following in his father’s footsteps — he’s an inmate with no hope of parole and only two ways out: Chamber Therapy or a body bag.
Chamber Therapy promises the miracle of criminal rehabilitation, curing prisoners of their criminal tendencies. But the flip-side of Chamber Therapy’s success is its ultimate failure: Pattern Black — the total disintegration of identity that drives the prisoner insane.
Worse, Revival seems to be hiding what happens to the prisoners once they go Pattern Black.
As Mason makes his way through his new reality, a mysterious Preacher seems to haunt his every move. His only hope is Immunity, a rebel group led by a hacker named Calliope, who’s trying to fight the system from inside.
Can Mason find the truth — and expose the dark secret behind Chamber Therapy — before Revival finds a way to shut him up forever?
