About Quantum Action – Life Beyond Artificiality – by Lee Jakeman
There are two distinct types of action. The one type of action is creative and can potentially solve all our problems. The other type of action is the effect of conditioning and is the cause of most of our problems. The basic thesis here is that it is the conflation of the two that prevents problem resolution, both on a personal and global level.

Chaos’s Crime – Someone killed one of our bunnies and framed me. Lucky for me, my President knows I’m innocent and hires the best defense attorney in town, Evie Buchanon. Not only is she brilliant, but she’s the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever met. It would be a crime not to pursue her.
Scar’s Secret – As a medic with the Marines, I’ve patched up my fair share of injuries. But never has saving a life meant as much to me as saving Caitlin Chambers. She’s a fighter inside a fragile body. I can’t keep my feelings for her a secret, unfortunately it isn’t the only secret I have.
Grimm’s Guilt – Being part of an MC means trusting your brothers, especially your President. But what happens when you realize those you trusted lied to you? Especially when that lie destroyed the life of the woman you love. The guilt is all-consuming.
Reaper’s Rage – My rage led me to join a gang. Watching a man die sent me on a different path. Joining the Demon Dawgs saved my life and my sanity. It gave me my brothers. It also gave me Ashlyn Barnes. She’s the only person who can calm the rage still inside.

About Featured Book: So Shall The Tree Grow by Ninie Hammon
Free from 1/24/2023 through 1/32/2023
Family loyalties, deadly feuds, and international drug wars are brought to life in Ninie Hammon’s new intergenerational tale set in present-day Kentucky, four decades after the rise and fall of the Cornbread Mafia.
When Ruth Hannacker finds a “just-in-case-anything-happens-to-me” letter among her mother’s things after she was killed in a tornado, it opens a new chapter in the family’s decades-long, fraught, and often tragic story with Righteous Weed.
The letter from Jessica Monaghan Hannacker tells of the Tree House, a propane tank buried in the ground where Willie Ray Taggart stashed his marijuana money back in the heyday of the Cornbread Mafia. When Ruth finds the Tree House, she discovers $75,000 in cash and quart jars of Righteous Weed seed, the finest strain of marijuana ever developed.
Over the protests of 72-year-old Riley Hannacker, the only remaining living member of the original Cornbread Mafia, the family decides to grow an indoor crop, illegal in Kentucky, so they can patent the strain and get a license to grow in one of the 11 newly legal states. They plan to market it as a premium boutique cannabis, appealing to the nostalgia of the smokers’ first-time high.
But as so often happens with the best-laid plans, things quickly go awry. Jealousy, resentment, anger, greed, and deeply buried feelings from long gone wrongs resurface and wreak havoc with what is left of the family.
So Shall The Tree Grow is the fourth and final book in Ninie Hammon’s new Cornbread Mafia series, a fictional story inspired by the real Cornbread Mafia that sprang up in picturesque Marion County, Kentucky, and grew into the largest illegal marijuana-growing operation in U.S. history.

About My Heart, Christ’s Home: 100 Days of Joy and Strength in Jesus by Patricia Adderley
My Heart, Christ’s Home is a collection of 100 poems and the scriptures they were based on. God lives inside each one of us, if we’ve accepted Him as our Savior. However, salvation is only the beginning of a lifelong journey.
Throughout our lives, we will face trials of many kinds. We have to deal with loss and grief, fear, faith, or questions of identity just to name a few.
We ask ourselves things like “Does God really know me?”, “Who did God create me to be?” or “Is there more to life than this job?”.
We hide things about ourselves from other people and, especially, from God. We are afraid that if they found out who we really are we might be rejected. Whether warranted or not, we feel shame for our past actions, feelings, and thoughts.
I don’t know about you, but it’ a constant process to turn over those hidden parts of my heart and mind to God.
This collection of 100 poems are moments in time where I asked God many of the questions I listed here and more. As I take time to be with Him and listen to Him, He fills me with His peace. I find rest from my anxious thoughts. He shows me who He created me to be and He gives me strength.
No matter what the circumstances, He fills me with unspeakable joy. He can do the same for you as well. As you read this, I encourage you to take time to listen to God. My hope is that this book will be a resources that can help you draw closer to God. He has great plans for your live, even if at moments it doesn’t seem like it. He just wants to be with you. He wants you to turn to Him with all of your prayers, thoughts, hopes and dreams. He’s waiting.

About Murderous Depths: A romantic, sexy murder mystery with humor, intrigue, and suspense
Sam awoke, not knowing where she was.
Her body was crunched up in a ball, and the cedar closet smell assailing her nostrils brought back memories of Grandma’s cottage.
She didn’t open her eyes. Moving set off the Fourth of July inside her head, and reaching out caused a thick, wooden splinter to bore into her index finger. She jerked her hand back and brought it to her mouth. What was this, a coffin?
The sticky bump on her forehead was tender. Panic bubbled steadily inside her, rising upward.
Where was she?
Finally rustling up the courage, she opened her eyes.
This was worse, far worse. Time stood still in utter blackness. The silence was deafening. There was no whispering of palms, no thrashing of waves–nothing existed around her. She screamed, and her voice echoed inside the tiny box, ricocheting against the wood and slamming back into her ears. She pounded the walls and kicked the sides until, suddenly, another sensation registered.
Falling. Down, down, down. To an eventual thump.
And then she felt it. Water—the frigid water had also seeped into her socks.
