About Bleed More, Bodymore

HORROR IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN EVIL OVERTAKES THE HEART.

Joey’s a mechanic. One night, she receives a call from her best friend, asking for his car to be picked up from the infamous body dumping grounds of Baltimore: Leakin Park. When she arrives, there’s little more around than a stalled-out car and a couple of ravens, so she leaves only with the car. Back at the body shop, it doesn’t take long for the smell of rot to permeate the trunk. Inside? A corpse. The cops said her friend did it. His absence is his guilt, but Joey knows better. She will find her missing friend and she will prove his innocence.

But something isn’t right in Baltimore. It’s not just the feeling that someone is always watching from the city’s abandoned buildings… Her search for her friend reveals something much worse hiding under Baltimore. A ghost town, a reaper, regret. Suddenly, the city’s rage and the stink that rising out of the dirt make much more sense.

Hiding from a controlling and dangerous partner, Grace Rhodes goes off the grid when she joins an artists’ retreat to escape to a remote area of Canada’s Algonquin Provincial Park. There, she bumps into Cam, who brings back old memories—happy memories. If only she had done things differently in the past.

The pursuit is on to locate the lost friend in the vast wilderness of the park, but the group soon learns of the cryptic messages he left behind in geocache boxes. Spun with hidden innuendo, the messages hint at something sinister.

Will they find him, or is he setting a trap? Will an old flame be rekindled, or is it too late? And what will happen if Grace’s ex-boyfriend finds her?

Like Courtney, Katie believes she’s living a fairytale life tailor-made just for her, starting with a picture-perfect husband. However, the handsome, successful doctor known as Erick Reynolds was nothing more than a calculated, clever fraud that said “I do” one too many times. Matching wedding rings, identical Range Rovers, and two expensive brick homes purchased in the same neighborhood were all part of Erick’s double life.

He sold Katie and Courtney a dream that didn’t belong to either of them—a dream he’ll confiscate without warning in an ending, not even the wives could see coming . . .

About Before the Unit: The Recruiting of Kevin Banks by Anne Fox

How does a Secret Service agent protecting the president of the United States find himself becoming a part of a federal law enforcement team that’s so secretive that their deaths are faked? The team and its support personnel, known only as “the unit”, unknown to him, have had their eye on him.

How he ended up in the unit is not supposed to be known. However, when his wife—the unit’s only female member and the team’s sniper—insists on knowing, she manages to get him to tell his story.

This prequel to THE UNIT series is that story: the human side of how a young man became convinced that protecting the president should be his goal, and how protecting the president led to him doing much, much more. It takes you step-by-step through his journey, letting you see through his eyes and his thoughts how he traveled along the way. By the end of the book, you will know how he got his curious code name—Spud—and understand what is meant by the phrase “keeping it real.”

Dawn of the Egyptian Masters, The Origins by M.G. Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

About Dawn of the Egyptian Masters, The Origins by M.G. Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

Free on Amazon October 15th thru October 19th. Explore the Knowledge of the Ancient Egyptian Masters and the Origins of Their Wisdom and Power. From the dawn of civilization to the present day, accounts of highly enlightened masters possessed of supreme knowledge and power have appeared in the histories, literature and traditions of cultures throughout the world.
Transcribed directly from the journals and field notes of explorer M.G. Hawking’s sixty-two months in remote regions of the world, this book examines the existence of these great masters, presents a detailed account of their profound knowledge, and explores the possible origins of their wisdom and remarkable powers.
We begin with the translation and analysis of an esoteric manuscript, ‘The Golden Crown,’ a creation of the great Egyptian Master Kalika-Khenmetaten, who authored her masterpiece under the patronage of the majestic Kings Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten) over three-thousand-three-hundred years ago. Passages from Kalika’s manuscript clearly reveal the profound knowledge and wisdom of the great masters of distant ages:
“Experience is the product of the mind—your conscious thoughts and images—propelled into being by feelings; this forms the reality that you experience. You are therefore not at the mercy of a reality that exists apart from yourself, or is thrust upon you.” —Kalika-Khenmetaten
Explore the origins of the wisdom of the great masters through accounts of encounters and conversations the author and his companions had with individuals they believe to be the true Ri-iha-mo, the ‘mountain goddesses’ or ‘celestials’ that are legendary throughout the Himalayan regions of Nepal, Tibet, and beyond. These encounters, insofar as extensive research indicates, have no counterpart in available world literature. The underlying concepts are present in many profound literatures, both modern and ancient, but no descriptions of actual conversations with the Ri-iha-mo that reveal profound revelations about our Universe, our planet, and our true nature, revelations that can greatly assist in understanding our world, its history, and our role and power in creating precisely the life we desire. Such accounts may exist, but have apparently remained sealed, that is to say esoteric or arcane.
An outstanding book for anyone interested in the wisdom of the Egyptian Masters, and especially valuable for anyone wishing to expand their own knowledge and personal power. Includes Reference Citations and a Source Material Anthology. A Kindle Unlimited Book. 2020 Edition, Kindle e-reader page count 330. For more information, please see the ‘Look Inside’ feature on the book’s Amazon page. Thank you.

My father had no right to trade me away, but I expected it from him. To know you were so willing to buy me, so willing to trade me, so willing to treat me like I was nothing? How was I supposed to expect that, Leslie?
I left this life behind two years ago, and not even the Butcher will drag me back.

About The Influencer: Speed Must Have a Limit

What if we have been wrong about this world this whole time? What if only a few gifted individuals decide the fate of it? What if impossible is quite possible?

One of the prime minister’s many assistants, Aditya is no ordinary man. He is instead what some people call an Influencer. Yes! Literally! He is one of the few fortunate men who with the power of their minds can make other people agreeable and servile.

To the outside world, Aditya is just another employee on the government’s payroll. But secretly, he is part of a shadow organization called WIS. With his special abilities, Aditya helps the most powerful man in his country, the PM, to have the better end of the deal.

Life for Aditya had been smooth until one careless mistake precipitates into his wife knowing his big secret. WIS can tolerate anything but not a defector. It takes WIS some time but eventually they find out Aditya’s big goof up. It, therefore, declares war on the renegade. Aditya’s death is what they want.

What will Aditya do? How will he fight this decree of the behemoth that once nurtured him?

The Influencer is a story of a man who has never taken no for an answer. It’s a thrilling account of a single man who is facing the wrath of a powerful but dubious organization with highly-skilled, super assassins at its disposal.

Will Aditya succeed in dodging WIS? Or will the evil organization get what it wants? How far will this fugitive go to protect everything he cherishes?

About Agustina de Aragón

Her story is so more than a tale of war, tremendous courage and loss. It is one of the greatest love stories in history. A true forgotten heroine.

Barcelona, Spain, 1803. Agustina Saragossa, the youngest daughter of a bladesmith, sneaks around the military barracks, yet not to snag a husband as everyone thinks. Stubborn, hot-tempered and fiercely devoted to her country, like her grandfather before her, she is far more interested in learning about the ensuing war between Britain and France than the lazy, arrogant Spanish soldiers at the compound.

When Sergeant Juan Roca, a handsome officer with a troubled past, is relocated to the barracks, he is instantly struck by Agustina’s beauty and fiery spirit. Despite her heated rejections and open mistrust, he relentlessly pursues her. Will he ever win her heart?

As the war progresses between their neighboring countries, Napoleon Bonaparte deviously orders the invasion of Spain, thinking it will be an easy task. But Agustina and Juan join the fight first as guerillas then soldiers in their valiant effort to crush the enemy and regain the freedom of their country.
