A Nation of Mothers by Michael Butkiewicz

About A Nation of Mothers by Michael Butkiewicz

A Nation of Mothers asks a simple but urgent question: what if America could finally move past the abortion stalemate and build a system that truly supports women, families, and life? For decades, the debate has been trapped between extremes. This concise, compelling policy book reframes abortion as a structural issue, one that demands investments in maternity care, mental health, adoption reform, and family support.

Ruffling the Hornets nest

About Ruffling the Hornets nest

The world is coming to full grips with what has been formally termed as Yamalistaties Drymatisis by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses. Simply known as the White Death in layman’s tongue. Since the first recorded death 3 weeks ago in the Yamal Peninsula of Russia, a total of just a shade over 15 million cases have been confirmed world-wide with no recorded survivors. A 100% mortality rate. The white death has killed a population equal to the entire population of Zimbabwe in just 3 weeks almost half the number of people killed by AIDS since the early1980s up until the present day. Unlike AIDS which had taken almost three sitting Head of States of the USA to fully acknowledge it, Reagan ignored it, Bush senior followed suit, Clinton for some time didn’t fully acknowledge the global impact of AIDS. AIDS a virus which had been wrongly attributed as the curse of homosexuals. The white death required only one head of State of the USA to fully acknowledge it as a universal disaster. It was just a matter of time before some ignorant African leader came out in the public gobsmacking the world by saying the disease is curable with a nice cold shower, just like a certain African leader once said after having unprotected sex he had a shower to clean of the AIDS virus. This is the type of thinking which stereotypes the Africans as a bunch of oblivious and myopic sex-maniacs. On 17 April the first case of the white death was recorded in Zimbabwe. A 22 year old Zimbabwean law student learning in Russia on vacation in Zimbabwe named Nigel Gonzo became the first person in Zimbabwe to die from it. With the shambolic and antediluvian health care structures in Zimbabwe, it’s just a matter of time before the entire population is cleaned up. The Dark Continent is a sitting duck to communicable diseases. The white death will sweep across it like a drugged up Californian wild fire on Mercury. Like one medical expert amply said.

“Africa’s health care facilities are tinder boxes waiting for a match stick to light them up.”

Let Your Lives Begin Again by Janith Hooper

About Let Your Lives Begin Again by Janith Hooper

Twins, Trouble and Triumph
Bound by blood, fractured by pain–faith is their last chance to start again.

Bronc and Brand Cooper, identical twins, worn down by past resentments, heedless of a loving God, and wounded by a father who didn’t get it quite right.
Their lives must shatter before faith and love can inspire them to begin again.

Bronc Cooper numbs his wounds with whiskey and work, hiding from a past that won’t let go. When his father calls in Brand—his identical twin and a self-proclaimed fixer—their fractured bond is tested in the dust and grit of Harper Ranch West.

Julia Clarke, a pastor’s daughter, sees Bronc’s brokenness and feels called to help. But when Brand arrives, her heart stirs in unexpected ways.

Shelly Taylor, the ranch’s loyal neighbor, has loved Bronc from the sidelines. Now, with Brand in the picture and Bronc spiraling, she must decide if love is worth the risk.

As secrets unravel and hearts collide, Bronc and Brand must face the truth: healing takes more than time—it takes grace.

Can Bronc and Brand confront their demons, rediscover faith, and find love that lasts? Only God knows—and time will tell.

For a limited time only, the price will be discounted to $0.99.

The Confession Paradox by A. J. Ellsworth

About The Confession Paradox by A. J. Ellsworth

A man walks into a police station and confesses to a murder.

The details are disturbingly precise. The timeline doesn’t quite fit. And yet, the case seems eager to conclude.

The Confession Paradox is a psychological thriller that explores what happens when certainty arrives too easily. As the investigation unfolds, subtle inconsistencies raise uncomfortable questions—not just about guilt, but about how truth is shaped, guided, and accepted. The story focuses less on action and more on psychological pressure, institutional process, and the quiet forces that encourage closure over doubt.

This is a short, tightly paced read that emphasizes atmosphere and tension rather than spectacle. With minimal violence and a controlled, unsettling tone, the book examines responsibility, belief, and the danger of explanations that feel complete before they are fully understood.

Free on Kindle from January 29 through January 31, 2026.

The Confession Paradox is a standalone psychological thriller available as a Kindle Short Read.

Like the Clouds Break by Aurora Stenulson

About Like the Clouds Break by Aurora Stenulson

Some storms never break, they just change direction.

Hate is easy. Hate is natural. Hate has consumed Stella Santino.

Five years ago, a massive blackout storm stole Ryder Mason—her first love, and the only person who kept her steady. She’s been broken ever since, driven by two sources: grief as cold as the night he died, and the fierce, burning certainty that Ryder’s best friend, Trev Collins, is responsible for his death.

Trev’s guilt is written in his silence and his unstable temper, which only feeds Stella’s consuming hatred. He was the last person to see Ryder alive, and the chaos Trev brings feels exactly like the storm that ruined her life.

The only refuge Stella finds is with JR. His steady presence is a quiet melody in what’s left of her messy life. But to choose JR is to finally close the door on Ryder’s memory, which is a sacrifice that feels less like healing and more like the ultimate and final betrayal of the man she can’t let go of.

When a sudden truth about Ryder’s final night throws Stella and Trev together, the wall of her hatred starts to crack. As her anger collapses, it only ignites a burning connection that demands her to make an impossible choice.

A powerful and suspenseful finale to the Mount Vernon trilogy, Like the Clouds Break is a devastating account of grief, fate, and the brutal truth that shatters all certainty. Will Stella accept the quiet comfort of the life JR offers, or is she destined to chase the brutal truth from the night she lost Ryder, even if it means running straight into the arms of the storm she’s learned to fight against?

The Lost Art of Being Good Enough: Finding Freedom from the Self-improvement Trap

About The Lost Art of Being Good Enough: Finding Freedom from the Self-improvement Trap

Free from 31/01/2026 to 04/02/2026
What if the secret to a better life isn’t becoming more, but realizing you’re already enough?

In a world obsessed with optimization, where meditation apps promise enlightenment for $12.99/month and Instagram yogis perform impossible poses in exotic locations, comes a revolutionary message: You have permission to be exactly as you are.

The Lost Art of Being Good Enough exposes the multi-trillion-dollar self-improvement industry’s dirtiest secret—it only works if you never feel sufficient. While everyone else is selling you ladders to climb, this book hands you the key to a door you already have: the door to radical self-acceptance.

From Alex Harper, the irreverent voice behind the Anti-Guru Chronicles, comes a manifesto for the adequacy revolution. Harper combines cutting insight, refreshing humor, and practical tools to help you:

Break free from the tyranny of “should” and discover what actually works for your body, mind, and life
Reclaim the lost art of rest by rejecting “productive relaxation” and embracing genuine recovery
Calculate your Self-Improvement ROI and stop wasting resources on practices that create more inadequacy than value
Master the Permission Protocol, a step-by-step method for becoming your own authority
Design reality-based practices that fit your actual life, not some influencer’s fantasy
Unlike traditional self-help that offers yet another system promising transformation, The Lost Art of Being Good Enough offers liberation from systems altogether. It’s not about finding the perfect practice—it’s about finding YOUR practice, however messy, inconsistent, or “insufficient” it might look to the wellness world.

Whether you’re a meditation dropout, wellness skeptic, recovering perfectionist, or simply someone exhausted by the endless pursuit of self-optimization, this book offers something revolutionary: permission to trust your own experience over what self-proclaimed gurus insist should work.

The lost art of being good enough isn’t about lowering your standards—it’s about recognizing that true wellbeing comes not from adding more, but from removing the artificial barriers between you and your inherent worthiness.

Join the adequacy revolution. Your nervous system (and your wallet) will thank you.

About Mindfulness Schmindfulness: Finding Peace Without Sitting Cross-Legged

Free from: 31/01/2026
Tired of trying to meditate like a serene statue while your mind throws a rave?

You’ve downloaded the apps, bought the overpriced cushions, maybe even attempted a silent retreat (and snuck out early). You’ve sat cross-legged until your feet tingled, dutifully followed guided meditations (while mentally drafting grocery lists), and berated yourself for failing to “just be present.” Sound familiar? You might be a Mindfulness Dropout.

Welcome to the club! Alex Harper, a fellow meditation failure, knows your pain. After countless failed attempts and the crushing guilt that followed, Harper asked a revolutionary question: What if the problem isn’t me? What if the problem is the one-size-fits-all, commodified, Instagram-perfect version of traditional mindfulness we’ve all been sold?

Introducing Mindfulness Schmindfulness – your official permission slip to find peace without sitting cross-legged. This anti-guru guide is a meditation rebellion for the fidgeters, the skeptics, the chronically busy, and everyone who’s ever felt like they’re just too broken for inner peace. Forget impossible standards and spiritual jargon. It’s time to reclaim mindfulness for beginners and discover what actually works for your real life.

Inside, you’ll discover:

Freedom from Mindfulness Shame: Understand why traditional methods fail so many (hint: it’s not your fault!) and ditch the guilt.
Practical Stress Relief: Find peace during your commute, while washing dishes, or between Zoom calls with easy ways to find peace that fit your schedule (some take just five seconds!).
Movement as Meditation: Explore powerful ways to find presence through walking, stretching, and even fidgeting—because sitting still sucks for a lot of us (no meditation mindfulness!).
Mindful Multitasking: Learn how to bring awareness to your busy life without trying to achieve impossible mono-tasking.
A Skeptic’s Toolkit: Get straightforward, science-based attention training without the woo-woo.
Digital Mindfulness: Learn to use your devices consciously instead of letting them rule your attention.
Mindfulness Schmindfulness isn’t about rejecting awareness—it’s about reclaiming it. It’s your guide to finding authentic presence, reducing anxiety, and increasing clarity on your terms. Whether you’re a burned-out high achiever, a stressed parent, or just plain skeptical, it’s time to join the rebellion and discover everyday mindfulness.

Whether you can’t sit still, don’t have time, or find traditional approaches alienating, Mindfulness Schmindfulness provides practical solutions for real people with real lives. No spiritual bypassing, no toxic positivity, no impossible standards—just straightforward techniques to reduce stress, increase focus, and find genuine calm in a chaotic world.

The mindfulness industrial complex won’t approve. Your nervous system will thank you.

The Intercessor

About The Intercessor

A grisly murder suicide, involving the deaths of twelve people, was quickly dismissed by the police as an open-and-shut case. A retired old-school detective, with too much time on his hands, decided to take it on himself to carry out further investigations. It didn’t help that the investigating detective on the case was once the retired detective’s subordinate, an arrogant know-it-all whose obstinate decisions would not be altered.
Regardless, the retired detective looked deeper into the case and the result of his investigations led him to the far reaches of the country before realising that there was far more to this case than met the eye.
He feared that the deaths had not finished, but with no resources and no real proof to back up his suspicions.
How would he be able to prevent further carnage?

AI FOR SMALL BUSINESS: A Practical Guide To Automating Marketing and Sales, Customer Service Automation, Social Media Marketing & More by Robin Smythe

About AI FOR SMALL BUSINESS: A Practical Guide To Automating Marketing and Sales, Customer Service Automation, Social Media Marketing & More by Robin Smythe

If you’ve looked at other AI books and felt overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Most of them bury you in jargon, theory, and tools you don’t have time to learn let alone use. AI for Small Business was written to do the opposite.

This book is for you if you’re juggling marketing, customer messages, sales, and daily operations and still trying to grow your business without burning out. You know AI could help, but you don’t want another complicated system or steep learning curve. You want something practical. Something that actually works.

Instead of explaining what AI is, this guide shows you how to use AI right away as a tireless, on-demand digital assistant that works 24/7 inside your existing business. No tech background required.

What makes this book different is its execution-first approach. Every chapter follows the same simple structure:
plain-English explanation → real-world example → copy-and-paste prompts → clear action steps.
No coding. No guessing. No wasted time.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:
• Create a 15-minute content machine that produces weeks of marketing copy in one sitting
• Automate customer responses and set up a simple, no-code AI chatbot
• Write sales emails and follow-ups that sound natural and personal—not robotic or spammy
• Draft SOPs, proposals, and business documents in minutes instead of hours
• Use AI to analyze your numbers and uncover growth opportunities—without spreadsheets or data science skills

At the heart of the book is the CLEAR Prompt Method, a simple framework that shows you exactly how to talk to AI so you get useful, high-quality results every time. Once you learn this skill, AI stops feeling frustrating or unpredictable and starts becoming a dependable part of how you run your business.

This book isn’t about replacing people. It’s about helping you and your team work smarter, reduce overwhelm, and focus on the work that actually moves the business forward.

This is not a book about the distant future of AI.
It’s a practical field guide for using AI today—to save time, simplify operations, and stay competitive without adding more to your plate.

If you don’t want to be left behind but also don’t have time to “figure AI out”, this book gives you a clear, friendly, and doable path forward.
