One Night With A SEAL by Sky Lachlan

About One Night With A SEAL by Sky Lachlan

I never should’ve had a one night stand with my brother’s best friend.
But I couldn’t resist the smoking hot SEAL my family hates.

I never expected a trip meant for charity to lead me to the man I could never forgive.
If only Gavin didn’t look so scrumptious after two tours of duty.

But when my cruise turns into a hostage situation,
I see the warrior behind those sky blue eyes.

Protecting me with his life, we flee to safety.
Of course only one bed is available.

My brother doesn’t need to know my dirty little secret.
It was suppose to be for one night.

But now I yearn for Gavin’s embrace.
Especially, as I watch him hold his cute little girl.

I crave the taste of his lips.
My brother will be BOILING when he finds out I’m having Gavin’s baby.

That First Year by Margaret Kay

That First Year by Margaret Kay

From #1 Amazon Bestselling Author Margaret Kay, That First Year, a story of love, loss, family, and resiliency, with hope, tears, and laughter.

Elyse Laramie created a happy, loving home for herself and her three children, who now, as adults, are successful and living independent lives away from home. Her marriage to her high school sweetheart, Tim, had grown into something that neither of them wanted it to be, but it wasn’t something that either of them wanted to end. Elyse had always secretly hoped the future would bring about a change that would rekindle that spark between them and renew what had become a platonic relationship.

Her oldest daughter, Claire, is married with two young children of her own. She is building her career in the same field as her father. Kade, the middle child, is a paramedic, living with his girlfriend of two years. Kelsey, the youngest, is getting ready to graduate from college.

Then…a terrible accident changes everything.

In the aftermath, life goes on and brings new roles, new or renewed romantic relationships, and new challenges to each member of the family.

Grief experts advise someone coping with the recent loss of their loved one to make no major life decisions or changes during That First Year. For the Laramie family, life had other plans. This is each of their stories during That First Year.

Holistic Healing: A Guide to Naturopathy and Alternative Medicine

Holistic Healing: A Guide to Naturopathy and Alternative MedicineAbout Holistic Healing: A Guide to Naturopathy and Alternative Medicine

It was a moment that would change my life forever. I found myself at a crossroads, searching for answers in the unlikeliest of places. In a world saturated with quick fixes and prescription drugs, I yearned for something more profound, something that would heal me from within.

Naturopathy, alternative medicine, holistic healing—these were buzzwords that had always lingered on the fringes of my awareness. But it was a health scare that thrust me into the whirlwind of wellness and the power of natural remedies.

Picture this: A bustling city, a corporate cubicle, and a lifestyle teetering on the edge of burnout. I was the quintessential modern professional, surviving on a diet of fast food and caffeine, with my stress levels reaching astronomical heights. My body had become a battleground, and the symptoms of my discontent were unmistakable. Fatigue weighed me down, and my mind was trapped in a relentless fog of anxiety.

Conventional medicine offered a prescription pad, but I was determined to explore a path less traveled. The mind-body connection, that elusive concept, intrigued me, and I needed a lifeline to pull me out of the mire. That’s when I discovered naturopathy, a beacon of hope in my wellness journey.

I ventured into the world of herbal medicine, Ayurveda, and homeopathy, initially skeptical but desperate for relief. The naturopathic principles resonated with me: treating the root cause rather than masking symptoms, the synergy of mind and body, and the transformative potential of lifestyle changes.

As I began my quest for natural healing, I immersed myself in the world of herbs and botanicals. I explored traditional healing methods that had been overlooked in our fast-paced, high-tech society. The healing power of plants, energy medicine, and holistic approaches became my compass.

Through nutrition and detoxification, I learned to rejuvenate my body from within. Herbal remedies, once dismissed as folklore, became my allies in combating everyday ailments. The mind-body connection, once a distant concept, became a reality that I harnessed to overcome stress and anxiety.

This journey wasn’t without its challenges, but the results were nothing short of miraculous. I embraced self-care and integrated it into my daily routine. Disease prevention became not just a goal but a way of life, and integrative medicine bridged the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science.

My life had transformed. No longer a victim of my circumstances, I had become the captain of my wellness ship. I had unlocked the secrets of healing from within, and I was determined to share this knowledge with the world.

Join me as we embark on this journey of holistic healing, exploring the wonders of naturopathy, alternative medicine, and the transformative power of natural remedies. Let’s embark on a quest to unlock the potential of the mind-body connection, harness the wisdom of herbalism and traditional healing, and discover the true meaning of wellness.

This is our story, our path to a brighter, healthier future, and it begins right here, right now. Welcome to the world of naturopathy and alternative medicine—a world where healing from within is not just a possibility, but a reality waiting to be embraced.
