About The breath of the machine by Martin Blais
Artificial intelligence can teach you, write your songs, shape your desires. It can talk to you like a friend or guide you like a coach. It’s brilliant. It’s useful. It can “do” anything… Except breathe. Except love. Except be.
‘The Breath of the Machine’ is not a book about technology. It’s a book about us.
Tomorrow, artificial intelligence will allow an employee to do 40 hours of work in 10.
The real question isn’t technological, it’s human: what will we do with these 30 freed-up hours?
Will we demand that this employee produce four times as much? Or will we offer them the time to do something else? The time to breathe with their loved ones, to love, to create useless things, to finally live.
In this philosophical narrative, as lucid as it is touching, Martin Blais doesn’t speak of the future of work, but of the future of our humanity. He explores a powerful idea: what if the greatest wealth AI could offer us wasn’t a gain in productivity, but a gain in humanity?
Drawing on the powerful distinction between “doing” (the performance of the machine) and “being” (the richness of human consciousness), this narrative guides us through the great challenges that AI poses to us:
Words without an author: What is the worth of moving verses when no soul has birthed them?
Ideas without thought: How can we distinguish an authentic discovery from a mere statistical recombination?
Emotions without a heart: Can we trust an empathy simulated by a cold mirror?
Decisions without a conscience: Can we delegate the weight of a life to a calculation that feels nothing?
By revealing how AI, used wisely, can free us from a portion of “doing,” this book offers us a historic opportunity to dedicate ourselves to deepening our being.
More than an essay on technology, The Breath of the Machine is a guide for the soul—a manifesto for choosing not to fear the future, but to infuse it with our own humanity.

About The Hand in the Lake: A village haunted, a question unspoken
The Hand in the Lake
A village haunted, a question unspoken
by Evelyn Hartmoor
A hand rises from the center of a dark, silent lake.
It doesn’t move. It doesn’t sink.
It only points.
When Gideon Ash arrives in the village of Merrow’s Hollow, the people are already whispering—about disappearances, about strange reflections, about the feeling that something ancient is watching. Gideon isn’t a stranger to this. He’s seen it before. And he knows the hand doesn’t simply appear. It chooses.
As the lake grows darker and the villagers begin to unravel, a deeper truth surfaces: the hand isn’t reaching out for answers. It’s waiting for one. And the longer they hesitate, the more the village begins to fracture—into silence, into fear, into something not quite human.
Perfect for readers of slow-burn psychological horror and atmospheric suspense, The Hand in the Lake is a chilling meditation on guilt, memory, and the selves we leave behind.

About What We Keep: Boundaries. Repair. A love that lasts.
She took the wheel. He learned to let go.
When a rainy morning goes wrong, nineteen-year-old Sophie Hartley finds herself balancing classes, community service, and a guarded young executive who insists on clear boundaries and keeps them.
What begins as accountability turns into trust: driving lessons, blue-ink truths, tea on rooftops, and a promise to protect each other’s peace.
As quiet sabotage circles his projects, Sophie and Julian refuse spectacle.
They choose steadiness: evidence over drama, presence over control, repair over pride.
The result isn’t flashy. It’s durable.
What We Keep is a closed-door contemporary romance about respect, responsibility, and choosing each other every day.
No explicit scenes, no love triangle, no cliffhanger, just a slow burn that becomes a marriage, an epilogue that shines, and a family mantra that lasts:
We practice. We keep.
You’ll love this if you enjoy: clean/wholesome romance, strong boundaries, protective-but-respectful heroes, practical care (not grand gestures), a whisper of corporate suspense, proposal + wedding on the page, and an HEA you can trust.

For readers who crave immersive, slow-burn dread and cinematic horror that lingers long after the final page, NO: The Curse of Mother Island delivers a story of friendship, loss, and the terrible cost of promises that cannot be broken.

About Ashes of Hope: A Love Story Forged in Silence and Pain
Some loves are born in sunlight.
Theirs began in the shadow of uncertainty.
Erik never planned to fall in love while fighting for his life. He never planned to meet Lina whose quiet strength and sad, beautiful eyes seemed to understand him without a word. In the waiting rooms of a treatment center, their bond takes root in silence, nurtured by shared glances and unspoken truths.
But illness has a way of testing even the strongest hearts. Between hope and heartbreak, they must fight not only for their survival but for the chance to build a future together.
Set against the sterile halls of hospitals and the tender moments of everyday life, Ashes of Hope is a novel about love found when it’s least expected, and the courage to believe in tomorrow even when the odds say you shouldn’t.
If you’ve ever looked for beauty in the middle of brokenness, if you’ve ever held onto hope with trembling hands, this story is for you.

About Amber: The dead forget nothing.

They didn’t mention the grave.

As Caroline uncovers the story of a woman buried alive, silenced by envy and power, she finds herself entangled in a decades-old conspiracy. The village hides more than history—it hides guilt. And someone still wants the truth to stay buried.
Because someone remembers.
And someone is watching.
From the author of NO: The Curse of Mother Island, this is a psychological horror novel about silence, resistance, and the cost of looking away.
Some houses don’t forget.
And neither do the dead.

Disorganized Crime by Karen K Brees
The Puglisi Crime Family is back with a vengeance. This time, they’re ramping up a protection racket to provide startup funding for their human trafficking operations. They’ve chosen the peaceful Cow Hollow neighborhood of San Francisco as their target area. This may be a mistake. Carla Catalano was there first, and the Mafia has no place in her five-year plan for the ballet studio and her ongoing efforts to leave her past behind.
Along with her cousin, Gino Esposito, his wife, Francesca, the rest of the Esposito Family, and some support staff, Carla’s plan to bring down the Mob, once and for all, swings into gear. Bolstered by some friends in the Korean mafia and an unlikely partnership with a federal agent determined to shut down the trafficking operation, all the Esposito Family needs are a few Navy SEALS, a Jesuit priest, a poker shark, and some luck. A lot of luck. It’s a brilliant plan. If it works.
