About Everything Can Be Taken Away by J.L. Schroeder
At fifty-five, Maya Sullivan thought she’d built the security she never had as a child. She was wrong.
Maya’s life is unraveling one rejection email at a time. Eight hundred and forty-eight job applications. Eight hundred and forty-eight dismissals. At an age when she should be hitting her professional stride, corporate America has decided she’s worthless—overqualified, outdated, invisible.
But unemployment is just the surface wound. As Maya sits in her quiet house, surrounded by the achievements that once defined her, she begins to hear the voice that has haunted her for decades: “Nothing you own is yours, Maya. It all belongs to me.”
Her mother’s words, spoken in childhood, are proving devastatingly true.
When Maya finally finds the courage to seek help, she discovers that her struggles run deeper than job market ageism. The perfectionism that built her business empire, the hypervigilance that made her indispensable to clients, the people-pleasing that exhausted her—they’re all survival mechanisms from a childhood she’s spent forty years trying to forget.
Now, as everything she worked for slips away, Maya must face the truth: she’s never learned the difference between surviving and living. Between earning love and receiving it. Between being useful and being worthy.
“Everything Can Be Taken Away” is a raw, unflinching look at what happens when childhood trauma catches up with you at midlife—and the courage it takes to heal for an audience of one.
Perfect for readers of:
Complex family dynamics and generational trauma
Authentic mental health representation in fiction
Women’s midlife awakening stories
Only child experiences and family dysfunction
This powerful 15,000-word novella is the first book in the “Not Quite Good Enough” series—five interconnected stories following Maya’s journey from survival to healing.
Some wounds are invisible. Some healing happens alone. Some stories need to be told.
Warning: Contains themes of childhood abuse, unemployment anxiety, and family estrangement. Includes resources for trauma survivors.

About Blossoms and Bloodlines
Beth was done with drama. Done with society, manipulation, and definitely done with men who thought they knew best. Mystic Hollow had been her refuge for the past ten years. A pub job she loved. Friends that were family. A garden that grew like a feral dream. She believed in flowers and produce, not fairy tales. And certainly not the kind that involved sacred bloodlines–and an elf who looked like heartbreak, had starlight in his hair, and a personality curated by elven drama and zero chill.
Enter Gaelithian Lithorn Halthin–third in line to the Elven Throne, powered by ancient magic, utterly allergic to joy, and armed with enough judgment to condemn a town council and all your life decisions.
Gael had no intention of getting involved. He came to Mystic Hollow to fulfill a family duty, not get distracted by a stubborn human with dirt under her nails and opinions sharp enough to pierce through elven pride. But the more time he spends in her garden, the more impossible it becomes to forget her. Especially when she looks at him like he’s both the problem and the fantasy she never asked for.
Their first real conversation? A disaster. Their second? Somehow worse. But when Mabon arrives along with a mountain of fruit, some magically assisted canning, and a stubborn streak on both sides, Beth and Gael are forced to admit that maybe pride isn’t the only thing getting in the way.
Because while duty says to stay away, desire has other plans.
Blossoms and Bloodlines is what happens when Mr. Darcy has pointy ears, Lizzy has pruning shears, and neither one knows how to stop wanting.
Welcome to Mystic Hollow, WA! Blossoms and Bloodlines is a retelling packed with magical disasters, slow-burn tension, elf court politics, grumpy/sunshine banter, and one cathartic moment involving a stubborn woman, a harvest gone rogue, and an elf peeling pears like it’s foreplay.

About Waif’s Refuge
After four years of living on the streets, he was ready to start a new life.
At fourteen, Robert had the best day of his life thanks to a boy named Sam. Following a long talk after school, the boys shared a kiss in the boy’s locker room and for the first time, they both know they are not alone. That same day soon becomes Robert’s worst. His father has found out his son is gay, and he greets the teen with the icy words, “I will not have a fag living in my house.” With nowhere else to go, Robert takes to the streets and learns to survive, even if survival means doing anything necessary to eat or have a place to sleep.
At the crossroads of life. Now, having spent four years on the icy streets off the shores of Lake Michigan, Robert wants out. After deciding he’s tired of mere survival, he puts an ambitious plan into motion. A plan life tries to thwart at every turn and is made more complicated when he meets cute college boy Mark. Love slowly blossoms, but will it wilt under the truth of Robert’s life? After all, Robert is damaged goods, and he knows it. A mere waif to be used and tossed aside at the whim of others.
Read a gritty yet hopeful coming out and coming of age tale of gay teen romance and friendship in the upper Midwest.
Raw, heartbreaking, and ultimately hopeful, Waif’s Refuge is a powerful journey of resilience, self-worth, and second chances.

About Neuro Override: A Cyberpunk Erotica Romance by Ashen Lye
“A gripping psychological thriller laced with suspense, romance, and eroticism… masterfully traverses steamy romance, science fiction, and dystopia.” — ★★★★★ Readers’ Favorite
He bought six hours of her body. He intended to keep her soul.
Lira was an artist, a neural ballerina who could paint symphonies with her body. Now, she’s a host, selling her senses to the highest bidder in Neo-LA’s grim flesh trade. It’s a simple transaction: she provides the flesh, they provide the credits.
Until Ash.
He’s no ordinary client. He is a predator of minds, a man with a ghost in his past and a hunger for something more than leased pleasure. In the silent, intimate theater of the override, he feels the disciplined grace beneath her programmed responses, the defiant artist beneath the broken woman.
He makes her an offer she can’t refuse: her vengeance in exchange for her absolute surrender. He will give her the tools to destroy the corporate gods who ruined her. She, in turn, must become the ultimate instrument in his silent war, a resonant chamber for his power, his pain, and his dark, consuming desires.
What follows is not a romance; it’s an integration. A shared consciousness where pleasure is a weapon, memory is a battleground, and a single touch can rewrite a soul. As they hunt the architects of their ruin, they are drawn into a vortex of psychic warfare and carnal transcendence that will either forge them into something new or shatter them completely.
Dive into a world of neuro-erotica, corporate espionage, and synaptic warfare. If you love…
* Dark, psychological sci-fi with a strong romantic element
* Morally grey anti-heroes with god-tier power and deep trauma
* Strong, resilient heroines who reclaim their power
* High-heat, explicit scenes that are integral to the plot and character development
* Intricate world-building that explores consciousness, identity, and technology
…then you are ready to enter the Override. The first rule is to feel everything. The second is to survive it.

About Featured Book: His Son’s Ex by K.C. Crowne
Crashing my ex’s wedding was for closure…
Until his plastic bride called me fat in front of everyone.
Three hundred witnesses. Dead silence.
That’s when the Mafia king put her in her place.
Dante Bellacino.
Devil in an Armani suit.
My ex’s father.
He shuts her up with a single look.
“Apologize,” he growls.
Then turns to me like I’m the last sin he’ll ever commit.
“You’re staying.”
I should run.
But fate traps us in an elevator between floors—
And that’s where I get my first taste of sweet submission.
Now I’m working for him.
Trapped in his world.
His rules.
My ruin.
Because the man who owns my body…
Who touches me like I’ll break,
And ruins me like I won’t…
Might be the one behind a murder that shattered my world.
And falling for him?
Might be my deadliest mistake.

About The Easter Bible Study: Understanding the Resurrection of Jesus Christ in 12 Weeks by David J. Hensley
In The Easter Bible Study, readers will study one of Christianity’s most crucial events: Christ’s death and Resurrection. Over 12 weeks, 3 weeks each are devoted to four critical topics: the need for redemption (why did humanity need a Savior?), the death of Christ (what happened on the Cross, and why does it matter?), the victory of the Resurrection (how did Jesus conquer sin and death?) and our response to redemption (how should we live in light of the Resurrection?).
Each week features an in-depth study of one Bible verse pivotal to understanding these four topics. Readers will learn about that verse’s historical context, authorship, chapter context, meaning in its original language, theological insights, and practical applications for both individuals and group studies. This book also contains two bonus studies on the origins of the Easter holiday and Mary Magdalene, the first witness to Christ’s Resurrection.
The Kindle edition of The Easter Bible Study is free on June 29. Also available in paperback and hardcover on Amazon.
