About The Spirit of a Rising Sun By K. R. Galindez

Release Day – September 5, 2021!!

Rebellion is always right.

Oyza yearns for revolution—an impossible dream with her lifetime prison sentence. Fueled by the destruction of her home and years of servitude, she reads the smuggled texts of the Ungoverned and dreams of a future that can never be. But the arrival of a new prisoner, Yars, reignites Oyza’s courage. She finds herself capable of more than she ever imagined.

To fight their way to their own freedom, they must fight for something bigger: freedom for their homeland. Between an invasion by godless gunwielders, a heartless commander who’s determined to kill Oyza, and webs of secrets and lies woven through their world, it will take all their strength and wits to survive. When blood is spilled, how much will be their own?

Building Blocks

About Building Blocks

“If this keeps up, I’m going to blow my brains out.”

It wasn’t until I actually said those words that I realized I’d hit rock bottom. I didn’t just say them. I meant them.

Think back to your school days. Do you remember the kid in the back of the classroom? That quiet one who was different from everyone else? Maybe he didn’t dress the same as most kids. Maybe he had a different haircut or liked different music. Perhaps he came from a poor family and his clothes were often dirty. You picked on him for being different. It was no big deal; everyone else did it. You giggled at him and called him names. You knocked his books off his desk and pretended it was an accident. You shot spit-wads at him. You excluded him from games at recess. It was funny to you, and that’s all that really mattered.

Remember that kid?

That was me.

Now, I’m about to relive my past in an attempt to understand why God, the God of peace and love, permits the cruel injustices of the world.

About Gods of Rome (Rise of Emperors #3)

For one to rule, the other must die.
312 AD is a year of horrific and brutal warfare. Constantine’s northern army is a small force, plagued by religious rivalries, but seemingly unstoppable as they invade Maxentius’ Italian heartlands.

When the two forces clash in the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, there are factors at work beyond their control and soon they are left with carnage.

About The Devil Is In The Details

Saamyah Anne Cambell is a former special agent of the FBI, now a detective with local law enforcement. She absconds Texas for a temporary duty assignment in Florida to cope better with familial losses. Thrust into a new environment, cantankerous partner, and mystifying case, Saamyah soon realizes that the very agony she was running from is ultimately the same torment she is running to.

Bryan Terrell Russell has been a lone detective with local law enforcement since the resignation of his career-long partner. Accustomed to come, go, and do as he please, the assignment of a new partner is not only inconvenient for him, but also uncomfortable. Torn between the desire to be right and the obligation to do the right thing, Bryan must strategically balance personal sacrifices and professional gains.

Together they must rise above their differences to halt a sadistic sex offender. In a race against time, hot-temperaments, egos, and pride, the quest to discover the devil in the details is no easy feat—particularly when one partner believes that the truth sets one free and the other never felt captive to lie.

The Devil is in the Details

Pressurized for Greatness: Five Things About The Grace Of Tomorrow by Ivenetta Smith

About Pressurized for Greatness: Five Things About The Grace Of Tomorrow by Ivenetta Smith

The best thing about a gift is that it’s free, but it must be received for it to be opened. Greatness is a gift from God we must deliberately cultivate, and pressure is a part of the cultivation process to greatness. Pressure is a force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it. To experience pressure means to be processed and we must be processed to be able to walk in greatness.

We will all face pressure in life. In fact, it is an essential part of life. Look at diamonds, pearls, or even gold. The backstory to their greatness is pressure. We, too, have a backstory, and like the diamond, we will face pressure. As with the pearl, we will face irritable situations, and like a piece of gold, we will face fiery trials. However, the pressure is necessary for greatness to come forth. We are more valuable to God than those precious gems, but God uses pressure to strengthen, purify, and build us up.

Many of us like to think that pressure can be avoided. However, the truth is that pressure, come to us all in one way or another Whether it is a relationship, career choice, or life decision, we will face pressure. I’ve come to understand that rejection is God’s protection and redirection from a path or paths that are not aligned with God’s plan and purpose for our lives. Rejection is also God’s redirection for Him to perform a resurrection. Some situations that we get ourselves in that will actually kill our purpose. Yet the grace of God is bigger than anything and everything.

I wrote this book to not only share my backstory to unlocking my greatness, but also to encourage and empower people to recognize greatness comes from pressure. It is through my faith in Jesus Christ that I realized in pressured times that greatness resided inside of me and the pressure was a part of the process. The grace of God kept me. I want you to know that greatness resides in you. There is grace for tomorrow.

Fatal Pose By Barna William Donovan

About Fatal Pose By Barna William Donovan

MUSCLES, MAYHEM, MURDER

Venice, California: Where you’ll find the hottest beaches, hottest gyms,
and hottest bodies. This is where ex-bodybuilder turned private
investigator, Gunnar Marino, runs his business.

The World BodyBuilding Federation: The most successful health and
fitness empire in the world. But WBBF President of Operations, Laura
Preston, suddenly finds herself in the middle of a blackmail scheme,
with bodybuilder Brad Holt threatening to expose a shattering secret
from her past.

Where two adversaries meet: After Holt dies at a contest from what
appears to be a dangerously unhealthy dieting regimen, Marino is hired
to look into whether or not his demise might have been the perfect act
of murder. But the deeper Marino digs into the case—pressed by a
personal obligation to Holt’s sister—the more unsettled he is by Holt’s
background, questioning the morality of seeking justice for a corrupt
murder victim and pursuing a prime suspect who might have been a victim
herself.

A showdown no one might walk away from: Finding himself in an escalating
battle of wills and wits with Laura Preston, Marino is aided by a group
of athletes he employs as an investigative staff, and Dr. Erika
Lindstad, his former lover and ex-bodybuilder in her own right. But the
more troubled Marino gets by the case, he realizes that he has no choice
but to see the investigation to its conclusion…because suddenly he and
everyone he cares for are targeted for death.
