FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Promise Me This by Cathy Gohlke

Michael Dunnagan was never supposed to sail on the Titanic, nor would he have survived if not for the courage of Owen Allen. Determined to carry out his promise to care for Owen’s relatives in America and his younger sister, Annie, in England, Michael works hard to strengthen the family’s New Jersey garden and landscaping business.

Annie Allen doesn’t care what Michael promised Owen. She only knows that her brother is gone—like their mother and father—and the grief is enough to swallow her whole. As Annie struggles to navigate life without Owen, Michael reaches out to her through letters. In time, as Annie begins to lay aside her anger that Michael lived when Owen did not, a tentative friendship takes root and blossoms into something neither expected. Just as Michael saves enough money to bring Annie to America, WWI erupts in Europe. When Annie’s letters mysteriously stop, Michael risks everything to fulfill his promise—and find the woman he’s grown to love—before she’s lost forever.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Trouble on the March by C. A. MARRIOTT

Inspector Bill Brock of the Sussex Police has his life changed forever the day he finds a naked man in his marital bed.

Banished to the sleepy March town of Llanwart, Bill needs all his natural ingenuity to keep his 2 Welsh sargeants in line not to mention the amorous advances of Mrs. Jones.

The little matter of a burnt down cottage - could it really be a resurgence of the Sons of Glyndwr? - a deadly explosion in the Major's garden and the unnerving habit of Lady Dorothy of firing her shotgun out of the window whenever visitors come to her door all fade into insignificance when 'the body' comes to town.

All in all, there is much Trouble on the March.

For Birdie Jaworski, life as an Avon Lady was a bittersweet mix of embarking on gossip-worthy adventures, searching for Mr. Right, and making emergency lotion requests in the middle of the night... while managing as a single parent.

Birdie hawks Avon at a strip club, a bowling alley on Men's League Night, and of course door-to-door.

She even sells Avon to celebrities who want to keep their zits a secret!

The book reveals a surprising and touching account of her personal life when Catholic Charities calls her and tells her the daughter she gave up for adoption is now an adult and wants to meet her. This book follows Birdie's journey during one summer while she decides whether to meet her daughter while selling Avon cosmetics door-to-door. A funny and beautifully touching read.

Birdie's stories have appeared in many online and print journals as well as on National Public Radio. Her blog on which this memoir is based, has been featured in the New York Times, Time Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, and Positive Thinking magazine.

Mr. Campbell enjoys working at the Park Place Mall. In fact, he likes the mall so much that sometimes he stays there overnight just so he can wander the open hallways and browse through the stores all by himself. The only thing more enjoyable than being within the mall alone is having a female companion there with him, one clothed in a sexy undergarment from the risky lingerie store who must flee his predatory desires. Of course getting a girl to go along with such a fun game isn’t easy. Thankfully he knows a way around this. It seems women become incredibly compliant when the flesh of a love one is threatened, especially when evidence of that threat is sent to them from the loved one’s own phone.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Clean Food Daily_ Feel Good Soup and Salad Combos by Debbie Andrews

Since the days of Adele Davis who started the holistic food movement, I have been fascinated with nutrition. She was a nutritionist and introduced "whole" grains and the concept of "whole" foods.

It was a relief to know that there was a way out of overcooked vegetables and white, starchy breads and desserts. I clung to her first book, ("Let's Eat Right to Keep Fit”, 1954)  as if my life was at stake despite the negative comments coming from family and friends. They thought I was nuts for going into green smoothies and eating unprocessed grains.

I loved her information on how vitamins and nutrients restore the cells in the body. It all made sense to me. From that point forward I invested time, money and resources in exploring natural health solutions. Living a holistic life became a lifestyle.

When I met Bernard Jensen in the 70’s, I thought he was one of the most radiant people on the planet. He had a radiance and glow and I could only attribute it to his vitality through nutrition. I lived and worked in the community of Escondido and attended his classes.  His research in iridology and investigation of nutrition made sense and I vowed to live my life with awareness around what rejuvenates and restores the human body.  Nutrition is the greatest, single therapy that can be applied to healing. When we get to the root of the problem, we can heal it.

This book contains recipes that are simple and easy for the person who is juggling many things. If you are interested in becoming healthier and cleaning up your act around food, try these delicious and nutritious, feel good foods. In the hurried life that many of us live, we often feel overwhelmed with responsibilities and focusing on health can be a challenge. I wanted to make it easier for you with a few easy to follow recipes.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do and I wish you health and happiness.

Will he secure his future by ruining hers, or will she ruin his plans by securing him? A new twist on the old fortune hunter plot puts an impoverished earl in a position to gain his fortune only by ruining an innocent's reputation without offering marriage. The innocent he's selected, however, has no plans to settle for anything less than marriage and will go to almost any length to secure him.


With no other means for an income, the impoverished Andrew Black, Earl of Townson, makes an agreement that will put a definite end to his eight year poverty streak. But, in order to gain his fortune he must do only one simple thing: ruin an innocent young lady’s reputation enough to make her flee to America.

Thirteen days, a handful of kisses and one scandalous situation later, Andrew and Brooke will have to choose to stick to their original plans, or decide if a life together is worth the risk.

Detective Daniel Kane is the self-proclaimed king of his castle, his California beachfront home, and the iron fisted ruler of his subjects -- his wife, Catheryn, and his four children: Tommy, Travis, Allison, and Nate. Hardened by years of law enforcement, he is determined to prepare his children to face a harsh and violent world. With a relentless will for perfection and scorn for anything less, Kane teaches them his rules for success and provides a model for the essentials of survival: strength, bravery, ambition, stoicism, and vengeance. He shows them everything -- everything but what is in his heart.

Over the course of a single shattering summer, each of Kane's children will be forced to pay the price his standards demand, but the brunt of Kane's fierce and exacting love will fall on Travis. Lacking the physical prowess of his older brother Tommy, Travis confounds his father with artistic "softness" and musical gifts. Yet in a devastating moment that will change all the Kanes forever, it is Travis alone who will find the courage to defy his father and, ultimately, to redeem him.

Set against the sweeping backdrop of the California coast, "A Song for the Asking" tells the story of a family not unlike your own . . .

We must not put Christ to the test, as some of them did, and were destroyed by serpents. - 1 Corinthians 10:9

When a Dallas-area priest, Father Billy Acosta, believes he's been shown a miracle by God, instead of being uplifted, ensuing weeks of doubt make him demand to see a second one. Driven crazy by what he feels is God's silence, he heads to his church's East Texas summer camp to massacre 99 kids - one at a time - to bring about Divine Intervention. Among the campers are four 14 year-olds - Phil, Mark, Faith and Maia - who are forced to come of age in the Texas woods, cut off from civilization, as their friends begin dying in horrific fashion, convinced as they are that the Devil has come to Earth and is slaughtering the faithful...

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- The Somali Doctrine by James Grenton

A lone man lies disfigured and dying by the roadside in the arid plains of northern Somalia...

Thousands of refugees are found massacred in a camp next to the Ethiopian border...

A convoy vanishes on its way to distribute food aid...

Rumours circulate that Somali militia are responsible, but Interpol agent Jim Galespi suspects the truth is even more sinister. Sent undercover to Somalia to investigate, he soon finds himself pitted against the two madmen who have taken control of Universal Action, the world's largest NGO.

Galespi's quest to uncover the truth about Universal Action and the unfolding tragedy in Somalia throws him into the centre of an international conspiracy that threatens to engulf Africa and the Western world.

From the deserts of Somaliland, the slums of Nairobi and the ruins of Mogadishu to the plush hotels of Cape Town all the way to the UK government in London, the race is on to stop disaster from striking again.

And again.

And again.

Intricate and fast paced, The Somali Doctrine is an intelligent thriller in the vein of Michael Crichton and Ken Follet.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- The House of the Wicked (a psychological thriller combining mystery, murder, crime and suspense) by D. M. Mitchell

1880: Stephen Denning is an artist arriving in Porthgarrow. It is an isolated Cornish fishing community, largely untouched by the modern, developing Victorian world, hanging onto its old traditions, superstitions and beliefs – a community that lives with a disturbing secret. So too does Denning.

He is a reluctant visitor, and though he is supposedly joining his one-time artist friend Terrance Wilkinson to form an artists’ colony it is circumstances that force him there. Denning is still haunted by the brutal death of a young woman in Brittany, and shouldering guilt for the fact that he covered up for Wilkinson when he suspects the man of having been been involved with the murder.

But Porthgarrow is haunted by its own demons and secrets. He learns about the savage murder of a woman by her husband Jowan Connoch thirteen years previously, and of Jowan’s son who has returned to Porthgarrow to uncover the truth and to clear his father’s name.

Yet it is far from over. Before long three more people are destined to die in Porthgarrow before the village gives up its sinister secrets, and Stephen Denning will learn of his own family’s mysterious involvement.

The house of the Wicked is peopled with larger than life characters – the powerful businessman Gerran Hendra and his beautiful daughter Jenna; the Reverend Biddle who collects photographs of the dead; Benjamin Croker, the journalist; and Tunny, the village wise man and healer.

From its atmospheric Gothic undertones to its shocking and unexpected end, ‘The House of the Wicked’ is D. M. Mitchell at his darkest and most imaginative best.

Some secrets will not stay buried...

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Erasing Hell: What God Said about Eternity, and the Things We've Made Up by Francis Chan & Preston Sprinkle

How could a loving God send people to hell? Will people have a chance after they die to believe in Jesus and go to heaven?

With a humble respect for God's Word, Francis Chan and Preston Sprinkle address the deepest questions you have about eternal destiny. They've asked the same questions. Like you, sometimes they just don't want to believe in hell. But as they write, "We cannot afford to be wrong on this issue."

This is not a book about who is saying what. It's a book about what God says. It's not a book about impersonal theological issues. It's a book about people who God loves. It's not a book about arguments, doctrine, or being right. It's a book about the character of God.

Erasing Hell will immerse you in the truth of Scripture as, together with the authors, you find not only the truth but the courage to live it out.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God by Francis Chan

It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe—the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor—loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss.

Whether you've verbalized it yet or not, we all know something's wrong.

Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationships with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts—it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Pressure Cooker (a novel about friendship and redemption) by D.M. Mitchell

Frank Harris is on the run. Again. Firstly from his large debts and an equally large Irishman he owes it to; secondly from Larry the violent drug pusher he shared a squat with and who ideally wants him dead; and thirdly from himself.

As he flees the city, by chance he hears a piece of music playing on a radio, something he wrote for his failed rock band thirty years ago. Like a hare bolting for cover he heads north, headlong into the lives of the surviving band members, each now going their own very different ways.

But Frank Harris spells trouble and always has done. When he persuades the group to get back together for one last gig, the tragedies of the past and the problems of the present come crashing together with violent consequences.

Alternating between the 1970s and the present, Pressure Cooker is a tale of the trials and tribulations of difficult friendships and painful love; of teenage dreams and dashed hopes; of tragedy, comedy and redemption.

Discover for yourself why D. M. Mitchell is being hailed as one of the UK's most imaginative new writers of contemporary fiction.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Thief: Fringe, Book 1 by Anitra Lynn McLeod

On the edge of freedom lies a dangerous love.

Fringe, Book 1

Nothing has ever come easy for Jace Lawless, captain of the salvage vessel Mutiny. Forced into thievery after a virus unleashed by the InnerWorld Government killed his family, only one ambition burns at the back of his mind. Kill the next IWOG officer he has at his mercy.

Bargaining over goods with a middleman isn’t exactly his strong suit. But who in his right mind spends an entire salvage job’s profits on a woman, even if she has a body built for sin and eyes so fathomless a man could lose himself in them? He must be getting soft.

Once Kraft realizes Jace expects only the “cook” part of their cook-whore contract, she sets out to change his antiquated ideas about women. A challenge she relishes, especially if it earns her the freedom and money to get her own ship. Her big mistake is letting down her guard.

Shameless flirting only intensifies the itch to ride Jace hard and put him away wet—several times. It’s an itch it would be dangerous to scratch. Exposing her heart could reveal her secret, one that the still-grieving Jace must never know…or showing her mercy will be the last thing on his mind.

Warning: Contains a celibate ship captain who can’t abide swearing, a kick-ass woman with a marshmallow heart, a motley crew of misfits, interstellar battles, thwarted groping, sensual seduction, and a total bastard who owns his own planet.
