FREE -- US ONLY Kindle Edition -- The Last Au Pair by Mike Sincere
FREE -- US ONLY Kindle Edition -- First You Sigh by Beth Johnson
Want to meditate but have tried and nothing seems to happen? Want to
know what it feels like to have the voice in your head stop talking?
Want to find a book that explains how to meditate in words that you can
understand? This book is perfect for you. It can turn the question marks
into answers and inspire you to move forward in your personal growth.
Learn to release that which you do not need. Learn to quiet the chatter
in your mind. Learn to live in the present and not the past or future.
Learn to honor your Self. This comfortably written book is a courageous
out pouring of one’s personal journey of learning how to meditate. The
book weaves a compelling storyline into an inspiring how-to guide,
teaching a unique method of meditation. The downhome, conversational
style of the author invites you into her world and tells you how it was
to struggle with knowing there was more to life than she was
experiencing. She felt a longing for something that she found hard to
express and yet the feeling was with her constantly. The only thing that
she knew was that the feeling felt Powerfully Sacred. As you read on
you see her moving closer and closer to the unveiling of this mysterious
feeling that had been with her since childhood. She tells you all about
the myriad of New Age things she tried in search of a doorway inward.
She wanted to see and feel this incredible Knowing that seemed to live
within her. The first glimpse of this wondrous sacredness came in a most
unusual way. So unusual that it took her a while to be able to share it
with anyone. Once she was able to muster the nerve to tell her best
friends, the doorways opened and it was obvious this was too wonderful
not to share with everyone.
Simply said, this small, powerful book
takes the mystery out of meditation and teaches you to cherish the time
you spend going within. It will take you step by step through the
"Owner's Manual of Being Human," and will surrender you into the lap of
your Soul. This wonderful book will teach you without the feeling of
being TAUGHT and inspire you to move forward in your own personal growth
and love of life.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Are You Positive? by Stephen Davis
Ripped from the headlines of today's news, "Are You Positive?" is a fictitious courtroom drama in the style of John Grisham.
26-year-old
Tyree Johnson stands accused of first degree murder in a prominent
South Carolina courtroom. But his murder weapon is not a gun or a knife;
in fact, there was no violent crime at all. His “victim,” Beth Ann
Brooks, dated Tyree for a few months, and they made love more than once.
However, Tyree Johnson had been diagnosed HIV-Positive, and the
prosecution claims that Beth Ann Brooks was infected with HIV by Tyree
and died some months later.
The defense, however, claims there is
reasonable doubt that Tyree’s HIV diagnosis was wrong – that, according
to numerous scientific studies, the so-called “HIV tests” are fraught
with errors, and have been ever since their inventor, Dr. Robert Gallo,
lied on his patent application. Furthermore, Tyree’s lawyer argues that
there is no scientific evidence that HIV is transmitted by heterosexual
intercourse, and that Tyree’s girlfriend died from taking lethal
anti-retroviral drugs rather than from any HIV/AIDS-related illness.
Based
on more than 500 actual scientific studies and references, the author
claims that every word of sworn testimony is true and verifiable.
"Are
You Positive?" raises serious questions about whether anyone has ever
been properly diagnosed as HIV-Positive, and whether most AIDS victims
are dying from the side-effects of the HIV medications prescribed by
their doctors – all in a spell-binding novel.
You be the judge.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Wrongful Death: The AIDS Trial by Stephen Davis
If you like courtroom drama in the style of John Grisham, you’ll want to
read this book. If you ever knew someone with AIDS or HIV, you need to
read this book. If you still believe the government and the FDA are
protecting you against deadly diseases and dangerous drugs, you must
read this book!
"WRONGFUL DEATH: The AIDS Trial" is a work of
fiction based on fact: the true story behind the government lies and
incompetence, gross medical malpractice, and unbridled greed by a drug
company that caused our American AIDS epidemic and cost 300,000 lives in
just ten years.
Follow along with attorney Benjamin Messick and
health reporter Sarah Meadows in this class-action lawsuit as they
expose the man who claims to have discovered the cause of AIDS, Dr.
Robert Gallo. Dr. Gallo announced to the world at a press conference on
April 23, 1984 that a virus later to be called HIV was the culprit.
Unfortunately, Dr. Gallo’s peers were never given the chance to prove
his theories, and still can’t to this day.
In the last twenty
years, Dr. Gallo has been exposed as nothing more than a common
criminal, a thief, and a liar. He finally admitted he had stolen the
AIDS virus from a French researcher. He also stole another virus from
the Japanese. He lied on his patent application for the HIV blood test. A
congressional investigation found Dr. Gallo guilty of “intellectual
recklessness of a high degree,” and the Office of Research Integrity of
the Department of Health and Human Services found Dr. Gallo guilty of
scientific misconduct and called some of Dr. Gallo's key AIDS research,
“of dubious scientific merit” and “really crazy.” As one German
scientist put it, Dr. Gallo is “an American scientific gangster who has
committed so many crass, self-aggrandizing blunders…that he could not
really be relied upon to tell the time correctly.”
Attorney
Messick questions a number of witnesses who all agree with 2700 of the
world’s leading doctors and medical researchers today, including Nobel
Prize winners in chemistry and medicine and members of the U.S. National
Academy of Sciences, that HIV cannot cause AIDS. At the end of the book
you'll find out what actually DOES cause AIDS.
The testimony in
this court case finally discloses that in the decade from 1987 to 1997,
three-hundred-thousand Americans (mostly homosexual men) died NOT from
some horrible disease they caught from a virus, but as a result of
taking the very drug they were told would cure them. Urged on by their
doctors, parents, families and loved-ones, these HIV-positives took AZT,
a drug originally designed and created in 1964 to kill cancer cells,
but never approved because it was found to be far too toxic to a human
body.
Read the testimony of witness after witness - all based on
over 900 actual medical and scientific research papers and reports -
that when the FDA finally approved AZT for the treatment of AIDS in
1987, it began causing Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome; and every
person who took it - healthy or not at the time - would die within three
years from one of many different opportunistic diseases. Be prepared
for the anger and outrage you will feel when you realize that hundreds
of thousands of innocent women and children are still being murdered
today in Africa with AZT, simply because they have been declared to be
HIV-positive, while the drug company rakes in billions of dollars in
profits.
The question remains: After 30 years and 300 billion
dollars, why don't we have a cure or a vaccine for AIDS? The witnesses
in this court case provide the only answer that makes any sense: We have
the wrong cause.

fully explain to Press. Determined to find the killer and cooperate with
the beautiful FBI agent assigned to the case,
Press juggles the two sides of his life, but may find it is more than he can handle this time. Detective Preston Andrews (Press to his friends) comes from wealthy Virginia Society with a capital "S".
He is a man admired by women for his handsome face and well-toned
physique. Men respect his opinion and skill on the job. Crooks cringe at
his tough attitude and tenacity.
Despite his refusal to accept
the FBI's efforts to recruit him, he remains with the Virginia Beach
Police Department as their senior detective.
His career is a great success--much to his father's dismay. U.S. Senator Andrews would prefer his son go into Foreign Service or politics.
A year ago, Press helped the FBI solve the East coast's worse series of murders since The Boston Strangler. He carries the bullet wound to prove it.
His personal life is a mess. His younger sister won't speak to him (his own fault), his live-in girl friend moved out, his parents are disappointed in his career choice, and the 180 lb. dog, Jones, who shares his beachfront mansion has failed multiple attempts at obedience training--and he's still growing.
A young girl's murder brings these aspects of his life all crashing together.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- The Obesity Cure: Weight Control, Metabolic Health, Revitalized Youth With Power Amino Acids by George Scheele
At last, a breakthrough in nutritional science that identifies both the
cause and solution of obesity, America's #1 metabolic disease. Using a
lifetime of scientific achievement and clinical insight, Nobel associate
and author, Dr. George Scheele, explains how to use nature's
gift--Power Amino Acids--to avoid "addictive taste disorders" and
harness the body's own feedback mechanisms to tame appetite, rebalance
metabolism, and normalize body weight. In The Obesity Cure Dr. Scheele
shows that obesity is only one in a spectrum of metabolic diseases
associated with the Metabolic Syndrome and accelerated aging.
He demonstrates how the current "paradoxes" of obesity and metabolic
health prove that something "essential" is missing in our current
understanding of nutritional health and weight control. The Obesity Cure
identifies the missing "pieces" as Power Amino Acids. These essential
ingredients have the ability to correct deficiencies in the food chain,
including positive-charged amino acids, proteins, and metabolic pathways
that adversely affect satiety, metabolic health, and body weight.
Without Power Amino Acids, the body suffers from protein deficiency
syndrome, a newly identified condition that limits the body's ability
to regulate the satiety centers and metabolic pathways that control
weight gain and loss.
This book takes a revolutionary step beyond the high fat/protein diets
of pioneers like Dr. Robert Atkins and the low fat/protein diets of
public health policy. For the first time, we can now create a
high-nutrient, low-fat, and low-carb diet that produces significant
weight loss without resorting to starvation regimens that result in
extreme hunger. The Obesity Cure reveals the breakthrough importance of
supplementing the diet with essential, positive-charged, and
satiety-producing amino acids (Power Amino Acids) that tame appetite and
rebalance the metabolic pathways to burn fat and maintain normal body
weight with the satiety feelings of comfort, satisfaction, and
well-being.
