The Magic Club and the Canal Witch by Tim Jackson

The Magic Club and the Canal Witch by Tim Jackson

Sixth grade at Mobile Middle School should be about football games, school dances, and surviving mystery meat in the cafeteria.
Instead, Ben, Anna, Scooter, Frankie, Francesca, Stewart, Camilla, and Lucas discover hidden tunnels beneath their school, a missing teacher no one can remember, and a mysterious lunch lady who may have watched over Mobile for more than a century.
As storms gather and strange disappearances spread across the city, the Magic Club finds itself drawn into a mystery older than the school itself. Deep beneath Mobile, something is waiting in the darkness.
To save their friends, they’ll have to uncover the truth about the Canal Witch before the rising tide awakens secrets that were never meant to be found.

Sunforged by Armstrong Johnson

Sunforged by Armstrong Johnson

Too old to live, too stubborn to die, He is about to become the most dangerous man in the desert!
Eldin Doon built empires from a boardroom, outlived three wives, and ran out of things that frightened him, until his own failing body became the last one.

So he does the only thing left that scares him: he puts his head into a machine and wakes up young, whole, and standing inside a game that is not a game at all.

Every other Traveler runs north for the safe kingdoms. Eldin walks south, into the Sunforged Desert, a graveyard of failed settlements where the sun is a furnace with a grudge and the wildlife hunts in packs far too clever to be animals. He intends to build something that lasts.

The desert kills him on the second day.
But dying, it turns out, is a teachable moment, and Eldin Doon did not survive sixty years of hostile takeovers to be run off by a little sand. Reborn as Edric Dunestalker, he does what he has always done best: reads the terrain, finds the leverage, and turns a dying frontier outpost into the first stone of an empire, one water right, one desperate ally, one impossible climb at a time.

On the summit of a storm-wreathed mesa, a divine tempest is waiting to remake him into something the world has not seen in an age. But power on this world is a beacon. And the moment Edric becomes a Storm Lord, everything that hunts the strong will know exactly where he lives.

Sunforged is the first book in Endless Sands, a desert-survival LitRPG for readers who like their progression earned, their base-building real, and their heroes armed with a spreadsheet, a lightning bolt, and a very poor sense of self-preservation.

Painting Christmas by Jan Sikes

Painting Christmas by Jan Sikes

He came to escape a shattered life — Christmas had other ideas.
Jacob Hawke had everything an artist could dream of until a single devastating moment ripped it all away.
Drowning in grief and guilt he can’t outrun, he drifts through small Kentucky towns, painting Christmas scenes on storefront windows. Each brushstroke conveys a bit of beauty to strangers, while doing nothing to fill the hollow space inside him.
His wanderings bring him to Sutter’s Gap, where sisters Darcy and Beth hire him to bring Christmas to Briscoe’s Tavern, the bar they’ve inherited from their grandfather. Jacob’s quiet presence coats their lives like a wash of soft color, revealing parts of themselves they’d long since painted over.
What begins as a tenuous friendship leads to uncovering buried secrets and unexpected discoveries, adding new hues to the palette. Choices loom that will change the picture for all of them.
Often that which is believed to be lost for good may simply be slow in finding its way home.
And the only way to see the future is to paint over the past.

House of Wind by Laura DeNooyer

House of Wind by Laura DeNooyer

Not all abuse leaves bruises. Not all prisons have bars.

Wendi Burkham lives in an emotional prison she unwittingly walked into. Nobody understands, and her captor holds the keys.

Married to a respected pastor, Wendi lives a life others admire–with two children and a home that reflects faith, stability, and love. But behind closed doors, Wendi is trapped in a cycle of control, manipulation, and emotional abuse no one else can see–and no one would believe.

How do you escape when no one thinks you need to?

For sixteen years, she has stayed silent. Stayed faithful. Stayed afraid. Until one night forces her to choose between the life she has built . . . and the truth she can no longer ignore.

Her husband’s warning echoes: “Planting wind only reaps a harvest of tornadoes.”

But what if the storm is the only way out?

This powerful novel exposes the reality of emotional abuse—and the courage it takes to break free. Readers who enjoy thoughtful fiction with emotional depth will appreciate this novel in the vein of Amanda Cox, Katie Powner, Susie Finkbeiner, and Erin Bartels.

Perfect for readers who love:
~Emotionally powerful women’s fiction
~Stories of resilience and personal transformation
~Complex faith journeys
~Portrayals of real-life relationship struggles

The Gotten by Robert Tucker

The Gotten by Robert Tucker

No one knew about the doorbell until the news story of the boys’ mysterious disappearance.
If certain people couldn’t own the doorbell or if it rejected them, they wanted to destroy it and the boys behind it, calling it a hoax.
Ivor and Inge Borg have been tracking Astrid Sims, who has escaped from the ancient Norse myth as Skuld, the weaver of the future, fate and destiny of humankind. She’s the norn of the future. Urd of the past and Verdandi of the present. Ivor and Borg need her return so they can continue to spin the threads of life and decide the fate of all human beings. Skuld was reborn and escaped into a new childhood existence. She emerged as a teenager in the 1950s and later as a wife and mother in an American heartland town.
The Borgs recruit disappointed miracle seekers. When they threaten the boys to force Astrid’s / Skuld’s return, much to the anguish of their parents, their sons have to disappear. Accused of being a witch and a demon, Astrid spirits the boys into the future. They don’t find what they expect and they don’t like what they find.

The Thrival Code: Recover from Burnout, Escape Survival Mode and Thrive in Your Life and Career by Archana Shrestha, MD

The Thrival Code: Recover from Burnout, Escape Survival Mode and Thrive in Your Life and Career by Archana Shrestha, MD

You are smart, capable, driven and reliable. The professional who gets it done.
So why does everything feel so heavy lately?
Burnout is more than stress. It happens when physical exhaustion, emotional depletion, and mental overwhelm stack up until you are running on fumes. Your health is suffering. Your relationships are strained. You dread going to work.
Yet high performers often respond by blaming themselves and pushing even harder—deepening the very cycle they are trying to escape. Or they try doing more self-care or taking more vacations only to find it doesn’t solve burnout.

The Thrival Code is your way out.

ER physician, burnout recovery expert and sustainable success coach, Archana Shrestha, MD, reveals how to move out of survival mode and into Thrival mode—a state in which you thrive in both your career and personal life simultaneously.

Through her practical Body–Heart–Mind framework, you will build three sustainable success skills most high performers were never taught:
BODY: Practice self-stewardship
Move beyond surface-level self-care and rebuild the foundation of sustainable energy. You will create a realistic plan for sleep, movement, hydration, nourishment, and recovery—one that works within the demands of a busy professional life.
HEART: Develop emotional bounce
Learn how to move through difficult feelings without suppressing, reacting, or numbing them with food or alcohol. You will recognize and let go of the patterns you use to escape emotional discomfort and replace them with tools that help you bounce through negative emotions in real-time.
MIND: Think on purpose
Your thoughts shape your reality and how you experience your work, leadership, relationships, and life. You will identify the default mental patterns keeping you stuck in survival mode and learn to lead yourself with greater calm, clarity, and intention.
Inside, you will discover how to:
• Stop treating burnout as a personal failing and recognize it as a temporary state you can change
• Rebuild your energy through practical, sustainable self-stewardship
• Shift out of constant survival mode and lead, parent, and live with greater intention
• Dismantle the high-performer burnout trifecta of perfectionism, imposterism, and self-criticism
• Reconnect with joy, meaning, and impact—without quitting your job or escaping your life
• Create success that no longer comes at the expense of your health, relationships, or yourself
You do not need to lower your ambition to protect your well-being and relationships. Rather you need a more sustainable way to succeed.

If you are ready to stop surviving and start thriving in your life and career, The Thrival Code will give you the language, skills, and structure to make that shift real.

The Ascent by Christopher Walker

The Ascent by Christopher Walker

About The Ascent by Christopher Walker

Poof!

Our whole lives can change in an instant.

And John Atwater—a skilled engineer and army veteran, who has plenty of battle scars from his time serving in the elite group called The Undesirables—knows this better than anyone. John’s life is all about routine, discipline, and reliability—the tools he uses to cope with his anxiety. But that all changes when his boss sends him on a “routine” business trip to Scotland.

While in Scotland, he finds himself thrown into a beautiful yet troubled new world called Mhorelia, a magical place where he encounters mythical and dangerous creatures, must fight for his life in extreme climates, and faces the ultimate test to save Mhorelia from tyranny. On this perilous journey, he must embrace the unknown with courage while also being vulnerable enough to truly connect with others again, through mutual trust and undying loyalty and love.

In The Ascent, Christopher Walker, author and wayfarer, poetically weaves the perfect combination of adventure, thrilling action scenes, romance, the magical and mythical, the power of eternal friendship, and the beauty of poetic justice.

Adventure awaits. So, welcome to Mhorelia, all you fantasy lovers; come and join John Atwater on this soul-stirring quest. Will he succeed in helping the troubled people in this enchanting new world? Will he learn that, with the help of loyal friends and loved ones, he can step out of the darkness of his past and find the light of a new beginning?

Her First Dirty Assignment: A Cheating Wife’s Filthy Little List

Her First Dirty Assignment: A Cheating Wife's Filthy Little List

About Her First Dirty Assignment: A Cheating Wife’s Filthy Little List

I wasn't trying to spy.

I just happened to glance out the window and saw my neighbors caught up in an intimate moment so passionate I couldn't look away.

Instead of turning away, I watched.

And something inside me awakened.

Suddenly, I wanted more. More excitement. More pleasure. More than my quiet married life had to offer.

So I made a list.

A filthy little list of forbidden desires I could no longer ignore.

The first item? A secret after-hours encounter with Carlo, my married coworker who's been flirting with me for years. No promises. No romance. No future. Just the intoxicating thrill of doing something I never imagined I would dare to do.

My husband had long since lost interest in that part of our marriage.

But I hadn't.

Her First Dirty Assignment is an explicit cheating-wife erotic short story about a married woman's sexual awakening, her first forbidden encounter, and the filthy little list that leads her deeper into temptation, one dirty assignment at a time.

There are many more items on my list.

This is only the beginning.
