I Will Take The Win
Who is your mother? I asked my baby bassets if they would like to cut out of school early today so we could start the weekend off early and go camping. The place we are going to is first come first serve, and I want a good spot. The baby bassets said no. Wait! What?? When I was in high school you couldn’t keep me in class. I spent more time showing up late, leaving early, and I cut so many classes. I was a good old fashion juvenile delinquent. I got away with it to. How? Who knows. Sneaky teens. Anywho… my kids turned the option to leave early down. They said they have too much work to do. This is why they both have 4.0 GPA’s. They didn’t get that from me. If I wasn’t there at their birth I would seriously question who their mom is. Hmmm… I might not have been a great student, but am I doing a great job raising kids? SHWEET!!
Purrfect Ruse (The Mysteries of Max Book 33)
by Nic Saint
Genre: Mystery | Animals
FREE for a limited time
Crooked collars & collared crooks When a woman showed up in Odelia’s office asking her to look into a case of a missing cat, obviously I was on the case. And lo and behold, it took me less than a day to find the missing cat… and a dead body, too! Luckily, the dead body was human, not feline. Now I know what you’re going to say and you’re absolutely right: whether human or feline, murder is murder, and should be frowned upon. And I do! Which is why I was immediately hot on the trail. Or I would have been, if not unforeseen circumstances prevented me from giving the case my full and undivided attention: the Pooles were having a new kitchen installed, and some minor disagreements immediately cropped up. Disagreements that would unfortunately lead to disastrous consequences, which I won’t reveal here if you don’t mind. Apart from what I would like to call the Kitchen Wars, there was also the case of the GPS trackers, but that would probably lead us too far afield. Suffice it to say things looked bleak for a while… before turning disastrous!

Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Rosaleen O’Connor. There I was, living an ordinary midlife, quite a good one as far as I knew. Until my husband pulled the rug out from under me, trading me in for a younger model and informing me that our beloved house in London’s Notting Hill was being repossessed.
So, with limited choices at my disposal, I landed in the home of my ancestors on the wild Atlantic West coast of Ireland. I soon found out that all was not as it appeared to be and that I was not who I believed myself to be.
Could I do it? As a mother of one grown up daughter and would-be interior designer, could I design a new life and a whole new identity for myself? With my astonishing new-found witchy powers and the help of my weird collection of new neighbours, none of whom were quite what they seemed either, could I defeat the forces of darkness? The Morrigan, goddess of war and Jalmari, the leader of the Dark Fae army, who together sought to destroy me and all that was good in the world? I would soon find out at The Great Battle of Samhain…

HUNGERING FOR GOD
by Andy Ripley
Genre: Religion & Spirituality
FREE for a limited time
Whether people have enough food or not, they are always hungry for something. This world is a world of appetites, and human beings are always searching for some kind of satiation. People are constantly looking to fulfill some desire or another. What sin has done to us as a people is this; it has distorted our appetites. It has made the satisfaction of our physical desires to be our primary concern, while minimizing, disguising or even completely obscuring our spiritual needs. What the body wants has become first in our priorities, rather than what the soul needs. One of the great lessons which the Lord taught when He was on the earth was that mankind needs to be hungry for the main thing and not just the other things. Jesus Christ, Himself, is presented as the main thing which we ought to hunger after. Of course, hungering for food, shelter, safety, and desiring to make families, are all significant, necessary and important. But these other appetites must never over-shadow and obscure the greatest of all needs, to be filled up with and to be satisfied with God Himself. Eight sermons to help redirect our distorted appetites. Eight sermons to stir up our hunger for God.

Sorry Hubby
Hubby lost his phone last night. He knew it was somewhere in the house, so I called it. RING RING RING. I could hear it. I was sure it was coming from the other room. He searched and searched for about five minutes, all the while I am calling his phone to keep it ringing. He was sure it was coming from the room I was sitting in. Nope, I was sure the other room, but I was to tired to get up and help just yet. After another few minutes of watching him search, I finally got up to join in the search. The sound got considerably louder. Oh dear… I was sitting on it. Well, not exactly sitting on it. It was under the couch. OOPS! Sorry babe. Hubby moved the couch off the wall. Everyone…. please note that the couch has not moved from that wall in a very very long time. What he uncovered was HORRIFIC! It’s burned into my eyes. BLEGH! The good news is with all that dirt and fuzz the phone landed softly. For now I am going to pretend I didn’t see all that.
Not the Faintest Trace (The Sergeant Frank Hardy Mysteries Book 1)
by Wendy M. Wilson
Genre: Historical Fiction | Mystery
FREE for a limited time
“It proved absolutely engrossing and enthralling – and I ended up reading the whole book in one sitting.” Val Burr, New Zealand Historian.
NEW ZEALAND, 1877: Fear hangs over a small Scandinavian settlement near Palmerston, in the North Island of New Zealand. The children have spotted a troll lurking in the bush, a large man clutching a hatchet and carrying a bag over his shoulders, the kind of troll that steals small children away from their families; thewomen are afraid it’s a man intent on harming them. Meanwhile, two teenaged boys are missing after crossing the river in search of illegal drinks. The inhabitants of the settlement, who have sailed from Schleswig to escape the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War, can’t get the police to take their fears seriously.
When the settlers ask Sergeant Frank Hardy, once a sharpshooter with the 57th. Regiment, to search for the boys, he’s not interested. He’s missing his old life and bored with his new life as a mail coach driver and sometime card shark, but looking for the bodies of two drowned boys is not the excitement he craves.
Then he recalls his brother who went missing a decade ago after crossing a different river, and he changes his mind. But as he begins his search, an event from his army days resurfaces, and his danger increases. And now he has a young woman to protect: the attractive cousin of the missing boys, who has assigned herself the task of helping him search.
Set in the picturesque New Zealand countryside, Not the Faintest Trace, a gripping mystery with a touch of romance, is the first of eight books in The Sergeant Frank Hardy Mysteries series. Based partly on a family story of two young men who crossed a river and disappeared, and partly on a little known but brutal atrocity, this book is a product of the author’s imagination.

Saints And Sinners: In the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms of Mercia and Lindsey
by John Broughton
Genre: Historical Fiction | History
FREE for a limited time
Saxon times were not called the Dark Ages for nothing. It was a violent, unrecognizable world of kill or be killed.
In seventh century England, tribes and so-called kings vie for power and blood flows throughout the land. Aethelred – ruler of Mercia – is being pressed from all sides, and his wife Osthryth dies under unknown circumstances. Osthryth’s ring falls into the hands of warrior noble Aethelbald, who is accused of her murder and forced to leave Mercia by his conniving cousin Coeolred, who has eyes on the throne. When Aethelred abdicates and the weakling Cenred assumes power, Coelred sees a path to become the king.
With a court rife with would-be successors, can Aethelbald survive and become Bretwaldas – the ‘Britain-ruler’ – and sweep aside the underkings to unite the land?
Based on true stories, John Broughton’s Saints and Sinners shines a light on the murky Dark Ages, and recreates a Britain on the cusp of momentous change.
