Depravity

 Beautiful Woman with Bloody Curved Blade


To the world, I am Debelah Thompson: a devoted criminal justice student, a quiet deli worker, and the grieving older sister of Tamika — one of the “Yorktown Four” who vanished after a weekend sleepover. When the cameras roll, I cry on cue. The public adores their tragic little survivor.But the truth is far more delicious. Tamika and her friends haven’t left the house. They’re locked in a soundproof room directly above the detectives searching for them.I never studied law to uphold it. I studied it to break it flawlessly. From slipping antifreeze into the coffee of suspicious detectives to playing the perfect, pious “First Lady” to a beloved local pastor, I am building an empire of absolute control.I am mastering my craft, one body at a time. They think a boogeyman stole the Yorktown Four.They don’t realize the boogeyman is the one holding the microphone.

The Messy Writer: Creating Stories When Your Brain Has 47 Tabs Open

  Waste Can with Krumbled Up Papers


The Messy Writer:

Creating Stories When Your Brain Has 47 Tabs Open


What if you aren't a bad writer? What if you're just a messy one?

Writing advice often assumes you're a writer with consistent energy, uninterrupted time, endless motivation, and a brain that stays focused on one project at a time. But what happens when that's not true?

In The Messy Writer, K. E. Koontz explores the realities of creating with: 

  • ADHD,
  • chronic illness, 
  • disability, 
  • brain fog, 
  • hyperfixation,
  • and a tendency to collect unfinished stories.

Through personal stories and practical strategies, she challenges the idea that there is only one right approach to creativity. 

Learn how to work with your energy instead of against it, navigate brain fog, return to abandoned drafts, adapt your writing process to your body, and build a creative system that can bend when life gets messy so you don't have to break. 

If you have ever felt like traditional writing advice wasn't built for their brain, The Messy Writer offers a different way forward. Perfect for readers of How to Keep House While Drowning, The Anti-Planner, and Big Magic.

Courageous Communication: The conversations corrections leaders keep putting off

   Two Correctional Offices Talking


Courageous Communication:
The conversations corrections leaders keep putting off

Avoiding difficult conversations can undermine accountability, morale and operational readiness

Every supervisor has a conversation they’re avoiding: the slipping report writer, the disengaged veteran, the two officers who stopped speaking. This article argues that putting those talks off slowly wears down accountability, morale and readiness until a small issue becomes a grievance, a use-of-force review or a resignation. It gives practical guidance on setting a calm tone before tension rises, giving feedback that develops rather than punishes, earning the respect that makes correction land, stepping into conflict early, and holding standards consistently, including with the people you like most. A real mentorship story shows what coaching looks like in practice. The core message is that leaders are judged by whether their people leave better than they arrived.

Off Limits Billionaire Protector by Scarlett Parker

 Handsome Man Adjusting His Tie


I’m falling for my billionaire boss. And I’m the reason he could lose everything.

Trenton Gable is ruthless, scorching hot, and finds a new way to get under my skin every day.

He’s impossible to read and completely off-limits—which would be easier if his whiskey-brown gaze didn’t make me forget why I’m supposed to hate him.

Then a ninety-day audit traps us together, and suddenly the man who never notices anyone starts noticing me.

He remembers every word I say.

He stays when I’m drowning in work.

He even asks about my brother.

Somewhere between the late nights and stolen kisses, I stop resisting him. His hands. His mouth. The way he says my name like I’m already his.

I fall for him. Hard.

Until our forbidden secret is exposed to the one man who wants to take everything Trenton has built.

His ousted COO is turning me into the weapon he’s been waiting for.

Now the man I love has to choose between his empire... or me.

And I’m terrified he’ll choose the empire.

Off-Limits Billionaire Protector is a steamy, standalone enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity boss romance with a damaged, protective alpha hero who falls first, a sassy heroine, and a guaranteed HEA.

SHADOW MAN: THE AWAKENING

   Man in Trench Coat Walking down rainy London Street.


SHADOW MAN: THE AWAKENING

When the system fails to deliver justice, one man decides to take matters into his own hands. London is a city of shadows, where danger lurks in the streets and criminals believe they can get away with anything. James Walsh was once an elite soldier in the British Special Air Service (SAS), a man trained to face the most dangerous situations imaginable. But after years of military service, traumatic experiences and a devastating struggle with his mental health, he has lost everything. Discharged from the military and living rough on London's streets, Walsh has become a ghost in the city he once served. Until one night changes everything. When he witnesses a brutal attack on a young woman and realises that the perpetrators may never face justice, something inside him awakens. The soldier he thought he had lost returns, bringing with him the skills, discipline and lethal instincts of his former life. A new identity emerges: the Shadow Man. Operating in the darkness, Walsh begins a personal war against London's criminal underworld. But what starts as a campaign against street criminals soon exposes something far more dangerous: an international criminal network stretching from South London to Istanbul. As the stakes rise and powerful enemies emerge, Walsh finds himself confronting ruthless crime bosses, organised violence and forces with connections reaching into the highest levels of power. Yet the greatest danger may not come from his enemies. As Walsh pushes further into his violent mission, he must confront the consequences of his actions and the question of how far a man can go in pursuit of justice before he becomes something he once fought against.

How One Child Changed A Forgotten Life


Some people spend their whole lives waiting to be seen. Anna Miller stopped waiting a long time ago.

  • A quiet southern town slowly changed by simple, unwavering compassion
  • A journey from isolation toward hope, purpose, and second chances

Written with the tenderness of the best inspirational books, Chaplain Tom McQueen tells a moving story of faith, friendship, forgiveness, and grace.

It's perfect for readers who love heartfelt southern fiction, uplifting feel good books, and moving true story books.

And it belongs beside the finest religious fiction, inspirational and religious books, and Christian inspirational books, stories that remind us the greatest gift we can offer another person is simply our presence.

The Witness

   Man with finger up to mouth in a shhhh way


The Witness


I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU COULD SEE HIM.

Maren Voss takes things out of rooms for a living. From a spare bedroom in Van Nuys she lassoes laundry baskets and single running shoes out of real-estate photos, until each house looks like nobody was ever sad there. In a rental in Glendale, in the middle of June, she takes out a long wool coat hanging on the back of a door.

Her sister Nat sat in their mother's hospital room for five weeks. Maren came twice, and the second time she left at four in the afternoon for a delivery. She still hasn't called Nat back.

On the drive home she stops at an empty red light. Across the road, in a bank drive-through, a man is standing with his arms at his sides. The clearance bar crosses him at the chest. It reads 8 FT 6 IN.

He is looking at her.

"Looking's free," a stranger tells her through the glass.

His face is the one Nat wore in that room, sorry and settled in to stay until it's over.

Book one of a trilogy.
