I just can’t help myself. Sometimes I get an over powering desire to be creative. I want to make something. But what? I have to be careful because I am not very artistic and I could waste a bit of money and time on something that looks kinda poopy in the end. Not even an “It’s cute because it’s homemade,” okay, but all out poopy. I don’t want poopy. Then it hit me. My partner in crime and I have six full bee colony boxes that are a blank canvass. PERFECT! I can paint them all sorts of cute things and if I don’t like it I can just repaint them. Safe and cheap! I’m just going to Google some ideas and hope to gosh I don’t run across any Barnacle Goose videos again. Just nope on that one.

Beauty: A Novel
by Frederick Dillen
4.4 Stars (40 Reviews)
Genre: Literature & Fiction

FREE for a limited time

From award-winning author Frederick Dillen, an inspiring and deeply moving novel about the power of second chances

As a corporate “undertaker” for a mergers and acquisitions firm in New York, Carol MacLean travels from factory to factory, firing blue-collar workers who remind her of her father and the kids she grew up with. She hates her job. But Carol has been biding her time: her boss has promised that one day, after she has paid her dues, Carol will get to run a company instead of having to bury it.

On what is supposed to be her last assignment, Carol travels up the coast of Massachusetts to a desperate fishing town where the late lobster and day boats cluster around the inner harbor, the blue steeples of the Portuguese church stand tall on the horizon, and the last remaining fish processing plant is in its death throes. That’s when she learns that she’s about to be fired.

To save the town and herself, Carol becomes determined to rescue the factory she’s under orders to shut down. With the help of the townspeople and a roughly charming local fisherman, and by the force of her own resolve, Carol throws herself into transforming the company — but is soon faced with increasingly difficult decisions. Must she choose between the job she has always wanted and everything else?

Beauty explores the ways in which one woman will risk everything — her savings, her reputation, and even a chance at love — in pursuit of her dream.

Genre: Literature & Fiction

FREE for a limited time

Private investigator David Spandau, an ex-stuntman familiar with the ins and outs of Hollywood — a smart, tough, and wickedly funny observer of la vie L.A. — finds his patience almost sapped when he’s hired to protect actor Bobby Dye from a blackmailing scheme gone wrong. Dye — young, brash, and on the verge of becoming a major star — has been set up by gangster Richie Stella, a nightclub owner and drug dealer with dreams of becoming a Hollywood producer.

And he has a movie perfect for Dye. Problem is, it’s the worst script anyone’s ever read. But Richie is not easy to say no to, and when he retaliates, the game becomes deadly for more than a few of its players. Charged with the elements of all great L.A. noir — crackling dialogue, fast-paced plot, and seedy, jaded characters — Loser’s Town is a deftly written thriller and a gruesomely hilarious depiction of what goes on beneath those white letters on the mountainside

Debt, Dating, and a Dead body… What’s a girl to do?

Twenty-five-year-old rookie Repo Agent, Andrea Sloan, doesn’t like accepting help from anyone – especially not arrogant musicians who are too charming for their own good. Even though she swore off men years ago, Andi finds herself drawn to handsome rockstar Cooper Barnett as he continually pops up in her life when she least expects it.

Their budding relationship becomes even more complicated when Cooper talks Andi into letting him ride-along on one of her repos, and they come across a very naked, very dead body. Being charged with murder and spending a night in jail is bad enough, but when the police don’t seem to be making any headway on finding the real killer, Andi begins to do her own investigation – much to the frustration of the homicide detective in charge.

The closer she gets to discovering the killer, the more her own life is in danger. Time is running out. Andi must figure out who the killer is before she goes to prison for a crime she didn’t commit or, worse, becomes the next dead body.

In the Shadow of Freedom: A Heroic Journey to Liberation, Manhood, and America
by Tchicaya Missamou, Travis Sentell
4.9 Stars (56 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs

FREE for a limited time

FROM POVERTY TO WEALTH, FROM AFRICA TO AMERICA, AND FROM CHILD SOLDIER TO U.S. MARINE

Born into the Congolese wilderness, Tchicaya Missamou became a child soldier at age 11. As a horrific civil war loomed across his country, Tchicaya began using his militia connections to ferry jewels, cash, computers, and white diplomats out of the country. By 17, he was rich. By 18, he was a hunted man, his house destroyed, his family brutalized in front of him by his own militia. By 19, he’d left behind everything he’d ever known, escaping to Europe and, eventually, to America.

Incredibly, that was only the start of his journey.

In the Shadow of Freedom is the uplifting story of one man’s quest to achieve the American Dream. Tchicaya Missamou’s life is a shining example of why America is a gift that should not be taken for granted, and why we are limited only by the breadth of our imagination and the strength of our will.
