New country, new life, new passion.

“I was an idiot. A fool to trust Tom Delaney. He’s a manipulator, a grade-A narcissist, a bully who would say anything to keep me in line. Well enough’s enough. I’m gone. No more private hospital luxury for this nurse. No more swooning at the magic hands of New York’s finest cosmetic surgeon. I’m going to help people for real. As far away from my spoiled life as possible…”

In the aftermath of a devastating Pacific Ocean tsunami, New York nurse Jenny Brogan settles into life with a charity on Thailand’s stunning east coast, where she successfully banishes her manipulative ex-fiancé from her thoughts. It’s hard work, heartbreaking at times, but uncomplicated in a way that makes it all worthwhile.

Uncomplicated, that is, a new man, quite literally, steps out of the blue … out of the ocean to be precise, with a surfboard under his arm and a chiselled body glistening in the sun.

Logan Summers.

But just when Jenny is starting to lose herself in the hot, sensual pleasures of a new relationship, her ex shows up in town, determined to drive a wedge between them.

If she is to finally achieve the love and sexual fulfilment so long denied her, Jenny must find the courage to let go of her doubts, and to trust a good man … despite his secrets.

Surviving an EMP when you're not a Navy Seal or a prepper. Ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.

After several attacks on the unfinished settlement at Tabernacle, Nick Mercator argues that hunkering down is not the answer. There will never be enough ideas and skills inside the walls to remake their world. A chance encounter with a dying invader presents both a spiritual dilemma and an opportunity to act on his beliefs.

The subsequent recruiting mission to a beleaguered town goes badly when an army of marauders attacks its helpless citizens. Saving them will require the reluctant leaders at Tabernacle to send help. Even that won't resolve Nick's moral issue, however. He can find peace only by taking on an even more perilous task.

Sometimes, thinking outside the box is all about what we have inside...

An Amazon Bestselling Paranormal Romance!
 

Hunted, shot, and without her memory, eighteen-year-old Ann Baker wakes in shallow water on a deserted Pacific Northwest island. She is soon approached by two young men claiming to be her friends. Something isn't right, but when gunshots sound, Ann is left with little choice but to allow Devon and Archer to help her escape. Soon she finds herself in their North Bend mountain compound, where the higher evolved humans claim to be mind-readers. While Ann heals, she realizes they believe her to be one of the last and most powerful of all - The Lost One.

She's welcomed by most with opened arms, but not everyone is happy about her arrival. A jealous adversary has plans for Ann, which spirals the entire Reader community into chaos.

As lies, murder, and betrayal threaten to rip apart the once harmonious mountain dwellers, Ann is thrust into making a decision that could save or devastate not only The Readers, but all of mankind. But there's just one glitch: by doing so it may require her to make the ultimate sacrifice.

The first time Moses Murphy’s granddaughter killed on his orders, she was six years old.

For twenty years, she was a prisoner of an organized crime syndicate, forced to use her magic to make Moses the most powerful and feared man on the East Coast. To escape his cruelty, she faked her own death and started a new life as Alice Worth. As a private investigator specializing in cases involving the supernatural, Alice walks a precarious line between atoning for the sins of her grandfather’s cabal and keeping her true identity hidden.

Hired to investigate the disappearance of a mysterious object of power, Alice enlists the help of Malcolm, a ghost running from a past as nightmarish as her own. It soon becomes clear the missing object was taken by someone with a dangerous secret and an unknown agenda. When her client is kidnapped, Alice must find her and the object of power before a vengeful killer destroys the city and slaughters thousands—starting with Alice.

“Edmonds’s prose is energetic...Alice is both spunky and self-deprecating, with incredibly advanced magical powers...There is promise in Edmonds’s melding of the supernatural and the everyday.”

My story is a familiar one. I was a high school athlete, but sometime during my adult life I started to decline physically. It started with hypothyroidism, allergies and depression in my 20s and 30s. By my 40s, my allergies progressed to asthma. I frequently got colds, had trouble sleeping and gained 15 pounds I couldn’t get rid of. Quite frankly, I felt like my body was falling into a downward spiral that I feared would end badly. Experts told me what to eat and how to exercise, but no matter what I did, my body seemed to break down more. That’s when I set out to find new ways to improve my health. I took classes, studied my own body, and experimented with elimination diets and exercise. Eventually, I recognized the subtle ways my body was telling me what it needed that I was ignoring. The smarter and more diligent I became about responding to my body’s cues, the better the results…the bigger the transformation. Now in my 50s, I’m in the best health and shape of my life!

Family and friends who hadn’t seen me in a while immediately noticed a difference. They commented on my slender, solid physique and how vibrant and energetic I seemed. They wanted to know what I was doing. That’s when I formalized my method which I call Integrative Body Conditioning. It has three focus areas: irritant elimination, nutrient replacement and weightlifting and conditioning…with an emphasis on finding what works for you. Think about it. We’re all genetically different…each with unique characteristics, lives and struggles. We should expect we’ll react to foods, stress and exercise differently. But who’s the best person to figure that out? You are! I spent years on a long and rambling wellness road before I realized that important fact. I don’t want that for you. That’s why I wrote this book…to guide you through a set of changes that will benefit you in months instead of years.

This book is presented in four sections, each focusing on one aspect of Integrative Body Conditioning,

•The first section (Irritant Elimination) addresses the primary reasons the body weakens and gets sick. Consisting of four chapters, it covers the environmental, biological, physical and psychological factors that cause inflammation in the body and explains how, if left untreated, they can sabotage your health and fitness efforts.

•The second section (Nutrient Replacement) is also made up of four chapters. It describes the importance of figuring out which foods rejuvenate and rebuild your body and creating a meal plan that ensures you’re getting enough of the “good stuff” every day.

•The third section (Weightlifting and Conditioning) covers the importance of continually leveling up and individualizing your strength training plan. The key is targeting exercises that build and maintain whole body muscle strength in the shortest amount of time.

•The fourth and final section (Becoming a Body Whisperer) describes how to take the concepts learned from the first three sections to achieve your best body potential. It includes a brief explanation on how I practice the method on a daily basis, as well as the single most important habit you need to embrace to build and maintain a strong body for life.

I’ve also included homework at the end of each section to help readers make the most of the material. Don’t skip the homework. If you really want to “get it,” you’re going to need to witness and experience everything that’s happening in your body. Hence, I strongly recommend you start a health journal. Not only will it help you keep track of the homework, it will help illuminate the subtle ways your body reacts to different food, exercise and lifestyle choices, as well as the cues its providing to help re-balance it.

In short, by following these principles, you'll not just learn how your body works, you'll have the keys to maintain a healthy, strong body for life!

Douglas Aspine was a cold, calculating bastard who lusted for the riches and power that came with being a public company CEO.

He was forty-five and running out of time when fate dealt him an unexpected opportunity.

An irresistible crime thriller.

The company was old, staid and well-respected, but it was underperforming, and Aspine was determined to turn it around no matter who he had to crush or how many toes he had to stand on.

 Soon he was at war with the company’s employees, unions, suppliers, financiers, and co-directors, but nothing was going to stop him. Not his chairman, not his wife, not his mistress, not the anonymous death threats, and definitely not the media.

 He could almost taste the glory, the riches, and peer recognition he’d craved for so long, but would those who he’d hurt so badly let him enjoy his ill-gotten gains? He knew he had countless detractors and enemies who he contemptuously labeled “losers” and paid them no heed.

 Would this prove to be a miscalculation of monumental proportions?

The CEO is a white-collar crime thriller that will grab you from the first line and take you on an enthralling, surprising and suspenseful ride you will not forget.

Marissa Rooney stands in her daughter’s empty dorm room, a half-used vial of insulin clutched in her trembling hand. Brooke has been missing for days. Her roommate hasn’t seen her since that night in the bar. And if Marissa has Brooke’s insulin, it means that Brooke does not.

But Marissa isn’t alone in her terror. A phantom from her past is lurking in the shadows, waiting in the night, and holding her family captive…

Whether it’s perfume drifting through a room or a touch on the shoulder, the strength of spirit displayed at the end of life is as unique as the individual.

It’s a nurse's story about patients of all beliefs, and their evolution from life to afterlife minus the harps and halos. Most of all, it’s an uplifting and universal story of the golden transformation we will all experience at death, a transformation with the heart of pure love.

They arrive to find the frontier colony strangely deserted. When the shit hits the fan and the Argonauts face a possible alien infestation, it's time to pull out the big guns. Because if there's one thing Rade and his Argonauts really love, it's a good bug hunt.

And this one looks to be the hunt of a lifetime.

WHEN IT'S TERRORIST vs. HURRICANE ... EVERYBODY LOSES!

It's July 5th, and the Cape Cod roadways are clogged with tourists heading home from the holiday weekend and trying to outrun an approaching potentially catastrophic hurricane. But in the blink of an eye, their lives are thrown into chaos when terrorists bring down the bridges to the Cape. Instantly, a half million terrified people have no way to escape. And when the terrorists threaten to release anthrax on the captive population if their demands aren't met, fear turns to all-out panic.

With time running out, Marcus Baldwin, a private investigator and former CIA operative, and Sara Cross, a disgraced ex-homicide detective, are brought together by a sole clue to the identities of the terrorists. They quickly realize that they may be the only ones with even a chance at stopping the plot before it's too late.

With Category 4 Hurricane Chad barreling up the coast on a path for a direct hit on Cape Cod, it becomes frighteningly clear to everyone trapped on what has now become an island--one way or another they are probably all going to die.

Ting-A-Ling is a highly entertaining Dev Haskell Private Investigator mystery.

In Hitchcockian fashion, the telephone rings at two in the morning. PI Dev Haskell answers, half-asleep, to a giggling woman named Danielle. It seems she's found his phone number on a bathroom stall. She's called Dev "for a good time," but what she really wants is for him to deliver a simple message to her former business partner.

It's all fun and games (not to mention funny) til someone goes missing. Next thing he knows, our fair but bumbling hero can’t find his client or her business partner, which turns out to be the least of his problems when he finds himself on the hook for murder, and suddenly haunted by a multitude of childhood secrets.

In a bizarre but compelling mixture of suspense, family drama, and offbeat comedy, Dev once again messily balances both sides of the law in a wacky adventure that will keep you on your toes while laughing out loud.
