After a radical AI neural experiment went wrong, a monster was born.
Before he was stopped, Austin burned and the global markets collapsed. Humanity’s greatest fear was that it could happen again.
When life-support systems in hospitals across the nation suddenly fail, killing hundreds, the cyberattack bears the monster Charlie Moore’s unmistakable signature. It can mean only one thing: The monster is back—this time seemingly as a sentient ghost in the machine.
Or is it another monster altogether?
Miles from civilization with only a tent and a dog, Zach Axton is barely surviving. But isolation is better than watching the people he loves die. To stop the rogue genius Charlie Moore and save Austin, Axton had to become the very thing he hunted. Abandoning his team, walking away from his best friend—and the woman he loved—was the only way to protect them.
Or so he thought…
Axton is the only man who can understand the monsters—and one way or another, he will be rejoining his old team.
A man… a self-improving sentient machine… or both?
In a high-stakes race against time, Axton and his team need to figure out how to stop an enemy with unlimited intelligence and astounding abilities.
Singularity Point is a pulse-pounding techno-thriller perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Brad Taylor, and John Sandford—a story where humanity’s future hangs in the balance, and the line between man and machine has vanished forever.

"Soul Dancing held me hostage on the couch for two days until I breathlessly read the last word. It's an incredible story that invites you to savor so many layers of love: husband and wife, newfound soul mates, and the boundless love for one's children. Your heart will ache for a happy ending and won't be disappointed." Paulette Stout, author, speaker, and podcaster

"Gail Priest delivers a riveting story of love lost, love found, the grief of shattered dreams, and the wonder of life's — and death's — surprises, challenging readers with a timeless question. If you were given a second chance at life, would you take it?" Kathleen Long, USA Today Bestselling Author

When ninety-year-old Shirlene Foster dies, she is shocked to wake up in another woman’s body. Even more astonishing, she’s in a hospital delivery room, about to give birth. Fearing no one will believe her, she attempts to hide her true identity, but acting like a twenty-year-old proves impossible, and she realizes she must tell someone.

Cameron Michaels vowed to raise his niece after his brother abandoned his pregnant girlfriend, Rain. But after Rain has the baby, she changes… drastically. When Shirlene confesses she is inhabiting Rain’s body, Cameron hesitates to believe such a wild story, but it does explain Rain’s complete transition.

While adjusting to her new life and relishing her second chance at motherhood, Shirlene struggles to keep her growing attraction to Cameron in check. But Shirlene soon discovers that her new body may not belong to her for long.

Twenty-five Supreme Court decisions speak in this book—not as legal arguments, but as lived consequences. A ballot that never got counted. A body claimed by the state. A right narrowed until it disappears. 6–3 and 5–4: Betrayal From Within traces how closely divided rulings have reshaped American life.

The Supreme Court was once seen as the conscience of the nation—the last safeguard of rights and equality. 6–3 and 5–4: Betrayal From Within tells a different story.

Across twenty-five landmark decisions of the twenty-first century, this book reveals how the Court has redefined freedom, democracy, and justice itself. Each case—from Bush v. Gore to Dobbs, from Citizens United to Trump v. United States—speaks in its own voice: a taxpayer dollar forced to fund a sermon, a union fee that can no longer be collected.

Through these haunting first-person narratives, the book transforms legal doctrine into lived experience. It asks readers not just to understand these rulings, but to feel them—to see what happens when law becomes ideology and neutrality becomes complicity.

With prose as sharp as its outrage, 6–3 and 5–4 exposes a Court that claims to defend the Constitution while hollowing it out from within. A reckoning for anyone who still believes justice wears a blindfold—and a warning for those who know she doesn’t.

Undisputed: A Leader’s Journey for Empowerмент is both a gripping memoir and a practical guide for anyone seeking to lead with purpose, courage, and conviction. Through decades of ministry, community advocacy, political organizing, and Fortune-level corporate leadership, Rev. Ty Bledsoe reveals how ordinary people can develop extraordinary leadership capacity—no matter their beginnings.

Raised in neighborhoods marked by poverty and systemic inequity, Ty forged a leadership philosophy grounded in faith, service, resilience, and measurable impact. His journey, from surviving life-threatening encounters to becoming the first African American Student Body President at UC Davis, from building diverse coalitions to shaping culture in major companies, offers a rare, multi-sector look at what effective leadership truly requires.

Each chapter highlights a leadership lesson earned through real experience: leading under pressure, navigating conflict, mobilizing teams, elevating marginalized voices, and transforming adversity into strategic strength. These insights extend far beyond personal growth and into the practical realities of leading people, organizations, and movements.

For event planners, organizations, universities, ministries, and companies seeking powerful speakers or leadership development partners, Undisputed showcases Ty’s ability to teach, inspire, and equip audiences with the tools they need to rise.

Whether you are building a career, guiding a community, or stepping into your own leadership calling, Undisputed offers wisdom, clarity, and a blueprint for choosing significance over success—and leading with impact.

“Are you there?”
Silence.
Marc grinned. I’ve been alone too long. He was the last person she would call.
Marcus! I need you!
The words went right by his ear this time, making his breath catch.
You owe me!
Marc winced at the accusation and stopped denying. The time he had feared, and longed for, was here. Angie was finally calling in his marker, but that debt could never be repaid.
Not letting his practical side get in the way, Marc concentrated like she’d taught him when they were kids, but he was unable to keep from wondering if the flood had claimed him. Maybe this is the afterlife with an angel leading me to hell.
You can’t go yet. Not until you help me.
The voice in his mind was clear, as if they were on a phone. He found it helped to pretend they were as his headache increased. “What do you need?”
My life back.
Marc jerked as if slapped, thrown into the past.
Will you come?
Her desperation pulled at his heart. “As quickly as I can.” This would be the fastest swoop he’d ever made. In addition, this fast journey over a short amount of time would be done alone, without the support of his team. “Tell me where.”
Ohio. Cincinnati.
Marc’s heart pounded faster. He’d been there, once. “Two weeks, maybe less.”
A relieved blast of energy exploded from her end.
Marc swayed on his feet as her power sank in, stopping the headache. It had been 15 years since he’d felt that.
You have to hurry…
“What’s wrong?”
The line went dead.
Marc rubbed Dog’s ears, seeing eagerness in the animal’s golden orbs. Clearly, the wolf felt her pull too.
Angie called for me! Marc struggled to control the heart that suddenly felt younger, lighter. It only took the end of the world to force her into it.

From a New York Times bestselling author, a second-chance rom-com about an author who goes viral when readers discover her book’s hero was inspired by a beloved pro hockey player—and her high school crush.

Debut author Gemma Stanton knows romance readers love a bad boy—and she has the perfect prototype for her novel: Mason Moretti. High school hockey god-turned-pro player, Mason was Gemma's first crush, but she couldn't forget the sting of his very public rejection. So, she casts him as a hot-headed Highlander in her spicy new historical romance.

She never expected readers would find out on live TV when a morning show host invites Mason for a surprise on-air reunion . . .

As an aging hockey player with a rep for being ruthless on the ice—and roguish off of it—Mason has an image problem. So, when his meet-cute with Gemma goes viral, Mason proposes they build on the momentum with a few fake dates to boost her book sales—and his sagging profile.

But when the fictional flirting gets a little too real, Mason realizes Gemma actually makes him want to become a better man—someone worthy of her trust and her love.

To escape her strait-laced overbearing sister, Birdie Stauffer auditions for the all-female Versatile Quintet, Chautauqua circuit’s opening act. Through this train-traveling roadshow she experiences the tumultuous 1920s, a modern era of shocking flappers and smuggled whiskey, with the camaraderie of newfound friends. Her exceptional gift of concert whistling entertains more than songbirds as she gains national notoriety and she’s soon entangled in two romantic relationships—one with a dapper circuit manager, the other her fellow pianist. Accompanied by four other musicians—a slang slinging flapper, a confident girl-next-door, a tight-lipped loner, and a virtuoso sapphic—and following a series of traumatic events, Birdie discovers even the best relationships can be filled with misunderstandings. As she learns to trust her intuition, she finds it may cost her love interests, her sister, and maybe even herself.

About the Author

The only constant in life is change—so after multiple doozies, Melora Fern moved from Texas to North Carolina to become herself. Growing up a perpetual new kid she persevered by making-up stories and learned to hone that skill into writing fiction. As a recovering CPA, she now counts treasures and words discovered on her daily hikes. Turning the pages of her grandmother’s Chautauqua scrapbook has opened infinite research rabbit-holes and ignited her debut historical fiction. In addition to all there is with writing, she enjoys her rescue cats, gardening, and losing herself in novels of all genres.

Praise for Whistling Women and Crowing Hens

"Whistling Women and Crowing Hens is an immersive read set in the Chautauqua circuit of the 1920s. Talented whistler and trombonist Birdie Stauffer finds herself a member of a quintet performing throughout the northeast. When small-town Birdie steps into the wider world, she discovers aspects of herself she never knew existed. Increasingly at odds with societal and sisterly expectations, she must choose between following her truth and disappointing the most important people in her life.

Melora Fern’s debut novel offers an unconventional coming of age story set against the backdrop of a nation doing the same. As the propriety of the Victorian era gives way to the anything-goes roaring twenties, women find themselves newly enfranchised and empowered, yet still traditional expectations endure.

Fern’s attention to detail and a cast of unforgettable characters make this book hard to put down. Full of the drama and humor that come from five women sharing close quarters for weeks at a time, Whistling Women and Crowing Hens is at times raucous, tragic, and uplifting. At its heart, this book is about finding one’s voice and singing (or whistling) it loud."

—Culley Holderfield, award-winning author of Hemlock Hollow

Opposites certainly attract for the stranded pop star and small-town baker in this charming slice of romance from the author of the TikTok sensation The Cheat Sheet.

“This modern take on the Hepburn classic Roman Holiday is a quick, fun, slow-burn rom-com.”—Abby Jimenez, bestselling author of The Friend Zone

ONE OF NPR’S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR

Amelia Rose, known as Rae Rose to her adoring fans, is burned-out from years of maintaining her “princess of pop” image. Inspired by her favorite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome . . . Rome, Kentucky, that is. 

When Noah Walker finds Amelia on his front lawn in her broken-down car, he makes it clear he doesn’t have the time or patience for celebrity problems. He’s too busy running the pie shop his grandmother left him and reminding his nosy but lovable neighbors to mind their own damn business. Despite his better judgment, he lets her stay in his guest room—but only until her car is fixed—then she’s on her own. 

Then Noah starts to see a different side of Rae Rose—she’s Amelia: kindhearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. He can’t help but get close to her. Soon she’ll have to return to her glamorous life on tour, but until then, Noah will show Amelia all the charming small-town experiences she’s been missing, and she’ll help him open his heart to more. 

Amelia can’t resist falling for the cozy town and her grumpy tour guide, but even Audrey had to leave Rome eventually.

Anna Dahlberg grew up eating dinner under her father’s war-trophy portrait of Eva Braun.
Fifty years after the war, she discovers what he never did—that her mother and Hitler’s mistress were friends.

The secret surfaces with a mysterious monogrammed handkerchief, and a man, Hannes Ritter, whose Third Reich family history is entwined with Anna’s.

Plunged into the world of the “ordinary” Munich girl who was her mother’s confidante—and a tyrant’s lover—Anna finds her every belief about right and wrong challenged. With Hannes’s help, she retraces the path of two women who met as teenagers, shared a friendship that spanned the years that Eva Braun was Hitler’s mistress, yet never knew that the men they loved had opposing ambitions.

Eva’s story reveals that she never joined the Nazi party, had Jewish friends, and was credited at the Nuremberg Trials with saving 35,000 Allied lives. As Anna's journey leads back through the treacherous years in wartime Germany, it uncovers long-buried secrets and unknown reaches of her heart to reveal the enduring power of love in the legacies that always outlast war.

Although there is also her intense relationship with F’lar himself.
 
But Lessa’s fierceness and courage will be put to the test when an ancient scourge returns to the land: a deadly silver spore that falls from the sky, destroying all it touches.
