Stay Calm and Content : Cat Williams
Stay Calm and Content No Matter What Life Throws At You
Are you sometimes stressed, anxious, or emotional?
Do you ever feel something is missing, even when you think you should be happy?
Are there people with whom you don’t get on well but wish you did?
Have you ever wondered why you behave a certain way, do or don’t do certain things, or have done something you now regret?
This is not a typical self-help book, because self-help books are usually read by people who think they have a problem to solve. This book is for everyone. Using straightforward jargon-free language it discusses many of the difficult issues of life, most of which are likely to affect us or someone we know at one time or another. It includes short discussions of stress, relationships, love affairs, work, parenting, sibling rivalry, motherhood, divorce, weddings, Christmas, teenagers, arguments, criticism, depression, communication, childhood, bullying, chronic pain, self-harm, addiction, suicide, bereavement, kindness, abuse, the battle of the sexes … and more.
People who can stay calm and content no matter what life throws at them all have similar thoughts and attributes which can be learnt by anyone. The central theme of this book is self-esteem and how it is affected every day by our circumstances and the people we come across. We are usually unaware that it is our self-esteem that drives our emotions, thoughts, and actions.
The author’s clients suggested this book be written so anyone could learn how to stay calm and content no matter what life throws at them. Personal stories highlight how you can control or change how you feel about yourself, and how you can positively influence your life and the lives of everyone around you.

Soul Saviour : Ross A Lloyd
Soul Saviour
She was the hottest property on the planet and everyone wanted a piece of her, but some wanted a lot more than just a piece of Lana Richards.
On the surface she was just the latest hot American pop star flaunting her beauty and talent to make it in the fickle entertainment industry and this made her a prime target for those who mix terror with religion. But to others who knew much more about her, including just how pure of heart she really was, Lana Richards represented the perfect final element necessary for bringing about an apocalyptic destiny for us all.
While on a concert tour of the “Land Down Under” Lana’s survival and her very soul would come to depend upon one unique individual. Someone who, perhaps by chance, or perhaps by ultimate design she would encounter and who would intervene to stand up for her, to defend her and to fall for her, while defying all odds and Lana’s own seemingly predetermined dark fate.
Would the efforts of a loner, a single pawn in the eternal struggle between good and evil be enough to spare Lana from an unspeakable doom and thereby the world from everlasting darkness?

Reality Boulevard : Melissa Jo Peltier
Reality Boulevard
New York Times bestseller Melissa Jo Peltier turns her attention to the brilliant, back-stabbing world of prime-time television in this wickedly funny new novel.
Peltier has worked in entertainment for more than 20 years, making the darkly funny Reality Boulevard a true insider’s view of Hollywood and some of America’s biggest shows.
In it, we see Oscar-winning producer Marty Maltzman and his staff out of a job – and out on the streets – when long-running docu-series Lights and Sirens is unexpectedly axed. But the Hollywood the team now faces is full of Kardashians and Real Housewives, and they need to survive in a world where it’s very hard to tell what’s true and what isn’t – both on and off screen.
Oscar and Emmy winning documentarian and veteran reality producer (Big Brother, Rescue 911) Arnold Shapiro called the novel “the best satirical look behind the scenes of reality television ever written”, adding: “It contains more truth than you would believe.”
Todd Milliner, producer of Grimm and Hot in Cleveland, said: “During her 20-plus years in the business, Melissa Jo Peltier had a front-row seat, watching it all unfold. In this novel, she puts her dry wit and storytelling ability to good use, pulling back the curtain to reveal what really goes on.
Entertainment writer Reel Life with Jane says: ” Her characterizations and descriptions, in particular, are original and visceral, and the book is simply a fun and engaging read.”
Kirkus Reviews declares Reality Boulevard “a zinging satire” and writes: “Can Marty trust the gorgeous, much younger actress Crimson Fennel, who’s making a play for him? Can anyone trust anyone else in Hollywood? Peltier uses her insider knowledge of Los Angeles, the TV industry and its players… In this smart, funny, insightful novel, reality TV becomes all too real, forcing several characters to confront their decisions. Peltier examines the Hollywood world of writers, producers, rich kids, actors, wannabes and con men with a keen and often compassionate eye. A dead-on satire—with a heart—of the reality TV scene from a knowledgeable, witty insider.”

Coming to Rosemont : Barbara Hinske
Coming to Rosemont: The First Novel in the Rosemont Series
Forensic accountant Maggie Martin survives the sudden death of her husband, the charismatic President of Windsor College, only to uncover the secrets of his carefully-concealed double life.
Dealing with the financial and emotional wreckage left in Paul’s wake, she is stunned to learn he inherited an estate known as Rosemont in the seemingly-serene Midwestern town of Westbury. Why had he never told her?
Maggie travels to Westbury for the stated purpose of listing Rosemont for immediate sale, but what she really seeks are answers to her all-consuming questions about her sham of a marriage; her sham of a life.
She never anticipated the seductive charm of Rosemont. Throwing her trademark caution to the wind, and over the objections of her opinionated grown children, she pulls up stakes and moves halfway across the country, determined to make a fresh start in Westbury. Behind closed doors, however, lurks a cadre of evildoers, playing with multiple wild cards of fraud, embezzlement and arson.
With a quiet, orderly – and distinctively solitary – life in mind, Maggie is instead thrown headlong into a crusade against political corruption, where defeat and retreat are not an option. Still bearing the scars of betrayal, will she find joy, romance and possibility in Westbury?
This fast-paced, smart novel has enough twists and turns to make the reader want to buckle in!
