Attempts

 




Attempts


Asant finds himself tempted by desires to taste and have what others have, and chooses to rob a bank; however, at the last second he finds himself unable to go through with the robbery. Even so, the prospect of jail overwhelms his psyche. His spiritual mentor, and caretaker from the time of Asant’s teens, is direct, “You must face your actions...”
Asant makes his choice and decides to evade and escape his country, in one way spurred by a deep-seated fear, in another by the same courage inherent in every person. As for the fear in him, it had grown from knowing how his father was tortured and violated while himself in prison; while the courage was supported and ignited over the years by his mentor.
The mentor reiterates that it is Asant’s choice, and if it is to leave country, the mentor suggests doing a tremendous good by helping a people entrenched in war. Asant follows the mentor’s guidance and travels across borders in attempt to redeem himself. His strength grows through fortuitous encounters – a border-crossing courier who becomes a companion; a caravan leader who provides sustenance; a star-gazing clan chief; an individual who feels responsible for starting a war... Through it all he experiences how physical reality manifests from and intersects with spiritual reality, and along the way gains strength and trust to endure.

Full-Tilt Boogie: A Jade Hui Mystery

 


Full-Tilt Boogie: A Jade Hui Mystery


Something’s going on in Youngstown, Ohio—and it isn’t pretty. Newly assigned to the field office, Special Agent Jade Hui is stumped by her predecessor’s do-nothing record when there’s every indication something big is going to happen. An Aryan Brotherhood convict tells her a new designer drug from Europe is about to hit the streets of the Midwest and Youngstown will be the launching pad. Next, a female prizefighter winds up dead in a dumpster behind a bar with a shady reputation. That’s only the beginning of what turns out to be, in cop slang, a full-tilt boogie with Youngstown becoming one big crime scene.


Before it’s over, Jade will find herself in combat with some extremely disturbing characters, including a dubious former Hollywood filmmaker, his two thugs—all three employees of the most sinister character of all, one who goes by the name ”the emissary.” This someone is far deadlier than anyone she ever worked a case against in the “Little Odessa” of Brighton Beach in her last posting.

Don't Wanna Fall in Love

 


Don't Wanna Fall In Love 


Imagine having a childhood filled with love, joy, and warmth. Now, imagine what happens when that rug is swept right out from under you, causing you to crash painfully onto the floor and, even after you manage to get back up, your heart decides to stay - bloodied, broken, covered in cat hair and believing true love is the destroyer of lives. This is that story...but funnier.

Martha Cooper is a beloved nurse during the week but spends her weekends as the lead singer for a popular cover band called The Cover Stealers. Thanks to a not-so-happy childhood, she keeps her romantic relationships casual and free from complications but, after years of being perfectly content with that situation, Logan Ashford enters her life and makes it clear he’s not looking for casual. Since Martha enjoys how she feels in his presence, she can’t bring herself to keep her distance but concocts a list of rules to abide by in order to protect her heart. While Logan’s charming and thoughtful nature chips away at said rules, Martha must make the difficult choice to pick her lint-covered heart back up off the floor or let go of her chance at true love.

Interstellar Reporter Danica Star: Unto War


Danica Star, a journalist, enters the Vega Star system in October 2945 on a hunch. Danica watched as a dark shadow loomed over the planet Aremis shortly before the attack on Vega II began.

A rag-tag group of military ships scrambled hours before the second fleet arrived to aid the civilian evacuation, all while holding off the Vanduul long enough to get everyone out. Before the 2nd fleet swooped in, before the military victory, before the politicians feigned interest, and before the Great Speech...

My Exiled Alpha Prince

 


My Exiled Alpha Prince
Author: Xiao
This is an online book available exclusively on the MyFavReads platform.


Steamy werewolf romance, reckless adventures, and a whole world to discover! 


My Exiled Alpha Prince, by author Xiao, is a fast-paced and heartwarming story about growing up and finding one's destiny, accepting new feelings, and understanding what a soulmate is.


Nina and her sister have been alone for over a decade since their parents died. With her only priority - protecting her sister - Nina battled her way through life. 

Their hopes for a bright future were extinguished when the sisters realized they sisters ended up in the hands of a vicious criminal group.

They were saved by a handsome young man who wanted Nina to be his.

Used to worrying about her sister and shielding her from evil, Nina wasn't ready to be protected. Nina was new to the emotions the handsome stranger caused, and her whole being shook at the attraction she felt for him. 

As if that was not enough, Nina’s mind was crowded with a strange voice pushing her into his arms when they were together. 

In this story, Nina discovers a new world, little by little, and understands that everything is part of a bigger picture. Her meeting with Nicholas and her sudden urges, that rumbling voice in her head, and even her own body seem to accommodate too well to the new world of Weres, how shapeshifters call themselves.

When the shadows from her past reappear, she has to choose between her fate and running away from everything but… can she run away?


Excerpt:


"We have a pact," he reminds me.

"We do, but I haven't heard the conditions," I say. "What do I have to do?"

"I will protect you from now on. From those traffickers or anyone with ill intentions. You won't lack anything, Nina."

"And in exchange?" I say.

"You will be mine," he murmurs.

His tone is low, and his eyes avoid me. As if he's embarrassed by these words.

"What do you mean, exactly?"

"You'll be my mate," he repeats.

Mate? Like, will we play baseball together and crack jokes? What in the world does he need a mate for?

His eyes return to me. He's still a little awkward, but it's nothing compared to a few seconds ago. Now his eyes are fixed on mine, and I can't move away because something prevents me.

"Stay by my side. That will be enough for now," Nicholas says.

He walks past the table, his steps silent and frighteningly slow. He doesn't let my attention escape; I don't know how he's doing it, but it's working. "Everything else will come naturally, with time," he whispers.
