Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JULEP THOUGHT SURVIVING THE MOB WAS HARD... ...but surviving her guilt is another thing entirely. Running her investigation agency is Julep's only distraction from her losses over the last few months. With a few new minions on Julep's payroll, she's been taking on various investigation jobs, including one for Mrs. Antolini--the wife of a computer engineer arrested for embezzling a whole lot of money from his company. She's convinced he did it at the behest of the New World Initiative, a leadership cult that just so happens to be run by a grifter who supposedly went straight. Julep's not so sure she wants the case--going up against any grifter, even an ex-grifter, is no joke--but Mrs. Antolini's story links to a mysterious blue fairy, and potentially to Julep's own missing mother. To complicate matters, someone's put a contract on Julep's head, so even if she manages to take down the con artist at the top of the New World Initiative, she may not live to tell the tale. With a war on multiple fronts, and her enigmatic shadow, Dani Ivanov, as her only protection, Julep must face the ghosts of her past to even have a chance at surviving the present. Will Julep escape the clutches of everyone who wants her dead? Worse, will she escape the burgeoning feelings she's been catching for her mob-enforcer bodyguard? Get the book now to find out!

Book excerpt: The New York Times Bestseller Recently retired WWE superstar AJ Mendez Brooks is a powerhouse—strong, quirky, and totally confident. But that wasn’t always the case. With humor and tremendous heart, she opens up for the first time about her harrowing struggle to understand her demons and the diagnosis that helped her gain control over her life. Everything I was told should be my greatest insecurities and weaknesses, everything that I’ve been labeled—SHORT, NERDY, SKINNY, WEAK, IMPULSIVE, UGLY, TOMBOY, POOR, REBEL, LOUD, FREAK, CRAZY—turned out to be my greatest strengths. I didn’t become successful in spite of them. I became successful because of them. Growing up AJ was a quiet girl trying to act “normal” when she felt anything but. As her family struggled with drug addiction, poverty, and mental illness, she found escape through comic books and video games, and was inspired by the tough and unconventional female characters. It wasn’t until she discovered pro wrestling that she learned superheroes could be real. Determined to become the superhero she’d always admired, AJ trained and sacrificed for years to achieve her dream of wrestling professionally. Yet she quickly faced industry pressure to play the role of the damsel in distress and to dress more provocatively to cater to male fans. But she fought back and created an ass-kicking alter ego that was a genuine representation of herself: nerdy, enthusiastic, and a little bit crazy. With humor and tremendous heart, AJ opens up for the first time about her harrowing struggle to understand her demons and the mental illness diagnosis that helped her gain control over her life. What most people view as a hardship, AJ embraced as inspiration for her superhero persona, shattering the stigma attached to mental illness. Charting her journey from a scrappy girl in an unstable home to an empowered wrestling champion, Crazy Is My Superpower is an unflinchingly honest story and brave confessional about her long road to self-acceptance.
