And don't miss the author's highly anticipated new book, In the Wild Light! Every Friday night, best friends Delia and Josie become Rayne Ravenscroft and Delilah Darkwood, hosts of the campy creature feature show Midnite Matinee on the local cable station TV Six. But with the end of senior year quickly approaching, the girls face tough decisions about their futures. Josie has been dreading graduation, as she tries to decide whether to leave for a big university and chase her dream career in mainstream TV. And Lawson, one of the show's guest performers, a talented MMA fighter with weaknesses for pancakes, fantasy novels, and Josie, is making her tough decision even harder. Scary movies are the last connection Delia has to her dad, who abandoned the family years ago. If Midnite Matinee becomes a hit, maybe he'll see it and want to be a part of her life again. And maybe Josie will stay with the show instead of leaving her behind, too. As the tug-of-war between growing up and growing apart tests the bonds of their friendship, Josie and Delia start to realize that an uncertain future can be both monstrous...and momentous. "I laughed, cried, and fell over-the-moon in love with Rayne & Delilah's Midnite Matinee." --JENNIFER NIVEN, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places and Holding Up the Universe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready for three wonderful and heart-warming books? The final boxset in the Finding Home Series packs a serious punch. It includes: Finding Home, Finding Balance, and Finding Peace. Finding Home: (Book Six) "This is a rollicking adventure filled with the most unlikely (but welcome) coincidences and drama as Beth and Cole strive to find a place where they can both belong. Finding Home is a perfect 10." –Publisher's Weekly. There’s no place (that really feels) like home. Cole's mother married the Hereditary Prince of Liechtenstein when he was only three years old. When his step-father’s failing health requires Cole to step in and help out, he does it without complaint, knowing he can never ascend the throne. When his step-father offers to adopt him, Cole knows it's unlikely the other members of the Princely Family will ever accept an adopted heir. Even so, part of him wants to try. Beth grew up surrounded by loving siblings and doting parents, but she wasn't born into this idyllic family. When her biological mother reaches out, explaining that she’s a pop star in Europe, Beth feels as if fate has orchestrated their reunion. Her bio mom is impressed with Beth's skill at the piano and invites her to join the European tour. Beth jumps at the chance. The reality isn't quite the dream she imagined. When Beth finds herself in a jam in the middle of Europe, can Cole rescue the damsel in distress, even though he's not actually a prince? And can Cole and Beth find the true meaning of home. . . together? Finding Balance: (Book Seven) Gone. . . but not forgotten? Amy loved everything about her mom: her smile, her smell, her gentle laugh. On the day her mom died, it felt as though the sun went dark. Her dad bought a house with wheels and they started moving, but no matter how many new places they went, the sun never came back out. At least, not until Mary showed up and handed Amy a box of Froot Loops. Amy loved Mary from the very first day—almost as much as her dad did. Amy began calling Mary "Mom" shortly after the wedding without a second thought. After all, Mary cared for her, taught her, and loved her, all the things that moms do. But when her mom’s sister comes to visit, Aunt Anica has plenty of questions. And now, Amy does too. Does loving Mary mean Amy doesn't love her real mom? Or is there somehow room for all the love Amy feels in her heart? Finding Peace: (Book Eight) Keeping score is the quickest way to lose. Anica Maggard was born under a lucky star. Her big sister became her very best friend. Her debut novel was an instant bestseller. She lived in the apartment of her dreams at the age of twenty-five. But luck changes. . . and sometimes it runs out entirely. Cancer steals her sister, and that loss robs Anica of her words. Years later, she still can't even find the desire to search for them. Ethan Trainor coasts through life, trading on his boyish grin, cerulean eyes, and ample trust fund to succeed. No one has ever bothered to peel back the façade and discover that Ethan's glorious life didn't begin with a silver spoon. It began with bars on his windows. A boiling rage simmers just below the surface, and when the demons from his past swing back around, that fury threatens to consume him. When fate drags Ethan to Atlanta to confront his past and Anica there to search for her future, can they both find the peace they need to let go? Or will they lose what really matters in the process?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EXPERIENCE MORE BY DOING LESS IF YOU LIVE A LIFE OF CONSTANT JOY, BALANCE, AND EASY MODERATION, THEN THIS BOOK ISN’T FOR YOU. But if you are like the rest of us, every day presents a blinding rush of options and opportunities, risks and benefits. And no matter what, you are going to miss out on something that might be better than what you choose. Mix this anxiety with an unhealthy dose of fear in all its various forms, and you have a recipe for a confused, neurotic, and unhappy life. But there is hope for this present-day malady. Shattering the popular conception that we should say yes to everything lest we miss out on something better, Michael Rossmann outlines a practical plan for developing emotional courage, increasing focus, and learning to say no to what depletes us. In turn, we end up with the space and ability to say yes to what energizes us and gives our lives more meaning, vitality, and purpose. Blending personal stories, wisdom, and humor with cutting-edge research, Rossmann’s counterintuitive approach to the challenges of daily living provides readers with a roadmap to experience the freedom that comes from learning to discern what’s best for you, setting boundaries, and making a commitment to what matters most in your life.

Mary Tobin, PhD (Holistic Medicine) Author, “Holistic Healing Power” *** Within the ordinary life is the raw material for gold. Carla Weis uses her personal story to help us see the potential that exists when a life is honored and excavated for its deep wisdom. As an initiate, she helps to draw the connects between the natural evolution of our life’s unfolding and the potential that exists in all of us to reach new levels of spiritual awareness. How do we become an embodied spiritual being? Who is privileged with this opportunity? Carla Weis demonstrates how the natural unfolding of life can hold all the raw materials for realizing one’s true self and purpose. That we are all this privileged; we just need to know how to look. Whether powerful and miraculous or mundane and commonplace, the eyes with which we look at the foundational material of our life makes all the difference in what we can make from this raw material. Carla Weis uses her life story, told with both simplicity and almost nonchalant introspection to help us see how the truth of who we are is concealed, and then can be revealed and made conscious as we journey through our life. And when and if we are ready, what we can do to bring our raw essence into self-realization. Kate Siner , PhD (Psychology) Co-Author with Jack Canfield Host, Real Answers Podcast
