Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by true events, The Moment of Truth finds a Texan art student facing down life, death, love, and glory in the bullfighting rings of 1950s Mexico. Texan art student Kathleen Boyd has been dreaming about becoming a matador since her beloved father took her to the bullfighting ring when she was just a child. Now a young woman, her disapproving fiancé and her practical-minded mother see her dream only as a foolish flight of fancy. Nevertheless, Kathleen relocates to Mexico and finds herself under the instruction of Fermin, a retired matador who is intent on asserting his dominance in their partnership. Though taking on a female apprentice is unheard of, Fermin sees Kathleen’s undeniable talent and promises that she’ll one day perform at the prestigious Plaza Mexico bullring. While Kathleen struggles to perform alongside the unwelcoming men of Mexico’s bullfighting scene, she is befriended by Julio, better known as El Cabrito—The Kid. Much to Fermin’s displeasure, not only does Julio show Kathleen techniques that defy his strict instruction, but a forbidden romance quickly ignites between them. As time passes, Kathleen’s confidence in her ability increases—though so too do her suspicions of Fermin’s intentions. She has become a sensation, selling out arenas as La Diosa Tejana, the Texan Goddess. But while Fermin gets rich, Kathleen’s pay remains pitiful and her instructor’s control over her life remains absolute. Will she always be a vehicle for another person’s success? Or will she finally face her own moment of truth and seize the success that she has worked toward for so long, in a world that has always belonged to men?

Book excerpt: When attorney Jack Newlin discovers his wife dead in their home, he's convinced he knows who killed her—and is equally determined to hide the truth. He decides to frame himself for murder, and to seal his fate he hires the most inexperienced lawyer he can find: a reluctant rookie by the name of Mary DiNunzio from the hot Philadelphia firm of Rosato & Associates. But hiring Mary may turn out to be his biggest mistake. She doubts Jack's confession, and her ethics and instincts tell her she can't defend a man who wants to convict himself. Smarter, gutsier, and more persistent than she has any right to be, Mary sets out to prove what really happened—because, as any lawyer knows, a case is never as simple as it seems. And nothing is ever certain until the final moment of truth.

Funny and romantic, this effervescent story about family, friendship, and finding yourself is perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han. Seventeen-year-old Abby Turner’s summer isn’t going the way she’d planned. She has a not-so-secret but definitely unrequited crush on her best friend, Cooper. She hasn’t been able to manage her mother’s growing issues with anxiety. And now she’s been rejected from an art show because her work “has no heart.” So when she gets another opportunity to show her paintings, Abby isn’t going to take any chances. Which is where the list comes in. Abby gives herself one month to do ten things, ranging from face a fear (#3) to learn a stranger’s story (#5) to fall in love (#8). She knows that if she can complete the list, she’ll become the kind of artist she’s always dreamed of being. But as the deadline approaches, Abby realizes that getting through the list isn’t as straightforward as it seems . . . and that maybe—just maybe—she can’t change her art if she isn’t first willing to change herself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moment of Truth: Guru/Gang Starr Life & Death Story by Solar At last the whole story is ready to be told... Boston born as Keith Elam, Guru-Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal-and his talents made him into an acclaimed rapper and producer, named by The Source as #30 of Top 50 Lyricists of All Time just for a start. He was an innovative pioneer in Hip-Hop jazz and a chart ruler during the late 1980's & 90's. Respected for both the work he accomplished as the founder of Gang Starr, and also his own critically successful solo projects like the Jazzmatazz Volumes, he was by all rights a star in the game. His lyrical gift spoke to an entire hip-hop generation, that would have heard even greater music from him had the worst of disasters not hit. Once he was a sick man, he found himself vilified in the media and eventually unable to speak at all. At the center of this story is his producer, longtime friend, and business partner Solar who has finally come with his full version of the mysterious events surrounding Guru's final years and during his split with DJ Premier. It's been over seven years since that time and the effects of it still linger. Rumors of everything from his sexuality to his mental state in his final days all hang around any Google search about Guru's life and death. Solar is ready to clear both their names and free Guru's true legacy for his fans. Behind Guru's life, unfinished questions hang that sound like the background of a thriller. From mysterious murders around the Gang Starr camp, a seat-of-the-pants gun trial to police investigations and murder attempts on his own life. Not to mention the heated and very public war of words between Guru's family and Solar, who was appointed a medical proxy for the ailing rapper. This book airs Solar's controversial position in a life story about to have its final moment of truth.

But when she receives it the first morning of her senior trip to Florida, her life is sent into a tailspin. Soon she's questioning her seemingly perfect relationship with her boyfriend, Derrick, her attraction to the school player, Beckett, and whether ending her friendship with Aven and Quinn, her former BFFs, was one of the biggest mistakes of her life.

Over the course of the series, each girl will learn about life, love, and the truth about the fight that ended their perfect friendship.

Download or read book Beyond My Moment of Truth written by David T. Gilbert and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After completing my first book, I sat down and took notes of what was learned from what I did, and I must admit that I had learned an enormous amount of information about publishing. There were things to consider, like preparation of work, presentation of poetry, promotional strategies, etc., and still having Parkinson's Disease didn't do me any favours. But as I have always stated, you can't keep a champion down, and with my God being so gracious in more ways than I am able to acknowledge, I press on with my quest, to try and give as many people as I am able, a solid, even chance of salvation. My style of poetry may be somewhat unusual, maybe a bit out of the ordinary, but I have always tried to make my work as appealing as I can to as many as there are who love the simplicity of my work. I have tried to reduce the introductions of each poem to a minimum, but I still value the introductions, as they help to bring clarity to the point that I am attempting to put across, and therefore, very few misunderstandings and upsets are made. It must be emphasized that my poetry expresses mu point of view on subjects written about, how I actually see things from my angle, you may see differently, or may even disagree, but no matter what, I have designed my work specifically with the task of getting people to open up about the topics I write about, because there is nothing like a good, open debate to allow people the opportunity to communicate with each other, and so open up a door for an opportunity to present all with a chance of salvation. As I wrote in my last book, my primary objective is the saving of souls, and by presenting my work in such a simple way, I may assist people to realize that Jesus died for all, and so salvation is also for all who dare to believe.
