Snow Ridge Mysteries, The Complete Series: A Small Town Murder Mystery Box Set
Author: Lee, Emma
FREE
Cozy Mystery
From Book 1: After her painful and heartbreaking divorce, Bonnie Mayberry thought her life was over. The numbness, the disbelief in what had happened and the fear of what would come next ensured that her every thought was tinged with doubt. 💔 Hoping for a fresh start, she’s packed up, said her goodbyes and moved to the small town of Snow Ridge, New Hampshire.
Settling down in an old, renovated farmhouse 🏡, she plans to focus on the simple things in life. And, in time, she is determined to get back to some semblance of normalcy. But, apparently, that is not going to happen any time soon…
The young girl at the local bookstore Bonnie frequents has been murdered. 📚 She was one of the few with whom Bonnie has become friendly during her short time in town. And whether it’s her mysterious past, her reserved nature or simply the relative ease in pinning the blame on the outsider, the police have Bonnie at the top of their list of suspects.
Now, if she wishes to avoid a prison sentence for a crime she didn’t commit, it appears as if Bonnie is going to have to prove her own innocence. In doing so, she’ll uncover a crooked politician, unveil a hidden monster and unearth a web of secrets & lies that certain residents of the town have spent their lives concealing. And, with a little luck, she may just survive long enough to clear her good name. ✨

Arriving in the vibrant era of post-punk and new wave music 🎸, Keith relishes being back in his younger body, but soon, there are important tasks at hand.
Resuming his old role as a tabloid journalist, Keith finds himself thrust into the news stories of the day, and quickly realises it’s not only his life he needs to turn around. Can he rectify past mistakes, avert disasters, and reshape both his future and that of others? 🎭
Join Keith and immerse yourself in the events, music, and culture of the early 1980s in this engaging and thought-provoking time travel tale. 🎶
1980 is part of the anthology series A Year in the Life. Each book revisits a different aspect of life in the 1980s, and each story can be enjoyed standalone.

For anyone who lived through the ‘80s or is fascinated by the decade, Ayres delivers both nostalgia and substance. Unlike heavy sci-fi time travel stories, this is lighter fare—a “what if” story focused on personal redemption and second chances, wrapped in the soundtrack and atmosphere of post-punk London. Think Stephen King’s 11/22/63 meets High Fidelity, with a British tabloid twist. Readers particularly enjoy how Ayres balances the time travel mechanics with genuine character growth and historical detail. If you love books that transport you to another era (literally, in this case) and you have any affection for the 1980s, this engaging series offers the perfect escape—plus the chance to relive one of music’s most innovative decades.

Moby Dick: or, the White Whale
Author: Melville, Herman
FREE
Classic Fiction about Huge Fish & Mammals
Moby-Dick; or, The Whale is an 1851 epic novel by American writer Herman Melville. The book is centered on the sailor Ishmael’s narrative of the maniacal quest of Ahab, captain of the whaling ship Pequod, for vengeance against Moby Dick, the giant white sperm whale that bit off his leg on the ship’s previous voyage. 🐋
A contribution to the literature of the American Renaissance, Moby-Dick was published to mixed reviews, was a commercial failure, and was out of print at the time of the author’s death in 1891. Its reputation as a Great American Novel was established only in the 20th century, after the 1919 centennial of its author’s birth. ⚓
William Faulkner said he wished he had written the book himself, and D. H. Lawrence called it “one of the strangest and most wonderful books in the world” and “the greatest book of the sea ever written.” Its opening sentence, “Call me Ishmael,” is among world literature’s most famous. 📚
Melville began writing Moby-Dick in February 1850 and finished 18 months later, a year after he had anticipated. Melville drew on his experience as a common sailor from 1841 to 1844, including on whalers, and on wide reading in whaling literature. The white whale is modeled on a notoriously hard-to-catch albino whale Mocha Dick, and the book’s ending is based on the sinking of the whaleship Essex in 1820. 🌊
The detailed and realistic descriptions of sailing, whale hunting and of extracting whale oil, as well as life aboard ship among a culturally diverse crew, are mixed with exploration of class and social status, good and evil, and the existence of God.
The book’s literary influences include Shakespeare, Thomas Carlyle, Sir Thomas Browne and the Bible. In addition to narrative prose, Melville uses styles and literary devices ranging from songs, poetry, and catalogs to Shakespearean stage directions, soliloquies, and asides. In August 1850, with the manuscript perhaps half finished, he met Nathaniel Hawthorne and was deeply impressed by his Mosses from an Old Manse, which he compared to Shakespeare in its cosmic ambitions. This encounter may have inspired him to revise and deepen Moby-Dick, which is dedicated to Hawthorne, “in token of my admiration for his genius.” 🎭
Why I’m including this: Sometimes the classics are free for a reason—they belong to all of us. Moby-Dick is routinely listed among the greatest American novels ever written, praised by literary giants from Faulkner to D.H. Lawrence. But here’s what many people don’t realize: it’s also a rip-roaring adventure story about obsession, revenge, and the sea. Yes, Melville includes chapters on whale biology and the technical details of 19th-century whaling, but that authenticity (drawn from his own years as a sailor) grounds the epic scope of Ahab’s mad quest. The opening line—”Call me Ishmael”—is instantly recognizable for good reason: it invites you into one of literature’s most ambitious tales about humanity’s relationship with nature, fate, and our own destructive tendencies. If you’ve never read it, or tried and bounced off in high school, this is your chance to discover why it’s endured. The book influenced everyone from Cormac McCarthy to Patrick O’Brian, and understanding Moby-Dick means understanding a huge chunk of American literary tradition. It’s dense, it’s philosophical, it’s sometimes challenging—but it’s also genuinely thrilling when Ahab finally confronts his white whale. Give it a chance; you’ll see why it’s a masterpiece.
Love and Ohana Drama: a Dysfunctional Family Romantic Comedy (Twist of Fate Series Book 1)
Author: Baldwin, Melissa

Clean & Wholesome Romance
Sometimes the most challenging situations bring the most happiness... 🌺
I’m Cora Fletcher, a twenty-something book-loving public relations executive, living with my overly Zen best friend and my attention-loving cat. 📚 I’m newly single and focusing on my exciting career, so I feel like I’m in a good place. I’ve even been invited on an all-expenses-paid Hawaiian vacation! ✈️ The only catch? It’s a family reunion... and my family can be a lot to handle. 😅
But I’m determined not to let that get in the way. However, the ohana drama starts even before we board the plane. As usual, there’s my sister-in-law, who’s bent on causing friction, the self-centered cousins, and my aunt who loves to party a bit too much. 🍹 My mom has filled the itinerary with endless activities, and she’s even invited my ex-boyfriend in a misguided attempt to get us back together. 💔
I feel overwhelmed, but then I get a blast from my past that could change my life forever. This is one reunion I did not see coming... 🌴
Will I make it through a week of family togetherness? And will I be able to say aloha to someone I thought was out of my life forever? 💕
The appeal: Melissa Baldwin specializes in relatable contemporary romance with a healthy dose of family chaos—the kind that feels real because we’ve all lived through some version of it. This first book in the Twist of Fate series takes the destination romance trope and adds a family reunion’s worth of dysfunction, delivering both the escape of a Hawaiian setting and the cringe-worthy recognition of family dynamics we all know too well. Perfect for readers who enjoy Emily Giffin’s character-driven romances or Sophie Kinsella’s humorous take on modern life, Baldwin creates a heroine who’s likable, flawed, and navigating the same work-life-family balance we all struggle with. The “clean and wholesome” label means you get the romance and emotional payoff without explicit content—ideal for readers who want swoon-worthy moments and genuine chemistry without the bedroom scenes. If you love books where the romance is just one part of a larger story about finding yourself, dealing with family, and figuring out what makes you happy, pack your bags for this Hawaiian escape that’s equal parts heartwarming and hilariously frustrating.
The Shekinah Legacy (A Charlotte Ansari Thriller Book 1)
Author: Lindberg, Gary
FREE
Conspiracy Thrillers
International cable TV journalist Charlotte Ansari and her Asperger’s son are caught literally in the crossfire of history when terrorists, the CIA, Mossad (Israeli intelligence) and the Vatican all converge in a pulse-pounding search for two relics that could eviscerate Christianity and forever change the balance of power in the world. 🌍
Three decades ago, Charlotte’s mother suddenly vanished with no trace. The mystery was never solved. Then suddenly, on the same day that Charlotte’s home is attacked by terrorists, her son receives an email from the grandmother that he has never known. 💻
The coded message catapults Charlotte and her son on a dangerous mission to India and Kashmir to find the only objects that can save the old woman’s life. Unfortunately, Charlotte and her autistic son don’t know what they are looking for. 🔍
The Shekinah Legacy is a thriller in the tradition of Dan Brown, Steve Berry and James Rollins. In this provocative novel, author Gary Lindberg uses the form of the thriller to explore the limits and perils of belief. ⚠️
★★★★★ “The Shekinah Legacy” is a well-written thriller in the style of Dan Brown where long-held religious beliefs are turned upside down and challenged. The story is filled with the twists and turns that make a novel great, and its plotline continues believably through each revelation as the reader finds out which characters can be trusted and which ones are expendable. The story’s ending is meant to be a shocker and it is, concluding a very well crafted story. (Alice D. for Reader’s Favorite)
What pulled me in: Gary Lindberg enters the religious conspiracy thriller arena—territory dominated by Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon series—with a fresh angle: a cable news journalist and her son with Asperger’s syndrome racing against terrorists, intelligence agencies, and the Vatican to find artifacts that challenge Christianity itself. The inclusion of Charlotte’s neurodivergent son adds both heart and unique problem-solving perspectives to the typical thriller formula. Perfect for readers who devoured The Da Vinci Code, Steve Berry’s Cotton Malone series, or James Rollins’ Sigma Force novels and are hungry for more globe-trotting archaeological mysteries with religious stakes. Reader’s Favorite gave it five stars and praised its “well-crafted story” with genuine twists. What sets it apart is Lindberg’s willingness to ask uncomfortable questions about faith and history while delivering the page-turning action readers expect. The international scope—from Kashmir to India, with multiple intelligence agencies in play—gives it genuine geopolitical weight. If you’re drawn to thrillers that combine historical mysteries, religious artifacts, and conspiracies that reach to the highest levels of power, The Shekinah Legacy delivers a thought-provoking ride that will have you questioning everything you thought you knew.

Author: Gallick, Sarah
Regularly $17.99, Today $2.99
Christian Saints & Sainthood
“A fascinating collection that profiles more than 400 inspiring Catholic women.” —Library Journal 📚
Most books about the saints are thin on women, especially contemporary women. Even Fr. Alban Butler’s popular Lives of the Saints lists far more men than women. No book about the saints could ignore such beloved early martyrs as Agnes of Rome and Lucy of Syracuse, but this new book will introduce you to many new women who have been canonized or beatified in recent decades. ✝️
Among them are martyrs and mystics, rebellious daughters, loving wives and mothers, reformed prostitutes, restless visionaries, and humble recluses. Of the hundreds of women mentioned, 159 have been canonized or beatified since 1979. Approximately 100 of them lived in the twentieth century. 🕊️
This book is also unique in that it uses the saint’s own words wherever possible, taking advantage of newly discovered archives, memoirs, and other primary sources. It includes resources such as internet shrines and other websites, as well as little-known information on the canonization process. ⭐
“A beautiful and concise guide to the luminous women who inspire us to deeper faith.” —Edward L. Beck, author of God Underneath: Spiritual Memoirs of a Catholic Priest
The appeal: Sarah Gallick has created something genuinely needed in Catholic publishing: a comprehensive reference that centers women’s voices in the story of sainthood. With over 400 profiles, this book is both a spiritual resource and a historical document, showing how women have lived holy lives across every century and culture. What sets this apart is Gallick’s commitment to using primary sources—the saints’ own words from letters, diaries, and writings—rather than secondhand accounts. This approach brings these holy women to life in an immediate, personal way. The inclusion of 159 saints canonized or beatified since 1979 means you’ll discover modern women whose struggles and triumphs mirror our own, from St. Teresa of Calcutta to lesser-known martyrs and mystics. Library Journal praised it as “fascinating,” and Fr. Edward Beck called it “beautiful and concise.” Perfect for Catholics seeking role models, students of Church history, or anyone interested in women’s spiritual lives across the ages. The book also demystifies the canonization process and provides online resources for further exploration. At this price, it’s an invaluable addition to any Catholic library.
The Good Boy: A Great Fall or Halloween Read
Author: Hayward, Stella
Regularly $3.99, Today $1.99
Romantic Comedy
In this whimsical romance for fans of Ashley Poston and Erin Sterling, a woman confronts her past and her unresolved feelings for the boy next door as they work together to reverse a wish gone awry. ✨
On the eve of Genie’s thirtieth birthday, her grandmother gives her an unexpected gift: a wish at midnight. Genie, forever the family skeptic, laughs it off and, after an evening fending off invasive questions about her nonexistent love life, returns home to her empty house and her golden retriever, Rory. 🎂
Who needs a boyfriend when she has a loyal friend like Rory? As she hugs him and gets ready for bed, she wishes to herself that he were human… at least then their conversations wouldn’t be so one-sided. 🌙
She really should’ve listened to her grandmother.
To her surprise, Rory is now a human with big Golden Retriever Energy—like a goofy, adoring Hemsworth. But he doesn’t like being a human. He doesn’t like wearing clothes or human manners, and he most definitely can’t manage a human job. 👔
Genie needs to turn him back before it’s too late and enlists her oldest friend and boy next door, Miles, to help. Their quest brings them closer than they’ve ever been—and maybe, just maybe, her messed up wish is the key to granting her heart’s desire after all… 💕
Bottom line: Stella Hayward delivers pure romantic comedy gold with this high-concept premise that’s equal parts hilarious and heartwarming. Endorsed by bestselling author Jenny Colgan as “incredibly funny and utterly adorable,” The Good Boy takes the magic realism of body-swap comedies and adds a uniquely charming twist: a golden retriever turned into a hunky but bewildered human. Perfect for fans of Ashley Poston’s quirky rom-coms or Erin Sterling’s witchy romances, this book balances laugh-out-loud moments (watching Rory-the-human struggle with clothes and jobs) with genuine emotion as Genie reconnects with her childhood friend Miles. The dog-to-human transformation is a clever vehicle for exploring what Genie really wants from life and love. Readers praise it as the perfect fall or Halloween read—it has just enough magic and whimsy without being heavy or dark. If you loved The Proposal, You’ve Got Mail, or any rom-com where the heroine realizes what she needs was right there all along, this charming debut will have you grinning from ear to ear. Plus, golden retriever energy in human form? That’s irresistible.
The Secret Code of Success: 7 Hidden Steps to More Wealth and Happiness
Author: John, Noah St.
Regularly $23.99, Today $3.99
Motivational Self-Help
Americans spend more than $11 billion a year on self-help products—everything from books to diet pills to career coaches to seminars. So why—with all this time, money, and energy being spent—are so few people living the life they really want? Why are millions of smart, talented, motivated people still going through life with one foot on the brake? 🚗
Here’s the real Secret: You don’t need any more how-to-succeed information to reach your full potential. The problem isn’t lack of motivation or lack of information. The real problem is that most people focus on the “how-to” aspects of success taught by traditional self-help programs, without coming to terms with what productivity expert Noah St. John calls your “head trash”—the subconscious, emotional roadblocks that prevent people from acting on their real hopes, dreams, and ambitions. 🧠
In this groundbreaking book, based on work with thousands of clients around the world, Noah St. John has created a remarkable, step-by-step approach that helps you achieve long-term happiness, success, and wealth. 💰
In The Secret Code of Success, you will learn how to:
Eliminate the causes of self-sabotage and fear of success ❌
Allow yourself to make more money 💵
Remove stress while dramatically increasing personal productivity 📈
Improve relationships with coworkers, family, and friends 👥
Experience enhanced feelings of happiness, connection, and love 💕
The Secret Code of Success shows that, when it comes to success, the conscious mind is exactly the wrong place to start. It’s only when we first conquer the self-sabotage of our subconscious (which accounts for 90 percent of our behavior) that we can truly begin to enjoy a life filled with success. ✨
What you’ll love about this: Noah St. John is a productivity expert who has worked with thousands of clients worldwide and discovered something most self-help gurus miss: we don’t need more “how-to” information. St. John coined the term “head trash” to describe the subconscious emotional roadblocks that sabotage even the most motivated people. His approach focuses on the 90% of our behavior that’s driven by the subconscious mind—the part traditional self-help ignores. The Secret Code of Success offers a systematic, step-by-step method to identify and eliminate self-sabotage at its source. Unlike books that just pump you up temporarily, St. John’s framework creates lasting change by addressing the root causes of why smart, capable people still struggle. Perfect for readers who’ve tried other self-help programs without lasting results, or for anyone who feels like they’re driving through life with one foot on the brake. If you’ve read books by Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, or Jack Canfield but still feel stuck, St. John’s focus on subconscious reprogramming may be the missing piece. The seven hidden steps offer a concrete path forward, not just more motivation that fades after a few weeks.
Pirate Queens: The Lives of Anne Bonny & Mary Read
Author: Simon, Rebecca Alexandra
Regularly $17.99, Today $1.99
Maritime History & Piracy
Between August and October 1720, two female pirates named Anne Bonny and Mary Read terrorized the Caribbean in and around Jamaica. 🏴☠️ Despite their short career, they became two of the most notorious pirates during the height of the eighteenth-century Golden Age of Piracy.
In a world dominated by men, they became infamous for their bravery, cruelty, and unwavering determination to escape the social constraints placed on women during that time. ⚔️ But despite their notoriety, mystery shrouds their lives before they became pirates. Their biographies were recorded in Captain Charles Johnson’s 1724 book, A General History of the Pyrates, depicting the two as illegitimate women raised by men who, against insurmountable odds, crossed paths in Nassau and became pirates together. But how much is fact versus fiction? 🤔
This first full-length biography about Anne Bonny and Mary Read explores their intriguing backgrounds while examining the social context of women in their lifetime and their legacy in popular culture, which exists to the present day. Using A General History of the Pyrates, early modern legal documents relating to women, their recorded public trial in The Tryal of Jack Rackham and Other Pyrates, newspapers, and new research, this book unravels the mysteries and legends surrounding their lives. 📜
Here’s why this matters: Rebecca Alexandra Simon has written the first full-length biography dedicated solely to history’s most famous female pirates, and she brings serious historical rigor to the task. Using primary sources including trial transcripts, legal documents, newspapers, and early modern records about women, Simon separates fact from legend while examining why Anne Bonny and Mary Read’s story has endured for 300 years. Unlike pirate tales that romanticize or sensationalize, this book provides historical context about women’s lives in the 18th century, showing just how remarkable it was for two women to not only become pirates but to be remembered as fierce fighters in their own right. The book traces their legacy through popular culture, from early ballads to modern films and novels. Perfect for readers fascinated by maritime history, women’s history, or the Golden Age of Piracy. If you enjoyed Empire of Blue Water by Stephan Talty or The Republic of Pirates by Colin Woodard, Simon’s meticulous research and engaging narrative will satisfy your craving for well-researched pirate history that doesn’t sacrifice accuracy for entertainment.

No strings. 🚫
No commitments. 🚫
Absolutely no catching feelings. 🚫
Three rules for dating—and life—that have served me well. Until now.
Because there’s a rat at Jamestech, and my brother is convinced he knows the perfect person to sniff them out. 🐀 Some guy they call the hotshot who he knew back in Chicago. Sounds good, right? And I’m fully onboard with protecting my family’s company.
That is until I walk into work one morning and I’m confronted with King Worthington. Of course it’s him—who better to catch a rat than a snake! 🐍
I haven’t seen him for eighteen years, yet he somehow still looks exactly the same—the cruel piece of garbage that eviscerated my heart. 💔 But his killer smile and charm won’t work on me this time. He might hide who he is, but I know exactly who I am. I am Mason James, and he doesn’t get to get anywhere near close to me.
So why do I want to let him in? Why do I want to believe his apologies and lean into whatever this intense attraction is between us? 🔥
King and I both have our secrets, and even if we can let go of our past hurts, maybe they’re the kind of secrets there’s no coming back from.

If you devoured books by Lucy Score, Lauren Asher, or Elsie Silver’s billionaire romances, Kincaid’s mix of family loyalty, corporate drama, and explosive chemistry will keep you up all night. The “secrets there’s no coming back from” promise guarantees high stakes and emotional payoff. For fans of MM billionaire romance with genuine angst and heat.

“Hi, I’m Allora. I’m 32, and I’ve never been kissed, never been asked out, and never been on a date.” 💔

As friends and younger siblings coupled up, she felt more and more left behind. How had she, a self-proclaimed late bloomer, missed this crucial life lesson? 🤔
What made her so unlovable?
Tired of waiting for romance to magically appear, Allora took a leap of faith, broadcasting her confession to a then non-existent audience on TikTok. 📱 That daring act of accountability and a mission to shed shame went viral, propelled her story across the world and onto The Drew Barrymore Show, introduced her to her first boyfriend, and transformed her into a loud advocate for ditching late bloomer stigmas. ✨

More than a love story, it’s a guide to letting go of fear, curbing insecurities, and, most importantly, discovering how to “complete” yourself at any age. 💕
“As a fellow late bloomer, I saw myself on every page. Allora names the questions so many of us carry in silence—How do I kiss someone for the first time at 30? What if I’ve never had sex? Am I too far behind to catch up?—and answers them with honesty, humor, and deep care. This isn’t just her story; it’s a practical, compassionate guide to doing all the ‘firsts’ on your own timeline, with courage and self-trust.” (Lily Womble, author of Thank You, More Please)
Here’s the deal: Allora Dannon went viral on TikTok for bravely admitting what millions feel but rarely say: “I’m 32 and I’ve never been kissed.” That confession launched her onto The Drew Barrymore Show, introduced her to her first boyfriend, and made her an advocate for late bloomers everywhere who feel hopelessly behind in life and love. Who Is She? is both memoir and survival guide, answering the questions that keep late bloomers up at night: How do you have your first kiss at 30? What if you’ve never had sex? Are you too far behind to catch up? Dannon’s voice is honest, humorous, and deeply compassionate as she chronicles shattering comfort zones and embracing first experiences that came decades “late” by society’s standards.
