Dori protects her little sister, Kati, from demons of every sort: boys whose fists leave bruises, mean girls whose bullying words break the spirit, and men whose touch scars the soul for a lifetime.

As a child, a church youth group was Dori's only safe haven. It was the only escape she and her younger sister Kati had from the multiple horrors of home life. With the church and her hard-working Daddy's ingrained teaching of scripture as her only guide, Dori has to mature and raise her little sister. When she reaches the confusing age of womanhood, she knows that God loves her, but her past troubles her beyond repair.
Why did all those men single her out and leave her broken?
What man would want a girlfriend or wife who's been molested by seven different men?
What decent man could possibly look past that?
These demons torment her day in, day out, making it impossible to consider the love of a good, Godly young man. As she blossoms into a young woman and discovers the depth of her character, she realizes that no matter how blemished she may feel, God has a preordained plan for her life. That plan includes an unexpected love affair that rewrites the meaning of love and leaves her astonished with God's goodness with every glorious, passing day.

A story of atrocious tragedy, the love of two sisters, a surprising, whirlwind romance, and the amazing, saving Grace of Jesus Christ.

A Valentine To Cherish by Josie Riviera

Valentine’s Day is all about love. And God has a special plan for a small-town woman and a road-weary singer.

When Scarlett Evans meets Grammy-nominated Christian singer/songwriter Joseph Slater, their attraction dances like the intricate melodies he plays on his guitar. The way he looks at her—like she’s perfect, just as she is—is a balm to her recently broken heart.

But who is she kidding? Stars like Joseph pick slim, demure, beautiful blondes, not loud, boisterous redheads with I’m-on-my-thousandth-diet curves. Besides, right after a local Valentine’s Day benefit concert, he’ll do what men have done to her all her life—hit the road.

Scarlett-with-two-t’s is the answer to Joseph’s prayer. This exquisite, vivacious woman has reconnected him with his muse. He’s writing new songs for the first time in years, with lyrics that make him ache for something his relentless touring schedule never allowed. A home. Family. Love.

But as just as Scarlett’s hesitation starts to melt, she freezes and pulls away. Now he’s praying for the right lyrics to bring her back—and show her that with God’s guidance, they can rewrite their future as duet.

All his life, he’s followed a song. Is God showing him it’s time to put down roots?

From USA Today bestselling author Josie Riviera comes a contemporary Christian Romance series set in the small town of Cherish, South Carolina. These sweet and wholesome stories, where God is at the center, brim with love and laughter.

A Valentine To Cherish is the third book in the Cherish series, where music, laughter, and a Little Sister turns Valentine’s Day around.

A Love Song To Cherish by Josie Riviera

It’s easy to recognize another’s pain. The tough part is facing your own.

When Dorothy Thompson returns to Cherish, SC, to play piano for her brother’s wedding, memories and fear nearly paralyzes her fingers. If anyone she knew back in high school discovers her secret, the whispers will start. Fake. Fraud. Failure.

It’s not as if she can blame God for her troubles. No, she did that all by herself. But, remembering His lessons, she’s fighting to get back on track. All she can do is pray the wedding vocalist-her brother’s friend Ryan, a rising opera star-won’t notice the way her hands shake.

When Ryan Edwards sets foot inside a church for the first time in years, he’s no longer the pitiable kid from the poor side of town, but someone who’s made it on his own. Without God’s help-not that He ever cared about misfits like Ryan, anyway.

When he lays eyes on Dorothy-all grown up, more beautiful than ever, and clearly hiding something-he almost forgets why he left Cherish. Almost. But while his heart yearns to call the tune, he can’t forget his hard-earned career comes first…and his old friend’s little sister is off limits.

Note: Contains references to opiate addiction and recovery.

When the storm destroys everything, remember God has your name on something else.

A Christmas To Cherish by Josie Riviera

There’s nothing a Christmas kiss won’t cure. Except perhaps a shattered heart….

When Emmanuelle Sumter steps off the train in Cherish, South Carolina – a town simply glowing with the promise of Christmas – she finds herself praying God will help her find the broken pieces of her life. Shattered, like her beloved harp, her dreams, and her trust in men.

Her friend Dorothy told her Cherish is a safe haven. But she never expected Dorothy’s brother, Deputy Nicholas Thompson, would relight the one thing she thought she’d lost forever: a spark of hope.

Not long ago, while Nicholas’ sister was in rehab, Emmanuelle’s voice and smile on his Skype screen held him together. After that, she seemed to disappear, an absence he felt keenly when his ex-fiancée left his faith in God dented but not broken.

Now she’s in Cherish, even more stunning in person. Yet she’s holding tight to a private pain she refuses to reveal. Nicholas resolves to be patient, vowing he’ll never let anyone hurt her again. Even when her past rears its ugly head to destroy what’s left of her heart.

Perfect and Forgiven by Zach Maldonado

About Perfect and Forgiven by Zach Maldonado

For a limited time, only $2.99!

What do you do when you feel unworthy? How do you find freedom from shame, guilt, and sin?

We’ve boiled down the message of Christianity to being imperfect people who have been forgiven. But what if the message isn’t just about what Christ has done for us–forgiving our sins so we can go to heaven one day–but also about what He has done to us?

Life is filled with shame, guilt, sin, and hurt. These things have convinced us that we’re flawed, we’re not enough, and that something is uniquely wrong with who we are. And quite honestly, we look to Christianity for help and the message we often hear leaves us disappointed, doubtful, and disillusioned.

Zach Maldonado has experienced this firsthand. But he’s discovered that who we truly are is not found in what we’ve done or what we’ve gone through. In Perfect and Forgiven, Zach takes us into his own journey of identity, and with humor, vulnerability, and a unique story-driven format, reveals how to live free from shame, guilt, and sin.

Through understanding who you are in Christ, you can begin to live free from the shame that condemns you, the guilt that riddles you, and the sin that entangles you.

Seeking Patience by Josie Riviera

Do people prove their worth by strength, or by character?

Half-Romany, half-English lord, he lives a perilous Gypsy life…until a sweet English rose saves his life, and perhaps his soul. Widowed by a cruel husband, she’s given up all hope of love. Brought together in peril, they dare to reach for a brighter future together.

Luca Boldor, Romany leader, lives a nomad’s life in Regency England with his Gypsy caravan. Believing his noble father abandoned him at birth, he refuses to acknowledge his English blood, or live a settled life. But when a vicious attack by a rival leaves him bleeding on an English lady’s doorstep, he has no choice but to accept her help. Her gentle faith stirs his heart in a way he has long denied.

Lady Patience Blakwell, widowed countess, lives in near poverty. Her husband’s heir uses threats to keep her from demanding her rightful inheritance. With a few faithful servants, she exists quietly in the country, only her faith keeping her strong…until the day a bold, handsome Gypsy collapses in her hall. He’s unlike any man she’s ever known, and she’ll confront any subterfuge to keep him safe.

But when a secret from Lady Patience’s past emerges, Luca must face his own past, or lose her and all hope of love. Will this strong man humble himself to open his heart for his lady?

Seeking Charity by Josie Riviera

Will the truth set her free…or keep her forever a prisoner of the past?

When Charity ran away with the Romany Gypsies, she left everything behind: her name, a way of life constrained by English rules, the punishments her cruel father meted out in the name of God, and the young man who made it all bearable. Certain things she can’t hide, even in wild, remote Wale: a secret longing for the ease of English life, the wisps of faith that still linger, and her reaction to a handsome face she thought she’d never see again.

Daniel Hayward would recognize that voice anywhere and that unruly, copper-colored hair, as well as those piercing blue eyes. But what is Charity Weston doing wearing Gypsy garb in Wales…when she died years ago?

For a moment, the grief that never quite left him is transformed into joy. But the walls between them now are built from bricks of culture clashes, bitter memories, and fear. To find his way, Daniel will have to trust as never before that God will guide their hearts home at last.

Does he love the girl she was…or the woman she has become?

This poignant Regency Inspirational romance will fill your heart with love and hope.

The Christian Musician – Learn What Your Real Gift Is and How To Succeed, with and Beyond Your Music by Quamon Fowler

About The Christian Musician – Learn What Your Real Gift Is and How To Succeed, with and Beyond Your Music by Quamon Fowler

Many aspiring musicians most often don’t get the balanced mentorship that they need to be functional away from their music. Most grow up desiring to travel the world and play on the big stage but, they end up neglecting their natural God-given role as just being a good man or woman, husband or wife, and father or mother. Musicians are often told that they have a “musical gift”, and end up going through life believing all they are supposed to do in life is play their instrument for a living.

The irony behind this thinking is, when musicians receive this as their only purpose, they limit their full potential as
a human being and struggle to develop other skills outside of music. This can make things really challenging for them as they grow older and start to desire more stability in their life away from playing.

In this book you will learn ways for the musician to obtain stability, learn the importance for musicians to have good mentors in other areas outside of music, and also learn what the musician’s true gift is in order to help them in their lives as a whole.

This book is for musicians and others who believe the myth that music is a gift. This book is also for those musicians who may be confused of what their purpose really is.

As an international, award-winning, Jazz saxophonist, and now professor of 4 years in the School of Church Music at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, I’ve experienced the challenges of trying to support a family as an independent musician. I’ve experienced playing gigs just for the money because I didn’t have a steady job. In this book you will get real stories of what I went through as a Christian musician and what I did in order to overcome the challenges so I could support a family and still be able to play gigs that I enjoyed.

Musicians have to realize that their gift is the unique way they think, which can serve them more beneficially when they embrace their God-given role as leaders away from their instruments!

The insights in this book will open your perspective and inspire you to be a better individual. Additionally, you’ll be inspired to be a better musician that values the mind as the asset, not just one’s performing ability!

What you will take away from this book is the freedom to be who God created you to be and not have to suffer
from typical challenges that face musicians. This suffering musician believes in a persona of who they are, rather than believing the reality of who they are.

Don’t let more years go by confused about your identity! I promise, in this book you will learn how to prioritize what’s really important as an aspiring musician from a practical standpoint. The insights in this book are from the perspective of an accomplished musician who has traveled the world, played on the big stages, and has released multiple CD projects. You will be intrigued and inspired to finish this book in a few days!

This book will personally help you as a mentor would by providing guidance to avoid the typical pitfalls that come within the musician lifestyle. Don’t be that musician that gets old and bitter with notoriety, but has no spouse, or divorced, and one that doesn’t have lucrative income to support a family.

For the musician who reads this book, it will help you to unlock your full potential and go beyond your music!

Sadly, over time, bell makers were replaced with noisemakers. They peddled work with little purpose and great distractions to fill what they claimed to be the emptiness inside. No one before then thought they were empty. Instead, they knew that inside, deep inside us all, lay the vast endlessness of possibility. But soon, people were so filled with noise, they could no longer hear themselves. They could no longer hear the voice within. The people became so filled with noise and distraction that they had no room left inside for even one more clear, radiant note from a bell. This began the Great Age of Sound. But, before this Great Age of Sound, there were bell makers. And they were magic. This is the story of one such man.

Giants At Play: Finding Wisdom, Courage, And Acceptance To Encounter Your Destiny by Curtis Tyrone Jones

About Giants At Play: Finding Wisdom, Courage, And Acceptance To Encounter Your Destiny by Curtis Tyrone Jones

A wise woman named Bertice Berry once said, “When you walk with purpose you collide with destiny.” With this in mind, Giants At Play is the opposite of a safety manual, it is rather a dangerous guide to ensure such collisions not only take place but frequent the life of the reader. Part I, “Giants At Play,” is about learning to recognize and courageously encounter the many and ever-accessible giants that passionately live and play among us. In this sense, “giants” can be anything that awakens you to your greatness, destiny, or the unlimited potential that is your life. Ideas, art, mentors, epic novels, movies, philosophies, relationships, spiritual teachers, inventions, meditations, stories, nature, sex, music, gods, and goddesses all flood this world with their magical movements in order to somehow catch our eye and catapult our hearts onto a journey into the sky. In this way, like fireworks our lives bring magnificence, brilliance, and awe to all those within sight. Part II, “A Cure For The Bitter Bones,” is meant to be an ecstasy-inducing elixir for any who’ve grown old, tired, or rigid, having skinned their chin or elbows while participating in the hard game of life. Considering life’s massive let downs and the extreme patience required for the achievement of our goals, self-mastery, and the fulfillment of our destiny, it is a small wonder that we would need such medicinal strong drink for the journey we face. My hope is that together, these two concepts of courageously learning to play among “Giants” and frequently ingesting “A Cure For The Bitter Bones” would help you to find wisdom, courage, and acceptance to encounter your destiny. Live your dream. Order this ebook and “collide with” your dangerous destiny now!

WARRIOR: A CALL TO EVERY MAN EVERYWHERE by Sam Laing

About WARRIOR: A CALL TO EVERY MAN EVERYWHERE by Sam Laing

Men, we are called to be warriors.
Deep in our souls, God has placed the heart of a warrior. It is the part of us that longs for battle, for conquest, for victory. We sense it: I have a battle to fight. A struggle to face. A war to win.

The men of the Bible were all engaged in battle. They fought different battles–in different situations, times, and ways, with their own distinct personalities–but fight they did. And Jesus? He was the greatest warrior of them all.

And now, brothers, it is our turn. Today God is calling every one of us to be his warriors in that same conflict. Just as the heroes of the faith went to war for their God, so must we.

This book, based upon the life of David, is a call to every man to rise up and be a warrior for God. Also available is a companion volume, The Warrior Workbook, a tool that will help you bring the principles into your daily life by 1) showing you how to become a part of and build a Warrior Group, and 2) providing additional valuable study materials. The Warrior Group is vital in that it will give you the friendships and encouragement you need to win the great battles ahead.

Are you ready to be inspired? Are you ready to become a mighty warrior for God? Warrior is the book for you!

Hidden Thrones by Russ Scalzo

About Hidden Thrones by Russ Scalzo

A new award winning series from author Russ Scalzo. A supernatural thriller. A titanic clash between good and evil.

Jack Bennett has an unusual gift. His coveted ability means he is the FBI’s newest hire, serving as a consultant for their new Paranormal Division.
The government is convinced we are not alone in this world. With invisible forces all around, agencies are seeking how to harness that power for their own uses. The mystery swirling around the unseen and unknown has caused much speculation. Some suppose lost souls are wandering the earth, others believe deceased loved ones never truly moved on, and still there are those who are convinced that aliens have infiltrated our world.

Jack Bennett knows better. He knows who and what these powers are. The ancient scriptures talk about a great evil that was conceived in the depths of eternity. There, a great war occurred in a place called Heaven. Lucifer, the ancient serpent, the evil dragon of folklore, was cast out and bound to the earth and confined to its surrounding atmosphere.

Could it be that the evil we see is inspired by a dark kingdom, a demonic spiritual force at war with the human race? Could these princes and rulers of darkness be influencing our world today? Jack Bennett knows this is the truth. He knows because he encounters them every day.

Follow Jack Bennett in the first of a five part series as he battles the realm of Hidden Thrones.

“This book was great! Action and intrigue right from the beginning and with a bit of romance thrown in.”
