SIX TOTES! Or is it eight? UGH… It’s possible there are more totes filled with Halloween decorations, but I don’t see them right now. My garage has exploded with decorations from the attic. I only use about four totes worth of stuff though. Am I ever going to use the other decorations in the other totes I haven’t touched in years? Nope! So I never plan to use them? Correct!. Ever? NOPE! So why are you keeping them? Duunno. That’s the actual conversation I have in my head whenever I bring down the decorations for any holiday. I don’t even understand myself. That’s probably bad, right? I gotta purge the items I don’t use. I just need to be brutal and get rid of them. Maybe give them away now for free to someone who can use them this year. It’s hard to part with things that I like, but never use. TO THE CURB WITH YOU! BYE BYE BATS!

Her Cowboy Billionaire Birthday Wish: A Hammond Brothers Novel (Christmas at Whiskey Mountain Lodge in Coral Canyon™ Book 1)
by Liz Isaacson
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Westerns
FREE for a limited time
All the maid at Whiskey Mountain Lodge wants for her birthday is a handsome cowboy billionaire. And Colton can make that wish come true — if only he hadn’t escaped to Coral Canyon after being left at the altar…
Annie Pruitt has worked for the Whittaker brothers for years, and now with the lodge a full-fledged mountain resort, she’s the full-time maid up the canyon. She’s watched all these people come through Whiskey Mountain Lodge who’ve found love.
And she wants to be next.
When the whole family gathers for Annie’s birthday party, they tell her to make a wish. Easy, peasy. She wishes for a cowboy billionaire of her own, and not five minutes later, in walks tall, broad, beautiful Colton Hammond.
Colton needs a place to stay after his fiancée leaves him standing at the altar with all of his friends and family watching. He’s put Colorado in his rear-view mirror and he’s not going back. He’s also not interested in women or dating. He just needs somewhere to stay for a few nights, and he’s heard great things about Whiskey Mountain Lodge–but not, apparently, that it’s closed for a private event every year during the holidays.
But the Whittakers are nothing if not kind and accommodating, and they manage to find a bed for Colton. Sparks fly between him and Annie when she starts asking him questions, and with so many meddlers at the lodge, he and Annie really don’t stand a chance of just ignoring each other.
Will Annie’s birthday wish come true? Or will Colton’s scarred heart keep them from achieving happily-ever-after?

Kaleidoscope
by Graham Wilson
Genre: History | Parenting & Relationships
FREE for a limited time
A place of endless bright colours which fuse in my mind into a kaleidoscope.
A remembered story of my family’s life in a distant world, on aboriginal land in Australia’s Northern Territory, a place like remote Canada or Alaska, where few others go. It is the landscape of Crocodile Dundee, myriad hues of billabongs, open grass plains, sunlit hills and purple storms, peopled by its many coloured children.
In a changing world a missionary family and aboriginal community became part of modern Australia over 50 years.
What is it about the Northern Territory that fascinates? If I mention its name in conversation and people stop to listen.
Why, for nearly 200 years, has it drawn people to come, stay longer than they imagined and often, never leave?
This our family’s story, growing amongst the people, animals and places and colours of this this strange land, within an aboriginal community going through huge changes; citizenship, alcohol, uranium mining, land rights, outstation development, and community self-management.
The role of my father in road transport including building a crossing of the East Alligator River, developing outstations for aboriginal communities, learning to fly on missionary wages and establishing an aviation service along with assisting the aboriginal peoples of this land to gain royalties from mining is a story that deserves to be told as a major part of NT history. Along with his tireless work the contribution of many others to the making of the Northern Territory is the fabric of this story.
It also tells of my mother and fathers’ lives and Christian beliefs which motivated their contribution to this change.
It is a story of my memories and love for this remote and beautiful place, in which I lived as a child then worked as an adult and of many NT characters who gave me the memories. It is also the story of me working as an adult across many parts of the NT and about the hardy, outlandish characters that inhabit this place.
It also tells of my own experience of surviving attack by a large crocodile in a remote swamp
It provides a foundation for my novels in the Crocodile Spirit Dreaming Series. The places in these books are the places in which I lived and worked and many of the stories came little changed from people I knew.

Cesspool (Vigilante Justice Thrillers)
by Phil M. Williams
Genre: Drama & Plays | Thrillers | Action & Adventure
FREE for a limited time
Would you become a criminal to do the right thing?
Disgraced teacher, James Fisher, moved to a backwoods town, content to live his life in solitude. He was awakened from his apathy by a small girl with a big problem. James suspected Brittany was being abused and exploited by his neighbor. He called the police but soon realized his mistake, as the neighbor was related to the chief of police.
Most would’ve looked the other way. Getting involved placed James squarely in the crosshairs of the local police. James lacked the brawn or the connections to save himself, much less Brittany. The police held all the power, and they knew it. But that was also their weakness. They underestimated what the mild-mannered teacher and the young runaway would do for justice.
Buy Cesspool today if you enjoy vigilante justice page-turners with a side of underdog.
Adult language and content.
