Out of Time by M. Jacqueline Murray

Out of Time by M. Jacqueline Murray

Life has a time limit. Love doesn’t.
Maddie Cole has spent seven decades living on her own terms. A trailblazing engineer who chose career over convention, she built a life she’s proud of, even if it meant leaving romance behind. At 78, she figures that chapter is closed.

Then a family weekend in Bar Harbor, Maine takes an unexpected turn. Her daughter gets called away on business, and Maddie finds herself alone at the Hope Point Lighthouse B&B with its owner, Nate Jacobs, an 83-year-old widower and former corporate lawyer who has lived his entire life by the book. Everything about him should put them at odds. Instead, long breakfasts, coastal walks, and unhurried conversation start to awaken something she had convinced herself she no longer needed.

And then comes the discovery that stops them both cold: they have been crossing paths for decades, in the same cities, the same circles, the same rooms, without ever truly meeting. Until now. With limited time ahead and something neither of them quite has words for between them, the question becomes whether this is the best possible timing or the worst.

Out of Time is the kind of love story that tends to catch readers off guard. It is quiet and funny and deeply human, with two protagonists who feel unmistakably real. Kirkus Reviews called it “an uplifting reminder that one may find love at any age,” and the book went on to win four International Firebird Book Awards, including Best Unconventional Love Story and Most Heartwarming. It was also a Finalist for the American Writing Awards in Women’s Fiction.
If you have ever wondered whether love has an expiration date, this book is a pretty convincing argument that it does not.

CATERINA by Claire Kirby

CATERINA by Claire Kirby

My father gave my bodyguard one order: Keep me alive.
Simple.
Then Adrian Donato moved into my life.

My office. My home.
My shadow. My prison.

He is ex-military.
Cold.
Controlled.
Dangerous in a way that doesn’t need threats.

And he watches me like protection is only half the reason he never looks away.

I’m Caterina Conti.
Daughter of a mafia don.

A woman raised to understand power, danger, and the cost of both.

I should hate having Adrian at my side.
I should resent every order.
Every locked door.
Every possessive glance when another man gets too close.

But threats against my family are turning deadly.
And the colder Adrian becomes, the more I realize he may be the only thing standing between me and the people coming for us.

He says he would kill to keep me safe.

The terrifying part?
I believe him.

The worst part?
I want him anyway.

Now betrayal is everywhere.
Enemies are closing in.

And the man sworn to protect me has become the one thing I can’t resist.

There’s just one complication.

I’m carrying my bodyguard’s baby.

For Liberty and Love by Shanna Hatfield

About Featured Book: For Liberty and Love by Shanna Hatfield

She never intended to become a spy … or fall for one.
Philadelphia, 1776

As whispers of revolution swell into a roar for freedom, Lucy Carlson is no longer content to simply watch from behind the counter of her father’s jewelry shop. When a mysterious woman—none other than Martha Washington—leaves behind a locket, Lucy discovers the piece is more than a pretty keepsake. The necklace is a secret vessel for the revolution that carries the promise of love.

Drawn into a dangerous spy ring, Lucy begins crafting coded messages concealed within the locket’s clever design, living a secret double life and risking everything she holds dear in a time of sacrifice and war.

Continental soldier Branch Barton is a man defined by duty. Tasked with rooting out traitors, he moves through the shadowed world of deception and divided loyalties. He’s trained to trust no one, yet he finds himself drawn into a slow-burning connection with the jeweler’s spirited daughter.

But when Lucy begins to suspect Branch may be a Redcoat in disguise, their fragile bond is tested by mistaken identity, growing mistrust, and the threat of betrayal.

In a war where even allies can become enemies, Lucy and Branch must navigate a world of hidden truths and guarded hearts. With the fate of the colonies—and their hearts—hanging in the balance

Death of a Star by Sandy Semerad

Death of a Star by Sandy Semerad

Death of a Star was a finalist in Killer Nashville’s Claymore Awards.

Atlanta newspaper publisher Carrie Sue Justice-Handley doesn’t expect to find death inside her ancestral home after renting it to a Hollywood director. She anticipates a mess inside, but not the star of Annie’s Ghost hanging from attic rafters. The star’s death is eerily like the historic suicide of the resident ghost. Detective Sean O’Connor identifies the star’s death as murder. This propelled Carrie Sue into a dangerous investigation and an unexpected romance. On the advice of a friend, she seeks answers from a trusted psychic. The psychic says greed was the catalyst for murder and senses another body is buried behind the old house. The prediction also carries a warning.

Childhood friend Freemont Jackson reminds Carrie Sue; she is a survivor after a lifetime of trauma, but Carrie Sue is doubtful when her life is repeatedly threatened. Thankfully, a stray German Shepard comes to the rescue. He uncovers a vital clue and helps to catch a cunningly evil murderer.

Serial Bangers! by Sheridan Anne

Serial Bangers! by Sheridan Anne

I’m many things—sarcastic, ruthless, and offensively good at my job.
What I’m not is tolerant of my brand-new neighbor—Raiden Kane.

He’s infuriating, smug, and far too attractive for someone who treats our shared parking like a declaration of war. Sure, I could handle all of that, but what I can’t handle is his Energizer Bunny stamina and apparent addiction to beautiful women—an addiction that plays out for hours every night through the insultingly thin wall between our bedrooms.

Raiden Kane knows exactly what he’s doing to me, and I’d dare say it’s the best game he’s ever played. My tolerance meter is wearing thin. Especially when he looks at me with those lazy bedroom eyes that suggest he already knows exactly how I taste.

Work is supposed to keep me sane. It’s my escape. Until it isn’t. Our worlds collide, and the man I’d happily strangle on principle starts turning up where he doesn’t belong.

Coincidence? Please.

There’s something off about Raiden Kane. He’s hiding secrets of his own, and I fully intend to pry them from his cocky, sinful soul . . . one delicious mistake at a time.

Living next door to him was a mistake.

Falling for him would be worse.

But underestimating him?

That might be the one thing that gets me killed.

Creatine: Myths & Facts by Sven Lederer

Creatine: Myths & Facts by Sven Lederer

Does creatine wreck your kidneys? Cause hair loss? Do you need a loading phase, a cycling phase, and a chemistry degree to use it correctly? After 20+ years in the supplement industry, I’ve heard every one of these — usually stated with total confidence, usually wrong.
Creatine: Myths & Facts takes 55 of the most common creatine claims and runs each one past the actual research. No hype. No fear-mongering. No bro at the gym who “read something once.”
Here’s the irony: creatine is one of the most studied supplements on the planet, with one of the strongest safety records in all of nutrition science — and it’s still buried under marketing noise and recycled locker-room folklore. This book digs it back out.
Each myth gets the same treatment: what people believe, what the evidence actually says, and what it means for you — whether you’re a beginner, a competitive athlete, a woman, over 50, or just tired of guessing.
55 myths. Real studies. Plain language. Decide for yourself.
Part of the PowerFacts24 Creatine Series — clear, evidence-based guides including dedicated volumes for women, for beginners, and the latest research update.
FREE on Amazon from [STARTDATUM] to [ENDDATUM].
