Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Brian Tally is one of sacriﬁce, failure of our system, gross neglect, selﬂessness, dishonesty, manipulation, and ultimately perseverance against all the odds. As you read the story about my brother's journey, I hope you can ﬁnd inspiration that no matter how bad your situation is there is always hope, people who love you, and a chapter yet to be written. Brian and I started this journey when we were told by the head of the Veterans Affairs Legal Department that his case wasn't the ﬁrst, won't be the last, and if you want to change it go ahead and contact your political representative. The arrogance, deﬂection, lack of sympathy, or desire to ﬁx the problem spring boarded Brian and me into this eye-opening journey. I charged Brian with changing the law. I said, "We will change the law and call it the Tally Bill." Brian was completely set up by the VA to fail; there's no way he should have been able to do what he accomplished. My mission was to change the subject for him and keep him busy and focused on something that he could control. His new mission was to right the wrong, change the narrative, and forever change the way our veterans are provided for in our country. My mission was to keep him occupied; never did I imagine that he'd see it all the way through and what it would morph into. I couldn't be prouder of my brother, who he is, who he has become, and the relationship he's created with God. Enjoy the journey you're about to go upon, and watch how a gung-ho Marine veteran went from running a successful landscaping company to walking the halls of Congress. Brian never served in overseas combat; Brian's combat came in the tune of walking the halls of Congress, countless phone calls and emails, and years of pain that continues today, all while ﬁghting to make sure this never happens again. His combat mission was fought on US soil against the tyranny of our government systems, and he succeeded. Sometimes you choose a calling in life, and sometimes a calling chooses you. I love you, brother, and I'm so proud of you and everything you have accomplished! Respectfully, Scott Tally / USAF Combat Veteran

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light comes a “powerful” (The Washington Post) novel about the choices that alter the course of our lives. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY MARIE CLAIRE Everything changes in a single moment for Dawn Edelstein. She’s on a plane when the flight attendant makes an announcement: Prepare for a crash landing. She braces herself as thoughts flash through her mind. The shocking thing is, the thoughts are not of her husband but of a man she last saw fifteen years ago: Wyatt Armstrong. Dawn, miraculously, survives the crash, but so do all the doubts that have suddenly been raised. She has led a good life. Back in Boston, there is her husband, Brian, their beloved daughter, and her work as a death doula, in which she helps ease the transition between life and death for her clients. But somewhere in Egypt is Wyatt Armstrong, who works as an archaeologist unearthing ancient burial sites, a career Dawn once studied for but was forced to abandon when life suddenly intervened. And now, when it seems that fate is offering her second chances, she is not as sure of the choice she once made. After the crash landing, the airline ensures that the survivors are seen by a doctor, then offers transportation to wherever they want to go. The obvious destination is to fly home, but she could take another path: return to the archaeological site she left years before, reconnect with Wyatt and their unresolved history, and maybe even complete her research on The Book of Two Ways—the first known map of the afterlife. As the story unfolds, Dawn’s two possible futures unspool side by side, as do the secrets and doubts long buried with them. Dawn must confront the questions she’s never truly asked: What does a life well lived look like? When we leave this earth, what do we leave behind? Do we make choices . . . or do our choices make us? And who would you be if you hadn’t turned out to be the person you are right now?

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Book excerpt: When Mary Davies travels to Jane Austen’s Bath for a historical getaway, she expects a luxurious escape from reality. Instead she finds her friendship at a crossroads, her love life upended, and her heart on a journey she never expected. Mary Davies finds safety in her ordered and productive life. Working as an engineer, she genuinely enjoys her job and her colleagues—particularly a certain adorable and intelligent consultant. But something is missing. When Mary’s estranged childhood friend, Isabel Dwyer, offers her a two-week stay in a gorgeous manor house in England, she reluctantly agrees in hopes that the holiday will shake up her quiet life in just the right ways. But Mary gets more than she bargained for when Isabel loses her memory and fully believes she lives in Jane Austen’s Bath. While Isabel rests and delights in the leisure of a Regency lady, attended by other costume-clad guests, Mary uncovers startling truths about their shared past, who Isabel was, who she seems to be, and the man who now stands between them. Outings are undertaken, misunderstandings arise, and dancing ensues as this company of clever, well-informed people, who have a great deal of conversation, work out their lives and hearts. “Admirers of Jane Austen, especially, will delight in the delicious descriptions and elegant prose as the protagonist is transported to the English countryside, taking readers along for the ride. Both cleverly written and nicely layered, Reay’s latest proves to be a charming escape!” —Denise Hunter, bestselling author of Lake Season on The Austen Escape “At once sophisticated and smart . . . Clever and classy . . . Whether for the first-time Pride and Prejudice reader or the devotee with an ardent affection for all things Austen . . . The Austen Escape is an equally satisfying retreat into the wilds of Jane’s beloved Regency world. In scenes brilliantly woven with Austen’s classic characterization, Reay goes beyond courtship and manners to explore modern-day scenarios, grappling with themes of brokenness and loss, the weight of decisions and consequences, and the anchor of faith through difficult circumstances. As amiable as an Austen novelist could be—but with a pen just as witty—Katherine Reay proves she’s ready to become Jane to a whole new generation of women.” —Kristy Cambron, bestselling author of The Painted Castle “Wildly imaginative and deeply moving, The Austen Escape is Katherine Reay at her very best.” —Billy Coffey, author of Steal Away Home “The Austen Escape has the remarkable ability to be both lighthearted and gripping. The dramatic elements are first rate, the characters even finer. Wonderful writing. Highly recommended.” —Davis Bunn, bestselling author Sweet and thoughtful contemporary read Stand-alone novel Book length: 80,000 words Includes a discussion questions and an excerpt from Dear Mr. Knightley

Book excerpt: You were born to make an impact in this world and you know it. You feel it deep down in your bones. Apathy is your nemesis and your hunger to change the world keeps you up at night. But no matter how deep this hunger growls, we can only make a meaningful impact if we are rooted in Jesus. And here’s the thing: God is not interested in developing your vision first. He is interested in developing you. In Rooted, Banning Liebscher takes us to the life of David to show how God expands our root system in the hidden places before leading us to where we all desire to go, the visible world. It was in a field of prayerful devotion, a season of serving, and a cave of community that God prepared David for his crown, the same way God prepares us. Take a look at your own life. Are you embracing God’s process, the sometimes painstaking and maddening process? When we can release ourselves to God we will find that we can thrive while He develops us, rather than succumb to discouragement. Whatever your age or season of life, it takes immense courage to slow down enough to let God grow a root system in your life so that you can bear fruit that remains. You are where you are because God has planted you there. Discover what it looks like to embrace His process so you can do what He has called you to, change the world.

Our civilization and our planet are in desperate need of healing, and only the divine collective can save them. In a sudden moment of illumination, Inocencia Malunes understood her purpose and mission in life, and she now senses an urgency to share her truth with others. In The Growing Tree of Life inside Us, Ms. Malunes shares a message from the Divine I AM that resides in each of us. As people, we are one, all part of a universal consciousness, or what some call “God.” We have the power individually and collectively to change our lives and our world by controlling and focusing our thoughts and desires, although most people are still unaware of this wonderful reality. Thought-provoking and enlightening, I Am the Tree of Life presents a unique and refreshing perspective on human potential. From training our thoughts to meeting the needs of the vulnerable, we will change our own lives, and then we will change the world.

In response to this trend, Glenn Shepard has written How to Manage Problem Employees. This comprehensive book will tell you how to set new hires up for success, structure compensation packages to maximize their involvement and work ethic, deal with problem areas before they become bad behavior, and motivate slow and often unmotivated employees.

There is so much crime in the earth and what causes so much killing and kidnapping, drive-bys, hatred, unforgiveness and jealousy among friends, family and strangers. My friends all I have ever wanted is to have fun with my friends, shoot pool, fish, hunt and just enjoy my life in general with my family and friends. Why are so many people different from me? I never wanted to do any of these crimes. All I have is love for all creation and my fellow man. What makes us criminals? What makes someone evil? Well, I think this book will answer most of these questions and give us the answers to solve most of those crimes and help change criminals to good citizens once again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alice, Meredith and Mossy find out all too soon that life in the fast lanes ain't easy, especially when you're a young, black woman from the south. If you looked up "sassy broad" in the dictionary, you'd find a picture of Alice Jones flashing a toothy smile at you. Being a woman of the night had made her hard to the core. However, despite her occupation, she considered herself a lady, determined to live life by her own rules, even if it meant breaking everyone else's rules in the process. Although they were sisters, Meredith and Alice were complete opposites. When she was forced to leave the south, Meredith moved in with Alice. With no money and no job, she was forced into the "family" business. It didn't take her long to realize that if she didn't find a safer way to make a living, she wasn't going to make it. Some secrets are meant to be kept. But Mossy found that keeping a secret was a heavy burden. And even the strongest person had her breaking point. Running from a secret that refused to be left behind drove Mossy right into Meredith's life and right into another mess.
