A Harmless Little Game (Harmless #1)
By Meli Raine / Genre: Contemporary, Romance
Four years ago I lost my virginity on live, streaming television.
Too bad I wasn’t awake for it.
The video went viral. Of course it would. A Senator’s daughter on camera? Wouldn’t you click “share”? Besides, that’s what three of the four guys in the video did.
Share.
They shared me.
But that fourth guy? The nondescript one in the background in the upper left corner of the screen, just sitting on the couch? The only one who did nothing?
Not one single thing.
That was my boyfriend, Drew.
And that was the last time I saw him.
Until today, when my father—now on a path to the White House—hired him as head of security for my new team as I return home after four years of “recovering” in an undisclosed location that involved white lab coats, needles, pills and damage control.
You see, the other three guys never went to jail. Never had charges pressed.
Never faced consequences.
Until today.
Game on.

After The Collapse: A dystopian novel of our future after a worldwide economic and social collapse, and then of finding friendship and love amidst the chaos.
By H.H. Stinnis / Genre: Dystopian, Science Fiction
Ex-Army Ranger Stan Dalton and his wife know the world is changing, and not for the better. They’ve both had the undeniable feeling for some time now that something horrible is coming soon that could change their lives forever. They buy a remote cabin in the Colorado Rockies, and begin the process of preparing for hard times. When Stan’s wife dies of cancer, he must struggle to carry on alone with their plans.
Then the Collapse occurs, and it’s the worst economic and social collapse in history. All commerce grinds to a halt and the dollar dies along with our markets. This collapse has been engineered to take America down, and with it the other major superpowers, and it brings about the end of modern society around the globe. Now the Elite can begin anew in North America, with new laws and a new currency to replace the dollar and the Euro.
Prices soar out of control and cash is unavailable with the banks closed. Food and gasoline soon run out as supplies are not replenished and then clean water stops flowing with the loss of electricity. All emergency services cease and the politicians have deserted their country. Rule of law ends and people everywhere are fighting for their lives. America is now a place very few people were prepared for, and now many of them are regressing as well. Good and moral men are forced to live like animals in order to survive and feed their families. Stan’s military training, his cunning, and his preps are the only things that will keep him alive and safe now.
Then one day Stan must choose to save a young woman or let her be raped and murdered in cold blood. Saving her means taking her in and providing for her, while not knowing if he can even trust her. Will she be a good partner for him at the cabin, or another deady foe? In the end, he gains valuable intel about a nearby group of men who are terrorizing the region. Will this group find his cabin during their searches for food and supplies? Are there others like them out there?
The enemy could be anywhere now, and while Stan fought in many deadly campaigns and black operations, this is different. Gangs are leaving the cities in search of supplies, and foreign troops are rumored to be on American soil. Stan will need to make trusted friends and allies in order to overcome these new threats.

Ryder Axton
I always fight hard, f*ck harder, and never let myself get personally involved. But my assignment to apprehend Eduardo Miguel comes to a grinding halt when I find a missing federal witness held captive in his basement. It becomes fucking personal, fast!
Keeping Farrington safe, even if it–or more likely she–kills me, is now my only mission. But she’s terrified and fights me at every turn. Earning her trust becomes more than a way to save both our lives, it’s like an addictive drug. I need it–I need her to put her faith in me.
When she begins investigating the hidden parts of my soul, I almost can’t deny her. I know I can protect her. I know I could pleasure her in one explosive night she’d always remember and I’d never forget. What I don’t know is how I could be falling so hard. There’s no way in hell I can let that happen; getting too close to me comes with an ominous curse that won’t be defied.
I thought I had nothing to lose. I was wrong.
Rachel Farrington
I should’ve never taken that dangerous shortcut through the unlit alley to the frat party. It was where I saw a fellow student brutally murdered and how I made my way onto a cartel leader’s hit list.
As a federal witness, I thought I was safe in the protective custody of the FBI . . . that is until I woke up chained in the monster’s basement.
When a powerful and lethal soldier claiming to be a bounty hunter shows up, I’m not sure if he’s rescuing me or dragging me towards a greater hell. But after a series of experiences that defy death, the overwhelmingly sexy, dirty-minded, Navy Seal trained and hot blooded bounty hunter–who obviously plays by his own rules–just might win my trust.
He is not an ordinary man. He’s strong, dark and deadly; his past is mysterious and his motives unreadable. He seems to be made of the stuff of myth and legend, and of ink and steel.
Is Ryder Axton for real? Or is he employed by my captor for a more sinister purpose?
When death comes, can we defy it… again?

Embracing the Wild in Your Dog: An understanding of the authors of our dog’s behavior – nature and the wolf
By Bryan Bailey / Genre: Nature & Ecology, Science & Math
Are dogs four-legged humans?
Some time ago, dogs became as interwoven in the American culture as baseball, apple pie and the Fourth of July. In fact, most dogs have trumped evolution itself and jumped straight to being four legged humans where they are adorned with human names, designer outfits and fed diets that would confound even the best nutritionist. In most cases, we’ve granted them our human intelligence and our sacred human emotions as well. They are no longer dogs to us, they’re family! Yet, for all that man has done to carve the wolf from the wild to create a surrogate human, today’s dog is still a wolf at heart and the accompanying instincts borne from such ancestry defines how the dog approaches its world.
The most damaging problem associated with dog ownership today
The ontogeny of anthropomorphism, where we attach our human traits to our pets, is the most damaging and paralytic problem associated with dog ownership today. Believing in a fairy tale world where dogs possess the same moral consciousness and sense of altruism as attributed to humans has led to a drastic increase in leash laws, dogs being outlawed in a rising number of city and national parks, some breeds being banned in several states, an alarming escalation of aggression to humans, a rising cost of homeowner and business insurance, and a record number of clinically maladaptive dogs.
The control you always dreamed of
This book is not a training book. It does not cover obedience topics such as heel, sit, down, stay, and come. Instead, it’s about righting the ship of American dog ownership by changing our perception of our dogs. It is about the author growing up in the Alaskan wild under the tutelage and guardianship of a Special Forces survival instructor who introduced him to the ways of wolves and the similarities they shared with dogs. It is about the wisdom and splendor of nature and the many life lessons she provides. Mostly, it’s about developing a deep understanding of the authors of your dog’s behavior; nature and the wolf. In doing so, you will truly learn who and what your dog really is and the why and how of its behavior.
In this book, you will learn the tools that nature gave them to survive and coexist in both the mountains and in our homes. You will learn how activating and deactivating natural impulses and mechanisms in your dog will lead to the harmonious existence and the control you always dreamed of.
Embrace the wild in your dog
Most of all, you will come to embrace the wild in your dog as well as the grace and the peace that comes with this acceptance.
