Queen of the Underworld - A...

Felicity Heaton

Hades, the wickedly dark god-king of the Underworld, needs a queen.
And he’s chosen Persephone.
All Persephone has ever desired is control of her own life, and someone noticing her once in a while. Kept in her mother’s shadow, and overlooked by the entirety of Olympus, her dream seems impossible…and now she’s doomed to wed a dull god of her mother’s choosing….
Until she crosses paths with a handsome, dark warrior who rouses wildfire heat in her veins—a male whose immense power is unmistakable, and who matches the fearful tales whispered in Olympus—stories of a cruel, heartless king who rules his realm of death with an iron fist.
When Hades abducts her and imprisons her in the depths of the Underworld, a dormant part of her awakens. And as she slowly discovers the truth about him, Persephone isn’t sure whether the snarling, dark beast of a king is her doom…or her saviour…but she knows one thing….
She will embrace the fire he awakens in her with every heated glance, and every vicious growl.
And use it to tame him and forge her dreams into reality.
Because, Persephone, the quiet, gentle goddess of nature, desires a king.
And nothing will stop her from claiming his black heart.
Queen of the Underworld is a forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers paranormal romance novel retelling the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone, and a prequel in my Guardians of Hades series. In the vein of an adult beauty and the beast, it features a grumpy-sunshine pairing that will steal your heart, with a secretly cinnamon roll hero and a secretly fiery heroine, and a powerful forever kind of love.

How to Trade Stocks While Having...

Emma C Holmes

The narrative is about Lewis L. McKinsey a wealthy businessman who reminisces of his past. Initially, the saga describes business reality. Then later deliberately unfolds into encumbered details reminiscing of the protagonist coming of age; by exploring varied vibrant, profound glimpses of exuberant youthful experiences, especially, when visiting the Jersey Shore, which occurred long before his college days, and successful career apparatus. Imagine the beauty of the New Jersey seashore, back in the fifties, which some may remember; considering that many old-timers today would resonate with hearing an old song while walking the boardwalk at the New Jersey Shore, and that song was “Those Wildwood days” by Bobby Rydell. Lewis surmised that even today that memorable song is still being played; however, back in the day, the melody seemed to have held more reverence. In those days hanging out with his friends and consuming cases of Cold Duck, provides somewhat of a lens into their rebellious ways, and meeting wayward women; whom they thought was the greatest thing since sliced bread.
The intentional purpose of this narrative is to provide an absorbing whimsical tale of a wealthy man who deliberately reflects on humbler times. This may be considered somewhat of a rags-to-riches saga. Witness how Lewis derives his obvious present conclusion while illustrating how he arrived at being a Wall Street contender.
This exposition entails elements of love, unavoidable challenges; and graceful benevolent experiences which contributed to an enhanced life well lived on purpose

The Velvet Glove - Robots and...

Harry Harrison

The Velvet Glove by Harry Harrison is a sharp, thought-provoking tale that examines what it truly means to be human. First published in Fantastic Universe in 1956, the story follows a robot named Jon Venex, built to serve humanity in a society where machines have begun to think, feel, and perhaps surpass their creators. When Jon meets a human woman who sees beyond his metal shell, the story becomes both a love story and a quiet tragedy about prejudice, purpose, and identity. With crisp dialogue and a touch of irony, Harrison explores the uneasy relationship between man and machine—long before artificial intelligence became a common theme in science fiction.
Like much of Harrison’s early work, The Velvet Glove blends social commentary with pulpy adventure energy. It reflects his fascination with how technology reshapes ethics and emotion, and how progress can expose the flaws in human nature. Beneath the futuristic surface lies a timeless question: if a machine can feel compassion, who is truly more human?
Harry Harrison (1925–2012) was an American author best known for his wit, imagination, and biting satire. Born in Stamford, Connecticut, he served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II before turning to writing and illustrating for pulp magazines. He gained fame with the Stainless Steel Rat series—rollicking space adventures featuring a charming rogue—and with Make Room! Make Room! (1966), the grim novel that inspired the film Soylent Green.
Harrison’s work often mixed humor with moral inquiry, challenging the militarism, greed, and hypocrisy of modern life while celebrating intelligence and individuality. Whether through a rebellious con man or a soulful robot, his stories reminded readers that humanity’s greatest strength—and weakness—lies in its capacity to choose compassion over control.
