  Get ready to become delightfully unstuck. 
  Bestselling author Rachael Herron is stuck. She and her partner have lived in their beloved East Oakland home for 15 years, almost as long as they’ve been married. But the house is in a rough area, and they’re tied to a mortgage she’s not sure they’ll ever be able to pay off.   
  So when the whispered longing for adventure grows into a bellow she can’t ignore, Rachael decides to utilize not only her dual citizenship but also her impulsive nature.  
  She and her partner will abandon their standard-issue American life and move to the far-distant shores of Aotearoa.  
  It’ll be easy, she thinks. It’ll be fun! They’ll ditch the mortgage and pack a couple of bags, traveling light and fast to find a new life. She’ll say goodbye to everyone she knows and loves, board the plane using a one-way ticket, and surely, that will solve everything.  
  But even though she hasn’t bargained on the difficult realities behind relocations made with no final destination in mind, she can’t begin to imagine the untold surprises that will unfurl along her way.  
  “Herron’s jaunty prose will have readers breezily flipping through the pages as she enriches the narrative with indelible metaphors. This true story shows that making a big move can be a daunting but worthwhile and fascinating endeavor.”—Kirkus Reviews  
  In this no-holds-barred love story, a delightful cross between Eat, Pray, Love and Under the Tuscan Sun, Rachael chronicles the messy, enchanting, and growth-demanding challenges of relocation and personal resurrection. 
  “The story of Herron’s move to the other side of the world in Unstuck made me feel EVERYTHING: curiosity, grief, transformation and joy. I LOVED every moment of this glorious, heart-warming book.”—Monna McDiarmid, author of After Everything

  My Secret Life is an anonymously penned memoir written during a period from the 1840s to the 1880s by a wealthy and sex obsessed English gentleman who refers to himself simply as ‘Walter’. Part confessional, part investigative erotic journalism, it meticulously documents every detail of the author’s prolific sexual encounters, offering us in the process an eye and thigh opening account of life behind closed doors in the Victorian age.
  
  Women, in both mind and body, were the all consuming object of Walter’s interest. From early youth through to old age his quest for erotic discovery and adventure with them was never diminished.
  
  Unlike contemporary 19th century erotic texts, such as The Pearl, whose sole object was to titillate, Walter’s interest in his subjects did not end with the extinguishing of the carnal flame. His hunger to understand the circumstances and minds of the women he encountered is never upstaged by the sex. Their potted life histories, their most intimate desires and acts were shared with him and in turn meticulously recorded by him, written down verbatim while still fresh in his mind.
  
  The resulting poignant record of a lost era and the intimate moments of the women who inhabited it offer us a remarkable insight into the 19th century that cannot be gleaned from any other source.
  
  The complete unabridged text is being released as a fully scored audiofilm (an audio book with accompanying music soundtrack) by film composer Dominic Crawford Collins.

  American Princess - The Love...

  A behind-the-scenes look into the life of Meghan Markle and her romance with Prince Harry—a dishy, delightful must-listen filled with exclusive insights for anyone obsessed with the Royal Family. 
  Leslie Carroll’s books on royalty are “an irresistible combination of People Magazine and the History Channel.”—Chicago Tribune 
  When Prince Harry of Wales took his American girlfriend, Meghan Markle, to have tea with his grandmother the queen, avid royal watchers had a hunch that a royal wedding was not far off. That prediction came true on November 27, 2017, when the gorgeous, glamorous twosome announced their engagement to the world. As they prepare to tie the knot in a stunning ceremony on May 19, 2018, that will be unprecedented in royal history, people are clamoring to know more about the beautiful American who captured Prince Harry’s heart. 
  Born and raised in Los Angeles to a white father of German, English, and Irish descent and an African American mother whose ancestors had been enslaved on a Georgia plantation, Meghan has proudly embraced her biracial heritage. In addition to being a star of the popular television series Suits, she is devoted to her humanitarian work—a passion she shares with Harry. Though Meghan was married once before, Prince Harry is a modern royal, and the Windsors have welcomed her into the tight-knit clan they call “The Firm.” Even a generation ago, it would have been unthinkable, as well as impermissible, for any member of Great Britain’s royal family to consider marrying someone like Meghan. Professional actresses were considered scandalous and barely respectable. And the last time an American divorcee married into the Royal Family, it provoked a constitutional crisis! 
  In American Princess, Leslie Carroll provides context to Harry and Meghan’s romance by leading listeners through centuries of Britain’s rule-breaking royal marriages, as well as the love matches that were never permitted to make it to the altar; followed by a never-before-seen glimpse into the little-known life of the woman bringing the Royal Family into the 21st century; and her dazzling, thoroughly modern romance with Prince Harry.

  Virginia Louise Giuffre New memoir: The Story of Nobody’s Girl is a gripping, compassionate, and unflinching portrait of one woman’s fight for justice against some of the most powerful forces in the world. Told with cinematic depth and emotional honesty, this book traces Virginia Giuffre’s journey from a troubled childhood in Florida to the unimaginable world of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell — a world of privilege, exploitation, and silence. 
  Across ten evocative chapters, it follows her transformation from a frightened teenager trapped in a system of abuse to a global advocate whose courage sparked an international reckoning on trafficking, consent, and power. Through her lawsuits against Epstein, Maxwell, and Prince Andrew, Virginia shattered centuries of impunity surrounding the wealthy and well-connected, forcing institutions to confront their own complicity. 
  This book covers: 
  ●     The hidden systems of power, privilege, and complicity that enable exploitation and silence survivors. 
  ●     Virginia Giuffre’s personal transformation from victim to global advocate for justice and reform. 
  ●     The broader fight for accountability, prevention, and empathy in the global battle against human trafficking and abuse. 
  More than a biography, The Story of Nobody’s Girl is a testament to resilience and moral clarity. It explores how trauma becomes purpose, how silence can be broken, and how one voice can ignite global change. This is not only Virginia’s story — it is a rallying cry for every survivor and every reader to believe in the power of truth. 
  Get a copy of this book and be inspired to speak, to listen, and to never stay silent again.
