    FROM SCARCITY TO ABUNDANCE 
    WHAT IF your limiting believes disappeared overnight? 
    WHAT IF there was no "victim syndrome' to hide behind? 
    WHAT IF you realize you are enough and deserving? 
    WHAT IF living life to the full potential was your only option? 
    WHAT IF you you assume one hundred percent ownership of your resources and your life? 
    With the tools provided in this book, you will feel empowered to take action and begin to write your own success story. 
    This book is written for those aspiring entrepreneurs chained to their "comfort zone" and tormented with self-imposed limiting believes. 
    This book is written through the eyes of a young girl as she witnesses her mother overcome poverty, physical abuse, scarcity of essential resources, and societal suppression. Based on true stories which took place over two decades, starting in the 1980s between Mexico City and the province of Mexico. The young girl was the fourth generation and destined to continue the cycle of scarcity. Through the mentorship, continued encouragement, and support received through her mother and grandmother, she escaped to a mindset of abundance. 
    The survivalist skills she developed and the life principles passed on from generation to generation are the only tools she inherits to break the chains that keep most people in similar situations tied to their "comfort zone." Now, as an adult, the young girl's lenses of innocence are removed. She abstracts the principles that helped her go from scarcity to abundance and shares them here to empower the readers to do the same. She calls them the Mastermind principles: the grouped principles of resilience, tenacity, accountability, visualization, and self-imposed responsibility. The author invites you to follow these principles to break away from any chains that keep you from living a life of abundance and holistic wealth.

    As this classic literature derived queer erotic romance continues, a new boy dwells within the House of Otter with Alexander. Adjusting to a life of extravagance and sexual discipline continues to thrill and trouble the young otter as fresh fantasies and furry men present themselves to satisfy his growing appetite for passionate submission. 
    Battling the expected trades Alexander must make for his recently satiated need of financial security, he learns more about the inner-workings and secrets of the mysterious estate and the magical ties which reward obedience. 
    As he explores his relationship with each gay man and how it corolates with his past as a husler, a discovery within the mansion may help him understand more about his keeper and the seemingly magical house he now calls home. What he finds among the secret doors and hidden rooms will reveal a history that will impact every otter’s future. 
    With just as many jockstraps, furry otter boys, Daddy and boy dynamics, CBT, bondage equipment, fetish gear, power exchange, and mystical forbidden fantasies; this second book promises to be equally sinister and kinky as the first, but with even more dark deception. 
    It’s Edgar Allan Poe but with a queer, kinky, and paranormal twist! 
    This MM BDSM Paranormal Dark Erotic Romance takes consent seriously. No otter boys were harmed (unless they wanted to be) in the writing of this book.*

    The Gospel of Matthew is the first book of the New Testament of the Bible and one of the three synoptic Gospels. It tells how Israel's Messiah, Jesus, comes to his people and forms a community of disciples, of how he taught the people through such events as the Sermon on the Mount and its Beatitudes, and how Israel becomes divided and how Jesus condemns this hostile Israel. This culminates in his departure from the Temple and his execution. At this point many people reject Jesus, and on his resurrection he sends the disciples to the gentiles.

    A vibrant and illuminating exploration of medieval thinking on women's beauty, sexuality, and behavior. 
     
     
     
    What makes for the ideal woman? How should she look, love, and be? In this high-spirited history, medievalist Eleanor Janega turns to the Middle Ages, the era that bridged the ancient world and modern society, to unfurl its suppositions about women and reveal what's shifted over time—and what hasn't. 
     
     
     
    Enshrined medieval thinkers, almost always male, subscribed to a blend of classical Greek and Roman philosophy and Christian theology for their concepts of the sexes. For the height of female attractiveness, they chose the mythical Helen of Troy, whose imagined pear shape, small breasts, and golden hair served as beauty's epitome. Casting Eve's shadow over medieval women, they derided them as oversexed sinners, inherently lustful, insatiable, and weak. And, unless a nun, a woman was to be the embodiment of perfect motherhood. 
     
     
     
    In The Once and Future Sex, Janega unravels the restricting expectations on medieval women and the ones on women today. She boldly questions why, if our ideas of women have changed drastically over time, we cannot reimagine them now to create a more equitable future.
