  I’m pregnant. 
  Gripping the test, I can’t stop staring at the blue cross in the window. 
  Tears roll, hot and slow, down my cheeks. I huddle in a low ball, emotion bowing me. Blue whines and presses against my side, his warm tongue on my cheek, his musky scent enveloping me. A familiar comfort. 
  Will my child love Blue as I do? 
  My phone vibrates on the counter, and I hiccup a sob. I squeeze my eyes shut, pressing more tears free, and hold my breath. Blood rushes in my ears, my heart throbs in my chest…a tidal wave is washing me away. I can’t do this. 
  The ping of a voicemail brings my eyes open. I’m staring at the cross again. 
  Blue shifts closer, leaning his warm weight against me. As tall as a Great Dane, with the elegant snout of a collie, the markings of a wolf, and mismatched eyes—one blue the other brown—Blue means the world to me. 
  My heart will have to make room for more. 
  Fear slices through me, adrenaline flooding my veins, pulling another whine from Blue. I stand quickly and glance at my phone. 
  Robert Maxim. 
  He can’t know. My eyes trace to the hotel bathroom trash can. Wrap up the test and put it in there. 
  But my hand won’t follow the advice. My fingers grip tighter, refusing to release the small wand of plastic. The proof. The truth. 
  I grab my phone and step back into the hotel room. Blue stays close to my hip, his nose tapping my waist once, a reminder he is there. 
  I shove the wand into my bag, into a zipper interior pocket, and close it. Locking it away. 
  Just throw it out.I can’t. 
  My hand strays to my stomach, and Blue’s nose swipes against my fingers. Vision blurred with tears, I stand in the center of the room, my mind reeling. Lightning sizzles across my vision, and thunder ricochets inside my mind. 
  I’m not cut out for motherhood.I know I’ll survive. It’s everyone I love who dies.That changes now. 
  P.S. The dog never dies.

  Pirates of Sausalito - Houseboat...

  Imagine Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test meets Murder, She Wrote. 
  One part hippies grooving on the waterfront and fighting the man, one part murder mystery. 
  It’s the 1970s, and the “houseboat wars” erupt in Sausalito on the site of Marinship, the abandoned World War II shipyard. Hippies and squatters are living free and easy on houseboats in a ramshackle shantytown, and greedy developers are determined to evict them and build new docks to attract affluent residents. 
  The counterculture is in full flower and the houseboaters, fearing their community will be destroyed, resist eviction with street theater, civil disobedience, monkeywrenching, and more. Like climbing into dinghies and pushing away police boats with oars. Like sinking a barge to block a pile driver. All in front of TV cameras! 
  Then, someone gets stabbed. 
  Pirates of Sausalito is fiction, but inspired by true events. As Larry Clinton, former president of the Sausalito Historical Society, said, “If it didn't happen exactly this way, it could have.”

  Parisian private investigator Aimée Leduc doesn’t know that her life is about to be upended. Her ex, Melac, has been hounding her to move their daughter, Chloé, to Brittany. Aimée is fed up with his threats to take her to court and has stopped answering his calls. Which is why she doesn’t know he’s waiting for her by the Bassin de la Villette as she leaves a client’s office late one night. When she finds him there, bleeding in the canal, he has just been stabbed by an assailant, who knocks Aimée unconscious and plants the bloody knife in her hands. 
   
  Now Aimée is in police custody, debilitated by a concussion, with overwhelming evidence pointing to her as Melac’s killer. She must figure out who murdered Melac—not an easy job, given the target on his back as a former homicide investigator. Cut off from her typical network and forced to operate under multiple layers of cover, Aimée must go deep into the underbelly of Paris’s 19th arrondissement, where she rubs shoulders with biker gangs, paranoid journalists, grieving parents, and frustratingly tight-lipped ex-cops on her hunt for justice.

  In the unforgiving streets of the Bronx, there are two kinds of people—the ones who hustle and the ones who get hustled. The Silk Noose is the gripping origin story of Vanessa Finessa, a young woman who’s mastered the art of the finesse, turning survival into a science and the streets into her playground. 
  From the moment she was born into struggle, Vanessa knew the world wouldn’t hand her anything. Raised by a single mother working overtime to keep the lights on, she learned early that power isn’t given—it’s taken. Watching the game from the shadows, she studied the moves of those who made it and the mistakes of those who didn’t. By the time she hit her teenage years, she was no longer just observing—she was playing, outsmarting, and outmaneuvering the very people who underestimated her. 
  But the thing about the game? It never lets you leave clean. Every finesse comes with a price, and when the stakes get too high, Vanessa is forced to ask herself: Is she controlling the hustle, or is it controlling her? 
  Told in raw, unfiltered prose, The Silk Noose is a story of ambition, power, and the cost of survival. It’s about the choices we make, the consequences we can’t escape, and the question every hustler eventually faces—how far are you willing to go to win? 
  Perfect for fans of urban fiction, street-lit, and high-stakes drama, The Silk Noose pulls no punches and takes you deep into a world where every move matters, and trust is the deadliest gamble of all. 
  Narrated by Darius Steele, this audiobook brings Vanessa’s world to life with intensity, grit, and undeniable energy. 
  Press play—because once you step into Vanessa Finessa’s world, there’s no turning back.

  The Camp

  There are always stories told around the fire at summer camp—tall tales about gruesome murders and unhinged killers, concocted to scare new arrivals and lend an extra jolt of excitement to those hormone-charged nights. At Camp Luft-Shawk, nicknamed Camp Love Shack, there are stories about a creeping fog that brings death with it. But here, they're not just campfire tales. Here, the stories are real. 
   
   
   
  Twenty years ago, a girl's body was found on a ledge above the lake, arms crossed over her heart. Some said it was part of a suicide pact, connected to the nearby Haven Commune. Brooke, Rona, and Wendy were among the teenagers at camp that summer, looking for fun and sun, sex and adventure. They've never breathed a word about what really happened—or about the night their friendship shattered. 
   
   
   
  Now the camp, renamed Camp Fog Lake, has reopened for a new generation, and many of those who were there on that long-ago night are returning for an alumni weekend. But something is stirring at the lake again. As the fog rolls in, evil comes with it. Those stories were a warning, and they didn't listen. And the only question is, who will live long enough to regret it?
