Sometimes you have to break all the rules to find everything you never knew you wanted. Come along for the fun, sexy ride as billionaire Fitz Silver pursues his biggest challenge yet—taming wild child Jennifer Stone. Loaded with heat, humor, and heart, this steamy, small-town, standalone romance is unputdownable. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after that will leave you thinking about it long after you read the last page.

Silver Island’s golden boy Fitz Silver keeps his business dealings clean, his affairs private, and fulfills every promise he makes. Infuriatingly so. He’s six-plus feet of gentleman in the streets and an unrelenting alpha in the sheets. I should know. I enjoyed a single scorching night in his bed over the summer. But contrary to him being every woman’s fantasy, Fitz is my worst nightmare. I’m a risk taker, a rule breaker. I wasn’t looking for more than a little vacation fun, but that passionate night knocked me off my feet. When a chance encounter brings me face-to-face with the man who ruined me for all others, I know better than to land in his bed again. Unfortunately, outside my job as a high school principal, I’m not known for my good decisions. Once again I plan to leave Mr. Silver and our surprising connection behind, but he’s annoyingly unforgettable, and then two pink lines change everything.

I watched her for six weeks before I knew who she was. I bid $1.3 million the moment I did.

The anonymous cam girl was my secret escape at the end of long days. I never planned to be anything more than a stranger in her audience—until she put one night up for auction, and I recognized the wildflower birthmark in the poster.

Eden Locke. My little sister's best friend. Off-limits in every way that matters.

Eden was furious. But I didn't bid to collect. I bid so no other man could.

And when her three overprotective brothers ambush us—ready to drag her home—it's my lie that saves her: we're dating. Monogamously. And she's quit the cam work.

With promises to keep things clean and respectful (in my defense, I did try), we're now fake dating with five simple rules.

Easy as cherry pie.

Until our practiced kisses stop feeling counterfeit. Until I'm inventing reasons to touch her, and she's whispering my name like it isn't pretend.

Eden feels it, too. That's why she's reminding me of our expiration date, building walls faster than I can climb them. She's forgetting I built an empire on one skill: making people crave what I'm selling. And I've never wanted to close a deal more in my life.

I'm done pretending—and this time, I'm bidding on forever.

Book Tour: The Self Chosen One

When Prophecy Replaces Accountability

 

Religion / Christian Living / Spiritual Growth

Date Published: June 30, 2026

Publisher: Lucid Books Publishing

What happens when someone claims to speak for God—but refuses to answer to anyone?

In today’s platform-driven culture, prophetic voices can gain influence almost overnight. But when charisma grows faster than character and authority operates without accountability, the Church becomes vulnerable to confusion, manipulation, and spiritual harm.

In The Self-Chosen One: When Prophecy Replaces Accountability, pastor Kevin P. Horath addresses this growing challenge. Writing from the perspective of a pastor who deeply values the work of the Holy Spirit, Horath does not reject prophecy. Instead, he calls the Church to restore it to its proper place within humility, character, and biblical oversight.

In this book you will discover:

• How to recognize genuine prophetic ministry versus self-appointed authority

• Why spiritual gifts must function within biblical accountability and church structure

• How social media and platform culture have reshaped spiritual influence

• The dangers of spiritual narcissism and unchecked charisma

• Practical ways pastors and leaders can protect congregations

• How to test prophetic claims without rejecting the Spirit

The Self-Chosen One is a warning and an invitation—helping the Church recover a healthy balance between Spirit and Scripture, passion and discernment.

Teaser: Fighting For My Family

Fighting For Family by Cassie Colton releases on September 8th!

https://geni.us/FightingForFamily

Read With Kindle Unlimited

Derrick “Leo” Armstrong built Serenity Securities as a refuge—an unbreakable brotherhood forged from the military and second chances. On Serenity Mountain, he finally found the life he’d always dreamed of: a home, a purpose, and Catherine, the woman he’d loved for a lifetime. With three children and another on the way, Leo believed his world was complete.

Then one mission shattered everything.

Left reeling by the devastating news of her husband’s death, Catherine must navigate grief while protecting the family Leo adored. As the men of Serenity Securities rally to bring their fallen brother home, the mountain community surrounds Catherine with the same fierce loyalty Leo once gave them. But when a final letter from Leo forces her to face an impossible truth, Catherine makes the heartbreaking choice to call off the search. Her children need closure. Life must move forward.

Leo’s team refuses to accept it.

Driven by loyalty, love, and the lessons Leo carved into their souls, the men of Serenity Securities push deeper into danger, determined to uncover the truth about their mission and bring their brother home. Their greatest mission isn’t one they were trained for. 

It’s one they learned from Leo himself: Family is worth fighting for.

Numbness takes over. Every muscle gives out. I crumble to the floor, my forehead pressed against the cold wood. I let out a sound I don’t even recognize.

Eight months. The best eight months of my life.

Gone in an instant.

Not because I stopped loving her.

Because loving her means losing her.

And right now, losing her is the only way to save her.

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

💜surprise pregnancy

💜one-night stands that turn into forever

💜protective alpha heroes

💜emotional intensity

💜dangerous exes

💜found safety

💜guaranteed happily-ever-afters

One reckless night was supposed to be forgettable.
Instead, it changed everything.

I wasn’t looking for trouble when I met Jack Dare in a Charleston bar.

But one look at the devastatingly handsome stranger and suddenly I wanted things I’d spent years denying myself.

Freedom.
Desire.
Him.

So for one night, I stopped being careful.

One drink turned into stolen kisses.
One kiss turned into a night I still can’t forget.
And by morning, I disappeared before Jack could learn the truth about me.

Because men like him don’t survive people like my ex-boyfriend.

Powerful. Ruthless. Obsessed with control.
The kind of man who doesn’t let go once he decides you belong to him.

I thought leaving was the only way to protect Jack.

Until two pink lines changed everything.

Now I’m standing outside his Miami doorstep pregnant, terrified, and running out of options.

But the man who opens the door isn’t shocked.
He’s furious someone made me afraid to come to him.

Jack Dare is protective, relentless, and impossible to walk away from.
The kind of man who would burn the world down for the people he loves.

And the more danger closes in around us, the harder it becomes to remember this was never supposed to be forever.

Because Jack isn’t letting me run again.

And for the first time in my life…
I don’t want to.

Perfect for readers who love surprise pregnancy, one-night stands that turn into forever, protective alpha heroes, emotional intensity, dangerous exes, found safety, and guaranteed happily-ever-afters.
