About Featured Book: Secret Babies for the Mafia Doctor by K.C. Crowne

A dark and enticing invitation,
On a yacht overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
I allowed a complete stranger to dominate me.
And he gave me a gift that changed my world forever.

I assumed we’d never meet again.
And I certainly didn’t expect to find him in my delivery room.
Maybe now I’ll tell him?!?

But it’s becoming abundantly clear Doctor Dangerous has a few dark secrets of his own.
Like his long history with the Greek mafia.

Now my baby daughters’ lives are in danger and I’ll do whatever it takes to protect them. Even if that means walking away from the man of my dreams.

Featured Book: So Shall The Tree Grow by Ninie Hammon

About Featured Book: So Shall The Tree Grow by Ninie Hammon

Free from 1/24/2023 through 1/31/2023

Family loyalties, deadly feuds, and international drug wars are brought to life in Ninie Hammon’s new intergenerational tale set in present-day Kentucky, four decades after the rise and fall of the Cornbread Mafia.

When Ruth Hannacker finds a “just-in-case-anything-happens-to-me” letter among her mother’s things after she was killed in a tornado, it opens a new chapter in the family’s decades-long, fraught, and often tragic story with Righteous Weed.

The letter from Jessica Monaghan Hannacker tells of the Tree House, a propane tank buried in the ground where Willie Ray Taggart stashed his marijuana money back in the heyday of the Cornbread Mafia. When Ruth finds the Tree House, she discovers $75,000 in cash and quart jars of Righteous Weed seed, the finest strain of marijuana ever developed.

Over the protests of 72-year-old Riley Hannacker, the only remaining living member of the original Cornbread Mafia, the family decides to grow an indoor crop, illegal in Kentucky, so they can patent the strain and get a license to grow in one of the 11 newly legal states. They plan to market it as a premium boutique cannabis, appealing to the nostalgia of the smokers’ first-time high.

But as so often happens with the best-laid plans, things quickly go awry. Jealousy, resentment, anger, greed, and deeply buried feelings from long gone wrongs resurface and wreak havoc with what is left of the family.

So Shall The Tree Grow is the fourth and final book in Ninie Hammon’s new Cornbread Mafia series, a fictional story inspired by the real Cornbread Mafia that sprang up in picturesque Marion County, Kentucky, and grew into the largest illegal marijuana-growing operation in U.S. history.

Featured Book: Uprooted: Family Trauma, Unknown Origins, and the Secretive History of Artificial Insemination by Peter J. Boni

About Featured Book: Uprooted: Family Trauma, Unknown Origins, and the Secretive History of Artificial Insemination by Peter J. Boni

How a journey of self-discovery unearthed the scandalous evolution of artificial insemination

By his forties, Peter J. Boni was an accomplished CEO, with a specialty in navigating high-tech companies out of hot water. Just before his fiftieth birthday, Peter’s seventy-five-year-old mother unveiled a bombshell: His deceased father was not his biological father. Peter was conceived in 1945 via an anonymous sperm donor. The emotional upheaval upon learning that he was “misattributed” rekindled traumas long past and fueled his relentless research to find his genealogy. Over two decades, he gained an encyclopedic knowledge of the scientific, legal, and sociological history of reproductive technology as well as its practices, advances, and consequences. Through twenty-first century DNA analysis, Peter finally quenched his thirst for his origin.

In Uprooted, Peter J. Boni intimately shares his personal odyssey and acquired expertise to spotlight the free market methods of gamete distribution that conceives dozens, sometimes hundreds, of unknowing half-siblings from a single donor. This thought-provoking book reveals the inner workings—and secrets—of the multibillion-dollar fertility industry, resulting in a richly detailed account of an ethical aspect of reproductive science that, until now, has not been so thoroughly explored.

About Featured Book: Her Royal Treatment by Kai Lesy

It’s like being cherished. Worshipped and unbelievably fulfilled, by four of the most beautiful men I’d ever laid eyes on. All at the same time.

The King ordered me to lock down.
In my country, his word is final – especially for the Princess.
I’m both infuriated and screwed!

My anger transforms into curiosity when my eyes fall on my protectors.
Four ex-military mercenaries. Brothers by war.
Now they’re laying down the law.
Ordering me to bunker down with them,
In a remote mansion in the mountains.

And as the snows continue to fall…
Danger lurks around every corner,
My survival depends upon complete cooperation.
But I’ve never been one to take orders.

Yet as I’m faced with my own budding attraction for exactly the type of men I push away from,
And the obvious backlash that would come from such a scandalous affair…

I find myself saying one thing: Screw it. Now I get to call the shots.
