Wondering if science could explain how he survived his 40-year avalanche of drugs and alcohol, Ozzy Osbourne became one of a handful of people in the world to have his entire DNA mapped in 2010. It was a highly complex, $65,000 process, but the results were conclusive: Ozzy is a genetic anomaly. The "Full Ozzy Genome" contained variants that scientists had never before encountered and the findings were presented at the prestigious TEDMED Conference in San Diego-making headlines around the world. The procedure was in part sponsored by The Sunday Times of London, which had already caused an international fururoe by appointing Ozzy Osbourne its star health advice columnist. The newpaper argued that Ozzy's mutliple near-death experiences, 40-year history of drug abuse, and extreme hypocondria qualified him more than any other for the job. The column was an overnight hit, being quickly picked up by Rolling Stone to give it a global audience of millions. In Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy, Ozzy answers reader's questions with his outrageous wit and surprising wisdom, digging deep into his past to tell the memoir-style survival stories never published before-and offer guidance that no sane human being should follow. Part humor, part memoir, and part bad advice, Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy will include some of the best material from his published columns, answers to celebrities' medical questions, charts, sidebars, and more.

Dreams of tranquility go careening into the unknown... The war is over, and I long to do nothing more than sit at my beloved Master's feet. Instead, I'm in charge of a camp full of POWs, trying to make their lives more tolerable than my own time behind the razor wire. And then 2 little blue lines on a plastic stick change everything. Pregnant? Ryan is desperate to keep me safe. He's putting me in a box, and the harder he pushes, the more I push back. Once, my whole world revolved around him. Now I rarely call him Sir. And then he pushes too far, and I use my safe word. Freedom _______________ HEA, Explicit sex, D/s, punishments. This is the final book of the Finding Home Series. Lots of sexy times, angst, danger, and definitely an HEA. Excerpt: “Come on, one more time!” Her eyes closed tight with effort, Liz pushed the first baby out and into the doctor’s waiting hands. The baby looked startled, as though she’d been sleeping peacefully until suddenly being thrust into the bright lights. “It’s a girl!” the doctor pronounced as she laid the slippery, squirming, suddenly-bawling baby on Liz’s chest. “What’s her name?” It took Ryan a moment to realize she’d asked a question. “Um, Mercy. After Liz’s mom.” The nurse was drying the baby off and doing an exam. “Liz,” she called softly. She opened her eyes. “I need to take her over to the other bed. She’s breathing a little fast.” Liz nodded. Ryan was torn between his daughter a dozen feet away, and his wife whose hand he held tight, and who had another baby to deliver. The decision was made for him when a contraction started. Liz screwed up her face and bore down. “C’mon, love, you can do it. Let’s get Hannah out here to meet her sister.” A handful of pushes later the other baby slipped out and she, too, looked peeved at her circumstances. Ryan felt the tension of the last two days slip out of him as his second daughter joined her cries with the first, and he let out a laugh at the expression on her face. “She looks just like you when you’re mad!” Liz didn’t respond; her eyes were closed with exhaustion, though her grip on Ryan’s hand was tight. A nurse moved the baby from Liz’s chest to a warmer where the team started drying her off. “Ryan,” she whispered, “go check on them. Please.” He squeezed her hand and left her side. Both babies were now pink and protesting. He looked from one to another—tiny little girls with heads full of dark blond hair, and so exactly like each other he wasn’t sure who was whom. He turned back to look at Liz, but something wasn't right. The nurse told the doctor that Liz’s blood pressure had jumped up, and as she spoke, Liz began shaking so hard the whole bed rattled. The doctor called out orders in a calm voice, and suddenly the room was filled with a buzz of activity. Ryan watched in disbelief as Liz continued to shake even as they turned her to her side and gave her oxygen, and stuck something into her IV line. No one paid attention to him as they worked quickly and efficiently. The seizure seemed to go on forever and ever, but finally it quieted. Liz was now surrounded by lines and machines and people who had appeared out of nowhere. There was the steady beeping of a heart monitor. Someone opened the door, someone else released the brakes on the bed, and in an instant, she was rolled out the door and was gone. And Ryan felt more alone than he ever thought possible. ___________________________ Keywords: alternate universe, other Realities, dark fantasy romance, Finding Home series, Sophie Kisker, consensual, pregnancy romance, unexpected pregnancy, Pregnancy Romance, unexpected baby, babies twins, Master and submissive, master/slave, dominance and submission, completed series

The cult classic that predicted the rise of fake news—revised and updated for the post-Trump, post-Gawker age. Hailed as "astonishing and disturbing" by the Financial Times and "essential reading" by TechCrunch at its original publication, former American Apparel marketing director Ryan Holiday’s first book sounded a prescient alarm about the dangers of fake news. It's all the more relevant today. Trust Me, I’m Lying was the first book to blow the lid off the speed and force at which rumors travel online—and get "traded up" the media ecosystem until they become real headlines and generate real responses in the real world. The culprit? Marketers and professional media manipulators, encouraged by the toxic economics of the news business. Whenever you see a malicious online rumor costs a company millions, politically motivated fake news driving elections, a product or celebrity zooming from total obscurity to viral sensation, or anonymously sourced articles becoming national conversation, someone is behind it. Often someone like Ryan Holiday. As he explains, “I wrote this book to explain how media manipulators work, how to spot their fingerprints, how to fight them, and how (if you must) to emulate their tactics. Why am I giving away these secrets? Because I’m tired of a world where trolls hijack debates, marketers help write the news, opinion masquerades as fact, algorithms drive everything to extremes, and no one is accountable for any of it. I’m pulling back the curtain because it’s time the public understands how things really work. What you choose to do with this information is up to you.”

Second Corinthians 4:17-18 states, "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen, are eternal." The title of this book, Lord, I'm Just Tryin' to Make It to the Other Side, should be on the minds of every believer. We must understand and believe that this world is not our home. We are on our way home. Where is home? Home is where God is. Home is where Jesus is. Home is where our deceased loved ones and friends are. Home is where peace is. Home is on the other side. This book speaks about that. One day, we are going to be on "that other side." The other side where there will be no more tears, no more pain, no more struggles, and no more goodbyes and farewells. That is what Lord, I'm Just Tryin' to Get to the Other Side talks about--walking through grief and loss (temporary) yet on our way home (eternal), where God and our deceased family members are.
