Blurb Blitz: 7 Steps to Clarity



This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. The author will be awarding a $10 Amazon/BN GC to a randomly drawn winner via Rafflecopter. Please click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.

The sheer amount of decisions in life can become an overwhelming burden. Sometimes we just want to know the answers to our questions. We want to know we are making the right choices. It can be hard to see the right path with the noise of the world. There are voices and media all around us, influencing everything we do. In all that noise, where is the true voice, the one that knows? You can call it God or Source or the Universe or your Higher Self, but it is contained within you. Accessing it and giving it room and silence to speak to you is the real key to achieving your best life.

In seven steps, Nicole Stephen shows the way to a happier, more peaceful daily life. To reclaim yourself, you need to shut out the "shoulds," but in order to do that, you need to notice them. Exploring the questions and challenges that Nicole includes in this book will open your eyes to the pressures that you may have been submitting to unknowingly. In clearing up the way you see the world, you can clear a path to knowing yourself, and with that true voice guiding you, you will always find the way.

Read an Excerpt

You have so much more potential than you realize. You are not your body. You are not the roles you play. You are not the jobs you hold. You are a soul having a human experience and you always have access to higher guidance. You do not have to believe this for it to be true. But you do need to fi nd a way to understand this at a deep enough level, in order to accept the magnificent implications of it. Your soul is an individuation of God. You are a part of God and God is part of you. Because of this, you have access to your higher potential in each moment. Now some people prefer not to think of God and so it is equally appropriate to think of your connection to Source, to the Universe, Life, or even your Highest Self. It matters not what your belief system is. If you are focused on the brain, then know that the brain is like a muscle that will continue to grow and get stronger as it is exercised. If you are focused on the body, know that you have only barely begun to see what your body—made up of 11 interdependent systems—is capable of. If you are focused on your senses, know that the 5 senses you use on a daily basis are just the tip of the iceberg for what is available to us—most of us know about our unrealized 6th sense, but the more likely number is 9, and some people believe there are upwards of 20 senses! Are you consciously tapping into all these potentials each day? I know I am not, but how amazing if we started to move in that direction. By expanding your view of what is possible, you will invite opportunity to use new ways of thinking and being which will create a virtuous cycle. Unfortunately, for many of us, we create a vicious cycle by using less and less of our minds, bodies, and senses, and drawing the square around us so small that we barely believe we can get through the day. This sense of limitedness is not how we are meant to live.

Release Tour: Rebel Princess


New Release Tour for Rebel Princess by
Lynn Stevens

Powered by Forever Write PR



REBEL PRINCESS by Lynn Stevens is a modern
romance retelling of the Hunchback of Notre
Dame. Fans of military romance, sweet love,
and coming of age stories will enjoy this new
adult romance. The next installment of the
Modern Princess Collection is now LIVE! 

Only on Amazon + Read for FREE on Kindle Unlimited

♛ Goodreads ➝ https://bit.ly/2xl2SBV


I was born to rebel.

Against love. Against authority. Against myself.

Perfect precision, that’s how I planned my life.
Dancing was my whole world. I wanted to be in the spotlight with all eyes on me, but recently, my heart’s pulled me in a different direction. Writing for the school paper has excited me in a way dance never has. Exposing truths trumps pirouettes and countless hours in the studio and being true to myself is more important than keeping dangerous secrets hidden.

Getting close to Colin and his lacrosse buddies
allowed me access to their secrets—but I had no
idea how deep they went. On the brink of exposing
them, I was set back. No sources, no boyfriend, and no way to get justice. No matter which angle I pursued, my story kept getting shut down.

Until I met the guy with the scars. The one who
helped me when I didn’t know what to do or who
to turn to. He came into my life out of nowhere,
saved me, and taught me to believe in myself.
Then, when I finally did, he didn’t believe in me.
I had to stand on my own two feet, fight for my
values, and for what I needed—for what I had
earned—and learn that justice always comes with
a cost.

About Lynn
Lynn Stevens flunked out of college writing her first
novel. Yes, she still has it and no, you can't read it.
Surprisingly, she graduated with honors at her third
school. A former farm girl turned city slicker, Lynn
lives in the Midwest where she drinks coffee she
can't pronounce and sips tea when she's out of
coffee. When she's out of both, just stay away.

WWY - RB banner

He never wanted a partner. And then she came along.

Wrecked With You, an all-new sexy must-read contemporary standalone romance in the Stark Security Series by New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner is available now!

WWY_ebook_1707x2500

After more than a decade chasing shadows, Antonio Santos finally has a lead on the hiding place of The Serpent, the elusive villain who kidnapped him as a child and murdered his mother and uncle. But in order for Tony to get close, he’ll need access to an exclusive private island—where he can only enter with a woman on his arm.
Antonio goes to Stark Security to call in a debt … then walks out with Emma Tucker on his arm. A loner, Antonio isn’t interested in having a partner. He just needs a female. But the striking redhead’s skills soon impress him. More than that, her lush body and beguiling self-assurance tease his senses in unanticipated ways.
A longtime operative with deadly skills, Emma resents being arm candy for someone else’s agenda. But the more she works with Antonio, the more she admires his razor sharp intelligence and formidable prowess. And when the island’s games push them over a sensual cliff, she can’t deny his talents in the bedroom, too.
As passion rises on this island playground full of lust and danger, they both fight the growing attraction between them. But with danger racing toward them from both on and off the island, they soon realize that more than their hearts are at stake. Because unless they can trust and rely on each other, they also risk losing their lives.

A straight-laced princess meets a bad boy is this modern fairy-tale retelling full of first love, music, and just a little illegal hacking.



Excerpt 
Copyright 2020 @ Lauren Helms
 I tug at my favorite blue T-shirt, slightly embarrassed. I'm normally on my A-game when it comes to women, and this one seems to be besting me. "One track mind it seems," I mutter. "So it seems. By the looks of it, you were doing something you probably shouldn't be doing." She looks almost too innocent to trust, so I can't help flipping the switch on my other skill. A slow grin, one I've been told countless times is sexy as sin, slides across my face. Cocking my head slightly, I wink at her. Lowering my voice, just slightly, I say, "How's your day going?" She stares. Her eyebrows pinch together, and she cocks her head slightly. "Did you just smolder?" My face falls, and I feel ... out of place. Am I in an alternate universe? Since when did my smolder not work on the opposite sex? Not only did it not affect the pixie, but she also called me out on it. Is my smolder broken? My thoughts are interrupted by an amused giggle. "Let me guess, that usually works on the ladies?" "Yeah, I think I might be broken." I can't keep the pout out of my tone. More giggles from Blondie. "How about you try introducing yourself? Maybe I have to get to know you before the smolder is effective on me." Uh, maybe she's right. I'm going to have to work my magic later on some random chick to ensure I haven't lost my smolder mojo. Shaking off the confusion, I get my head back into the game. "Hi, I'm Ryker Stone."
