World Ender meets Ender of Worlds...

A thousand years ago, Dianna gave up her life in the deserts of Eoria to save her dying sister. She called upon anyone who would listen, not expecting a monster far worse than any nightmare to answer. Now she does what Kaden asks, even if that means securing an ancient relic from the very creatures that hunt her.

A King thought long dead and long forgotten.


In the old world his name was Samkiel. In the new world it is Liam, but one title remains true throughout time. He is the World Ender, a myth to his enemies, a savior and King to those loyal to him. After the Gods War, he locked himself away, hiding from the world. He denied his crown and responsibilities, leaving the very ones who needed him most to deal with the fallout of the death of their homeworld. Now an attack on those he holds dear sends him back to the one realm he never wished to visit again and into the sights of an enemy he thought imprisoned eons ago. Now enemies older than time must put aside their differences and work together in hopes of saving both their world and every realm in between.

Then, Samkiel, you will know this is how the world ends.

But it was not this world. No, it was mine.

It was Dianna.

The world quakes in fear as the last shred of Dianna's humanity is ripped from her. As it should. Grief consumes Dianna, burning away any semblance of good within her and threatening the budding relationship between her and Liam. Now, Liam must pull her back from the brink of complete damnation before time runs out.

Friends want to see you succeed, just never more than them.

Sadie and Willa have competed against each other on slalom courses in sunny Florida since they were kids. They were the two best skiers then, and they're the two best skiers now. The only thing that's changed is instead of playing Barbies in between runs, they now plot ways to beat the other. Turns out, there's a fine line between friends and frenemies. Now twenty-eight, at the height of their careers and shining an international spotlight on water skiing, the media-and Sadie's legendary family with strong ties to a sketchy mega church-have written the narrative of a rivalry more cutthroat than the sport has ever seen.

It would all be straightforward-who's the better skier?-if only the women didn't carry dark secrets from their pasts, both of which have the potential to thwart everything they've worked for. Add in the fact that Willa has long been in love with Sadie's husband-the third member of their childhood trio-and they're left with a combative season ahead. What no one knows, however, is that it will be far from a typical ski season, because at the end, someone will be dead and their lives will be changed forever.

THE SKIERS explores how far people are willing to go to reach the top, the complexity of female friendships, and the search for self amid incredible outside pressure.

Whether you work in the non-profit or the commercial space, the perspectives in this book provide a practical roadmap for building extraordinary partnerships . . . a must-read for all executives working in the partnership arena. - Vicki Escarra, former CMO, Delta Air Lines, and former CEO, Feeding America

We think we know how this works: Nonprofits solicit support from corporate partners and expect them to pony up checks. In turn, the company benefits from its glowing halo of generosity, right?

In Beyond Checks & Halos, Cynthia Currence debunks this limiting mindset and showcases how partner relationships can extend well beyond obvious exchanges of value. Drawing on her decades of experience and her interviews with other high-level partnership experts, she weaves stories, checklists, and insights to break down the secret sauce of partner motivation, proportional value, strategic communication, team management, courageous pivots, and more.

Through her anecdotes, learn how a cereal box generated over $1.5 million for the American Cancer Society and how a relatively small nonprofit helped Sam's Club convert tons of potential food waste into huge savings.

Not all partner prospects offer a perfect fit, though, so Currence teaches you how to define clear criteria, utilize pilot testing, and decide when to walk away. She prioritizes bottom-line business considerations and elevates the soft skills of relationship building to produce mission-aligned partnerships that can positively change the world. Currence believes the world desperately needs more transformative partnerships, and these insights will prove indispensable for those who agree.

What excites me about this book is the way Cynthia dives deep into the importance of connections in the workplace and beyond. She gives us actionable to-dos and a fresh perspective that will transform the way we see partnerships in our world. - Hala Moddelmog, former President & CEO, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and present President & CEO, Woodruff Arts Center

Jordan Toma is A Motivational Speaker, Financial Advisor and a real estate investor But it hasn't always been this easy My life has been a roller-coaster with this Learning Disability and I let it control my confidence and outlook on life for the first 18 years. I let it define me - it became a permanent label stuck to my shirt every day. I will give you an idea of what I mean. You know when you are attending a
conference and they give you a name tag to pin to your shirt? As far as I was concerned I had a permanent name tag. But mine said You're not as smart as everyone else. You can't do this. This happened to me because of my experience in school and it grew roots into everything I did. I would feel helpless in class. I struggled to understand why I couldn't just pick up information
like everyone else. I remember sitting in class telling myself I am going to try really hard to
understand everything in class today just like everyone else and be a normal student, but I just
couldn't grasp it! I was made fun of because sometimes I had to have special lessons. Other
students, even so called friends called me dumb. I let this problem control me until I graduated
in 2008. I was accepted into a life changing program called The Step Ahead.
I remember moving in filled with fear and anxiety. I went into the bathroom looked at myself in
the mirror and promised myself I was going to change. I knew I couldn't let this label last
forever. After that I started building a foundation of confidence and belief in myself brick by
brick. It has brought me to where I am today. This journey has just started for me but now I
believe it's time to help young students that can relate to my story. My objective is to create the
foundations of the belief, the confidence, the work ethic and everything that you need to become
the best you can be now and not let anything ever get in your way. Now it's time to make up for lost time.
