Junior Lee is the kind of man who never stops moving—because when he stops, the silence gets too loud. A devoted father, overworked husband, and the one everyone leans on, Junior is suffocating beneath the weight of responsibility and expectations. But no one notices. Not his boss, who constantly demands more. Not his wife, who's grown emotionally distant. Not even his teenage children, who treat his presence like furniture—always there, always assumed.

His home is no haven, his job is a cage, and his mind is a war zone. Junior is drowning in a world that mistakes silence for strength. Every time he tries to speak up about his pain, he's met with phrases like:

\"You'll be fine.\"

\"Man up.\"

\"You don't have it that bad.\"

Junior's only escape is late-night drives and solitary walks in the woods—searching for air, for clarity, for something. But the pressure keeps building: financial strain, emotional neglect, social isolation, and untreated depression.

The story unfolds in a dual-timeline narrative: the present-day unraveling of Junior's life, and moments from his childhood that shaped his fear of vulnerability. Readers watch in slow heartbreak as Junior tries to hold it together, desperately seeking a place to breathe—only to realize the world never made space for men like him to exhale.

Until, one day, he disappears.

Dead Ends Lie!

They told you to follow the clues. You should've run instead.

When five strangers are found murdered in five days—each left at the end of a dead-end street with their eyes sewn shut and a playing card in their mouth—the media calls it madness. The police call it a pattern. Detective Rafe Mercer calls it personal.

Because he's seen this before.

Every trail leads nowhere. Every alibi feels rehearsed. Every witness vanishes the moment they speak. And just when Mercer thinks he's closing in, the killer leaves a new body—one that couldn't possibly be dead.

As the city spirals into panic, Mercer begins to suspect he's not chasing a killer. He's chasing a narrative—one written by someone who knows every trope, every twist, every move he'll make before he makes it. And worse? They're letting him get close... on purpose.

Because in this mystery, nothing is what it seems.

The suspects are acting. The clues are planted.

And the ending? You've been lied to since page one.

Dead Ends Lie! is a razor-edged psychological mystery soaked in gore, betrayal, and deception. A brutal, fast-paced thrill ride where clichÃ©s are weapons, every dead end is a trap, and the only real clue... is that you know absolutely nothing.

The High Life!

Forklifts, farts, and the fine art of getting fired... again.

Meet Randy Brennan—warehouse worker by day, certified prank legend by choice, and lifelong advocate of \"elevated living\" (he's got the ankle tattoo to prove it). With a joint in one hand and zero shame in the other, Randy doesn't just live the high life—he drives it, mostly into walls, pallets, and occasionally, his supervisor's golf cart.

Whether he's building a throne out of bubble wrap, hotboxing the loading dock, or pretending to run a forklift-driving dojo, Randy turns every shift into a chaotic carnival of stunts, schemes, and side-splitting sabotage. But just when you think he's peaked—enter Larry and Christian: two human disasters who crank the madness to maximum. And let's not forget Randy's arch-nemesis, CB, a clipboard-wielding tyrant who once lost a mustache in a glue gun incident that was definitely Randy's fault.

From forklift jousting matches to weed-infused office bake-offs, no second of this story is safe from uncontrollable laughter. With wild plot twists, absurd workplace wars, and more crashes than a toddler on espresso, The High Life! is a gut-busting, tear-streaming, laugh-until-you-pass-out rollercoaster.

Warning: Reading this in public may result in concerned looks, laughter-induced wheezing, and possibly being asked to leave.

In a world fractured by time and torn from its roots, a forgotten prince rises from the ash of an ancient volcano.

Born with walnut-brown eyes and divine 9 ether hair, Zhuo Sheng is a melanin-rich orphan with no memory of his past—until a Tibetan monk discovers him near a sacred volcano and learns the child's true identity through a spirit realm vision. He is the last heir of the Guan Yi, a powerful noble tribe from the time of Pangea—masters of martial arts, elemental magic, psychic prowess, and ancestral knowledge.

As Zhuo trains in hidden temples across the world—facing ridicule for his skin and crown-like coils—he must battle fierce opponents, unravel his tribe's forgotten history, and piece together ancient fighting arts long scattered across continents. Each temple brings a new style, new rivals, and new allies, all leading to a legendary worldwide tournament beneath the Great Wall of China.

But when the world's most elite fighters try to destroy him, a brutal attack triggers his pineal awakening—transporting him to the astral plane, where his ancestors crown him not just a fighter... but a king.

Now reborn in power, Zhuo Sheng unleashes the ancient style of NUN, reuniting the world's martial arts into a divine, unstoppable force—Baklei.

What follows is an epic, action-packed, and soul-awakening journey of identity, legacy, and reclaiming what was stolen. From the hidden mysteries of Pangea to the spiritual plane of the ancients, Medallion of the Guan Yi is a groundbreaking martial fantasy filled with divine deities, ancestral magic, jaw-dropping battles, and revelations that tie together the lost truths of every culture on Earth.

Will he become the champion the world needs—or the spark that reignites the ancient flame?

Perfect for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Afrofuturism, Naruto, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, this is a powerful new myth for a new generation.

In a time when the world seemed to be spiraling into chaos—fueled by racism, nationalism, corporate greed, and the grip of outdated ideologies—an unlikely revolution ignites from the hearts of children.

Children of the Rising Dawn is a bold, inspiring, and emotionally charged tale of unity, courage, and transformation. It follows a diverse group of young warriors—Black, White, Asian, Indigenous, Latino, Arab, and every culture between—who rise together to challenge a system designed to divide and conquer. With fearless determination, they dismantle the walls built by hate, fear, and greed. They don't just protest—they build, they create, they heal.

Armed with truth, empathy, and unstoppable vision, these young leaders face off with the powers of darkness: corrupt politicians, manipulative media, fascist leaders, and profit-hungry conglomerates. Their mission? To show the world a new way—one that honors every voice, uplifts every culture, and restores balance to a fractured planet.

This book pulses with real-life wisdom, revolutionary ideas, and unforgettable quotes like:

\"You taught us to survive in a broken world—we're here to fix it.\"

\"They sold us fear in shiny packages. We gave the world hope—unwrapped.\"

\"We are not your future. We are your mirror. And it's time you faced what you've done.\"

More than a story, Children of the Rising Dawn is a movement—a literary call-to-arms that proves the new generation isn't waiting for permission. They're rewriting the rules, replacing division with unity, and lighting the path toward true freedom and equality.

This is not a fairytale. This is the awakening. And the youth are not just the future—they are the now.

The Scarlet Robe

An Inspirational Tale of Redemption, Resilience, and Divine Revelation

He wore The Scarlet Robe—not just the garment of a preacher, but the weight of expectation, the burden of perfection. He was the voice of hope in a forgotten town, a man whose sermons could move mountains and mend broken spirits. But when a single false accusation echoed louder than his years of service, the same hands that once applauded him now pointed in condemnation.

Dragged through the mud of betrayal, his reputation shattered. His name became a whisper of scandal. They forgot he was human. They forgot grace.

Left alone, with nothing but silence and shame, he vanished—retreating not in defeat, but in search of healing. And in the darkest night of his soul, a stranger came. A man who seemed familiar... who listened without judgment... who spoke with the wisdom of the ages. And when He said, \"I still love you,\" everything changed.

That man was God.

What follows is a breathtaking journey of restoration, as the fallen preacher rises again—not to reclaim his past, but to walk into a future far greater than anything he ever imagined. In a new town, with a new voice, he becomes a symbol of grace, redemption, and human imperfection touched by divine love. His message reaches millions. He becomes a beacon.

And the town that once broke him? They came crawling back, hoping to stand in his new light. But some lights are too sacred to be shared with the ones who dimmed them.

The Scarlet Robe is a soul-shaking, tear-jerking comeback story that reminds us all:

\"Even when the world tears off your robe, Heaven still holds your crown.\"

Perfect for fans of The Shack, The Alchemist, and The Pursuit of Happiness, this book is a testimony to the enduring power of faith, forgiveness, and the God who walks beside us—even when we don't know it.

The good guy didn't just finish—he finished chosen.
